Subject: RE: BS: Cindy Sheehan: A Mother's Love
Other mothers, fathers, and relatives whose sons or daughters died in Iraq have aslo joined with Cindy in Crawford, Texas. They are still waiting to ask George Bush why their children died in this preemptive war.

Could it be because they are victims of Pres Bush, who is at present the world's most powerful serial bully?

That's an excellent article from the UK about "serial bullies", imo. I'd like to make it required reading for all voters before they cast their ballots, nad for all "seekers" considering embarking on an unfamiliar 'spiritual path' under the wing of a so-called 'guru' too. From the article:

"Projection

Bullies project their inadequacies, shortcomings, behaviours etc on to other people to avoid facing up to their inadequacy and doing something about it (learning about oneself can be painful), and to distract and divert attention away from themselves and their inadequacies. Projection is achieved through blame, criticism and allegation; once you realise this, every criticism, allegation etc that the bully makes about their target is actually an admission or revelation about themselves. This knowledge can be used to perceive the bully's own misdemeanours; for instance, when the allegations are of financial or sexual impropriety, it is likely that the bully has committed these acts; when the bully makes an allegation of abuse (such allegations tend to be vague and non-specific), it is likely to be the bully who has committed the abuse. When the bully makes allegations of, say, "cowardice" or "negative attitude" it is the bully who is a coward or has a negative attitude."

Replace the word "bully" with Pres Bush, and "other people" with his various targets (Iraqis, Koreans etc). I'm sure you'll see what I mean!
