mish, I would guess and hope it is exaggerated truth, because we know it's not total hype. The President certainly has a problem separating reality from fantasy. He thinks he's been to war. He thinks he captured Saddam Hussein and took his pistol as a trophy. He thinks he lived on a ranch before the election. Etc. But hiring somebody to play act President while Cheney calls the shots has its risks, and he may have found the role too boring and limiting. One clue that it could be worse is that the Republicans always attack Democrats where they, the GOP, are weakest. And last week the orders came down to all propaganda sources to question Al Gore's sanity. So, if the public wakes up and finds out that Bush is not just eccentric, but clinically ga-ga, they can claim that it is just a reaction to their attack on a former Democratic candidate. Before that, they attacked Kerry on his war record, where Bush has no record at all, and even invented a group of political hacks called the Swift Boat Veterans to pretend that they knew something about service. The GOP has the clever survival techniques of a nest of cockroaches and the "attack first where we are weakest" concept is brilliant and seems to be working on the US public.
