Study of Bush's psyche touches a nerve
Julian Borger in Washington

The Guardian
A study funded by the US government has concluded that
conservatism can be explained psychologically as a set of
neuroses rooted in "fear and aggression, dogmatism and the
intolerance of ambiguity".
As if that was not enough to get Republican blood boiling, the
report's four authors linked Hitler, Mussolini, Ronald Reagan
and the rightwing talkshow host, Rush Limbaugh, arguing they all
suffered from the same affliction.
All of them "preached a return to an idealised past and condoned
inequality".
Republicans are demanding to know why the psychologists behind
the report, Political Conservatism as Motivated Social
Cognition, received $1.2m in public funds for their research
from the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes
of Health.
The authors also peer into the psyche of President George Bush,
who turns out to be a textbook case. The telltale signs are his
preference for moral certainty and frequently expressed dislike
of nuance.
"This intolerance of ambiguity can lead people to cling to the
familiar, to arrive at premature conclusions, and to impose
simplistic cliches and stereotypes," the authors argue in the
Psychological Bulletin.
One of the psychologists behind the study, Jack Glaser, said the
aversion to shades of grey and the need for "closure" could
explain the fact that the Bush administration ignored
intelligence that contradicted its beliefs about Iraq's weapons
of mass destruction.
The authors, presumably aware of the outrage they were likely to
trigger, added a disclaimer that their study "does not mean that
conservatism is pathological or that conservative beliefs are
necessarily false".
Another author, Arie Kruglanski, of the University of Maryland,
said he had received hate mail since the article was published,
but he insisted that the study "is not critical of conservatives
at all". "The variables we talk about are general human
dimensions," he said. "These are the same dimensions that
contribute to loyalty and commitment to the group. Liberals
might be less intolerant of ambiguity, but they may be less
decisive, less committed, less loyal."
But what drives the psychologists? George Will, a Washington
Post columnist who has long suffered from ingrained
conservatism, noted, tartly: "The professors have ideas; the
rest of us have emanations of our psychological needs and
neuroses."

Bush is more connected and powerful than people think. Remember, as dunb as he usually sounds, he still got to be president without even truly winning the election (thanks to his brother Jeb in Florida). The Bush family itself has been a very powerful family in American politics. It goes all the way back too Prescott Bush (George W.'s grandfather) who was a Skull and Bones member along with Henry Luce, the founder of Time/Life magazine.
George Bush Sr. followed in his father's footsteps and also became a Skull and Bonesman and he eventually became CIA Director (ironically when crack flooded urban areas in Chicago, New York, and especially South Central Los Angeles). Of Course Bush Sr. went on to become president.
His son George Bush Jr. who's now president owes a lot of his stature to his father who got him out of many jams back in the 70's. One of which was Bush Jr. driving drunk in 1976. Another was Bush Jr. getting caught doing cocaine. These stories were covered up pretty well, even while Bush Jr. was running for president (a time when any dirt on you comes out of nowhere).
Another powerful Bush connection is with the Bin-Laden family. Bush Sr. was on the Board of Directors of a firm called the Carlyle Group (the company that makes the anti-serum for anthrax and made tens of millions after 9/11 for defense contracts). Bin Laden Sr. was also on the Board of Directors of the same firm and had the controlling shares of stock. James Baker was also connected with Carlyle Group. So the seeds of power run deep and I'm just scratching the surface.
Back in 1992, Bush Sr. talked said "we're on the verge of a New World Order", but Novus Ordo Seclorum (New World Order) has been on the dollar bill for over a hundred years. The Great Seal (Novus Ordo Seclorum and Annuit Oecepts) on the dollar bill wasn't revealed until 1935 though. So the masonic/Skull and Bones connection involving the dollar bill and the Bush presidency is no coincidence.
