Today the BBC reported that Howard Shippman, the UK doctor turned mass-murders was found hanging in his jail cell. A commentator described Shippman as being a kind of King Rat, wanting to dominate and control his victims. His suicide was not surprising to some as it was the ultimate act of control in the end.
What place does this have in a political blog diary? I was just wondering about the parallels between a type like Shippman and Bush, who seems to govern via dominance and control.
Just an idle thought.
