It's past time to invoke the 25th Amendment

This president has 'jumped the shark' one to many times.  

He refuses to make a public statement or to allow his Attorney General to make a public statement on the definition of torture.

Torture.  Unfuckingbelivable.  In These United States.  In the 21st Century.  We are having a national debate on whether or not our government, and it's proxies, our national military branches, are allowing and suborning torture.

It's time to remove this egomaniacal despot from office.  Before he drags us all over the breach and into, by his very own words, WWIII.

I've been home the past week, sick myself and now caring for my dying mother.

I haven't seen president Bush on television recently, and was astonished to watch, during a new conference, him chuckle and smirk his way through a tirade during which he invoked the phrase "World War Three". More than once.

If you have the chance, watch a video of this, you will understand my concern.

I work in a medical clinic, where a number of our patients are mentally ill, or have mental deficiencies.  You can often tell these patients by their facial expressions and the look in their eyes.

This president has the face of a man who is no longer in control of his facilties.  This president has the eyes of a man who should not be allowed to manage a ice cream shop, much less the most powerful nation on the face of the earth.  

This president should be relieved of his duties under the terms of the fourth section of the 25th Amendment to the US Constitution.

He is a danger to the world. That is the simple truth.

Even as an atheist, I have to say, "God help us all".
