Recently, as President Bushâ??s poll numbers have dropped, I have noticed some alarming cult-like behavior among his hardcore supporters. In particular, when challenged by harsh facts about their Dear Leader, Bushists - like Moonies - reflexively answer allegations based on hard cold facts with nonsense and practiced nonsequitors - assertions that they sincerely seem to believe but that make absolutely no sense to others.
This made me wonder - is Bushism a cult?"
As the article asserts, a cult is driven by a "leader" whose own doctrines are unquestioned by his devotees.
In the most destructive cults, such as Jim Jones' People's Temple, the leader himself is deranged.
The following statement from the Bushling indicates that he has begun to blur the distinction between himself and the Deity:
"God loves you, and I love you. And you can count on both of us as a powerful message that people who wonder about their future can hear. It's a powerful message. And it's a message that a lot of people can spread."
The fact that this and similar statements remain on the White House website show that his closest advisors are desensitized to their tin idol's continued mental deterioration.
Such posts on a Government website give further credence to other reports of the Bushling's hallucinations. \
