Read about Dubya's recent breakdown here, in which he beats his chest and chants "I am the President!". Maybe someday we'll read that he had himself injected with amphetamines and kept suicide pills handy, too. Bunker mentality will do that to a guy.
Rather than offer my own opinion about our Commander-Guy in Chief and his lack of tolerance for dissension, I will quote a former President, Theodore Roosevelt.
“Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President or any other public official save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country.”
“To announce there must be no criticism of the President, and to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, it is morally treasonous to the American public.”
