[George W.] Bush isn't a moron, he's a cunning sociopath.

—Bev Conover
George W. Bush is evil. He is a terrorist. He is evil. He is arrogant. And he is out of control.

—Juliann Malveaux
On January 20th, 2009, if George Bush and Dick Cheney are not appropriately held to account [through impeachment] this Administration will hand off a toolbox with more powers than any President has ever had, more powers than the founders could have imagined. And that box may be handed to Hillary Clinton or it may be handed to Mitt Romney or Barack Obama or someone else. But whoever gets it, one of the things we know about power is that people don't give away the tools.

—John Nichols
[George W.] Bush must be stopped now, before he sets the world aflame.

—Bev Conover
I think we're at risk with our democracy. I think we're dealing with the most closed, imperialistic, nastiest administration [George W. Bush] in living memory. They even put Richard Nixon to shame.

—Gen. Wesley Clark
I think as far as the adverse impact on the nation around the world, this [George W. Bush] administration has been the worst in history. The overt reversal of America's basic values as expressed by previous administrations, including those of George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon and others, has been the most disturbing to me. We now have endorsed the concept of pre-emptive war where we go to war with another nation militarily, even though our own security is not directly threatened, if we want to change the regime there or if we fear that some time in the future our security might be endangered. But that's been a radical departure from all previous administration policies.

—Jimmy Carter
[George W.] Bush's most dangerous legacy is the erosion of America's vaunted traditions of civil rights and liberties.

—Achal Mehra
You no longer have a Constitution in this land. The most vile criminal people to ever walk the face of this earth now reside in Washington D.C. And they are your masters! And Jesus Christ is going to bless this land? Don't you even consider it!

—Louis Beam and James Wickstrom
[George W. Bush] has claimed the authority to tell Congress they don't have any right to know what he's doing with relation to spying on American citizens, using that information in any way that he wants in contradiction to a federal statute called the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. He's claimed authority to say he can kidnap people, throw them into dungeons abroad, dump them out into Siberia without any political or legal accountability. These are standards that are totally anathema to a democratic society devoted to the rule of law.

—Bruce Fein
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.

—Meister Eckhart
Impeachment is not a remedy for private wrongs; it's a method of removing someone whose continued presence in office would cause grave danger to the nation.

—Charles Ruff
I call [George W. Bush] the feel bad president, because he's all about punishment and death. It would be a grave mistake to just play him for laughs.

—Mark Crispin Miller
[In fascist regimes] The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

—Dr. Lawrence Britt
It is not the lie that passeth through the mind, but the lie that sinketh in, and settleth in it, that doth the hurt.

—Francis Bacon
[George W. Bush is] a very angry guy, a hostile guy. He's much like Nixon. So they're [his handlers] very, very careful to choreograph every move he makes. They don't want him anywhere near protestors, because he would lose his temper.

—Mark Crispin Miller
President George W. Bush has become dangerously steeped in ideas of Armageddon, the Apocalypse, an imminent war with Satanic forces in the Middle East, and an urgency to construct an American theocracy to fulfill God's end-of-days plan, according to close observers.
Historians and investigative journalists following the 'end-time Christian' movement have grown alarmed at the impact it may be having on Bush's Middle East policies, including the current war in Iraq, the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian crisis, the strife in Lebanon and the administration's repeated attempts to find a cause for war against Iran.

—J. P. Briggs II, Ph.D., and Thomas D. Williams
The testimony unmistakably revealed — at the highest levels of the Bush administration — a callous disregard in handling sensitive national security information and a disposition to smear critics of the war in Iraq.

—Nancy Pelosi (06/03/2007)
Bush is not an imbecile. He's not a puppet. I think that Bush is a sociopathic personality. I think he's incapable of empathy. He has an inordinate sense of his own entitlement, and he's a very skilled manipulator. And in all the snickering about his alleged idiocy, this is what a lot of people miss.

—Mark Crispin Miller
Someday, when historians consider how this president [George W. Bush] and his associates sought to overrun American values, traditions, and statutes in pursuit of absolute power, they will praise the officers and politicians who resisted those illegitimate maneuvers.

—Joe Conason
George W. Bush has practiced policies that have not improved the United States or the world. In fact, the opposite has happened. The world is a less safe place to live and many people throughout the globe who once admired the United States now have a negative and even a hostile view toward us because of the president's policies. So, move over Harding and Nixon and Tyler and Taylor because George W. Bush will be joining your ranks in 2009. In fact, he may become the leading candidate for America's Worst President.

—Robert Guttman
