George W Bush, Pathological Liar Author?

Former president, GW Bush has written (? Okay-ee) a book. This seems par for the course of former presidents. "Setting the record straight" and all. The problem is GW has always seemed to have a problem telling the truth, along with a problem remembering what he has said in the past, since he so often contradicts himself.

He also uses "my advisers told me," "my lawyers said," "we all decided," "along with other countries," in front of his biggest debacles and acts of poor judgement. His blame game continues. I base my opinions on his book, from his interviews about it, excerpts read, and what I can get from Amazon's peek. I doubt I will read the book because I can see where he is going: same good ol' boy, cowboy, laugh-at-his-ignorance, retelling of his 8 years in office.

As a psychological joy ride of one man of power's mind, it might be a kick, but only under the assumption he really WROTE it, and it was not run past a factory of decontaminates.

It is good to hear him admit to thinking water boarding, that illegal torturing of detainees, is A-OK by him. Again, against, advisers and all research that such torture provides NOTHING that might help us gather useful information, but in fact puts ALL our troops in harm's way, GW Bush thinks it was great!

And his claiming we just HAD to stop Iraq's build up of weapons of mass destruction, which he admitted during his later term years that he had been 100% wrong about, blaming bad intel, now he is back supporting his decision to shock (no shock, he had talked about doing it for months, so the "evil-doers" had time to split) and awe-shucks the innocents of Iraq in his book. If it were any other president, I would be thinking: "Are you crazy?"

In the case of former president GW Bush, I lived those years and I already know that answer.
What I still can't figure out is if he is a pathological liar or just a boy that never grew up? For all his trashing on "liberal" entertainers, he seems most hurt by Kanye West's suggestion that Bush might be a tad racist. (Katrina and all) REALLY? SERIOUSLY?

I think I will wait for all the player's stories to come out about the disaster that was the GW Bush presidency. Then I'll try to piece together some particle of truth, because we need to learn from our mistakes (not that I ever voted for him or supported him, he completely lost any respect I would otherwise give to any president, when he all but gave the finger to the U.N.) and the Bush years had plenty of them.

But, like reading the 9-11 commission's report, I will read them only during the day--too scary otherwise.
