FYI

You knew in your hearts it's true and now science proves it.
Seriously, this is not from 'The Onion'.

**Psych study proves Bush supporters are certifiable.**

Lohse, a social work master^Òs student at Southern Connecticut State University, says he has proven what many
progressives have probably suspected for years: a direct link between mental illness and support for President
Bush.

Lohse says his study is no joke. The thesis draws on a survey of 69 psychiatric outpatients in three Connecticut
locations during the 2004 presidential election. Lohse^Òs study, backed by SCSU Psychology professor Jaak Rakfeldt
and statistician Misty Ginacola, found a correlation between the severity of a person^Òs psychosis and their
preferences for president: The more psychotic the voter, the more likely they were to vote for Bush.

This is real, from the New Haven CT 'Advocate' newspaper:

Another note, from the article:
"Lohse says the trend isn^Òt unique to Bush: A 1977 study by Frumkin & Ibrahim found psychiatric patients
preferred Nixon over McGovern in the 1972 election."

The takeaway line: "The more psychotic the voter, the more likely they were to vote for Bush." So true, so true.

So, what's the recommended treatment for Psychotic Conservatism? Medication? Mass lobotomies? Forced viewing of
Michael Moore's films and interviews until total Conservative breakdown occurs? Hmm... I know, make them go to
Iraq and not come home until they fix it!

Happy, Healthy, Holidaze
