Shiite cleric wants Bush checked by shrink (Before Election)

Beirut, , May. 11 (UPI) -- A senior Shiite cleric Tuesday said U.S. President George W. Bush should undergo a psychiatric exam before the November presidential election.

The Iran-backed Sheik Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah, spiritual guide for many Lebanese Shiites, told American journalists in Beirut, "looking at the mentality of President Bush who considers him the second messiah in the world, one cannot expect him to act reasonably.

3. I shouldn't have left this paragraph out
The man has been presenting himself as a messenger from God with a mission to rule the world and spread the values he believes in ... That is why I suggest to have him examined by psychiatrists, with all due respect, because we respect sick people," Fadlallah said.

5. Totally agree!
All our leaders should have to undergo an psyche exam as part of the election process. This way no one can claim discrimination.
