There's a pretty funny (and sad) "open letter" in BuzzFlash by a clinical psychologist, offering her services to King George II:
Problems with the truth are also in evidence, as in such statements as "I am a man of peace", "I am a uniter (sic) not a divider" and "I’m hopeful that we can avoid a war." None of these statements enjoy the support of your behavior. While a certain amount of lying is expected from politicians, yours seems to be well in excess of the norm.Yesterday I spoke about religion in class, and how often presidents invoke God in their speeches, prompting one student to say, "If he's a religious man then why he is dropping bombs on people?" So I blurted, in mock confusion, "But... but... he's a man of peace. He said so. He said, 'I am a man of peace. I pray for peace.' That's what he said." That got some laughs.
