Having emotions is not "weak" [View All]

[mudesi]

I am disturbed by the number of people who think that it is unacceptable for a human being to exhibit emotions. These people need to see a psychiatrist as soon as possible, because they apparently have so much bottled up that at any moment they may overcompensate.

I want to make it abundantly clear to everyone here that those who do not have emotions are the ones unfit to lead. George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Saddam Hussein, Hitler, Stalin, Kim Jong Il. These are people who are incapable of feeling.

Incapable of feeling compassion, shame, or caring for other human beings. Sociopaths.

This post is not about Hillary Clinton or whether or not she faked crying to score political points. This post is about the fact that there are people here who still believe in the idiotic notion that leaders ought to be robots, that people who have feelings can't make tough decisions (which is exactly the opposite, in fact), that the President must be "tough".

Take a good look at the current president to see the consequences of such moronic cowboy mentality.

Grow up, America.
