Is it possible for a psychopath to be 'personable,' like the great American author Kurt Vonnegut Jr. said, before he died?

If you felt you could sit down and have a beer with a guy who calls himself the 'decider', would you ignore evidence that he authorized the mass murder of 3000 of your citizens, to garner support for wars, any wars, and missile defense systems your country cannot afford, and doesn't need?

Would you ignore the hundreds of thousands of other deaths caused (or justify them), the millions of refugees created (and more enemies), the billions of dollars of debt caused by unnecessary wars?
Would you attack people who pointed out that this guy is a psychopath, because you feel you could have a beer with him?

Yes, every one that met Ted Bundy thought he was a great guy. Personable and friendly and very intelligent.

I know what you're talking about, and you have to consider that there are two sides to every situation even if you think you're right with out a doubt. I could go back and change your words just a little and the whole question would take the other side of the argument.
Can a single man possibly bare the weight of a whole country?
Is it possible for a leader to have a job well over 80 hours a week and still take the criticism no mater what choice he makes?
If you felt you could sit down and have a beer with a guy who is called a murderer, would you ignore murderous crimes that his enemies have committed, to garner support for wars, any wars, and, sometimes, no reason at all?
Would you ignore the hundreds of thousands lives saved and the economic prosperity caused by necessary wars?
Would you attack people who defend this guy because they respect him, because you feel so strongly against him?
I know it's not quite the same thing, but you get the point right?
To answer your questions: yes, yes, no, no, no; but we all know that your not really asking us a question. You are trying to demonstrate your views.

A killer can smile and tell jokes. The answers to your other questions is: No (I wouldn't like to sit down and have beer with such a person, I would not ignore the evidence and deaths, and I would definitely wouldn't attack people who pointed out that tis guy is a psychopath). And the conclusion is, that both G.W. "Lips" Bullshit and Penis J. Clinton are psychopaths who try, God forbid, to hunt the grate psychiatrist and freedom fighter, Dr. Karadzic, and General Mladic, and bring them to INJUSTICE in the Hague.

One should differentiate between a killer and a murderer.
Not all killers are psychopathic murderers.
Yes, psychopaths can be charming, unfortunately for their victims.
If I sat down for a beer with the "decider", I wouldn't ignore the fact that he is evil, but I would want him to tell me whom he works for. Certainly not the American people! He's working for those who benefit from war--in this case, the Zionists (Iraq is their enemy) and oil companies; in Afghanistan, those who profit from the drug trade--thanks to U.S. efforts, more opium poppies are being cultivated, than previously.
Those who benefit from war don't care about the cost, as long as they profit...

Most mass murderers are congenial and personable with good personalities. They can also look very good. This combination is one of the things that make them so very dangerous.
They are like the serpent in the Garden of Eden. It is so tragic that people, especially young people, cannot realize that. I think a national campaign should be put in place advising people of these demons as well as a national campaign geared toward children making them aware that they cannot tell a pervert by the way they look.

Bush is obviously deluded...but to some he is personable. I think he is actually mentally ill... and caused more harm than most death row inmates.
