Somerfrost,
Please excuse my double post.
Your questions got me thinking.

I know you have a background in psychology and counseling.
So, if you don't mind my asking (and I only ask because I'm somewhat analytical), do you see familiar patterns between Ann, Bush, domestic violence, and other situations....?

The pattern:
1) Tension building (name calling, saber rattling, threat behaviors)
2) Outbreak of violence (invasion, aggression)
3) Period of remorse (excuse making, forgiveness seeking, promising to change...honeymoon coming)
4) Repeat steps 1-3...endlessly

Thanks for your anticipated response.

DTS
