Dr. Gilbert,

You have been quoted as saying «It was literally a tongue-in-cheek way of getting attention.»

If truth be told, isn’t what actually motivated Lakehead University, and you in particular, to belittle George W Bush a form of compensation neurosis?

«Compensation neurosis:
The development of symptoms of neurosis believed to be motivated by the desire for, and hope of, monetary or interpersonal gain. “Striving for superiority” over other people represents a mistaken compensatory
striving to relieve a haunting feeling of
inferiority.»

Making up for shortcomings, hmmm?
