Dance star Moby has blasted US President George W Bush as a "nut job" and is delighted a string of scandals are hitting the leader's Republican party.

Staunch Democrat Moby finds it easy to believe news reports alleging Bush decided to invade Iraq because God ordered him to.

And the hitmaker is pleased Bush's closest political advisor, Karl Rove, and US Vice-President Dick Cheney's chief of staff Lewis 'Scooter' Libby, may soon be indicted in connection with leaking the identity of a covert CIA officer.

Moby is similarly glad with the scandal in Texas surrounding former US House Of Representatives Republican leader Tom DeLay, who has been subpoenaed in an inquiry into possible illegal campaign contributions.

Writing on his website, Moby says: "So apparently George W Bush told a Palestinian leader that 'God told him to invade Iraq.' The White House are denying this, but somehow it rings true.

"George W Bush is a nut job. An out of touch, inept, ill-informed, nut job. The Republicans are falling apart.

"I just hope that there's nothing dangerous left of them after they fall apart.

"And I hope that Karl Rove and 'Scooter' Libby and Tom DeLay and all of the other Republicans who have been (or are about to be) indicted get nice cell-mates when they go to jail. The White House is being run by inept and delusional fools."
