paper bush

Did G.W. Bush really refer to the U.S. Constitution as "just a (bleep)ing piece of paper"?

2011-11-18T05:18:00.000-08:00

"I don't give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I'm the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."

"Mr. President," one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."

"Stop throwing the Constitution in my face," Bush screamed back. "It's just a goddamned piece of paper!"

My link is below. They reported it first. Consider the source, though...

Look at the link and decide for your self. If you type the main phrase into google and search, other sites will probably come up as well. Who knows?
Reply:I cannot verify the validity of that quote, but for our sakes, I pray (and I don't do that very often, kids) to God that he did NOT.

He did, however, say a lot of other things that just make me shake my head.

If you see a newspaper article on George Bush lying again, would you be tempted to use it as toilet paper?

2011-11-18T05:17:00.006-08:00

that's the first thing I'd think of

If you see a newspaper article on George Bush lying again, would you be tempted to use it as toilet paper?
Hahahahaha

Good question.

Actually I prefer something a little softer.

When I do see him I think of it in the context of his days as President Jackass are numbered.
Reply:Any newspaper article about GWB is not worthy of toilet paper it would just clog the toilet anyway as there'd be so much of it.

What did Bush mean when he said of the constitution"its just a god damn piece of paper"?

2011-11-18T05:17:00.005-08:00

A specific reference to your quote please so we can look at where you get your info.

EDIT:

Both links are the same articles quoting un-named people that "claim" to have heard the president say it. You would think with all the Bush hatred that is going on, someone would want to take credit for reporting this statement, and would go to a larger news outlet (CBS, ABC, NBC).

What did Bush mean when he said of the constitution"its just a god damn piece of paper"?
He meant that it was interfering with the policies that he wanted to enact.
Reply:It doesn't stand in his way.
Reply:I believe that this is a Lie! So there is no meaning to respond to. If not, then show proof of your statement!
Reply:Even the conservative papers can't deny the fact that he did say it:

http://www.theconservativevoice.com/arti...

Thanks for asking this question. As I'm reading the answers, I realized that even his supporters find this statement to be unconscionable!

I guess many people miss the news and Bush supporters support him without following what he does and says. Sad.

Here is another source, in case anyone thinks the asker pulled this out of his hat. Here's a Constitutional Law expert speaking of this and other instances that make our founding fathers turn in their graves:

Reply:It meant that he was unable to read what was on it.
Reply:Did you get this out of a rag like the National Enquirer?

Please name a source other than capitalhillblue. I read it and it seems like along the lines of the National Enquirer. Is there not a mainstream (liberal) media source? If there is not, I have to say that this is not true.
Reply:It requires him to maintain a pretense of acting within the law. That can be very frustrating for a " decider " .
Reply:And because this article on this site said this it's true????? I don't believe a word of it!!!
Reply:Did he REALLY say that????? He's really gone crazy now, hasn't he? If he did, he meant that he is not all that concerned about following it and protecting it, which is in violation of his oath that he took when being sworn into office.

But I don't believe he said that. He's dumb, but not that dumb.

O.K. I went to the articles, which are basically identical. But they make me believe that the asshole really DID say that! It's amazing that he was able to survive his Presidency with a statement like that! I guess that hush hushed it quite well enough so that it really wouldn't get out into the mainstream press. Lucky bastard.
Reply:Well, I have never heard him say that; give source please.
Reply:Um, you would need to show us your proof of him saying that. I'm sure you've got a link, right?

EDIT- Okay, first off, capitolhillblue is the biggest left wing, propaganda rag on the net. It targets the weak minded that need no proof, that are so full of hate they'll hang on to anything negative thrown out there about President Bush. There are absolutely no sources named just he said he said and so on and so forth. Where is a LEGITIMATE, reliable news source???

EDIT- What part of LEGITIMATE and RELIABLE do you not understand in regard to news sources???
Reply:This was way back in 2005. But it is good to be reminded occasionally just what a dictator is living in the White House and how glad we should all be to eventually get rid of him. Pity it won't be through an impeachment.
Reply:I didn't know he said this - do you have a source you can email me? thx.

I appreciate the link - I'm not familiar with this publication tho - will research further on my own ---- again, thanks !
Reply:Find me *one* CREDIBLE source, and I'll pay you. The ONLY mention of this I've found in the MSM is a clip on Olbermann where he's bleating about it - but he does not offer one shred of evidence.

Capital Blue is the rantings of ONE man - and an excellent example of the power of the Internet. AND it's all hearsay - which isn't even admissible in a court of law.

I can start BS, too - should I do a blog about Pelosi using the Koran for toilet paper? Same principal, Skippy. Surely if you're in college, your professors have talked to you about CREDIBLE sources.
Reply:He meant it was getting in the way of the programs he wanted to initiate to guard against terrorist attacks. He should have had more regard for using the correct channels for his programs and a whole lot of people would have had more faith in his judgment and would have probably enjoyed more support from the American people. He usurped way too much power for the executive branch that seemed to literally obliterate the power of Congress for several years. He didn't appear to regard the rights of Americans in his fervor to prevent further attacks. In my opinion, both are very important.
Reply:Give me a break!!! You are being a left extremist to come on here and say this stuff!
Reply:The same thing the democrats mean without saying anything, but through their actions.

Yes HE DID SAY IT!!!! if you ppl had memory retention longer than two seconds, you would have remembered. Or at least start paying a tad bit more attention.

Reply:funny how people of accuse him of this. Then in the same breathe accuse him of appointing strict constructionists as judges. Strict construction in the interpretation of the Constitution.

The Left believes if they scream loud enough long enough maybe some of their lies will be believed; even if the contradict each other
Reply:Well that just proves that he doesn't and never has cared about this country and the principles in which it was founded upon.
Reply:you have to up better proof than that. I've talked to people that have seen big foot and I certainly will not take anyone's word for proof.
Reply:I doubt he said that, let's see a link.
Reply:Surely even your wit and knowledge can provide proof od this?
Reply:When did he say that? Please provide evidence.

Those are both the same article (an unsupported opinion piece). In reading them I have a hard time believing that anything in them is accurate. Please provide evidence from an actual news source someone might have heard of. Not just something written by an unknown author on a backwater extremist website.
Reply:He agrees with it.
Reply:i think he said that of the government bonds issued so he could borrow from the social securtiy trust funds. I think of the constitution he said "its not a suicide pact".
Reply:yes he said that because it gets in his way of some of the stuff that he would like to do but cannot because it would be unconstitutional or illegal to do under the constitution.
Reply:Basically that the content and guidelines within the Constitution have no meaning to him... that he can do whatever he wants with no accountability.... as he has done for the past ~7 years.

His statement also reflects him saying, "I'm a liar and have no intentions of honoring my oath to office where UNDER GOD I swore to protect the Constitution."

NOTE: I'm amazed at how many ppl don't already know about this. He made this statement a few years ago.
Reply:He is thinking that the Philadelphia Convention didn't know that 220 years later people would be taking advantage of too many rights.
Reply:Bush was angry after 9/11. Many have said his Patriot Act violates the Constitution. That was Bush's response.

Why do Bush lovers always bring up the constitution? It's just a god damn piece of paper!!?

It's hilarious that most conservative responders don't know where the quote you gave came from.

Come on righties..... take a guess who called the constitution "just a god damn piece of paper."

OK, I'll even give you a hint.

Move to France. You make me ill.
Reply:it is the original laws on which we were founded, its tells the basic rights and lack of rights since the beginning of this country, unfortunately now people are interpreting it differently from eachother to get what they want. many o the problmes we have now are not issues the founding fathers would have thought of back then. thats why theres so much controversy over the constitution.
Reply:You clearly are a moron. With the Constitution which included the Bill of Rights when passed, you are guaranteed free speech, etc.

It is in the Declaration of Independance that states some of these rights which are unalienable and are "God given".

And idiots who want the protection and the right are the same people who deny that God exists who is the very being that you say gave you these rights.

Therefore with God, you have no rights!

Without these rights you wouldn't even be allowed to be a moron!
Reply:With that mentality, you make it apparent that you have no concept of the history or value of the constitution. Perhaps you should do a little research on the constitution and you find that that very "piece of paper" gives you the rights you have to day. If you are truly ignorant of the subject, educate yourself. However, if you are stupid that's another story!!
Reply:Oh, man. You are being ridiculous.
Reply:Why do you believe things the Liberals say?

According to the Liberals the rights of CHristians and Jews need to be restricted but the rights of Muslims need to be increased to a point that Non-Muslims are to be required to read Koran in the same Schools where Bibles and Torahs are to be banned.
Reply:What does that have to do with being a Bush lover? (btw-I'm not one them either)

If Bush proved that you can rig the electoral voting system, should we go back to paper ballots?

2011-11-18T05:17:00.003-08:00

Who cares if we have to round up a million volunteers to count the votes.....at least it would be honest.

If Bush proved that you can rig the electoral voting system, should we go back to paper ballots?
We should certainly not allow paperless voting, but we needn't go back to pure paper.

Scanned votes would be fine, since the marked ballots would be available for recount.

Ditto machines that provide paper backup.

The other thing we need to do is an amendment to eliminate the Electoral College, which allowed him to steal 2000 -- "All we need to do is prevent Democrats in Florida from voting, and we've won!"

I think we also need some system in place for when there wasn't in fact a real election, where voters were allowed to vote.

Saying, "Well, they clearly stole it, but there's no choice but to swear him in" is sheer insanity.

And that's what we've got.
Reply:It is so sad that people do not understand the electoral college. Just because you do not agree with the results, it does not mean it was rigged or whatever other crap you want to come up with. You claim Dems were turned away from the polls, I can also say Repubs were turned away as well. Report It

Reply:There is TONS of evidence of rigging -- Republicans removed Democrats in Florida from the voter lists. It happened. I know your side doesn't approve of fact, evidence, or reality, but some of us do. Report It

Reply:Yes, you can SAY Republicans were turned away, but there is no reason or evidence behind it.

Republicans ran Florida's system, and removed Democrats for having part of their names in common with people who died or were in prison, and for other bogus reasons. Report It

Reply:The Dems are traditionally the vote cheaters.

Reply:A paper trail is different from paper ballots and I have so few trees to hug.
Reply:But he wasn't proved to have rigged anything was he. Get over it. this from someone who believes in a party that wants people in prison who have been found guilty of major crimes to be able to vote. What ever happended to that liberal who was caught with a voting machine in the trunk of his car down in Florida in the 2000 election. I'll tell you not a damn thing lol.
Reply:Yeah sure, because 1,000,000 people can be counted on to be honest. Furthermore, that is how we do it now. Volunteers at local precincts counting paper ballots and the talley on various voting booths. Did you really think George Bush sat in a room all by himself and counted the 40+million ballots cast?
Reply:What an in accurate question. Please name the court case that proved that Bush rigged an electoral voting system? On the contrary Bush v Gore (2000) proved that the Constitution works, and our system works. Small states and rural areas should not be left to the whims of urban America. Our founding fathers knew it, why don't you?
Reply:Except for the fact that Bush never proved as such.
Reply:You forgot to check your conspricy theorist notebook again. The Dems claim violations in Ohio but we still use paper ballots. By the way all those claims were proven false.
Reply:wow, really can I see the proof of your idiotic accusations?
Reply:Are you sure your screen name is not Dumb Betty, as even with paper ballots, we would still rely on the electoral college to choose our President.
Reply:Well, when Bush does that, I may agree. He hasn't so all the what if waste of time questions are really a waste, don't you think.
Reply:why do democrats only speak of voter fraud when republicans WIN elections...never when they do...hmmm...
Reply:OMG you Lefties are just Nuts!!!! Rigging the election hmmm lets talk about that for a min shall we. Nancy Pelosi when does she want an end to the war or a pull out date?? Hmmm fall 2008?? Isnt that during an election?? Rigging hey I smell something funny and it isnt fish. Its dirty politics cant win honest got to cheat. Oh and during the last election wasnt it the Dems who slashed tires so that some known republicans couldnt make it to the poles?? hmmmm ya we're riggin and your cheatin!!!! Get a life really!!!
Reply:No, because, if you recall Florida, they had paper ballots, and all the problems with "chad and hanging chad, etc". What this country needs to do is have a voting period, say one week long. Everyone who votes or is eligible to vote must bring in their voter card and do a tamper proof ballot. Once the ballot is complete. A person checks to make sure that the ballot is filled out correctly, but if they try to tell the voter who to vote for, they will be immediately arrested. Have one person from each political party present to keep the others honest. Then manually count the ballots, ensuring that each ballot is numbered and in sequence, so that none are lost, misplaced or any other excuse that has been used in the past. Sure, it will be expensive, but the only other choice is the current system or lack thereof.
Reply:The votes weren't rigged. Al gore just couldn't stand the fact that he lost. He is such a poor loser. Democrats are the ones who proved the voting system can be rigged. Or is that why all those dead people voted for Clinton?

GROW UP

GET OVER IT

MOVE ON...YOU LOST OK.

the only thing bush proved is that the supreme court correctly issues rule of law and cant be bought or pressured by liberal whining. and speaking of liberal whining...using the same type of stated twisted logic it was proved that clinton was guilty of....

- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance

- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*

- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation

- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify

- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly

- First president sued for sexual harassment.

- First president accused of rape.

- First first lady to come under criminal investigation

- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case

- First president to establish a legal defense fund.

- First president to be held in contempt of court

- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions

- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad

- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court

Who cares if we had to bend the rules about lying under oath and campaign fraud and impeachment in office and conduct in the white house. etc, etc, etc.....do you see a correlation liberal???

sorry you lose on this one...have a nice day...

What did Bush mean when he said " The Constitution is just another G.. D.. piece of paper "?

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en%26amp;q=Con...

After about 400 articles or so it seems to peter off and become not about Bush anymore. For anyone saying "there's no source", there's quite a few sources. It just seems to be another dry-drunk bully statement that he's pretty famous among his staff for ranting, sort of like his "There won't be any diplomacy, F*** Saddam, we're taking him out." Really repugs, learn to use a search engine.

Don't get so bent out of shape, it's just another goddamned piece of paper...it's not like he wants to desecrate the flag or anything.

Quote.

By the way, has anyone been able to verify the story that Bush recently called the Constitution "A goddamned piece of paper"?

Unquote.

No one had an answer.

Considering that the other twenty instances of the "quote" were about evenly split between Democrat and Republican blogs or forums where one side accused the other of just such a sentiment.

The mainstream media would not have missed the opportunity to make such a "quote" by the President into a great big bash-Bush moment.

Bush ignores laws he inks, vexing Congress By LAURIE KELLMAN, Associated Press Writer

29 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - A bill becomes the rule of the land when Congress passes it and the president signs it into law, right?

Not necessarily, according to the White House. A law is not binding when a president issues a separate statement saying he reserves the right to revise, interpret or disregard it on national security and constitutional grounds.

That's the argument a Bush administration official is expected to make Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee, chaired by Arlen Specter, R-Pa., who has demanded a hearing on a practice he considers an example of the administration's abuse of power.

"It's a challenge to the plain language of the Constitution," Specter said in an interview with The Associated Press. "I'm interested to hear from the administration just what research they've done to lead them to the conclusion that they can cherry-pick."

He is anti American, anti-Constitution,is a fascist and needs to be impeached!!

The last law he decided he was not going to go by? The Patrriot Act! What a misnomer!

Since when did Bush become a judge?
Reply:WTF, I did'nt know he said that. Man..... I still think clinton was better, I mean at the job. I know he did wrong things, but he was really good at being the president. %26amp; If Bush said that, someone needs to run his @ss to the front line %26amp; wait for a RPG to hit him or for him to be draged through the streets.... GOD is what this country was founded on. %26amp; all this stuff about taking God out of the courthouse, schools, %26amp; everyother system is bull. What is it that we swear on? the Bible. %26amp; re-writing the constitution is the same as re-writing the Bible to me.
Reply:When did he say this? Can you cite your source, or are you just engaging in mindless leftist propaganda-spewing?

Answer: He never said it.

Will Bush by Imperial Edict change the name of the Constitution to the "Piece of Paper"...???

Will Bush by Imperial Edict change the name of the Constitution to the "Piece of Paper"...???
You know Larry, it's amazing to me that Americans let a President with the "swelled head complex" disregard the "Supreme Laws of the Land" without a whimper.

The Constitution specifically LIMITS the power of the president, and bush has tried his best to make a mockery of the Constitution.

It seems many on Y.A. answers want to be governed by a "King" and not a president.

They forget that under a King everyone is a subject {another word for slave.} of the King,,,and bows down in submission to his powers.

If you Americans want to enjoy personal Freedom under the "Bill of Rights", you better start seriously thinking about voting for Ron Paul as our next President, and try to listen with an open mind to exactly what he has to say.

By the way, I went to a Ron Paul meet-up last night and learned he now has a ""64%"" rating, compared to the other candidates.

Why doesn't mainstream media publisize that?

Thank you.

Probably not. News groups like Capitol Hill Blue and The Drudge Report report information that has not been confirmed by major news sources like the AP and UPI. This means that sometimes they break the story sooner but usually are dead wrong.

Now we have to live in fear that God does not tell Bush to further escalate his "War on Error" by attacking Iran.

Bush has placed himself above our Constitution by ignoring the separation of powers, outing one of our own CIA agents, condoning torture, lying about secret prisons, and violating Congressional laws based on wiretapping, and manipulating intelligence to take our nation into war, while his corporate cronies make record profits off the blood of our soldiers.

Assuming he said it, he did so because advisers were telling him that the patriot act had possibly unconstitutional elements within it.

If your asking this as a rhetorical question then it is because he

1. Has little regard for the foundation of our law and the will of our founding fathers.

2. Is not aware that the document is made of parchment and not paper. (there is a difference)

Added: For those who call the Constitution a "Living Document" I challenge them to find a pulse. The purpose of the Supreme Court is to determine the constitutional validity of arguments, not to change it to fit arguments. Even Congress cannot change the Constitution on their own authority.

Anyone got Bush on video saying "The constitution is just a godammned peice of paper"?

2011-11-18T05:16:00.001-08:00

Seems like it was behind closed doors, good luck finding video or audio:

DOUG THOMPSON | December 9 2005

Last month, Republican Congressional leaders filed into the Oval Office to meet with President George W. Bush and talk about renewing the controversial USA Patriot Act.

Several provisions of the act, passed in the shell shocked period immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, caused enough anger that liberal groups like the American Civil Liberties Union had joined forces with prominent conservatives like Phyllis Schlafly and Bob Barr to oppose renewal.

GOP leaders told Bush that his hardcore push to renew the more onerous provisions of the act could further alienate conservatives still mad at the President from his botched attempt to nominate White House Counsel Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court.

“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush retorted. “I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way.”

“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

I’ve talked to three people present for the meeting that day and they all confirm that the President of the United States called the Constitution “a goddamned piece of paper.”

Anyone got Bush on video saying "The constitution is just a godammned peice of paper"?
"No. That story came from Capitol Hill Blue, who's not enamored of Bush, and was as [allegedly] told to the reporter by 2 unnamed staffers of unnamed legislators that it was said in a private meeting with Bush.

That means it is uncorroborated and unverifiable."

--------------------------------------...

Yes But, I still do not put it past him. It defiantly sounds like a bush answer to me.
Reply:I hadn't heard audio or seen video for that but I wouldn't put it past him to say such insane things.

All he's ever shown us is just because he wears the "commander in chief pants" that he can abuse that power and authority to do whatever, whenever he wants with no question or consequence.

Good luck finding the audio or video....if you do then post it soon..I'll be looking for it as well.
Reply:No. That story came from Capitol Hill Blue, who's not enamored of Bush, and was as [allegedly] told to the reporter by 2 unnamed staffers of unnamed legislators that it was said in a private meeting with Bush. [ed] I re-read it and it is 3 unnamed persons. The number doesn't make it any more believable.

That means it is uncorroborated and unverifiable.

I don't put too much stock in uncorroborated reports from unnamed people as reported by people who vehemently oppose the target of their dirt. That's rarely a good source of truth.

By the same token, I don't believe any stories about my political opponents that have the same lack of corroboration or ability to be verified. It is especially important to verify such reports against your political opponents, else you'll be called out (and rightly so) and all your statements will be suspect.

---------

[ed] Also, one should look at the rest of Bush's tenure in office, because there is nothing of similar nature at all, in fact, he's shown very strong support of the Constitution and has bent over backwards to not run afoul of it while still trying to accomplish everything.

Thus being uncorroborated and not in keeping with the character of the rest of his actions, it has little chance of being the truth, IMO.
Reply:No do you ?
Reply:Ive read about this many times but never seen it on video, just reminds me of the hundreds of un named 'official sources' who wrote about the AQ threats, Osama, the Taliban, Saddams nukes,and his WMD stories....why the hell we all believed them Im damned if I know.

When discussing the Patriot Act in the oval office, in front of shocked aides and staff members.

Why did Bush call the U.S. constitution "just a God damned piece of paper"?
Cite a source, or shut the fck up.

Mikeygonebad claims that you can google this and get over 1.5 million results. I tried just that and got 65,800, virtually all of them blogs echoing one lone article on capitalhillblue.com. And what do I find right at the top of that article?

"WRITER'S NOTE: When this story was written, three sources told me they personally heard President Bush call the Constitution a "goddamned piece of paper." I have since learned that two of the sources were not present for the meeting and were, in fact, passing on second-hand information. The third now refuses to either confirm or deny the report."

Garbage. Pure garbage.
Reply:because he does not respect the law, he thinks he and his ilk are the law.
Reply:This is the closest I could find as far as a source goes. Who knows if he said this or not. All I know, is that he's been re-writing and editing the "God damned piece of paper" for his personal advantage since he's been in office, so it wouldn't surprise me if he did.
Reply:I dislike Bush, extremely. However, even I think that you had better quote your source on what you claim he has said. I doubt that even he is stupid enough to say that.
Reply:The man is not bright.
Reply:Well, I don't know if he did or not, but seeing the way he's acted in the last years, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if he did more than that and started using it as his own personal roll of toilet paper.
Reply:Because he's a fascist, mean-spirited, self-centered, egotistical, control-freak who wants to turn America into a police state! And he would probably urinate on it if it wasn't sealed in an airtight glass box!
Reply:well it is written on paper, he has a point there................but before I agree with Bush (though no politician ever puts much thought into the constitution),

Is this a joke? where did you hear this?I know his "shocked" aides and staff wouldn't say **** b/c they would no longer be staff or aide.
Reply:Don't bother trying to figure out the deeper meaning of anything he says, because there is no deeper meaning. If Bush thinks the Constitution is a God-damned piece of paper, then it must be. I think it's amazing that Clinton got impeached for having sex in the Oval office, and all the crazy things Bush has done like lying about WMD and he's still in office.
Reply:He's republican. He wants to revamp The Constitution by using The Patriot Act as bait. His main political backers are big business, oil barens and the Christian Militia. He wants to get the little things changed first (the flag issue) which I agree.

Unfortunately the flag will be the first leak that springs into more and more of our Patriotic People's Rights being taken away.

Every U.S. Senator will tell you the same thing. 911 changed the way we look at our country. The Patriot Act will be known as the act that took away Our Constitutional Rights.

President Bush wants to fight terrorists on their own soil and the Democrats want to protect our rights and our soil. It makes me wonder if he's protecting us or oil?

One thing that does not make since to me is that it totally contradicts everything most everyone has said about him and some of the players within the "Story"

It only looks negative on Republicans and nothing at all bad about the Democrat's. Again, seems like a slam piece that has no way to verify, nor has any validity to it. Nice try though.
Reply:I love how he speaks before he thinks--that way you know what he really means. But there are many important pieces of paper:a court summons,marriage license, MONEY (the only pieces of paper he does respect), a diploma, a speeding ticket, etc. Can we all follow our esteemed leader and say it's just a GD piece of paper, I'll do as I please? I think not. Actually maybe you could look up another link for us--The one where Bush says he doesn't mind dictatorships as long as he is the dictator. Maybe you can wake up some of his zombie followers.

Who says he did that? Do you have any evidence, or is this just a rumor? I haven't heard anybody I trust say he said that. There has been so much defamation of Bush that you can't really trust any of it. A lot of what is said IS false. I don't like everything Bush does, but I don't think it's right to defame him. In fact, it's rather self-defeating. You can oppose him much more effectively if you carefully research everything and make sure it's true, and stick to the facts. Seriously. If you develop a reputation for defaming him, people who count won't pay attention to you. You will look like a fool. So be very careful what you say. Insist in reliable facts, and don't repeat anything else. Give it some thought.

Can anyone produce a credible source? I'm sure if he had really said that it would have been all over CNN and MSNBC.

Who still thinks Bush said that the constitution is "just a GD piece of paper"?
The truthout article does not dispute the validity of the "constitution story". However, you are correct, if this story were true, legitimate news agencies would have run with it. If you do a search, the story is only in the blogosphere.

The tragedy is that everyone who hears this story believes it without thinking twice. If such a quote had been attributed to any other president (with perhaps the exception of Nixon) it would be dismissed out of hand by most people. The fact that everyone believes the story tells us a lot about what people think of George Bush.

I also never heard any denials from the White House, and this White House is usually pretty quick to get out its own side of the story, whether true or false.

How about asking "Who still thinks Iraq had ANYTHING to do with 9/11?"
Reply:Actually, whether Bush said it or not, his statement that "I'm the decider" proves that he thinks the Constitution is just another piece of paper. Also, if you will listen to his state of the Union address, he actually said "I decided" so many times that I lost count. Also, he stated that those who disagree with him "had better". Actions always speak louder than words.

He's a traitor in my book.
Reply:There does not appear to be any named person who is willing to go on the record to corroborate it.

I therefore don't put any credence in it as having been proven.

Illegal wiretaps, suspension of habeus corpus, denial of justice and speedy trials to prisoners, expansion of executive powers far beyond any predecessor... whether he said it or not is irrelevant - it's exactly how he's acting.

Did Bush actually refer to the Constitution as "just a piece of paper"?
There was a meeting back in 2005, where numerous people attended.

According to several people who were at that meeting, Bush asked if he could do something, and one of the lawyers present mentioned that it might be unconstitutional.

According to several people who were at that meeting, Bush replied something to the effect of "Stop throwing the Constitution in my face all the time. It's just a g*d*mn piece of paper".

I don't think he has very good memorization skills, so paper would be necessary. He has no memory of the lesson of Vietnam, and says the U.S. should have stayed there indefinitely, and sacrificed unlimited American blood for nothing. This man loves to have his image made, even though he appears to be very nearly illiterate and unable to put a complete paragraph together.

The story was first published on a Washinton D.C. website that deals with gossip, among other things. (National Enquirer also deals with gossip). Later, the story was pulled by the publisher. The link was down and then it was brought back. http://www.capitolhillblue.com/artman/pu...
Reply:No he did not. There are no sources to back up that claim.

Reply:It was reported that he said that. Whether he did or didn't, I'm not sure.
Reply:No. I have asked for a *credible* source for this, and apparently, it was all started by one guy with incredibly poor journalistic standards. (Yeah, I know! I was shocked, too!)

According to a very liberal website:

The source of this story is unable to verify the statement claiming "...I heard from two White House sources who claim they heard from others present in the meeting...". This isn't acceptable by any journalistic standards.

~*~*~*~

But a lot of the libs on here will act like prisonplanet, moron.org, etc are "credible" sources.

Reply:Bush on the Constitution: ‘It’s just a goddamned piece of paper’

Last month, Republican Congressional leaders filed into the Oval Office to meet with President George W. Bush and talk about renewing the controversial USA Patriot Act.

Several provisions of the act, passed in the shell shocked period immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, caused enough anger that liberal groups like the American Civil Liberties Union had joined forces with prominent conservatives like Phyllis Schlafly and Bob Barr to oppose renewal.

GOP leaders told Bush that his hardcore push to renew the more onerous provisions of the act could further alienate conservatives still mad at the President from his botched attempt to nominate White House Counsel Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court.

“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush retorted. “I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way.”

“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

I’ve talked to three people present for the meeting that day and they all confirm that the President of the United States called the Constitution “a goddamned piece of paper.”
Reply:idk but thats probably his opinion of it
Reply:Yes he said it, as reported by several republican senators who witnessed the traitorous outburst.

Because The U.S. Constitution has Nothing to do With The BushCrimeSyndicate-NaziFascist-AIPAC-PNA... ILLUMINATI-NewWorldOrder-or Their Agena for Global Dominance. The Constitution is USLESS for The Mind(less) Set of Herr Von Bushe, he being a 3rd Generation MEMBER of a CULT, known as The SKULL and BONES SOCIETY (since1969) when Flunking (but Fixing Grades) at Yale. Every year 15 ELITIST Sons are Chosen to Join This SATANIC SOCIETY. One of the Initiation Rituals is : each applicant, 1 at a time.

Reply:Who knows? Maybe he had a few too many hits.

What's ironic is that this president, who was a conservative "godsend" when he appointed "strict constructionists" to the Supreme Court, is part of the neoconservative fringe that sees the Constitution as a barrier (rather than as a guideline as most liberal interpreters would) to realizing their totalitarian ambitions.
Reply:Because he was absent that day when the class learned about our Constitution. He only got a C average,even with momma and pops pulling strings!
Reply:Q: Why did Bush say the Constitution is just a goddamned piece of paper?

Nearly all of his actions, although vehemently denounced by the Copperheads, were subsequently upheld by Congress and the Courts.

Reply:I read in an American paper that Arabic papers are to be used to line the cages of rodents.
Reply:American Empire, Roman Empire. They have a lot of similarities. Caesar was fairly early in Roman history. Bush would be like one of the later Emperors.

Near the end of the Roman Empire they had huge tax problems. Only the poor were taxed while the wealthy paid very little. They also had huge problems with foreign manufacture, An incredible trade imbalance and collapsed under the costs of running their military empire.The US Empire faces the same problems and has no ready solutions for them either.

That seems to be how most of the politicians feel. Makes me wonder how much longer we'll have that piece of paper - how about you?

Why did Bush call the constitution a god damn piece of paper?
Because it is, in fact, a "god damn piece of paper."
Reply:Because the goal of his jesuit-vatican masters is to destroy liberty in this country.

Did Prez Bush really say "just a G...dam piece of paper."?

in referring to the constitution. I think it may be 2nd hand information from an aide, but is it verifiable?

Did Prez Bush really say "just a G...dam piece of paper."?
“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face. It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

-George W. Bush, 43rd President, United States

P.S. Obviously he would only have said this in the heat of the moment and would naturally want to limit the damage after the event. However, if he was misquoted then you can be certain that the people involved in making the claim would be prosecuted for slander - the fact that they have not gives credibility to the claim.

In any even, whether he said these words or not his administration's success in introducing the so called 'Patriot Act' have taken dangerous steps towards turning the Constitution into "just a goddamned piece of paper"
Reply:No...lol. If he had it would be the lead story by every liberal news source in the country. I know the President is seen to be a stupid man, but no one is that stupid. But, GW is a hella lot smarter than people give him credit for. I think his simpleton act is just that, an act.

As for the constitution it is just a piece of paper now. The meanings as presented by the crafters of the document were lost long ago. Do you really think the framers meant to protect the First Amendment rights of a perverted 60 year old man as he video tapes an 18 year old girl having sex with rabid German shepherds as a roomful of drunken frat boys watch on performing a circle jerk? Those who ratified the Constitution would be appalled by the Courts interpretation of their original meanings.
Reply:NO! What kind of American would say that?! Another Liberal lie!
Reply:If Capitol Hill Blue is your source, then I think it's probably not true at all. I personally loathe Bush, but I cannot credit that he would be stupid enough to say such a thing, even in a room full of Republicans.

It's fairly obvious that he doesn't care much about the Constitution or the Law. All those signing statements he has used to make sure that the law would not apply to anything he wanted to do is pretty much evidence that he thinks the office of the President is above the rule of law. And its fairly obvious, with warrantless wiretaps and pushing through unpopular appointees by between-congress shenanigans, that he's not interested in the Constitution that much. To modify a popular quote from the 60s, he apparently believes that he's going to have to destroy the Constitution in order to save it.

Did Bush really call the Constitution "That Goddamn piece of paper"?
President George W. Bush is on the record as having said the Constitution of this United States is "just a piece of paper." This same president has condoned torture and reserved the right to waive habeas corpus when he thinks it is necessary.

On May 9, 2007, the final dishonor to his oath of office occurred. Our president passed National Security Presidential Directive/ NSPD-51 and Homeland Security Presidential Directive/HSP-20 and has given himself the power to proclaim himself dictator of the United States of America, assuming all the powers of national, state, local and tribal governments under any emergency he deems necessary. CSPAN is the only media outlet to even discuss this issue.

Read the directive for yourself on the Internet at www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/05... You will see an unprecedented executive branch power grab that has no boundaries. Our Constitution has been made null and void.

"As you know, in Article I, section 8, Congress has enumerated powers as well as the power to legislate all enactments necessary and proper to their specific authorities, and I believe that is what the President has, similar authority to take executive action necessary and proper to carry out his enumerated responsibilities of which today we are only talking about surveillance of Americans."

When and where did Bush call the Constitution "an old scrap of paper?"?

I have seen it quoted in multiple places, but they never say when he originally said it.

When and where did Bush call the Constitution "an old scrap of paper?"?
Looks like you will NOT find it. Note that no one using it bothers to give a specific quote or context.

A web search turns up numerous cases of the very same article --a screed by Cindy Sheehan, where she lists this alongside various other positions she imagines Bush has.

Not exactly the most reliable, unbiased source. No, if he'd said anything like this you can be sure there are plenty of journalists who would be out there reporting it!

Consider also the slight possibility that Bush --or perhaps just a Bush supporter-- used the expression "old scrap of paper" of the Constitution, but NOT in order to denigrate it.

Compare the following random quotes from forums:

*then the state is interfereing in church affairs - not legal, at least not according to a little old scrap of paper we call the "Constitution".

*pick up the constitution and measure the action of the government.

if they fall short or violate the old scrap of paper, then ANYONE... yes, anyone has the right to SUE the government, or press charges for the violation.

Note that both of these speakers use this very expression for the Constitution but CLEARLY think of it very highly and are using the expression to help make that point!

It would not be difficult to imagine how a Bush-hater might come across such a phrase and jump to the conclusion it was intended negatively without stopping to check.

And consider how easily this would happen -- someone who thinks Bush's NSA policy or whatever violates the Constitution makes a remark (their own opinion, mind you) that "Bush acts as if the Constitution is just an old scrap of paper". That quickly becomes "Bush thinks that..." and oh, so easily, ends up as "Bush SAID that. . . " And of course THIS is the form that many pick up on and run with.

The article was there on Friday and by Monday it had disappeared. I tried to locate it on MSN, Yahoo and Google... no sign of the report.

Bush - Constitution

'Just A Goddamned

Piece Of Paper'

By Doug Thompson

Capitol Hill Blue

12-9-5

Last month, Republican Congressional leaders filed into the Oval Office to meet with President George W. Bush and talk about renewing the controversial USA Patriot Act.

Several provisions of the act, passed in the shell shocked period immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, caused enough anger that liberal groups like the American Civil Liberties Union had joined forces with prominent conservatives like Phyllis Schlafly and Bob Barr to oppose renewal.

GOP leaders told Bush that his hardcore push to renew the more onerous provisions of the act could further alienate conservatives still mad at the President from his botched attempt to nominate White House Counsel Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court.

"I don't give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I'm the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."

"Mr. President," one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."

"Stop throwing the Constitution in my face," Bush screamed back. "It's just a goddamned piece of paper!"

I've talked to three people present for the meeting that day and they all confirm that the President of the United States called the Constitution "a goddamned piece of paper."

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, while still White House counsel, wrote that the “Constitution is an outdated document.”

You might want to research the suicidal people that couldn't escape Hurricane Katrina, because of money and poverty. A lot of people died the Government isn't reporting properly, and are ignoring the whole thing because of race.

You know, I realized that the Constitution is a part of the military oath of service:

"I, {insert name here}, do solemnly swear, (or affirm), that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."

So does that mean we have to attack the President in defense of the Constitution he attacked verbally?

And they try to squirm out of it, admitting he said it!

The quotation first appeared in an editorial for Capitol Hill Blue — not exactly an unbiased publication with enough reputation for the comment to be taken for granted. However, it seems as if the journalist has received three independent confirmations that the quote was indeed uttered during a meeting with the GOP over the USA PATRIOT Act extension. It is well-known that Bush has an unhealthy temper, and is prone to saying rash things. Perhaps the better question is, "If he did say it, did he really mean it?"
Reply:“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush retorted. “I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way.”

“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

-------------------

This is the same President that said "It would be easier if he were a dictator" and the same guy who may have said (likely) that god told him to invade Iraq

The same President that a pschiatrist called a socipath with paranoid delusions - He is an alcoholic and a coke head -

And here he is, the President of the United States with his finger on the nuclear trigger and in command of the massive American military

All great signs for the future

Bush warns North Korea not to give nukes to Iran or it will face the outcomes. Isn't he a paper tiger now?

2011-11-18T05:11:00.000-08:00

I mean he has now formally accepted a nuclear North Korea. Don't you think this encourages mullahs of Iran to go on with their nukes project until they test their first nuclear bomb? Iran's supreme leader is said to have told top officials of the country a few years ago that if we achieve the bomb as done by North Korea , US cannot do a damn thing. It seems he was right. The way the so-called powers are treating North Korea is a good lesson to every tyranical regime that if they make ( or purchase ! ) the nuclear bomb no one WILL DO ANYTHING. EUROPE, RUSSIA AND CHINA GET THEIR SHARE OF THE MARKET IN SUCH COUNTRIES and the US will be trying to battle with windmills Like Don Quixote.

By the way, North Korea made the nuke while President Clinton was taking all serious measures and all his powers to explore Monika's hidden sites. He did not waste his precious time on a minor issue like NK's nukes. Bush and Condi Rice are the same powerless miserable beings following EU/ Russia /China!

Alas

Bush warns North Korea not to give nukes to Iran or it will face the outcomes. Isn't he a paper tiger now?

Operation Iraqi Freedom came into effect on March 20th 2003, with the invasion of Iraq. The initial mission and reasoning behind the operation was to disarm the Iraqi nation of their Nuclear and Chemical weapons, while attempting to decimate terrorist organizations. In the process of ridding the world of adversarial harm from the capricious nation, coalition forces would also liberate the citizens of Iraq from years of murder, censorship, and oppression. It has been almost four years since the United States’ military has occupied the country, when will be a rational and logical timetable for withdrawal, and did the Bush Administration adhere and accomplish their targeted goal.

April 9th 2003, showcased to the world the defeat of the Iraqi Army, and the fall of Baghdad: Iraq’s capital. In December of the same year, occupying forces captured the former Iraqi Dictator, Saddam Hussein, hiding in a bunker. The United States occupancy in Iraq ultimately showed no signs of Nuclear or Chemical silos, or development or research centers; which debunked the Bush Administrations initial allegations. The American Government has been trying to “rebuild” Iraq’s political structure, and with the inhabitance of American troops, the United States has been able to minimally control the country to a certain extent.

Iraq as a whole is very unstable and undoubtedly a total mess. Criticisms attacking the Bush Administration claim that this operation has been nothing but a disastrous failure. Many Americans are growing increasingly upset and angered at the Bush Administration. Accusations surrounding the Administration claim that the United States are just overseas in an attempt to seize valuable oil resources in the Middle East. The surplus of the Middle East’s oil supply has been the main argumentative sentiments enfolding the United States occupancy in Iraq.

The Middle East has long had a reputation of being an unstable region. Conflicting differences between varying religious and ethnic groups, disrupts the pugnacious area. Growing tensions between neighboring Shiites and Sunni will only lead to an escalation of violence and instability, and could induce a potential civil war throughout the country and region. While American forces have been in Iraq, many civilian rebels have been attacking American troops which only adds to the nations instability. Acts of terrorism are a daily occurrence in the country.

While many Americans believe that the United States Government should withdraw troops immediately, the onset of potential terrorist acts are imminent. While occupying Iraq, we have been able to eliminate and neutralize terrorist organizations, such as Al-Quidia; which will only hault and delay possible attacks.

As stated earlier, the main attribution for the United States’ apprehension of withdrawing troops is the possibility of civil war around the region. The current arms transfer is only heightening the volatile scare of war. Many of the nations surrounding Iraq, have been researching and acquiring weapons of mass destruction, and are audacious enough to use them.Operation Iraqi Freedom came into effect on March 20th 2003, with the invasion of Iraq.

while writing laws taking our rights away? And has broken over 100 of our laws saying they don't pertain to him?

Wouldn't you consider that treason against the American people?

Don't wait thinking he'll be gone soon to demand he be impeached. Because self proclaimed "King George" plans to have martial law in place before anyone else gets into office.

He told me not to put in my resignation with my current job until he was absolutely sure of the start date and to call him the following week to make sure. I called the following week and he said they are having "software issues" and I cannot start yet. It's been two weeks now. I'm not sure if he's beating me around the bush and lying or if this is true. Can I take legal action for this ? Eventhough I never resigned from my current job I was promised this one. And now it seems like I'm being lied too? Any lawyers out there who can help me?

Thanks

I recently went on a job interview. I was offered the job. However, they are now beating me around the bush.?
legal action for what?

you have had no financial loss.

they told you to not put in your notice yet and you are still employed, so what is the problem?

employers can hire and fire whomever they like you can't make them start you any sooner then it fits into their plans.

if you really want the new job don't go making waves and cause them to question their decision to hire you.
Reply:You have no legal recourse. They haven't made you an offer. You don't have an offer letter.
Reply:No, unless you have signed an employment contract you have no legal recourse.

If Bush only does what he thinks is right, why did he hand Rumsfailed his papers after the election?

2010-05-21T21:42:00.000-07:00

Coincidence? Or was it a political decision versus what is best for the war on terror?

If Bush only does what he thinks is right, why did he hand Rumsfailed his papers after the election?
not that complicated. rumsfeld help orchestrate the swiftest victory in the history warfare but was not well suited to the police work that followed.

by any measure, we have never been in a war with fewer casualties.
Reply:Leap over the Neocon fascists' orchestrated show of propaganda. Don't buy it anymore. It's time to figure out how to clean up their mess of death and destruction. Start by supporting the politicians you think are on the path of fixing things. They need to hear from you.
Reply:I think Rumsfeld was doomed - either way.

I believe if Bush had dumped him prior to the elections, it would have definitely appeared to be a political effort to appease the voters and gain more support for the republican candidates.

Rumsfeld was not the best man for this position - he certainly proved that - and why it took Bush so long to figure this out may well be one of his greatest faults. He seems to be loyal to his staff to the point of being blind as to their incompetence.
Reply:Because Bush is a liar.

2010-05-21T21:41:00.001-07:00

No silly Constitution to get in the way of things?

Bush elected President for life?

Freedoms and liberties restricted to party loyalties only?

State-controlled restrictions on the media and the internet?

National ID cards and personal papers for each person?

Women having no rights whatsoever?

Rigged elections without the need for a recount or court challenge?

Wiretapping of all US citizens without warrants?

Zero gun control laws?

A para-military government?

No healthcare or any other social programs?

What do Americans think of the unprecedented actions of Bush Jr.?

2010-05-21T21:40:00.002-07:00

I'm a Canadian, and follow the American political scene as it directly affects many of components to our society.

I'm flabergasted at George W. Bush and his use of the power which comes with the Oval Office.

I'm wondering what do democrate and republican americans think?

Do you find his actions out of line?

And, democrates, why on earth has there been no papers of impeachment filed??

Pelosi is third in line!

Cheers,

Your friendly Canadian,

What do Americans think of the unprecedented actions of Bush Jr.?
Our government has a goal. A new world order and police state. In order to achieve this goal they need us to beg them for security. In order for us to beg them for security, something big has to happen. So our government orchestrated 911 for a reason to go to war, to begin building this new world government. Think about it, would you like Iraq coming over here and telling us how to run our government? That's exactly what we are doing. We are over there telling them how they are going to rebuild their government, and they never attacked us in the first place. Come on people, please wake up. Educate yourselves, don't let the wool be over your eyes anymore. If you think this is just my own opinion, then by all means do your own research before you rule me out. I didn't believe it at first either until I saw some dvds and I could see the controlled demolition of 911 right in front of my face.

Reply:See as a Canadian, you do not understand how slow, stupid and oblivious Americans are. Many Americans think that we have a right to police the world.

Oh well, I guess Americans will realize how much their monkey leader ****** up the country when we get bombed again.
Reply:I believe the reason you do not see impeachment an issue if because unfortunately the Democrats know the same power this god awful president has created is the same power that they will inherit in 2008. That is a bad sign for this country in my opinion. And yes he is completely out of line.
Reply:Most of us think that both parties are out of touch will the American public. Hopefully we will remember those who sold us out at election time.
Reply:Uhhh because you need an actual charge and evidence to impeach.

Look Congress said the President needs to Stop Iraq. They passed a resolution, so did the UN, that Iraq needed to be invaded. It wasn't really Bush's call.

I think he is doing fine. He isn't the best, but certainly not the worst. The Democrats would be torn to bits if they tried to impeach a President during a time of war. Plus our Congress's approval rating is like 26%. Yay them!

To understand American Politics you have to realize that the power lies with Congress. The President is there to enforce their rules. Considering we are doing just fine I see no reason for our government to waste more time and impeach a president with 1 year left in his term. And Nancy Pelosi isn't very popular with Americans either.

Hey Clinton and Andrew Johnson were both Impeached! Yay them!

Do American citizens really like George W Bush?

2010-05-21T21:40:00.001-07:00

I am not American and have never lived in the country but I studied American politics in college 5-6 years ago. I do watch the news and stuff and I am interseted in what goes on around the world. I have been wondering though if there are so many people in the US that dislike Bush (and have no problem in showing it) then why is he still the President? Is what we see in tv or read in the papers all talk and no action? Or is it just that people pretend they don't like him but actually vote for him? Thanks whoever answers and hope I didn't offend anyone.

Do American citizens really like George W Bush?
When a president is elected, they hold the office for 4 years. Even if a majority of the population decides they don't like him, after all, he can't be removed unless he's impeached by the legislative branch of our government.

He has to have committed what they deem to be an impeachable offense.

Then he still may retain the office if not convicted for the offense.

So, no, we the people, cannot get rid of Bush.

As far as the vote goes, Bush "won" with only a 2-3% majority, and a lot of people here dispute the accuracy of that. There are a lot of people who believe that the election was "rigged" in various ways to ensure that slight majority.
Reply:The country was nearly split on Bush during the last election. I don't believe anything was rigged. Since the election, Bush's approval rating has plummetted to previously-unseen lows. It was around 34% of the country that approved of his job performance last week in USA Today. Report It

Reply:Some people do like him apparently but he's less popular since the war. A lot of the people voted for him again because they were afraid to get a new president while our nation is at war. I heard a lot of military people say that. Maybe it's fear of the unknown. Politics can be tricky.

We didn't really have much to choose from in the last election.

That does not mean that every Republican and Conservative like him - some just like to keep their party in power.

It also does not mean that EVERY Democrat or Liberal dislikes him.
Reply:I disagree on some of Bush's policies but I still like him as president. And be careful with what you see on T.V. It's not very accurate and tends to only show the extremes of most issues. But I do find it kind of annoying how many countries and people concentrate their hate for certain policies just towards the U.S. when there are many many other countries that I could talk crap about all day without stopping.
Reply:I definitely don't support Mr. President Bush. His views are so off from my own and also from some of the polls that i have seen. I am a moderate conservative, but i am completely liberal as far as the civil movement goes. As long as there is intolerance and semantics dividing people i will be there trying to help everyone. Love is stronger than politics.

Its also much harder to remove him from office especially during a war time. I actually voted for him the second time around because if Senator Kerry took office we would have complete chaos. Imagine Bruce Almighty with the answer all yes button on the laptop.

Had to vote against a public liar, of course.

Don't worry, even in other countries, you are still granted the same allowance to question us, so if you offend someone they are the ones with the problem, and they don't have to answer your question.

He is a feeble minded piss poor leader, and I'm ashamed of the American people who voted for him. Sorry you were fooled. Why don't you research the Internet and find out what he really has done to this country!
Reply:They must like him or why did they vote for him. Unfortunately, because of the undemocratic electoral system and the reliance on donor contributions the US electorate do not get much of a choice. The TV and papers are also run for commercial gain and there is no effective public broadcasting system. A change will come but it will take years.

In the meantime, George will pass on power to another president who has been backed by big money and the new president will have to look after his rich constituents.

Tony Blaire is one of the best friends of Mr. Bush. When Mr. Blaire went to USA there was no proper good bye.

This is from the UK papers and looked very embarrassing. What’s more the oil pilferages in the Iraq also raise many questions.

Mr. Bush only said generally that he was responsible for the resignation of Mr. Blaire. There was nothing on Kyoto Protocol or withdraw from Iraq. In fact Iraq did not exist.

Isn't it finally time to impeach George W. Bush?

2010-05-21T21:39:00.002-07:00

Article 3 of the Nixon impeachment stated, in part, that Nixon "has failed without lawful cause or excuse to produce papers and things as directed by duly authorized subpoenas issued by the Committee on the Judiciary of the House of Representatives on April 11, 1974, May 15, 1974, May 30, 1974, and June 24, 1974, and willfully disobeyed such subpoenas."

Isn't this what Bush has been doing with the Plame investigation, the U.S. Attorney firings, the NSA wiretapping, the Abu Ghraib torturing, etc.?

Haven't we finally had enough? Are we really going to let Bush and Cheney walk on all this? No personal attacks, please; I am just looking at the public record. Just state your opinion on the facts.

Isn't it finally time to impeach George W. Bush?
Impeachment requires a two-thirds majority vote, and unfortunately Congress is still too evenly split for that. However, there has been talk of charging him with contempt of court for refusing to comply with the subpoena. I think that would be thoroughly appropriate, and his efforts to weasel out of that charge would once again demonstrate that he thinks he's above the law. Just keep putting those nails in the coffin, George.
Reply:Finally? I thought it was time four years ago.

To the "Cheney will be President" people... Cheney can be impeached and brought up on charges just as easily as Bush. That is not a problem. If Bush is guilty, Cheney is guilty.
Reply:Since the articles of impeachment were only drafted, but never voted on, it doesn't mean they would have been upheld.

Of course, by your logic, both Clintons would have need to have been found in violation of the law. They failed to deliver many, many documents and info requested by subpeona. Such as Hillary's Rose Law firm records. Such as official White House e-mail (as opposed to GOP internal e-mail). Etc.

Not sure what makes you think there was anything done at all by Bush regarding Plame, Abu Ghraib, the NSA wiretapping or even the US attorney firings - there has been no testimony or evidence that he's done anything wrong at all in any of these cases.

There is no public record indicating any wrongdoing, so where are your facts?
Reply:No, there have to be a crime committed first
Reply:If that is the route you choose to take. Personally, I see no point in wasting the time, money, and effort necessary to impeach a President who will be out of office is less than a year and a half and is quickly loosing support within his own party. President Bush is a lame duck, there is no need to remove him because he has little political power.

Since the Clinton impeachment has been brought up in a few answers, let us examine it. President Clinton was impeached after being indicted by a grand jury for the felony crime of perjury (lying under oath to a court of law). President Bush has yet to be indicted for any crime. Also, the political consequences of the unsuccessful impeachment of President Clinton were fairly large in the next election. Republicans lost control of the Senate, lost a lot of seats in the House, and nearly lost the Presidency to a not so popular Vice President. I don't think it is in the Democratic party's best interest to impeach Bush. If they leave him alone, they are the clear favorites to win the White House in 2008. Why screw that up?

Reply:Given that Cheney would be tossed as well, keep in mind that Nancy Pelosi stands next in line. That's most likely the reason for her "Not on my watch!" comment.

Even then, I'd vote for impeachment. It just doesn't get much worse than it is now.

FYI, I was as life-long Republican until shortly after Bush was elected. I've switched to Independent and during the last general election voted the first straight party ticket I've ever voted in 36 years of voting. Hint: It was NOT a Repbulican ticket!
Reply:you want Cheney to be President ?
Reply:I don't understand why Clinton almost got impeached over an adulterous affair (even though we are supposed to keep church and state seperate anyway) yet Bush is able to do illegal spying on our very own citizens and there isn't a mention of the word impeachement!

The Republicans (evil do'ers) were ALL over Clinton- but now....all they are doing is supporting their war monger.
Reply:you're a democrat. what would republicans think of this?

but I myself am undecided with this whole politics stuff. so don't try to change me.
Reply:Well, once they investigate WJ Clinton further and he goes to jail we can look into beginning impeachment proceedings for George W Bush. Now that means we have to open more CIA files. Full disclosure during the Clinton administration. He fired 93 US Attorneys when he took office. It is under Executive Orders u can search engine. Wiretapping and? investigations of suspected criminals and terrorists? When we know now what is real as b4 we were in the dark. In Europe the CIA/FBI had already taken aggressive actions against suspected terrorists. Those places we hear so little about?

In my opinion this is all about an extra ordinary election with a past President and his spouse running for the 44th President.

Nepotism I thought we were rid of during Kennedy days. SO, your headlines are more extreme. Politics as usual if you follow the trends. 2007 it is a new ball game out there.

I feel strongly that these are not facts yet public speculation. Propaganda for the return of Democratic control by two very dominate individuals. If the Good Senator from New York cared about the fact that she accepted donations for re-election only to devote her time to run for President ? And she sleeps well at night? Why can I believe she will perform better at another job?

Judge Holloway Johnson is one to look up and stay onto. She derailed Kenneth Starr. Reports came out she over looked criminal sentences for financiers on the Clinton payroll. So if she gets a better job in '09, like Pelosi and the rest of the debts do not cry to those of us who said we told you so. Thank you very much.

**be still my heart butterbar u pulled up Rose Law Firm

documents were found in the First Ladies quarters.. imagine that .. and where are they now? Sandy Berger? Or Vince Foster, well he committed suicide and a bullet to the back of the head? Fact. Clinton witnesses are very flexible.

Do you think that President Bush and his administration are infringing on our Constitutional rights?

2010-05-21T21:39:00.001-07:00

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Why does his administration and him need to know the where abouts and private information of every one? Is it not our constitutional right to be and go freely where ever i feel at any given time, without having to look over my shoulder, wondering if the Government/ Bush is watching my every step? And i know the argument that we/ He needs to be able to know this to protect us, or if i didnt have anything to hide then why should i be conserned. But those are NOT valid enough answers to go unchecked while He thoughs MY rights to the wind!

NO ONE has explained why the administration discarded the FISA requirement to obtain judicial approval for wiretaps, either before OR AFTER! Conveniently, he and his supporters don't mention that there was no reason to violate FISA because if the wiretaps were valid they would be retroactively approved.

The argument that if you have nothing to hide, you shouldn't be concerned does not wash. If you really believe this, then please push for public disclosure of the administration's decision-making. Why we went to war, who helped write the energy bill, who leaked the Plame identity, etc. I'd also like to allow the IRS to spy on our private business records because only cheaters would have something to hide. I'm sure that you have no objections to bedroom spying either if you are not breaking any laws.

Only this minority, which I mentioned, does not see the corruption the Bush administration endorses.

Who thinks Bush is the most liberal President since FDR?

2010-05-21T21:37:00.002-07:00

Look at what Liberals stand for.

Big Government. Bush has increased federal jobs by more than the last four presidents combined.

Big Spending. Greater increase in spending than even Bill Clinton.

Deficit spending. Deficit has doubled under him

Intrusion into our personal liberties. See front page of today’s papers for recording of "ALL" of our domestic phone calls.

Involving us in foreign wars. Iraq nuff said.

Guess he is against gay marriage so that make him a good compasionate conservative.

The current Republican administration has given us the biggest INCREASE in spending on social programs in our history, besides the increases in defense spending.

Why does Bush only pay attention to bad 'intel' reports about Iraq?

2010-05-21T21:37:00.001-07:00

Starting with the WMDs and now this....

WASHINGTON - Intelligence analysts predicted, in secret papers circulated within the government before the Iraq invasion, that al-Qaida would see U.S. military action as an opportunity to increase its operations and that Iran would try to shape a post-Saddam Iraq.

The top analysts in government also said that establishing a stable democracy in Iraq would be a "long, difficult and probably turbulent process."

Democrats said the newly declassified documents, part of a Senate Intelligence Committee investigation released Friday, make clear that the Bush administration was warned about the very challenges it now faces as it tries to stabilize Iraq.

He has destroy Iraq's infrastructure, hospitals, schools, homes, roads, utilities.... and he continues to do it - and our recently elected "do-nothing" Congress permits it. Mr. Bush will continue his pursuit of the oilfields until somebody stops him....and no one has the cajones to do it.

"U.S. Web site said to reveal nuke info

Government posted secret Iraqi papers

By Willliam J. Broad

New York Times News Service

Published November 3, 2006

Last March, the federal government set up a Web site to make public a vast archive of Iraqi documents captured during the war.

The Bush administration did so under pressure from congressional Republicans who said they hoped to leverage the Internet to find new evidence of the prewar dangers posed by Saddam Hussein.

But in recent weeks, the site has posted some documents that weapons experts say present a danger themselves: detailed accounts of Iraq's secret nuclear research before the 1991 Persian Gulf war. The documents, the experts say, constitute a basic guide to building an atom bomb."

I had a freaken nervous break down when my father died, went through several suicide attempts and was put on antidepressants for three years. There is NO way he can grasp these troops have mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and children that will grow up without a parent.

Why does Bush ignore the Constitution?

2010-05-21T21:36:00.002-07:00

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." - 4th amendment to the constitution

President Bush is determined to spy on us without a court order. Let's get something straight; neither I nor any other liberal I know of has any serious objection to government eavesdropping in the legitimate pursuit of criminal activity, including potential terror attacks.

Here's the problem. Bush first said that warrants were obtained for all wiretapping; that was false. Now he says that we're at war and he doesn't need a warrant. But why won't he explain his reasons to an appropriate court and get a warrant? How are we to know that he's not spying simply because he has a "gut feeling"? Or for political reasons or even for personal enrichment? Should I trust him? Should anybody? The constitution says that we don't have to; he must satisfy a court that there is probable cause to believe that the person being wire-tapped might be doing something wrong.

I don't trust the government that much - regardless of who the President is - that's why the constitution says what it says.

If a President has that kind of authority over us then the nation the founders created is dead and we are merely feudal vassals. It makes little difference to the serf whether he's enslaved by a domestic tyrant or a foreign one, the revolt will be the same.

Reply:Osama Bin Laden Invited to the White House?

Christopher Ruddy

Thursday, June 6, 2002

Osama Bin Laden Invited to the White House!

Now that sounds more than far-fetched. And certainly President Bush would rather see bin Laden's head on a platter than to have him as a dinner guest.

But a senior former CIA agent who served in the Middle East for almost two decades fighting terrorists thinks that bin Laden may believe that, like fellow terrorist leader Yasser Arafat, he may find himself someday a guest of a future U.S. president.

This former CIA officer, Robert Baer, recently wrote the explosive book "See No Evil: The True Story of a Ground Soldier in the CIA's War on Terrorism."

Baer writes that when he sees Arafat "standing in the Rose Garden at the White House or when I hear that a CIA director has met privately with him at some desert tent, I wonder sometimes if Arafat's example doesn't make Osama bin Laden consider that he, too, might become a statesman in time."

Baer's point seems fantastic. However, we now know for a certainty that Arafat has masterminded and backed too many terrorist acts to count, from the Munich massacre to jet hijackings and worse.

A veteran of the Mideast, Baer knows Arafat. Baer writes that while "terrorist organizations operate like the most complicated interlocking directorate ever created," he discovered that many of the trails of these groups and their activities "converge at the feet of Yasser Arafat."

Yet today our liberal media prefer to describe Arafat as a freedom fighter. Baer's observations are deemed politically incorrect.

That may be one reason his book, with many important revelations, with a foreword by Seymour Hersh and published by Random House, has gotten such little media attention since it hit bookstores earlier this year.

Perhaps a companion book might have been titled: "Speak No Evil: Why A Veteran CIA Officer Should Keep His Mouth Shout About How Bill Clinton Undermined America's National Security."

While Baer fairly criticizes problems in the CIA and its handling of terrorism from the days of the Reagan and Bush administrations, he also clearly shows that the infrastructure of the CIA's ability to fight terrorism completely collapsed under Bill Clinton.

Here are just some of Baer's key points:

In 1991, the CIA closed up its activities in Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia. During the Clinton years things got even worse, when CIA operatives around the globe were directed away from spying on the bad guys and told to start worrying about "human rights, economic globalization, the Arab-Israel conflict." By 1995, the Clinton administration thought spy operations were so unimportant that a CIA analyst who had never served as a spy or even overseas was made director of operations, the CIA's chief spy.

Iran remains a major player in the terrorist world. Baer says that in 1982, Arafat "had put his entire worldwide terrorist network at Iran's disposal." Baer believes that the Iranians were clearly the culprits behind the bombings of the U.S. Embassy and Marine barracks in the early 1980s. In 1996, bin Laden formed an alliance with Iran. The purpose of the alliance was simple: Attack America.

The Clinton White House's gross negligence and malfeasance was demonstrated by its handling of Saddam Hussein. Baer states that in 1995, top staffers at the National Security Council prevented a planned coup by Iraqi military leaders against Saddam Hussein. Baer was the top CIA man in Northern Iraq working with Iraqi dissidents.

Baer also reveals just how much the Clinton White House sought to protect Hussein.

In 1995 Baer was summoned by the CIA back from Iraq to Washington. Upon reporting to CIA headquarters, a CIA superior told him why he was called home: "Tony Lake [Bill Clinton's national security adviser] ordered the FBI to investigate you for trying to assassinate Saddam Hussein."

After months of investigation, the charges were found to be baseless and dropped.

Like many other CIA veterans who were thwarted from doing their jobs by their own government, Baer retired. Still, the CIA gave him due recognition. He was awarded its Career Intelligence Medal.

But the coddling of Hussein was not isolated to just targeting Baer and removing him from Iraq.

In fact, the Clinton White House clearly decided to keep and maintain Saddam Hussein in power. [Note: I suspected this back in 1998 and wrote about it in "Maybe Saddam Actually Likes Bill Clinton."]

In one of the most important revelations in "See No Evil," Baer reveals that Saddam Hussein might well have been deposed by his own troops, especially if the economic sanctions had been rigorously applied.

But with U.S. complicity, Saddam Hussein was able to sell millions of barrels of Iraqi oil by shipping them overland through NATO ally Turkey.

During the mid-'90s Baer says, the smuggled oil through Turkey "was a lifeline for Saddam, who used the money to fund his intelligence services and Special Republican Guards – the forces that kept him alive."

The pipeline of smuggled oil was no hidden, disputed fact. Baer reports the Iraqi oil trucks stretched back anywhere from 20 miles to 70 miles as they waited to cross into Turkey.

Baer was baffled. He writes, "What I couldn't understand was why the White House didn't intervene." He says the U.S. could easily have closed down the truck pipeline into Turkey.

"It was almost as if the White House wanted Saddam to have a little walking around money," Baer writes.

Baer concludes that the Clinton administration "helped Saddam pay for his praetorian guard, just what you'd expect of a clever superpower that was secretly supporting the local despot."

Why would Bill Clinton, our president, do such a thing? Why would he help Saddam Hussein at the very time his public rhetoric against him was so strong?

Nobody who has studied Bill Clinton should be surprised by his duplicity. The facts show, and future historians will discover, that Bill Clinton was no friend of the United States.

Reply:You're going to have to point out telecommunications language in the Constitution to make a valid point. And since telecom is federally regulated, why wouldn't the federal government have access to the lines to secure our safety?

Unless of course, you are a criminal with something to hide.
Reply:First, the spying is on international communications to or from suspected terrorists. They're not spying on your call to your Aunt Betty in Nebraska.

The Constitution is not a suicide pact. It gives the job of waging war to the Commander-in-chief, otherwise known as the president. Part of waging war is conducting intelligence on your enemies. If a terrorist in Sudan picks up his phone and calls his fellow terrorist in NY to discuss their plans to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge, and the gov't is monitoring the caller's (in Sudan) phone line, is that violating the 4th amendment of the person in NY?

Another argument I've heard is that the 4th amendment is aimed at preventing abuses from law enforcement, not to stop the gov't from national security activities.

Added:

I'm not wrong.A panel of 5 former FISA judges "said they could not speak specifically to the NSA listening program without being briefed on it, but that a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act does not override the president's constitutional authority to spy on suspected international agents under executive order.

Does Blair want to BE Bush?

2010-05-21T21:36:00.001-07:00

I see in the news that Blair is planning to give police more power to detain and question civilians without charging them (or even accusing them) of crimes.

Also included in this measure is a proposal to allow police to seize papers and certain other personal items without charge or warrant.

It seems that Blair's Bush-envy continues to prompt unnecessary, civil-liberty squashing, Patriot Act style legislation. Does Blair really think this is a good idea, or does he just want to be like his hero, George Bush?

Does Blair want to BE Bush?
I don't know that he's trying to be like Bush. I'd say its more a case of his being infected with the same brand of hysterical cowardice as Bush, or at least of his propagating and exploiting such hysterical cowardice.

He has the advantage of not laboring under the Bill of Rights. If I understand this law you're talking about right, I don't think it would be constitutional here.

I am constantly amazed that people who are so quick to claim

that freedom is worth dying for are even quicker to insist on giving up their freedom if some schmuck on tv tells them there's even a scintilla of risk involved in keeping it.

If there are dangerous foreigners or immigrants among us, maybe it would be better to deport their kind in general, not out of malice but simply so that the rest of us can live our lives under the laws our ancestors fought and died to enact.

But of course it would take actual leadership of some sort to successfully enact a policy like that.
Reply:no he does not want to be bush. bush is of no higher rank than he. they are both puppets.
Reply:He wants to be Bush's babe. And the police should stick to the business of arresting criminals and not the psychic business of "Preventing" crime - which they are mostly unqualified to do.
Reply:Blair is trying to enforce the laws in his country? Why that filthy stinking rat bastard, how dare he? Who does he think he is? As everyone knows, criminals will arrest themselves if they're just given half a chance, he doesn't need to go all Nazi on them.

EDIT

Total freedom is not possible. Anarchy is total freedom but it leads directly to chaos and tyranny. There has to be a balance between freedom and security, and to assume you can have both absolutely is unrealistic.
Reply:Had he been, he would not have Left his seat of PM
Reply:No one wants to be Bush.

Civilians can be questioned already, and if they have nothing to hide have nothing to worry about.

The trouble with warrants is the fact they take time and hold up investigations, meaning innocent people may be held longer than need be. If the warrant is going to be issued anyway, why bother waiting?

The trouble with bringing in new laws to stop search and arrest people, is everyone assumes it means we are heading toward a police state. If the govt did nothing towards controlling these crimes would the public prefer that instead? Almost certainly not, especially when they are on the receiving end of a crime. As crime changes and technology changes, so will the laws change in which to deal with them. Some for the better, some not. But im pretty certain Blair has made a big enough name for himself without wanting to be Bush. Mick
Reply:You outline your arguments in an intelligent fashion, but obviously approach it from a stand point of civil liberties...this is admirable, but I am of the opinion that civil liberties have gone too far...When you say Blair is planning, I presume you mean Blair as in the UK Govt...the last time I checked, the Prime Mininster did not propose legislation on this own account...it is generally a cabinet decision after a good deal of consultation.

The powers can only be used on reasonable suspicion that a crime has been or is about to be committed...That sounds entirely reasonable to me....If a bomb has been planted and exploded is it not reasonable to ask people leaving the area to account for their movements and identity.

I fail to see how as an obviously intelligent person, you can follow the shallow media statement that Blair is a poodle of Bush or as you say wants to be Bush....What Rot.

He stood by the American Govt. following the mass murder of 9/11 and I for one think he was right to do so...Ok, I will agree that the Iraq escalation was a move too far...but it is not generally the Iraq people who don't wish the Coalition forces to be there, but insurgents from Iraq and Syria who have their own agenda, and do not wish a western Super power in the area, who may bring stability and challenge their own position as regional powers.

So to answer your question, No Blair does not want to be Bush...although I suspect the American people wish that Bush was as articulate as Blair and must think it mad that we want to get rid of him before an election in much the same way we got rid of Margaret Thatcher.
Reply:Thought Blair and Bush were blood brothers
Reply:Stupid question.

and your 23 minutes ago comment is complete rubbish:

1. Blair is not resigning his seat, he is stepping down as Leader of the Labour Party. This will mean the Queen will have to invite the leader of the majority group in Parliament (which will be Gordon Brown) to form a Government, in effect making him PM.

2. Blair is stepping down in June, not July.

3. He hasn't been saying this for months - the media have been speculating about it for months.

Do you as Americans agree with Bush rewriting of the Constitution amendments?

2010-05-21T21:36:00.000-07:00

Bush urges partial declassification of Constitution, other documents

Washington, DC, September 28, 2006 - Stung by Democratic criticism following a New York Times leak of a government document that purportedly asserts, "all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights," President Bush has asked Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte to declassify key portions of several documents that had been kept for decades behind steel doors weighing several tons.

"Such assertions, taken out of context and leaked as we enter the stretch-run of a campaign, represents an obvious attempt to confuse voters," said Bush.

Within hours, Negroponte had released the partially redacted, ten-point conclusion of a document called the "Constitution."

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law [redacted] to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment II

A [redacted] Militia, being necessary to the security of [redacted] the right [redacted] people [redacted] shall not be infringed.

Amendment III

No [redacted] time of peace [redacted].

Amendment IV

The [redacted] people [redacted] their persons, houses, papers, and effects [redacted] shall [redacted] be violated, and [redacted] searched, and [redacted] seized.

Amendment V

No [redacted] compensation.

Amendment VI

In all criminal prosecutions, [redacted] the State [redacted] shall [redacted] be [redacted] against [redacted] obtaining witnesses [redacted] and [redacted] the Assistance of Counsel [redacted].

Amendment VII

In [redacted] jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury [redacted] in any Court of the United States [redacted].

Amendment VIII

Excessive [redacted] cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Amendment IX

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall [redacted] disparage others.

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, [redacted] are reserved [redacted].

This section, referred to as "The Bill of Rights," appears to undermine the claims made both by The New York Times and congressional Democrats. In a desparate bid to retain some credibility with their liberal base, Democrats have demanded the release of the entire document, knowing full-well that such a disclosure might reveal sources and methods and that President Bush would not risk the nation's security for the sake of short-term political considerations.

Do you as Americans agree with Bush rewriting of the Constitution amendments?
No, he is systematically taking away our Constitiutional rights. For more about GW Bush:

With the help of my father and our friends in the oil industry,

smog-ridden city in America.

I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money.

criminal record.

I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over

one billion dollars per week.

Treasury. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in

U.S. history.

I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in

any 12-month period.

I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period.

I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of

the US stock market.

In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their

jobs and that trend continues every month.

I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any

administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza

Rice, had a Chevron oil tanker named after her.

I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S.

President. I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for

receiving the most corporate campaign donations.

Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S.the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history.

pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation. I did so against the will of the United Nations, the majority of U.S. citizens, and the world community.

attacking Iraq and then blamed the lies on our British friends.

This is exactly what Bin Laden wanted. He hated America because of our freedoms. Because we could say what we want, and dress how we wanted, and write what we want. But after 9/11, slowly our rights as Americans are being taken away. Bush is just falling into Bin Ladens plan of turning america into another big brother dicatatorship.

No one messes with the Constitution and forces a revised one upon us. and why even create a new bill of rights(i seen nothing favorable to the people) what is being done here is again testing the peoples tolerance and by deploying that tactic will not be tolerated by the Free People of these United States.

Why is Bush always absent when bad things happen that he's responsible for but mourner in chief at VT?

By FRANK RICH

PRESIDENT BUSH has skipped the funerals of the troops he sent to Iraq. He took his sweet time to get to Katrina-devastated New Orleans. But last week he raced to Virginia Tech with an alacrity not seen since he hustled from Crawford to Washington to sign a bill interfering in Terri Schiavo's end-of-life medical care. Mr. Bush assumes the role of mourner in chief on a selective basis, and, as usual with the decider, the decisive factor is politics. Let Walter Reed erupt in scandal, and he'll take six weeks to show his face -- and on a Friday at that, to hide the story in the Saturday papers. The heinous slaughter in Blacksburg, Va., by contrast, was a rare opportunity for him to ostentatiously feel the pain of families whose suffering cannot be blamed on the administration.

But he couldn't inspire the kind of public acclaim that followed his post-9/11 visit to ground zero or the political comeback that buoyed his predecessor after Oklahoma City. The cancer on the Bush Whi te House, Iraq, is now spreading too fast. The president had barely returned to Washington when the empty hope of the ''surge'' was hideously mocked by a one-day Baghdad civilian death toll more than five times that of Blacksburg's. McClatchy Newspapers reported that the death rate for American troops over the past six months was at its all-time high for this war.

Why is Bush always absent when bad things happen that he's responsible for but mourner in chief at VT?
i think everybody is missing the forest for the trees.

bush is nothing but a part of the forest.

he's the one that grows to great heights and the gets far too heavy to support itself and just come a tumblin' down causing death and destruction to smaller, younger trees, all the way down.

if dick cheney would be scared of having to put in his resignation after America finds out what a slime ball he's been for decades upon decades, this would put pressure on the prezzy .

He would either reveal that he is the anti-Christ or he would just do another "Mission Accomplished" Remake, the movie.

Anything to boost morale, you know?

Yet another con job!

Reply:While Frank Rich's column is, obviously, left-leaning, he makes an important and valid point: Bush does everything he can to avoid showing his face and having to make public statements about any problem, event, or scandal that could be somehow linked to failures of his administration. But he is quick to show up for any politically-charged event where he can be seen as a leader that doesn't reflect badly on his administration. This is just part and parcel to the Bush Administration policy of never apologizing, never admitting error, and never taking responsibility.

Obviously, Bush can't be at the funeral of every soldier who dies in Iraq. But he COULD do something like holding a monthly ceremony to honor them, read their names, lead our nation in mourning them. Has he? No way. Because that would look bad for HIM.

Bush's Controversy ?

2010-05-21T21:34:00.002-07:00

Controversy

Bush's presidency has been characterized by a vigorous defense of "executive privilege", evidenced in such acts as signing Executive Order 13233, which suspends the release of presidential papers, tight control of Congressional inquiries into White House officers such as in the 9/11 Commission's interviews with Condoleezza Rice, Bush and Richard B. Cheney, and the generally high level of coordination between the White House, Congressional Republicans and Senate Republicans in both of Bush's terms. Many commentators have claimed that deference to executive privilege was one of the principal considerations in Bush's administration, when he proposed his three nominations for the Supreme Court, and appointed John R. Bolton to the United Nations.[5][6]

Bush's Controversy ?
For the individual asking what the question is:

"Now the question: Why do the 25% that still support Bush, still support him and his war in Iraq ?"

Because most people who decide that they approve of somebody CAN NOT tolerate seeing a negative truth and having to re-examine their thoughts. The vast majority of our population has NOT served a day in service, so they do not have an appreciation for what the Constitution gives, nor are they concerned with what is quickly being trampled on.

Reply:they only watch fox news,and have a closed mind to real facts .there will always be supporters of any President, they voted for him and do not wish to admit there mistake.
Reply:I'm way too tired to address all your statements, so I'll stick to one for now. In regards the enemy combatants, and their due process. The Geneva convention does not recognize Al Queda or any other terrorist organization seeing that they do not have uniforms or a country. Why are you sticking up for the rights of terrorists?? We put them up at 4-star Gitmo, and they cut off the heads of their prisoners...and you want to give them the same rights as an American??? Hopefully when the Dems shut down all the counter terror measures Bush has implemented, and the ones that you criticize...the next terror attack takes the life of someone you care about, as 9/11 did for me.

So they are ripe for manipulation by a tough sounding, plain talking, 'regular guy' who fuels their fear with his irrational rhetoric and then takes action that those people can pretend is making them safer.

Sort of like sheep.

EURO is gaining and the dollars has to come no matter what the pundits predict.

This is the first time since decades of the USA dollar being strong

If the answer is, BUSH fails then, why he still holding on?

According to the papers TV and magazine in finance and the politics *** economy, the soldiers are fatigued and the amours are worn out. They in Iraq and Afghanistan need new. Who will buy when the EU is gaining and Dollar is losing?

Kyle Bush pushed out because hes a BUSH?

Kyle has started showing his rotten Bush attitude just like his brother. Probably why hes getting his walking papers from Hendrix ... ya' think?

Kyle Bush pushed out because hes a BUSH?
It you are getting paid that much money , and you really wanna piss your boss off, wreck the car , and then while your crew is busting their *** to fix it , leave the track. That will get you your walking papers.
Reply:no he was not pushed out they just couldn't come to an agreement with him he has a bit at an attitude anyways
Reply:no, kyle wanted to leave... and his name is BUSCH not bush!
Reply:Yep, I agree. He needs to grow up and do it fast. Because the competition is here to stay and with the attitude like he's got he won't be going anywhere. Maybe he can switch and go to DEI and whine.....
Reply:pretty much kyle needs to grow up a little bit. he leaving hendrick because he has disrespected rick hedrick and his employees. i think he was leaving hendrick before this whole jr thing came up and when jr left dei it gave rick hendrick the opportunity to cut kyle loose a year earlier and bring in jr.
Reply:Kyle will win more races than Jr next season no matter what team he ends up with. Kyle is a racer, Jr only knows how to drive a car fast. Racing is a different animal.
Reply:Nope. He was talking with other teams BEFORE Jr. decided to leave DEI. Hendrick was trying to keep Kyle, extend his contract, but he didn't WANT to stay. So that made room for Hendrick to sign Jr. One has nothing to do with the other.
Reply:Yes. Jr. is a great big name.And the Bushes are a bit of a negative attitude.The sport needs Jr.It can do without Gordon,I mean, it can do without the Bushes!
Reply:I think he was pushed out because Jr. will bring in a lot more money and fans. I hope Kyle wins some more races in the #5 before he goes.
Reply:Any posters here as old as I am will remember when Dale Earnhardt was in the same position about 25 years ago, he'd wreck people (or himself) just about every week, would drive over his head, and tear up his equipment and wind up a DNF. Many people said he'd never amount to anything and shouldn't be allowed in a race car, but he went on to win 7 championships. Kyle will be the next Earnhardt if he also gets control of his temperament as Dale did, and 20 years from now he may well be a 7 time champion. Junior will be lucky to ever get 1 or 2 championships.
Reply:Ok...first off, his name is spelled "Busch". I see someone already said that, thank you for that... I agree Kyle does have an attitude problem, but I have to give props to Kurt, he has changed alot. He was so nice to me when I met him it was almost like he was on..I don't know..medication or something.
Reply:You are wrong, Kyle's contract is up and he wasn't interested in re-signing. He's a way better driver than Jr. anyway, what's going to be funny is if Kyle goes to Jr's old car and wins a championship(like his brother lmao) that would set some people straight on Jr's abilities.
Reply:seems like ALL bush's have very LOW approval ratings

at least these two didn't get a lot of people killed with lies
Reply:I pretty sure that had something to do with it, but he's a pretty hot free agent now because of his driving talents. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Reply:HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Hendrick saw that the Bush needed some trimming so he can make some room in the yard for the new Big Dawg!! Now all that's left is a sad little shrub. But don't worry Kyle fans, he'll grow back soon.................................

well ........maybe.
Reply:Kyle wasn't pushed out, he asked for an early release from his contract that would have been up in 2008. Why he would want to leave the most successful team in NASCAR of late, I have no idea. I'm not a Busch fan (either one), and this certainly didn't help my opinion of Kyle. However, there is still a good chance that he will still be driving with a Hendrick motor if he drives with Ginn or Haas next year. If he decides to break from Hendrick though, he will be a sought after driver because, like him or not, he's loaded with driving talent. He just has trouble getting all that talent under control sometimes.
Reply:hes got a lot of offers for someone thats supposedly so rotten...look for Gibbs or Ginn
Reply:Kyle Busch is a punk, he deserves what he gets. It ain't got nothing to do with being a Busch, he just got to big for his britches, without a true cause, so what if he can race, he has a piss poor attitude and that is what has caused him to sink. Ha Ha Ha.

"9 soldiers die in Iraq on page 6" "Bush dances with White House visitors Pg 1, how does this make you feel?

2010-05-21T21:33:00.002-07:00

This week Bush had some visitors to the White House, he was taped doing a dance with them and playing the congos with them, he looked like he was having such a good time.

Many news channels showed the tape and they spun the story like Bush was doing a good and funny thing.

Meanwile 9 soldiers died in Iraq. This got little air time and could be found on page 6 in most Republican owned newspapers (Gannette media corperate ownerships of several houndred news papers accross the United States)

So how do you feel about Bush having so much fun wile the soldiers fighting in Iraq are dying?

Your "question" proves that nobody can make anyone believe or say what they want.

The soldiers are fighting for FREEDOM so people CAN have fun and dance.

Tell me if you ever have fun? Maybe you shouldn't because soldiers have died.
Reply:The real honest to God truth of what the original loyal Bushie is about. He never has cared anything at all for the US troops dying in Iraq. Perhaps he isn't satisfied enough of the numbers died, so he is sending more, and soon more again.

And don't forget- I'm a republican.
Reply:President Bush doesn't control what the news shows. If you have a problem with them giving little time to our soldiers that have died in Iraq, which I actually agree with you, then contact them and complain.

I don't think it makes President Bush horrible because he danced around with some visitors at the White House. I'm a Military wife and an American and it bothers me every-time we lose a solider in Iraq, but life at home doesn't stop. Believe it or not, President Bush does have other duties besides the Iraqi war, and some of those duties include entertaining people at the White House!

Does the American Press Give George W Bush a Pass and Don't Critique his Economic Policies?

2010-05-21T21:33:00.000-07:00

The fact that the news papers columnists like George Will are for the mst part Bush followers will this be a big factor?

Does the American Press Give George W Bush a Pass and Don't Critique his Economic Policies?
I have to agree with you -- if the press publishes you, you are able to accomplish more -- whether it is good or bad.

Bush has plunged the nation into a 3 trillion dollar deficit through his war, promises, and other things. A lot of bad business went on during the on-going war that shames Americans. We are supposed to be a God fearing, faithful nation, yet the soldiers who interviewed prisoners at Guantanamo and in third world prisons used pure torture. USA is NOT supposed to do that -- we are supposed to follow the Geneva convention rules.

How can we preach one thing and do another -- it is because the citizens, like me and many others, do not have any power when it comes right down to it. Freedom and living in the USA is one of the truest gifts I have, and I thank my parents for living here when I was born.

This is supposed to be a democratic nation because we have elections -- but whomever is elected is then not held to the standards we espouse for the world. It is not our business to go into other countries, who have lived in certain circumstances for years, and change their rules of government.

We can educate the leaders on the benefits of free enterprise, and help them get the poor on their feet with knowledge about growing food, etc. We can help educate the populace. But, we also should do this for our own country first. We should have no homeless, no starving, no uneducated people, but we do. The money is spent on other countries.

And to top that off, we have out sourced jobs -- where does that leave Americans -- hopeless.
Reply:uh which papers do you read? I have never seen the press say anything nice about the president, its why we call it the Liberal Press....all I ever see them do is trash talk the republicans and kiss up to the dems..I only know of one newspaper that doesn't do that, they look at history, world economics and the political climate of the entire world...alas....I can't afford that paper anymore....but "Investors Business Daily" is the only paper I would ever recommend.

You want to bring up Bush's lies? How about Hussein's lies? He bears the ultimate responsibility for leading the world to believe he had wmd when he MAY not have....the jury is still out on that one, and unless we dig up the entire country the jury will remain out.

Another Bush Joke?

2010-05-21T21:32:00.003-07:00

In light of the previous post, here is an old Bush joke that you have probably heard before. But if you haven't, you can rate it.

George Bush looks out his bedroom window one January morning. During the night, someone has peed "W s*cks" in a snowbank near the window. Enraged, George immediately calls the FBI to investigate. "This is an outrage!!" George yells, "I want you to find out who is responsible for this right now!!"

So a team of investigators goes out into the snowbank and runs some tests. A half an hour later, a FBI agent reports back to the President".

"Mr. President, I have some good news and bad news for you", the investigator starts. "The good news is that a urine analysis indicates that the urine belongs to former President Clinton."

"Ooohh." Bush laughs and rings his hands, "Once I go to the papers with this, I'm going to bring down the Democratic Party. What's the bad news?"

The FBI agent says, "It's Laura's handwriting."

Another Bush Joke?
Now that one is funny.

Here's one for you (but it's a true story; you can even read it verbatim in books about Ronald Reagan). Reagan had a legendary sense of humor, and he liked poking fun at his staid Vice President. George H.W. Bush. So here's the real conversation. RR = Reagan, GB = George H.W. Bush, Sr.

RR: George, did you know that condoms are one of the United States' biggest exports?

GB: No, I did not know that sir.

RR: And did you know that printed on every condom is the phrase "Proudly Made in the United States of America!"

GB: No, that's really amazing, but I must admit I have never noticed that.

RR: Well, George, you have to unroll the condom ALL THE WAY to read it !
