Bush claims more powers than King George III

So who is going to impeache him?
Me? You?

I dont know, but Everyone Loves Raymond is on.

Oh snap, really?
World politics and the future of the nation takes a back seat to Everybody Loves Raymond any day of the week.

So yea, good luck with that Bush mess.
See ya.
[/sarcasm]

Nythology , stephen thompsons response did say

I dont know, but American Idol is on.

But i guess he changed it cos he thought people might think him shallow

LOL

No, I just changed the channel and realized that I totally liked Everyone Loves Raymond wayyyyyyy more than American Idol.

my point here, is that in the days of King George, they didnt have that distracting fun box we call a TV. TV culture is marked largely by apathy and passivity. This is why Bush gets away with so much.

Bush already ignores whatever law fails to suit his requirements. This is nothing new.

ps

Mythbusters rules !!!

old news. january 2008 approaches.

It's not Bush it's government period. He wasn't the start of this. He's not only an easier target, he's more apparent.

Treason!

It is all the corporate media spending that has this nation on the brink.

It is a shame that another election might be stolen was again from the american people.

BWAHAHAHA!!!!! What a wonderful comparison -- and I think it's great that it reminds us all, once again, that we need to clean house this November. We need someone in office with high ethical principles and minimal ties to the power-hungry [read: lobbyist] groups that are entrenched in Washington.... wonder who we should choose...????? :D

Nail on the head Stephen--we're sitting in front of this computer instead of rallying on the streets...

I think we need a full board revolution, personally... We don't even have a democracy (or even a half-decent republic for that matter) so screw it, REVOLT!!!

I am continually amazed at people's ho-hum attitude toward Bush's usurpation of extraordinary powers as well as his gutting of the Constitution. The blithe response I hear all too often in response to my objections to legislation like to the Patriot Act is "If you don't do anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about." There have been too many people detained in Guantanamo Bay, I fear, who would beg to differ with that view. Just because the President keeps using the word "evil" as his excuse, does not mean that all he does or has done is right or "good."

I do not think people have enough guts nor gumption to preform a revolt other than through grandiose speech.

• A strong power in the natural law is people are responsible for their actions. The will of the people is to have in contract the government to do that will. We may either have a good servant at a given time or a wayward servant. The government is merely a contract for the people to do a good task for us. We are its master and it is a servant to us.
The only people that really suffer this are the people in the government or depend on it for their lives.
The government either wins for America or it is negotiated on elected terms. It cannot surrender for us as it is only our servant.
Strangely, if you think about it, George Bush is trying to get all the money out of the treasury that is only 300 yards from the white house. He has to play us off to get that, and yet should just get an executive buyout from the congress since it is clear all he wants is the money and we have been trained to expect better from the executive office.
George Bush took advantage of a new system that has yet to establish checks and balances. The schools he went to have been known to be superior so we expected him to match their quality. Obviously, he was socially promoted as much as a ghetto child graduates so then next child can move up.
He is the worst president the USA has ever had and this is new to independents, republicans, and democrats that all somewhat have varying stages to executive authority in politics.

Life is sacred. You don't need a bad person. You don't need to take their life; they must go to their own. I would not want to be judged by a creator of life and be in a position that casually dismissed it for consumer needs and find a loving God is going to want me based on a record that had contempt for life. We know too little about life to casually take it. Anyway, if it is to be a game, why get rid of all the players? You need the players to play the game. Can't we get a reverse in Hell? Salt is cheaper buy the train load; it is a superior to inferior world. If they take the mind they get the body. We have been taken off balance in a new system that has superseded classical checks and balances.


These times are the time that the books come out on all the people who will say it was just their job and they could do nothing about it. America right, not wrong is my sticker.

Bush can be impeached with a American (of course) public 2/3 of the population of age, the vote counted on the internet by a big 5 accounting firm. The vote then attested with a server to the people. This vote submitted to Congress is the will of the people and a government the way the real for fathers intended. Impeach is charge enough, the courtesy of what is optional, impeach in of itself is enough. He can go down in history as it was a fickle time in America and he is untouched.

Yes, Bush is not a good president.

Did you know that Abe Lincoln, the beloved defender of civil rights and freedom, suspended nearly all politcal freedoms during the civil war? AND listened in on telegraphs?

Did you know that during WWI, it was a federal offense to speak out against the government?

And in WWII, Hollywood actors were forced to sell war bonds, and anti-war riots were brutally put down?

ALL THESE EVENTS are hailed as the proudest moments in US history.

If nothing happens to this son of a BITCH do we really have a leg to stand on. We can do something if enough people are really pissed off. If we dont i wonder if we deserve to survive as a country?

Bush nor any other dictator would not be able to claim anything that we the people did not give them freely. And this has been in motion much longer than just the last eight years. A distracted dumbed down populace is the perfect ingredient for what we see happening now. The answer then is to read, inform yourself, and stand up to it. There are more of us than them... once we realize that we can get back what we allowed to be taken from us, but do we deserve it? The longer we keep putting up "saviors" we think will come save the day for us so we don't have to do anything ourselves, the longer we will continue to be deceived.

Those who founded this country did not sit and allow George III to rule them... they changed their government and sacrificed their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to bring it about.The people of today on the whole don't have that same spirit as it has been sucked out by media distractions designed to keep them pre-occupied and apathetic.You want progress and justice? Turn off your tv and read. And then demand it.

Thing is, we do it with drugs now. The straight jacket is neurological.

god save george the second

Bush really needs to be impeached out of Office - especially for flushing the country down the hole.

Terrorism is declining around the world.

We all live in a safe little bubble called the USA. Our forefathers built it up and gave it to us to live in. We really ****ed it up, didn't we? Our WWII era parents spoiled us, and gave us every opportunity, yet even today the best that we can do is try to destroy the very system that gives us our safety and freedom.

This article makes me sick. Grow up, everybody.

It is the very substance of freedom that we declare Bush to be a man without principles and that he has seriously taken our country where no man should have. It is beyond shameful!

We're in Nazi-America right now. Bush is Hitler reborn.

Impeachment should have happened years ago...

Saber do you live on a different planet to the rest of us?
The only safe little bubble is in your own head and even that wont be safe for long

check out this video on utube, very funny and its a good song

You have to wonder about the mindset of a man like bush. Is he simply uncreative and can't think of ways to resolve issues within the confines of the Constitution or is he a petty dictator who doesn't give a rats ass what anyone thinks of him. Regardless he and cheney will have to face the music eventually. With people like Scott McLellan coming out and telling us what went on and with him leaving office soon, it's only a matter of time before he has to pay for his crimes.

Thank you JanforGore. (I'm sorry I wasn't NickforGore in 2000.)

Granted, we (the people) elected him. Twice. I claim responsibility for the first time, not the second.

While I agree that he has pushed the law to it's limits, how many people can say they've actually done something to protest his actions?

Who has written their senators and representatives? Made time to attend public meetings within individual communities?

Y'all trying to claim you didn't have blood in your eyes and rage pulsating thru your body on 9-12-01

Nothing is ever as simple as the President, or the news headlines, try to make it. We cannot act as if we were innocent in any circumstance unless we know we are. It is not right to get young men to enlist to fight in a war (and possibly die) unless we tell them the truth about that war -- not lies caluculated to trick the nation into doing something we would do had we known the truth. Character matters; character is a president, character in our foreign relations, and character (truth and integrity) in media too. And we won't have any of these things unless we demand them and refuse to settle for anything less.

Bush is 'The Idiot King'...too caught up in his own illusion of self importance...time to revolt...time to vote...soon...

johnmcstupid,anything but! the video was great!!lol!!

God, I hope that history records all of this administrations transgrssions in tact. A lesson in Constitution tampering, lying to the citizens, devious plots to undermind the economy, and his neglect of this planet. More...

How you people stand for Bush is beyond me, but there again you dont stand do you , you sit on your arses and do nothing but whinge

Talk is cheap...living in the Dumbdom of king george, is respite for the tyrant's fate...

What perfect world do you live in..?
