He’s taking his ball and going home.

If he can’t do it **his** way, he won’t do it at all. He’s the Decider, dammit! Y’all are putting Americans at risk, i.e., those Americans in the administration that concocted this policy and those that carried it out.

Every day, more and more evidence is presented that our leaders have repeatedly broken international and national laws - and now it’s obvious that he is trying desperately to retroactively cover his ass - he and his fellow criminals may have “presidential immunity” while
in office, but when they are once again ‘regular citizens’, they become just as liable for prosecutions as any of us.  Isn’t that what ‘equal under the law’ means?  Stand strong, Congress, or you will be found as accomplices in some of the most egregious criminal activities in our generation. And politicians still have to find a way to keep getting elected, long after these bozos are out of office.  It’s a cruel hard world out there in the working world, and very few politicians even remember what real work is like for the rest of us.  GW never, ever, had to do anything even remotely considered work, except maybe lifting beers and coke straws. Not exactly ‘tote that bale and haul that barge’.
If all Americans are expected to make sacrifices in the ‘War on Terror’ - what’s been the sacrifice of the 1% of 1% group that he hangs out with? Oh yeah, they didn’t have a blue Mazerati, so he had to wait a week, or get a black one instead!  Poor baby.

CARLOS You said it all.

These guys live in a bubble talking to and believing only themselves. They appoint deputies based on ideological and sycophantic moral and intellectual capabilities only.

That so much has gone wrong under Bush is actually to be expected.

Just think. When Bush had the opportunity to appoint a new Supreme Court Justice and possibly change the course and nature of American jurisprudence for decades, what did he do?

He nominated the middling intelligent, relatively inexperienced, generally unqualified Harriet Miers whose main qualification it would seem was to slavishly adore him.

Even Steven Hawkings would be at a loss to explain the non-reality-based dimensions of the Bush et al universe. These nutters approach the world stage basing their pronouncements on what they desire to have as results while manning the Command Module with only umbilically linked inexperienced ideologues.

God help us; two more years.

EXORCISE YOUR RIGHT, VOTE !!

There MUST be something new in the water supply that he and the rest of his “staff” are drinking… They are ALL delusional OR they believe that in their non-reality based world people actually care what he thinks!

Bush is in deep trouble. He has confessed that he had detainees in secret prisons being tortured. He is now asking the congress to give him cover by passing a retroactive law defining what we feel to be torture and thereby protecting him from war crime charges and later trial at the Hague. Believe me his ass is as tight as a vice.

G.W. Bush is a born again Christian who has accepted Christ as his savior. Who has adopted torture as his favorite sport. Does anyone see a problem here? Does anyone find torture as Christ like.
A more truthful statement might be , anyone that voted for this idiot may be complicit in breaking the ten commandments. (The mass murder of innocents).  Run this past your minister.

Watching the vacuous President and the mindful media, two questions beg answering:

1) Why doesn’t every American have the right to examine the President’s past and current medications, therapy progress, and brain scan?

2) Why isn’t this information on every ballot?

“Then there is the larger danger of permitting nuclear weapons to be acquired by religious fanatics seized with an eschatological belief in the imminent apocalypse and in their own divine duty to hasten the End of Days.”

Seems to me the description fits equally well the mullahs and the fundamentalist baptist neocons in Washington.

“The mullahs are infinitely more likely to use these weapons than anyone in the history of the nuclear age.”

No. This contest was won 60 years ago, at the start of the nuclear age, by a country named the United States of America, against Japanese civilians. The probability of the US of A using the nuclear weapon in the history of the nuclear age is 100%, as it has been done already.

“Every city in the civilized world will live under the specter of instant annihilation delivered either by missile or by terrorist.”

Just like 40 years ago during the cold war. I remember adverts for personal nuclear shelters. We’ve been there, nothing new.

the war on terror is a lie. we’re coming after you, bush. prepare for the life of prison homosexuality ( rough trade style ) you have always craved.

I need to know because I cannot find a reason any more. Can a regular american shrink tell me what kind of lunatic goes on and on, as if the world and his country was actually listening to him or even caring about what he says???

Please…
