Oh, that’s easy - he should start a war somewhere! Great leaders are always known for their military campaigns and large battles.

Look at Britain’s Margaret Thatcher. She was a lame duck from the cold war era with failed domestic policies until ‘she’ invaded the Falkland islands.

Known as Attilla the Hen or the face that sank the General Belgrano and drowned a thousand sailors, she rose to everlasting glory on that far-flung victory.

What great deeds could Bush perform? Think, man, think! Great will be the nation which plunders the Earth but loses its chance to survive in a nuclear winter of its own making.

Imagine - yet another Aztec nation rising upon the blood-sacrifices of its enemies and then vanishing as mysteriously as it came! What jolly sport, eh?

He will block pull out bill means more U.S. troops die in vain and more innocent Iraqis shed their blood. Only Cheney’s Halliburton will make huge benefits from 124 additional billions in war chest.

The price of phantom glory is so high !

He would block everything but dare not block Cheney bring home huge checks from Halliburton.

Bush/Cheney hands are now bathed in blood not only that of from our troops but also from innocent Iraqis.

If the ‘troops’ aren’t brought home soon, they’ll have something to say about it themselves ......15 months is a very long tour of duty!

If Bush does veto the bill to try to save face, it should provide congress with a good trigger to impeach him as well as Cheney and whoever else.

Writeyour representitives, make your voice known, make them do their job in representing you. Encourage open hearings of impeachment followed by indictment for their crimes. There’s nothing more important then getting these people out of the White House. We can’t afford to wait untill 2008. In fact, thats another good slogan. As their house of cards comes crashing down around them , they are being revealed to even their former supporters as the inept, and reckless and dangerous criminals they are. There never has been a real “War on Terror” that has always been just another shiny label used to package a different agenda, one that they know a majority wouldn’t buy into if we were told the truth. Where is the voice of our supposed “Liberal Media” in discussing the permenent bases that bu$h is building with billions of our tax dollars ? Where’s the liberal media in discussing the huge amount of money going to pay for Blackwater and the other rent a soldier outfits that aren’t accountable for their actions ? Our major media dosen’t even approach being liberal when it comes to informing us, day to day, as to whats really going on. Talk to anyone who has travelled outside the US, ask them if their news looks the same as ours. Let them tell you how they tune into to blood soaked bomb victims in the streets of Baghdad every day. If our media was showing the real face of war it wouldn’t have taken this long for more americans to wake-up and realize, like the rest of the world did long ago, that this war of aggression was something they didn’t use to equate with the USA, but now they do. We can no longer even pretend were the good guys. Does anyone believe bu$h hasn’t created many times more terrorists by his actions while in office ? Bu$h has done more to recruit followers to Bin Laden’s and other other fundementalist hate filled organization(s) then Bin Laden himself could have hoped for and neither of them want it to end anytime soon. How many billions of our nations revenue will they be permitted to squander away from the needs of the american people, to kill others half a world away all for control of the regions oil. The stuff that is out in the open now is just the tip of the iceberg of what these criminals have been working at these past 6 years. The real reasons for our invasion are starting to be talk even amongst a few folks running for office..Its has always been all lies, from the very beginning..and the longer it went on, with the apparent blessing of a republican party acting as co-conspiritors, the more emboldened these traitors became. All thru their tenure they have displayed nothing but contempt for our democracy. They are the worst and most obvious of traiters america has ever had holding the most powerfull positions on the planet while they shepard the dissolution of our democracy.

It wouldn’t surprise me - because he’s as mad as a hatter - if Bush “wrote” a bill, handed it to one of his bootlicks on the House floor with instructions to submit it the House. AND, he would be surprised as hell if Congress objected.  Afterall, that is what his daily protestations amount to - the only bill I’ll sign is one that conforms to my wishes.

Of course any president likes it when Congress is on his page, but the difference between Mr. Bush and other presidents is Mr. Bush believes his is the ONLY page: He is sole ruler of the realm. (He gets very testy when anyone suggests such is not the case - according to the Constitution.)

It’s about time we jettisoned Leader of the Free World, Commander-in-Chief, God-like status the American presidency has become. (Must we stand when the most high pooh-bah enters a room?  We’ve even taken to bowing.)  And, Bush isn’t the only ego-maniac in the land and given the hoopla, zillions of bucks not to mention media coverage of any future president of this fast deteriorating democracy, whoever it is, we just might end up with another Bush because we’re created one.

I wish his idiot father would have pulled out in time.

If he had, we wouldn’t be having this conversation right now.

Crude, yet true.

Time for the Congress to act. Now is the time for Impeachment. The President will not listen to the American people. Time to remove him from office, he is becoming a threat to all mankind. He is President, not a dictator. Remove the whole gang in the White House, they have brought nothing but shame on America.

Maybe the more Bush sticks to his insane plans, the more Americans will turn against him. This seems to have been the pattern so far.

The tide has turned against Bush, Cheney and their neocon, chicken hawk and war profiteer associates.

They may get desperate and try to declare martial law after another 9/11-type event, and that is something to be very concerned about.

Yet, many of us believe that our democracy and society will survive, prevail and thrive after this dark era of Bush-Cheney ends. For more on this:

What’re happening in Iraq and Afghanistan now have to be be stopped immediately; if not the face of humanity will surely be deformed due to horrified acts of invasion forces leading by this lawless administration.

All the Bush/Cheney gang are trying to do is keep the troops in Iraq long enough for them to skip town and leave their mess in the next administration’s lap. Period. They don’t give a rat’s ass about the troops (I know, no need to state the obvious).

What the Democrats should do is send Bush their bill, giving him all the funding he is asking for, and with the pullout dates, and tell him there will not be another bill if he vetoes it. None of this back and forth. One shot. If you veto it, then tell your generals to start packing up, we’re moving on to new business.

If Bush wants to use the troops as hostages in his pissing contest to show everyone that he is the ‘decider’, then let him.
