Bush is not THE KING of America |
BUSH AGAIN PUSHES 'MIND-BOGGLINGLY EXPANSIVE CONCEPTION' OF EXECUTIVE POWER:
Earlier this month, President Bush released a signing statement on the
Patriot Act that "nearly went unnoticed." The legislation "contained several
oversight provisions intended to make sure the FBI did not abuse the special
terrorism-related powers to search homes and secretly seize papers."
Yet in his signing statement on the bill, Bush said he "did not consider
himself bound to tell Congress how the Patriot Act powers were being used
and that, despite the law's requirements, he could withhold the
information."
"Past presidents occasionally used such signing statements to describe their
interpretations of laws, but Bush has expanded the practice." Late last
year, he released a similar statement after signing the torture ban into law
that "quietly reserved the right to bypass the law under his powers as
commander in chief."
New York University law professor David Golove said Bush's propensity for
the statements is symptomatic of the White House's "mind-bogglingly
expansive conception" of executive power.

Bush is a President, not a Monarch. Bush DOES NOT have absolute rule over
the United States.
Why is it every Republican President since Nixon thinks he's some kind of
King?
Bush is insane.

RIGHT-O, because another branch of government has oversight powers! The
Patriot Act is reviewed quaterly by the SUPREME COURT! Guess, it's back
to square one with you godless american hating homo libs!
Bush is a President, not a Monarch. Bush DOES NOT have absolute rule over
the United States.
nobody said he did.

As compared to Bubba Bill Clinton?
Bush is insane.

Ten Telltale Signs of GOP Disease
By Bob Burnett
You've probably seen the posters or read the pamphlets that warn of
the telltale signs of sexually transmitted diseases.
You know, lovely symptoms like inflamed genitals.
There should be similar warnings about another epidemic threatening
America--dreadful GOP disease.
As a public service, here are the ten telltale signs of Republican
plague:
1. You keep lying, even when it's apparent to everyone that you're
lying:
Insist that the situation in Iraq is not a civil war;
Bush tax cuts are good for the economy;
Republicans are fostering Democracy.
Repeat things that are not only untrue, but are absurd: George W. Bush
cares about civil rights.
You can't stop;
you're sick;
you're a Republican.
2. No matter how bad things get, assert that President Bush is doing a
great job.
Even when there are obvious screw-ups--the reaction to 9/11, the
occupation of Iraq, and the response to Katrina--block all meaningful
investigations, no matter how impartial.
Steadfastly maintain that Dubya knows what he's doing, even when it's
apparent to most of the public that he not only doesn't have a plan to
fix the problem, he doesn't get that there is a problem.
You're inflexible;
you're stuck;
you're a Republican.
3. Keep repeating that the situation in Iraq is getting better.
Say that you see the light at the end of the tunnel, even if there's
no light and it's a bottomless pit.
Tell Americans that Iraqis want us there and our troops believe in
their mission, even when polls say that Iraqis ask us to leave and our
troops want to come home.
Insist that the press isn't reporting the good news, even when the
only positive stories are those planted by your toadies.
You're strident;
you're in denial;
you're a Republican.
4. Don't accept any criticism, no matter how non-partisan or well
intended.
Call your critics ignorant, devious, unwitting pawns of sinister
forces.
Suggest that anyone who criticizes George Bush, ***** Cheney, or Don
Rumsfeld is unpatriotic;
that they are aiding and abetting Al Qaeda.
You're relentless;
you're a fear-monger;
you're a Republican.
5. Stay on offense.
No matter what happens, keep pushing your agenda.
Remember Karl Rove's second commandment:
When in doubt, attack.
If one of your tactics is blocked, such as private social security
accounts, immediately go to the next, reduction of entitlements.
Never let your enemies see you sweat.
Never forget that you owe your supporters, big.
You're aggressive;
you're ruthless;
you're a Republican.
6. Insist that you are pro-women and pro-family.
As "proof," periodically take the time to parade all the "babes" in
the Bush Administration, Condoleezza Rice and Harriet Miers.
Then take action on every level to ensure that women remain
second-class citizens and that American families get the shaft.
Insist that the state rather than a woman and her family should make
private medical decisions.
You're macho;
you're sexist;
you're a Republican,
7. Tell everyone that you're the Party of peace, the Party that wants
to spread democracy throughout the world.
Then create the largest peacetime standing army in US history.
Make sure that America spends more on defense than the entire rest of
the world.
Relentlessly feed the military-industrial complex.
Prowl through the world planting US bases, supporting autocrats, and
protecting the interests of multi-national corporations.
Preach peace and democracy; practice war and plutocracy.
You're predatory;
you're imperialist;
you're a Republican.
8. Maintain the economy is going great.
No matter how bad things get, how large the national debt, or how huge
the gap between America's haves and have-nots, push for more tax cuts.
Insist that they're a panacea, a modern snake oil that will cure all
ills. Keep promising America that good times are just ahead and the
yellow-brick road is lined with tax cuts.
Talk equality and opportunity;
practice elitism and favoritism.
You're shameless;
you're greedy;
you're a Republican.
9. Manipulate the truth.
Whenever there is bad news, blame it on the press.
Accuse the mass media of distortion;
say they aren't telling the whole story.
Help them out, make up some good news.
Harass reporters at all your press conferences;
punish anyone who asks a tough question.
Support the illusion that Fox News is fair and balanced and that Rush
Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly are impartial commentators.
You're duplicitous;
you're biased;
you're a Republican.
10. Above all, never admit a mistake.
Remember Karl Rove's first commandment:
Never show weakness.
Adopt the motto: only wimps admit mistakes;
when the going gets tough, the tough attack their enemies.
Say the Bush Administration hasn't made mistakes;
it's set lofty goals that take hard, hard work to achieve.
Keep your eyes on the stars, your nose to grindstone and both hands
protecting your *****.
You've no shame;
you've contracted an incurable disease;
you're a Republican.

Is the topic about Bush? Yes.

There are no facts to refute.
Case closed.
