I''ll gladly 2nd that. Perhaps someday after a trial in an international court (which I''d also gladly support turning his lying murdering as*s over to) he''ll get a sentence like that, one he so richly deserves. - Reply to this comment

The conviction to fix these problems doesn''t currently exist in the power positions of our government. The only guy that has the moxy and guts to challenge big business is Ron Paul, and that''s why you don''t hear about him, he gets shut out of the mainstream press, because big business owns it.

- "Bush Fighting Lame Duck Status"
Bush and Lame, rarely have two words ever gone together so well. Short of Bush and Convicted or Bush and Imprisoned, I can think of few others that sing as well together.
Of course being a lame duck means he bears even closer watching and harder opposition. He has nothing to lose since even a dolt like him must realize he''ll be thought of by history as the worst and most destructive president of all time (though I''m proud to say he was never MY president). Since he has nothing to lose he will, at the urging of his own Hermann Goering, the fat tub of pig guts Di*ck Cheney, attack Iran with nuclear weapons, thereby starting a crisis that we "require" him to suspend the Constitution and hold onto power. Or at least the little bas***** will try it. - Reply to this comment

Bush is mostly fighting to spin his way out of the fact that everything he touches turns to sh*t and that his Presidency is a complete and total failure.- Reply to this comment

Your being self-rightgeous again. The only thing I will be sorry for in the future is how much work and money it is going to take to fix the messes Bush & co left behind.
Bush is not displaying courage in his convictions. What convictions? That his way is the only way to go? That is not conviction, that is arrogance when his way has led to nothing but death and destruction in Iraq, breaking laws that have stood for 230 years. Laws that were put in place expressly to PREVENT the instrusion of Big Govn in the publics lives.
His list of failures because of his "convictions" are as follows in order of importance to me.
Iraq is a quagmire costing 12 billion a month with no end in sight.
No badly needed healthcare reform.
No badly needed immigration reform.
No badly needed education reform.
No badly needed protection of the environment.
No badly needed energy reforms.
No badly needed money to fix old age infrastructure.
I could go on and on. Where is the conviction to fix these problems. In every single case, the problem either did not exist and he created it or is in worse condition now than before he took office. - Reply to this comment
- "Having the courage of your convictions and the determination to protect your Country which is the oath of office every President takes is precisely what is expected of ant President."
mudbutt - seriously, enough of the flag-waving, chest-thumping patriotism! It sure is easy to be courageous when you''re sending other people''s children to die in another country''s civil war, and then not even have the decency to attend ONE...ONE funeral. Oh, and determination to protect your country? That''s great, as long as it''s done IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE COUNTRY. With your two qualifications of being a president, any yahoo could be one, not to mention notable dictators like Hitler and Stalin.
Come up with some new material - if this were Clinton, you''d be having a heyday, so suck it up and deal with it...everyone knows Bush will go down as one of the worst presidents in history. - Reply to this comment

Absolutely correct, but you see Bush and his supporters don''t understand or accept that there ARE checks and balances. They all failed basic American civics class because they think he''s above being held in check by the Congress or the Courts. They think being elected (even in a flawed election like his) makes him a KING or a new Hitler, with all the power his VP says he has. They would have you believe their lies that the president answers to no one. He does. He answers to the American people via our Representatives in Congress and directly. He works for us, we do not report to him. That only happens in a complete monarchy or a fascist dictatorship, both of which Bush and his supporters seem to think we have here in America. They''re lying. - Reply to this comment

Courage and the as*swipe Bush in the same phrase is an oxymoron. He proved during Vietnam that guts are one thing he does not have around as anything other then to pour more booze into. He won''t go down in history as man that stood against the polls, but rather as an ideologue who didn''t know when to shut up and do as he''s told by his bosses, us. In case you''ve forgotten, he works for the people. - Reply to this comment
- Lame? Oh yes! Duck? Naw...lame as*s is more like it!
Five will get you ten the IF Bush actually leaves at the end of his term (hey there may be a "crisis" (like a war with Iran)that requires him to suspend the Constitution "temporarily"), and be back in a city surrounded by servants just like they''re used to. Most likely a city in a country without an extradition treaty with the US. - Reply to this comment
- Just being stupidly stubborn is NOT a quality a good leader has. Least of all when his decisions cause untold chaos and death.

Leaders don''t turn on a dime based on polls, that''s what a Congress does, not a President. Having the courage of your convictions and the determination to protect your Country which is the oath of office every President takes is precisely what is expected of ant President. It doesn''t make him popular but after all that''s not his goal. You will be very sorry at some point in time. But that''s something peoople learn in hindsight. - Reply to this comment

See, it''s people like you I truly pity. You haven''t a clue what powers the branches of government do and don''t have. Then you sit there and make up stories. And the word is impunity. Something this Congress gets away with all of the time. - Reply to this comment

Please just go play golf or ride around in your daddy''s boat till your term expires. Or go clear some brush. Anything, just stay out of the Oval Office. - Reply to this comment

Like it or not, big changes are coming.
You know, Bush has gone it alone before and it has always ended up a disaster. He really is completely unfit for a leadership role. He cannot evolve and change to evolving and changing circumstances. A good leader can look back at what he has done, analyze it and make changes based on what has happened.
