I know this may sound schitzoid, but things are bad for Bush, and I have to knock him down a few.
1. Apparently he actually held a meeting with gonzalez, cheney et al in late 2001 to see if they could "get around" the 4th amendment.
2. The argument used by the president about being outside the law but within his rights with extreme executive authority seems to also logically conclude that he can execute american citizens at will, and may have *even done so* in guantanamo bay, cuba.
3. A bill which has never passed the house was signed into law by president. The deficit reduction omnibus reconcilliation act of 2005 is not law, but it is procedure under which we operate (huh?)
Okay, I'm calling it, if a bit late, here. It's official, we got a rogue president on our hands. I can't even give this a score. I say, arrest him, bring him in, give him a fair trial, and then we'll see. But in a circumstance where the president exists outside the law, I can't recognize him as president of the united states.
I suggest we come up with a new term for him, like the brits did for Oliver Cromwell. Here's some ideas:
We could call him the resident. Resident of the United States George W. Bush.
Governor Bush.
Ex-Governor Bush?
Bush MBA?
Mister Bush?
Former Cheerleader Bush?
Debtor in Chief?
Any other ideas?

I remember a Scottish paper calling him the un-president.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Yeah it's not funny anymore now it's just scary. I tried watching a press confrence a couple of days ago and all I could think was he's going to kill us all and we're gonna see it coming. I should get involved but I'm not and I don't know why but it just seems hopeless. It's very head in the sand but I'm just gonna wait it out and hope for the best.

HK, welcome back,
I like the president evil idea.
I think we should look into why Umbrella Corporation is getting all of these no bid contracts, and exactly what they've done with all these WMDs.
The levies have broken and Raccoon City is flooded with zombies.
Also, why has the budget suddenly been cut for S.T.A.R.S. while spending on Dept of UMBC Security and the Medicare Progenitor program has Twixiltupled?
Have the zombie wars gotten bogged down in a quagmire, or has it degenerated into infighting?
Who exactly has been whisked away to Rockfort Island and why?
Oh dear. This parallel worked out far better than I thought it would when I began. Yet, though not unattractive, somehow Condi just doesn't compare with Milla.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Well this guy tried to rob a bank sure, but he failed so it's all gravy...
The funny thing is you think thats a defence.

Actually, I don't know what your talking about Auraptor.
1. Yeah, sure, they did get around the 4th amendment. But that's not the point. The president takes an oath, that oath not only legally binds him but symbolizes a commitment. I got this from MSNBC.
2. What does Charlie Sheen have to do with anything? My source for this one was Arlen Specter.
3. WTF is it with you guys? I mean I know your reaction to the above is probably going to be MSNBC bah Specter bah, so I have to say pre-emptively, we're in this party too you know. I mean you neocons act as if you're the party and we're some tinfoil hat circle.
Well, news flash. We're the party, and you are the tinfoil hat circle. You have the executive, such as it is, bravo you, because you're christian looney fringe stormed the primary. But this party was founded by people like me, and historically is a lot closer to us politically than it is to Pat Robertson or Alberto Gonzalez or Richard Perle, or Paul Wolfowitz.
I've had it, and I'm not alone. If Chrisitans want to join the conservative struggle for a lasting prosperous peaceful stable society then they are more than welcome do so by any of us. But that's not what's happened here. Neocons didn't come in to help us with our cause. They came in with their own agenda and couldn't give a rats ass about what we believe in.
Well God damn it I'm pretty ticked off, and I'm not any more ticked than any other old school conservative who's been paying any attention at all.
I think it's high time we show these folks the door. Anyone who thinks big spending, bottomless deficits, large government control structures, huge beaurocraies, handouts to their friends, socially motivated military expansionism, stealing assets and natural resources from said countries and giving them as gifts to friends, giving no bid contracts to companies while holding a vested intrest in said companies, widespread environmental destruction, sacraficing the US economy, bankrupting American industry while favoring in the extreme corrupt overseas interests including those with ties to communism and terrorism, totally ignoring the constitution, nominating personal friends and yesmen to high positions, totally ignoring personal privacy, supressing the rights of ordinary Americans, passing emergency legislation to increase executive power, allowing an executive to act completely outside the law, intentionally committing acts of high treason for personal or partisan political gain or to forward a radical agenda originally cooked up in writing by people who openly admitted to being communists, and this, my absolute favorite: Not only holding people without charge indefinitely but TORTURING them, in some cases TO DEATH, including an uncounted number children under the age of FOURTEEN, and yes, not one of the items list hear is *even remotely* in the realm of speculation, and every single one of these is not only enough to get a president impeached, but shot by a firing squad of a military tribunal of their own govt., and if anyone, anybody at all, thinks that this their idea of good leadership: Allow me to show you to the door.
I think all of this arguing of the specifics of one case vs. another on each issue and all of this whether Bush is a conservative or really a republican at all or a democrat mole or a socialist mole, or whether it's him or cheney calling the shots - really missed the point.
The actions speak for themselves. This is horrible leadership. Abominible. The Bush Admin is really nothing short of an abomination.
Here's the saddest part of all: I've undoubtedly understated the case against Bush. And you know, because I would never do such a thing, not one of these is a left wing stance. Every single item on that very long list is a way in which the Bush Admin has offended my right wing republican sensibilities.
Okay, here are some I've left out: Bush has deliberately undermined the advancement of new technologies which could be a boon to american industry and the US standard of living such as stem cell research. He ha
