—now that Scott McClellan has implicated Bush in the outing of Valerie Plame:

• “The most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on his behalf and help restore credibility he lost amid the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So I stood at the White House briefing room podium in front of the glare of the klieg lights for the better part of two weeks and publicly exonerated two of the senior-most aides in the White House: Karl Rove and Scooter Libby.”

• “There was one problem. It was not true.”

• “I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice President, the President’s chief of staff, and the president himself.”

-- Scott McClellan (Former Bush White House Press Secretary) from his memoir to be published next April.

All who question or challenge this current administration are liberal, America-hating terrorists.

Scott McClellan should be Tasered and sent to Gitmo.

He feels the need for healthcare reform, BUT not UHC

He is against abortion, BUT feels that children should have ready access to health care and a good education

He is for securing our borders and no Amnesty

he supports dismantling the IRS and instituting a fair tax - which is truly a fair tax - more people can save for those "rainy days" (i.e., illness, retirement, whatever they choose)

And he is hilarious

How could anyone not support him?

NO PORK
No payments from lobbiests, keeping the representative busy representing companies rather than constituants.
No paying scientists for false reports, no blacking out stuff they don't agree with, censoring or controlling the media from any side, lib or conservative
NO CORRUPTION!!
I mean, how can we, the average joes, clean out this septic system we call Washington? Restore something we can be proud in, people who UPHOLD the constitution?

It really isn't fair. We have other candidates, you know, and they are justifiably feeling left out. Conservatives really need to spread the smear around a little more.

The other day she was asked if she remembered that Ross Perot had told us that the trade agreements would cost us a bunch of jobs and all the other stuff that has happened and she said "I just remember a bunch of charts" Now come on, everybody remembers what Perot said, it was all over the tv for months, heck it was what his campaign was about. I think she is just another lieing politician. She takes us for dumb.

Get outta town! Ya don't say!
In an excerpt from his forthcoming book, McClellan recounts the 2003 news conference in which he told reporters that aides Karl Rove and I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby were "not involved" in the leak involving operative Valerie Plame.

"There was one problem. It was not true," McClellan writes, according to a brief excerpt released Tuesday. "I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest-ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice president, the president's chief of staff and the president himself."

im taking about war crimes, for example donald rumsfeld was blamed for torture and killings of iraqis by american forces, and he resigned to avoid a court case aganist him, this is very common in so called democratic countires when the guilty get away with murder.

The sole branch of our government that is responsible for creating legislation is the legislative branch the Congress of the United States. However - the US Department of Homeland Security was created directly by Presidential Executive Order No 13228

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:"
George W. Bush is claiming a "right under the Constitution" that does NOT exist!

Article One, Section 1. of the United States Constitution says: " All legislative powers herein shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives." There is no mention anywhere of the "right" of the Executive to create anything like the largest single agency this government has ever had - as this 'department' absorbed 22 separate existing agencies (that were created by congress) into one that answers only to the executive.
Therefore the 'creation' of Homeland Security - is in direct violation of Article One, Section 1, of the US Constitution, as the executive branch had no authority to create any legislation - much less whole departments of the government - only the congress can do this under the Constitution

Now first President Bush is not running for President in "08. Yet a Clinton is. So have you some evidence to back the rants that are exchanged here? Capable of really doing any research? Just curious because as I review posts I am appalled. Please prove me wrong. Because I have faith in the younger generation.
Rants, take 2 and pass. Ideas, opinions & link accepted. Thank you in advance.

The antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996:
A Summary didn't stop 9/11

http://www.fas.org/irp/crs/96-499.htm

They seem to work against innocent people. Just because there hasn't been a terror attack since 9/11 doesn't mean they work, otherwise we wouldn't have top neocons on tv saying "it's not a matter of if but when" or" we will be hit before the end of the year."
