Cite a source, or shut the fck up.
Mikeygonebad claims that you can google this and get over 1.5 million results. I tried just that and got 65,800, virtually all of them blogs echoing one lone article on capitalhillblue.com. And what do I find right at the top of that article?
"WRITER'S NOTE: When this story was written, three sources told me they personally heard President Bush call the Constitution a "goddamned piece of paper." I have since learned that two of the sources were not present for the meeting and were, in fact, passing on second-hand information. The third now refuses to either confirm or deny the report."
Garbage. Pure garbage.

Don't bother trying to figure out the deeper meaning of anything he says, because there is no deeper meaning. If Bush thinks the Constitution is a God-damned piece of paper, then it must be. I think it's amazing that Clinton got impeached for having sex in the Oval office, and all the crazy things Bush has done like lying about WMD and he's still in office.

He's republican. He wants to revamp The Constitution by using The Patriot Act as bait. His main political backers are big business, oil barens and the Christian Militia. He wants to get the little things changed first (the flag issue) which I agree.
Unfortunately the flag will be the first leak that springs into more and more of our Patriotic People's Rights being taken away.
Every U.S. Senator will tell you the same thing. 911 changed the way we look at our country. The Patriot Act will be known as the act that took away Our Constitutional Rights.
President Bush wants to fight terrorists on their own soil and the Democrats want to protect our rights and our soil. It makes me wonder if he's protecting us or oil?

This is the closest I could find as far as a source goes. Who knows if he said this or not. All I know, is that he's been re-writing and editing the "God damned piece of paper" for his personal advantage since he's been in office, so it wouldn't surprise me if he did.

well it is written on paper, he has a point there................but before I agree with Bush (though no politician ever puts much thought into the constitution),
Is this a joke? where did you hear this?I know his "shocked" aides and staff wouldn't say **** b/c they would no longer be staff or aide.

Well, I don't know if he did or not, but seeing the way he's acted in the last years, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if he did more than that and started using it as his own personal roll of toilet paper.

I dislike Bush, extremely. However, even I think that you had better quote your source on what you claim he has said. I doubt that even he is stupid enough to say that.

Because he's a fascist, mean-spirited, self-centered, egotistical, control-freak who wants to turn America into a police state! And he would probably urinate on it if it wasn't sealed in an airtight glass box!
