Answer 1

I just read your answer to the Timothy McVeigh question. Very good and accurate answer. I can see that you have done your homework and are not as easily led out to pasture as most people on this forum are.

As far as your question goes...yes it is very bad. And every night when I come home I can't help to replay Donald Trump slamming the Bush Administration on Youtube. ROTFLMAO.

Donald Trump knows Business. Bush is clueless. Part of the reason why Bush is such a disaster and now people hate him world wide is because of his contempt for the Constitution.

President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfield and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:

1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of hundereds of thousands of Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.

2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.

3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.

4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.

5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.

6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnaping, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions on governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.

8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.

9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."

10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.

11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.

12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.

13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.

14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.

15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.

16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."

17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.

18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.

19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.

20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.

May God Bless America!

Answer 2

I don't like Bush, I never have. He is his daddy's puppet. Gotta make up for the embarrassment some how!!! I think Bush gives us and Congress the finger every time he makes a decision. He hasn't learned to stop and THINK before he does anything. The problem with most of our Presidents (Rep and Dem) is that the election of the President is no longer a by the people for the people election. We proved that when Bush was put into office even though Gore got the popular vote....go figure!!! The thing about it is, we will never be happy with any president. Most people don't get it, there really are things you have to be willing to give up in order to get what you really want. You know who I'd cast a vote for? Anyone that would stand up there and honestly say to me. "I don't know for sure what I'm going to do. I will do my best to do what's best for OUR country. I will focus on the needs of our country, instead of worrying about issues outside of our country. When and if our country is threatened I will listen to ALL of my advisors and make the best decision I can. Its going to be a long hard road, and some of you may not like me in the end, but I will do the best I can for our country to make it a strong country with a reason to be proud again." That is the person who gets my vote.

Good job on reporting Who. Its not that he disagreed with you, its that he made hate/racist (commy) threats directed straight at you. There is a difference between disagreeing with someone and making such hate remarks. Maybe Who isn't as secure in his opinion of Bush as what he thinks he is! He needs to learn to not take "questioning G Dubyah" as such a personal attack and find a way to intelligently and calmly express his opinion. Thank you for supporting the proper conduct in these forums by reporting those who seem to forget the rules.

Answer 3

America shouldn't revolve and evolve around the president. It should be the other way around. When we finally elect a leader who truly represents the will of the American people then there will be more of a sense of confidence and trust in the government. Bush is only a bad chapter in history--I also include, moreso, Cheney in that chapter since he's a main architect of the war, greed, lying politics of this administration. As for Trump, he's a big mouth, too. If he thinks he could do any better, maybe he should put up his bankroll and run himself.

Answer 4

There is no Constitutional way to remove a President due to incompetence or unpopularity. Perhaps you should start a movement to have a Constitutional amendment that would allow a recall. But right now it's basically up to the politicians to police themselves.

Answer 5

Speak for yourself. My biggest fear is that another Democratic appeaser will get into office.

LMAO and Donald Trump isn't exactly what I would consider a legitimate source, but hey - whatever makes you happy.

WTF did you report Who for? What's the matter - you can dish it out but can't take it? Good grief.

Answer 6

If it was'nt for BUSH doing what he did Alquida would be right here in the free world and each would be the targets and you'd never know it. schools, shopping centers stadiums,race tracts, bridges, forests going up in flame, volcano's hit by explosives,hell that could wipe out the whole sound. So now the man that has stopped all this you dont like= are you iraqi?===Use your head for a change

Answer 7

Aside from impeachment, there's no legal way to get rid of him now other than a volutnary resignation (never going to happen).

And eviction by impeachment won't happen given how politically divisive the country has become, since the Senate would never vote 2/3 to convict, no matter what evidence is presented.

So, we are stuck with damage control for 20+ months.

Answer 8

Yea, it is sad. I wonder if they truly believe that there life will all the sudden get instantly better when he does. i got news for em, whatever they perceive as being wrong, will still be wrong the next day.

And catcrazy, your one of those ones that will wake up my friend.

Answer 9

I'll be repeating myself, but what will you guys use the next time around? You can't threaten to impeach every Republican President into eternity!

You ought to be happy with a known element to hate. The next guy is likley going to be quite a bit smarter, and therfor harder to attack, and harder to find his mistakes.

Kind of funny/ironic, but Bush has been a gift to libs. It'll never be so easy again to target your enemy.

And what are you going to do when Hillary takes us to war with Iran?? Who are you going to blame then?? If she thought nuclear proliferation was a good reason to attack Iraq (and, she did) she'll go after Iran for the same reason (why think otherwise?).

Answer 10

Don't worry there is plenty of hope. America is the greatest country in the world.
I know because I live here.

Answer 11

Depending on who is replacing him, that may be the end of hope for a lot of us.
