Or, do you think that they will try to either postpone the elections like they said they possibly would in 2004? Or, do you think they will declare a Constitutional Crisis and cancel the elections, remove congress and replace it with a GOP governing body? Or, do you think this is altogether impossible?

I'm just asking the question. No need to call names or get nasty. I'm looking for well thought out answers only.

Let's just say it did happen. Would you Bush supporters be pissed or upset that he did this and violated the constitution? This is simply a 'what if' scenerio.

Shrink.... I proved my points. I have yet for the other Yahoo answer person post her proofs. There's a huge difference between my post and hers. 1. I follow up with legitimate sources and links. 2. I didn't Bash them, asked a question. A real question that a lot of people that I know who are conservative and liberal who are concerned with this.
And, yes I know innaugaration is in 2009. Do you really think Bush and Cheney plan to leave the White House in 2009, then?

jeeper_p…Under the Constitution, the president can declare Martial Law and cancel the election.

Bush and Cheney right now are real busy trying to cover their embezzling butts. I can see your point in this action, but Congress and the Supreme Court changed the term limits laws when FDR was President. The Right wingers cried and cried over his Presidency then too. It would take another WW III to enable George Bush and Richard Cheney to remain in power. I see that leading to a Civil War here at home if it all comes to that personally. The right wingers think they have problems in Iraq right now, they would really have some problems if they started an anarchy here at home. The Republican party would end up disband like the once Whig party of the Southern Confederacy for sure. History books would say that the Nazis showed back up in the US 60 years after WWII. This could be why the Conservatives do have the Blackwater USA mercenaries located outside of the Country right now with a military base in Dubai at the Halliburton (KBR) installation. Global economy my @zz, just think about what they have done with Wolfowitz as CEO of the World Back too, he has got to go and soon.

There shall be no impeachment due to the fact no crime has been dedicated. We had a plan and performed it very good taking Iraq in list time and achieving Baghdad overlaying extra miles in much less time than another in army historical past. We received the battle however did not have a well plan on profitable the peace. Although I do have problems with the present plan, no person else has arise with a larger one. We will paintings this out. Look at it regarding the relaxation of historical past. This battle has handiest been happening for four years. Britain fought an insurgency in Malaya for 12 years. They stayed within the battle and received the peace. We will have to do the equal. As some distance as Casey and Abizaid, they're because of retire. Casey has been right here for three years or so. Abizaid has been right here for approximately three years. It's time to transport on. That's no longer a huge deal. We rotate out and in always.

Good question. I don't think Bush plans much of anything.
I don't know why he ever ran for President. He's probably itching to get out of the White House. Cheney is another matter.
If things were rigged that much, do you think they would have allowed congress to go over to the dems? On the other hand, maybe they tried to rig the elections in 2006 and just couldn't pull it off for some reason. They had not finished rigging the voting machines.

Actually, President Bush and VP Cheney WON'T leave the White House in 2008.... the Inaguration isn't until January 20th, 2009 !!
I NEVER heard ANY suggestion of a postponement of the 2004 elections here in the USA !! PLEASE give a reference for this !!
Seriously though, I see NO plan, chance, or possibility for an attempt to change election results like the Clintonian Florida State Courts of 2000.

Nope, i don't think they will leave in 2008.
Why should they ?
Their elected term of office isn't over untill Janurary 20th 2009.
Just how would they postpone the elections ?
Just how would they remove Congress ?
Can you imagine a President saying, im canceling the elections ?
People would be laughing in the streets at him.
Plus, just how would a President, cancel elections that the States control ?

No, Bush and Cheney do not plan to leave in 2008. They will leave on January 20, 2009 when the term we elected them for ends. If you would go get educated instead of allowing your blind foolish hatred rule your putrid soul you would know when Presidential terms end and not make such a little fool of yourself.
Now be a good little liberal and make up another lie about Bush. Just try to make your next lie a little funnier so I can get a good laugh...

Why should, or would, they? They will continue to hold office until the inauguration and swearing in of the new President and Vice President in January of 2009, per the Constitution!
Wherever, in the world, did you hear *that* about the 2004 Presidential and General Election? I never heard that! Was it one of those ubiquitous "Urban Legends"?

It's ridiculous and won't happen. Anybody who believes it will happen is living in la-la land.
Bush and Cheney would never spit in the face of the country and constitution like that. I don't know who you've been talking to or where you're getting your information, but Bush and Cheney never talked about postponing the election. This is nothing more than a liberal, Bush-hating conspiracy theory and only people of like mind would even consider it.

You know if you had asked this question and Reagan, Clinton, Ford, Nixon, Carter or any other president was in the White House nearing the end of thier term as president, I would wonder why you would ask such a crazy question. But, beings that the current president has pulled of every sleazy trick in the book to take these last two elections and gain control of our country, I can understand your fears. My thoughts have been and continue to be that as long as Bush is able to continue to destroy this country, he won't need to worry about the next president and will be moving to his retirement home, in....my guess is Iraq. By the time the United States realizes what this man did with all the money we gave him to fund this war, he will have Iraq settled into a cozy multibillion dollar country, built to his own personal specification. United States will be in no shape to go after him for the money he stole from the Country to fund his retirement home, we won't have the money to fund a military, and our middle class will have collapsed, replaced by low wage workers from other countries, and our big businesses will have moved overseas, leaving the United States an empty shell of it's former self. The next president won't have a chance of building the country back up, and illegals will be coming here in droves, flooding our country, and turning it into a pure nightmare. They will overtake our legal citizens, and we will have no choice but to follow the rules of a third world country, because that's exactly what we will be at that point.
Here's the up side, if you want to call it that, if Bush hasn't succeeded in what he started out to do, he and his buddies will find a way of planting a president who will continue the job until he gains what he needs to finish the job. When he's done we won't have any money to call our own, that's already being made clear by this president. My children, my someday grandchildren will never see a surplus in this country in thier lifetime, they won't have a safety net, they won't have anything, that's what we have done for them, we left them nothing. We gave them Global warming, a deficit they can't pay, food that is imported, and tainted by people who hate us, we allowed their future jobs to be taken away from them in the name of fairness to illegal aliens, who we were afraid would call us racist, we would rather not be called that name, than fight to make sure our children have a future in this country. Sorry, but this is what I see happening, and I don't want it to happen.

The only people that said Bush would try and postpone the elections were fringe loonies. We have never in our history cancelled a presidential election, not in the Civil war or in WW2. It is altogether impossible that we would not have our elections.
