Well for one, he'd put live video cameras in everyones house if he could. He vetoes everything until it comes back the way he wants it, so don't tell me Congress alone passes bills. He is pushing for oil & gas drilling in national forrests and offshore. His policies toward immigration are a slap in the face to every legal immigrant and his current "surge" wich has made Iraq even deadlier. He forces his religious beliefs into everything. Doesn't give a rats a** about any country without oil (Darfur). He is doing all the wrong things. Raping our country and other countries for fuel when we should be developing alternative fuels and more efficient vehicles. Now he's trying to push for more coal plants. He blatently lies and disregards the constution and abuses his power. Does he think about the future? He is setting up an elightest government so we can compete with China. The rich want more and they are taking it from the poor. Hi George you pos.

I give up, it's always Republicans vs Democrats, right vs left, moral majority vs liberals. You stupid Bush Bots support anything he does if you think you'll get fatter from it. Your answer is always "Bill Clinton did it". I know the president doesn't personally pass bills but he vetoes and influences them. Neither party cares about the working class anymore. It's all "what's in it for me"? I'm glad I lived most of my life before most of the greedy, self centered, materialistic vermin were spawned. This planet is doomed and all they care about is wich color Hummer to buy. I'm glad so many college grads bought homes way out of there means and lost them. Let them see how it feels to be poor. I'm not wasting time here anymore, it just makes me realize how screwed up this country really is.

That is 2 Questions, OK, in order then,

#1) A quote from one of my favorite movies "Specificity Bob." What bills are the President supporting that cause you concern and why do they cause you concern?

#2) Despite what so many people postulate, the President has committed no crime. In order for impeachment to go forward, a crime has to be committed. It's no more complex than that. With the power held by the Democrats in this country at this time, they would absolutely move to impeach if they could find a crime. We see all the negative Bush - n - company press these days because they are looking so diligently for a crime. It's a pity really, this Country has bigger fish to fry than personality conflicts.

Feel free to get back to me on the bills that have you concerned and I'll explain the thought process of support the way I see it. Which won't automatically make me right, just opinionated.

It's hard to know where to start with your rant. But first, the ONE thing I agree with you on is the immigration bill. It is a slap in the face to legal immigrants and other Americans, in general.

However, since I don't wish to write an essay, I'll just address the more egregious misrepresentations...

Video surveillance in every home??? Just which bill is that one in? If you are trying to refer to the wire tap bill, the media has consistently misrepresented that. It ONLY refers to phone calls from overseas that are ROUTED through America to another overseas number. So, you really don't need to worry next time you order that pizza...no one is listening.

He is funding alternative fuel sources, but they aren't here yet and we still have TODAY to deal with. We complain about being dependent on fuel from the Middle East, yet we tie the hands of our government in trying to become independent. That's just stupid. And BTW, since you seem to be an environmentalist at heart, how come YOUR PEOPLE are trying to stop the building of the "fence" along the border in order to save some vermin that lives down there? Kinda goes against your rant on illegal immigration.

I don't know why anyone would want to be President, frankly. No matter what the issue may be, he is dam*ed if he does, and dam*ed if he doesn't..by people like you. When you are responsible for balancing the lives and needs of the nation, no one will be happy...least of all people who take such a narrow view of things. And passing bills YOU aren't happy with is hardly an impeachable offense.

Were you asleep during the first two months of the Bush bashing of American laws rights and just plain good sense.
He went in and undid everything good ole Bill set up to make this country strong and clean and responsible. Bush damaged all sorts of foreign relationships out of sheer ignorance of basis knowledge. And that was before he went on vacation and no one cared about terrorist threats. Bill like women a bit too much, but I'd rather deal with that than have my country sold on the cheap to oil, timber and mining interests.

Not knowing exactly which bills are being pushed is a nearly irrelevant question because nearly all bills that go to congress are written by the executive branch in the first place and all too often even that is outsourced. All too often the communications industry, and many others, write their own legislation. Congress is hardly more than a rubber stamp. By telling congress in advance that he will veto certain or any additions only saves time. Congresspersons very rarely have time to read even the executive summaries of legislation they vote on, when they are 'free' to vote their conscious, when that's not being dictated to them by party bosses.

"WE" don't have the power to impeach him. "WE" never have. And if the Demos really were active and interested in relieving Bush jr of his post, accusing HIM personally of a crime is completely unnecessary. His second election was through election fraud, as was his first. (Too late for the later of course). The GAO released this report in September of 2005 http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d05956.pdf (see Results in Brief), where they admitted quite clearly that the electronic voting machines could easily be used to tamper the elections in several different ways without detection. In the case of Ohio there were enough 'errors' to swing the entire electoral vote of the state to Bush. And the vote was so close, that nearly any state's electoral was enough to swing the election.

Need I raise the question of how such defective equipment was permitted to be used in a presidential election in the first place?

Could congress depose Bush on this basis? Of course they could. All they would have to muster would be the political will to admit election fraud in the United States was possible, and then conduct an actual investigation. Such admission would, of course, be a major political embarrassment to the US on the world stage, but it would get the job done.

Could the States (the Union members of the United States of America) depose Bush? Impeachment does begin in the Senate, however, the States of the Union are no longer represented in the Senate. The Senate members are seated by a vote of the people, no longer by the legislatures of the individual States. Could the States be relied upon to rally to such a cause? The Founding Fathers thought so, that's why they set it up the way they did. Read Madison's Notes, or the Federalist Papers. Anyone who thinks the Constitution is 'outdated' has not read anything about it, or it's deliberations.

The 17th amendment removed an important balance from the scales of our federal governing. When the people could not be collectively mustered to protect their own interests, the individual states could be more readily relied upon to protect their interests. It is now us against 'them', and as long as we can be made to feel helpless, confused and incompetent, 'they' win every time. If the Union States could be added to the mix, and allowed to protect their interests (which usually are closer to our own than the federal government's interests are), then the states carry with them a great many more organizing abilities and resources than the general public does.

One major failure of Communism was that it failed to note that by making the tools of production, let's say farm equipment for this example, belong to everyone, these tools belonged in practice to no one. A corporate farmer whose tractor broke down, went home. "Not my job to fix tractors" he would claimed. The mechanic would claim "Don't have the parts. Be here next month...maybe. Not my job to make parts." In the same vein, we don't have representation in the House or Senate. When so many votes are required to get a person in office, in practice, the people don't matter. Who does? Whoever can secure enough votes for that congressperson and all too often that comes down to $$$ or airtime on TV or radio or column inches in the press. Or in the case of Bush jr, being 'in' with the people who counted our votes.

"It does not mater who votes, but who counts the votes."
Joseph Stalin

We can not impeach President Bush, because then we would have Vice Presisent Chaney, which is worse?, then too, by the time this all got underway, the time frame would over lap with the election of a new President. As it is right now, President Bush will go down in history as the worst president.As too the bills to be passed, that is congress, which maybe should be replaced as well as President Bush.

Blah, blah, blah, just another Lib that uses worn out cliches'. "Impeach Bush" or "Bush lied", etc, etc. All the rants without a shred of proof other than thinking that if they repeat it enough times, and louder than the first time, it becomes fact.
When are you and your Lib buddies going to come up with some new rants? I'd love to hear some new ones, it keeps me entertained

Read the US Constitution. Mr. Bush does not "pass" bills. That is the job of Congress. You cannot impeach the President. Dumb idea.
