do the republicans feel like dummies or just embarassed that Bush commited extortion?

Question

Any time Bush scared the republicans with "terror" threats (Bush's terror threats that is) the republicans just handed over billions to wage a phony war.

I mean Newt Gingriche said Bush's war on terrorism is "phony".

So are the republicans embarrased? feel stupid? or mad that Bush stiff armed them and scared them so he coud offer "protection" from the scary terrorists?

Isn't that what the mob does? exortion? so bush stiff arms the republicans and tells them he'll "protect" them. Then the republicans get so scared they give Bush billions in tax dollars to fight a phony war?

Man what a RACKET! litterally.

No wonder I left the republican part. What a scam Bush pulled.

in NEWT's own words.

Answer 2

They should be ashamed! They have done the part of the terrorists. The terrorists wanted to destroy our DEmocratic way of life which is based on the Constitution. Seven months before 9/11 Bush and Company systimatically began to destroy our Constitution and our way of life. In the process they did exactly what the Terroerists were trying to do!

As to respecting the President, the president is an elected official that is sworn to represent the people of the United Stated and defend our Constitution. Bush has done neither. He will get respect if he ever does his job as he is sworn to do.

For yhose of you do not have a clue as to what the President is sworn to do, this is what he swears to do as dictasted by the Constitution of the United States:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Answer 7

I am sick and tired of these Left vs. Right, Blue State vs. Red State, and Republican vs. Democrat “questions” that read more like childish commentary than an honest question. Besides, not everyone falls into these categories. If you want to start a flame-war join a listserv.

Answer 9

Looks like you hit a nerve.

Isn;t it funny how only 30 percent of the country supports our "president" and only 20 percent of the country supports the war, yet there are some here do both with a passion so great that they insult the 70 percent of the rest of us and send hate mail.

Answer 10

Shut your liberal mouth up, it may be your 1st amendment rights, but how about you respect you president.
