Hey wow yet another thread where the nitwitcons got nothing better to debate with than raising their font. It must truly suck that king George so frequently sends you foot soldiers out to fight with unloaded rifles.

Gee, yet another post for SOME of the liberals in here to bath in mastibatory glee at something this administration did that "appears" shady or un-ethical.

Dudes, many of us 'righties' already get it. Bush sucks as a leader (7-10 of us think so, including me). Not in everything he does, but am certainly not happy in his overall performance in many areas. Beleive me, right now all the politicians are flucking up our country so there plenty of venom to spread about. But come on, every time he blows his nose is no reason pull out the "he's the devil" card. It makes you appear "unhinged".

Plus I gotta tell ya, with of all the fluck-ups to choose from. This one is among his least significant to me. It's just smells like another Washington D.C. poitical circle-jerk to me

I know it's a political forum and not a lot of football going on and I get that, but is there any reason we couldn't spend a little time talking about things we can do, or what we'd like to see done politically, instead of Bushs suck, bush is great or whatever. I gotta tell ya, I've only be here a few months,

Are we grown ups? lets debate like grown ups then. Don't these "nan-nan nan-nan-nan" posts day in and day-out get ever get tiresome?

I know I'm newer in here, but is it always like this? just asking.

I thought you were missing the point. This is not another "Bush sucks" thread.

This thread is about the Republican Party using the Deparment of Justice as a political tool to influence the 2006 election.

I see your point, my apologies to your thread, and the drift I took it.

I was kinda responding to the post I referrenced above, which pulled the "King George" in. I should have wrote my post narrower (not to the thread, but to the post itself). Overall point being, no matter what topic comes up, the "devil George" it responsible.

As too your thread, and the article, I've only got one thing to say: Lotta good it did em'



** - I'll edit my post to read POST instead of THREAD. I should have said that in the first place. Again, my apologies.

I'd rather have Bush than Gore/Kerry but I don't think I would vote for Bush again, the Illegal Alien thing was the last straw for me, you will constantly hear the Bush haters whine and B!tch about Iraq and when you ask them what their plan would be it is nothing but cut & run "surrender", ask a new Democrat how they will FIGHT the Muslim Terrorists and they will never give you a straight answer, never, I still don't think they can get it through their looney dip ***** heads that if they win the election in 2008 they are going to have to fight a War and their enemy are Bloodthirsty Religious Savages who want to bring death to this country, they admit it and the whacky democrats still smile and blame Bush, the Muslims were attacking us all through the nineties when Bush was down in Texas beating up democrats.

The Muslim Terrorist will beat the living ***** out of this group of pansies the Democrats are trying to get elected, they have nobody with the guts to take the Muslims on if one of them gets elected this country is in big trouble.

Reading the article more, seems like a little cya on his behalf. LA Times is know for hatchet jobs like this, so it's pretty typical. Not saying he is wrong, but there is a whole other side. I think I'll wait to hear what the Federal Investigator say.

Bottom Line: It say right in the Misson Statement

Quote:
United States Attorneys are appointed by, and serve at the discretion of, the President of the United States, with advice and consent of the United States Senate.
They actually get fired all the time. In fact almost all of em' get fired without cause evertime the administration changes. It's the way it is. I can see why it's in his interest to put a story like this out.

Again, I've no knowledge one way or the other if his story is full of doo, or telling the truth. Time will see. It wouldn't surprise me, but it also seems like a bit of a strech too.

In due time, I'm almost certain Bush's greatest failure will end up to be the "IMMIGRATION" travisty. It has the single greatest ability to forever change the course of this country. In 5-6 we will increase our population by close to 8% (20-22 Million) mostly poor people that will be a fiscal burden. Many are adults that will soon siphon off SS and medcare systems. The shear weight of the fiscal burden will pull us quietly under the water we've barly floated on for 30-40 years.

Bush doesn't own this one alone either. They all failed us (the current American people). America as you know it is gone.
