Merciful heavens! I just WISH Bush and/or Cheney HAD included a little sexual hanky-panky in their list of "bad behaviors" so that maybe then the media, the congress, and the American people would have paid enough attention to the impeachment charges. It seems that lying to congress, the UN, and the American people in order to bring about a war that killed thousands and cost trillions just isn't as interesting as Anna Nicole, Brittney Spears...or Monica. Then we wonder how we are losing our freedom. The fault, dear Brutus, is not in the stars but in ourselves. It will not be terrorists that cost us our country. It will be our own short attention span, our lack of willingness to think things through logically, and our willingness to be governed by cold hearted opportunist as long as they don't require us to think.
Wasn't there a Bush-Condi thing going on?
"June 1, 2006 -- UPDATED -- Rocky shoals for Bush marriage? Informed sources Inside the Beltway report that First Lady Laura Bush has established temporary residence in the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC as a result of a tiff with President Bush over an extramarital relationship involving her husband. Mr. Bush's tryst is said to involve Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. It is not known how long Mrs. Bush plans to remain at the Mayflower, however, her security detail has been present at the hotel during hours when the First Lady would normally be residing in the White House. While she was National Security Adviser, Rice, who has never been married, referred to George W. Bush as "my husband" before she corrected herself and said, "President. Bush" Rice was speaking at a dinner hosted by New York Times bureau chief Philip Taubman when she made her "husband" remarks."

That applies to U.S. citizens, not foreign terrorists.
President George W. Bush said Saturday he vetoed legislation that would ban the CIA from using harsh interrogation methods such as waterboarding to break suspected terrorists because it would end practices that have prevented attacks.

Soooo...wiping ones feet or something else with the Constitution?
First, there were 6 individuals who knew we were waterboarding (2) terrorists, 4 of those individuals were DEMOCRATS (Including Pelosi)..
Tell me again how terrorists are covered by the US Constitution, and then explain to me why people are not calling for the ousting of the 4 Democrats who approved of waterboarding..
And try to do it without spin and with a straight face.

Those terrorists are lucky. During WWII they would have been shot and killed instead of just being captured.
Does killing the enemy in a war mean that their "constitutional" rights have been violated?

I'm more curious about finding out if President Clinton violating the rights of any of those killed in Waco Texas raid. At least they were US Citizens.
