If that's the case then I vote for Ollie! I've never trusted that Kukla; beady eyes, premature baldness, the drinker's red nose... too untrustworthy in my view. The big question is whether that wimpy Lambchop will enter as a third candidate spoiler.



I wager half the people reading this have no idea what I'm talking about.

Now the President wants to pass this insane amnesty bill and says anyone who oposses it is anti-American. I submit now that President Bush may possibly have been a Liberal from the beginning and has been working with left in an effort to destroy the Republican party.

Will the real conservatives please stand up and fight for our country, before it is too late.
This is pecisely the cause of Bush's abysmal ratings now; as you suggested, those who voted him in feel deceived and violated in a very blatant, in-your-face way. If the man was at least a SMOOTH, CHARMING liar, he'd still have a few followers-but it seems he's not capable of even TRYING to "get us behind him". I don't appreciate being addressed as though I were a 6-year old; it's dismissive, and insults my intelligence.
That's the crux of it; those who "woo" us, and then betray us, are in for a lot more of our disgust, than those who we never trusted from the beginning...

George bush has always been on the Dark Side. He allied himself with the binLaden family and has never looked back.

I don't understand why anyone should be surprised about this man.

The first time I saw him, this Connecticut born, prep-schooled, Ivy League educated child of privilege doing the corn-pone act one word came immediately to mind:PHONY

burdell: no, he cannot be impeached, as most of his actions have been legal.

The web of laws in this country, like the tax code, leaves very little to objectivity. The government reserves the right to do whatever it wants. The branches of government often overstep their bounds, as well as retreat within them.

In Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, the four pillars of government are delineated clearly, but serve interoperably. Our three pillars were designed to be mushy, so that they compete with each other, not collaborate.

On a more serious note, its pretty funny for grown adults to refer to the other side as the "dark side" when its only a matter of a difference of political perspectives. Perhaps some people never grew out of "nenny nenny booboo".

LOL, you go girl!

I think being responsible for over 600,000 deaths is pretty dark. Guess he needed the oil from Iraq to fuel his death Star (built by haliburton) and keep Emporer palpa-Cheney happy.

Speaking of the "dark side", noone has brought up the conspiracy organizations (i.e. Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, Masons, etc.). Doesn't he belong to Skull and Cross? or something like that? Maybe it deserves another look, is usually poo pooed as craziness, but one has to wonder in light of recent traitorous actions of El Presidente Jorge. All of the Wash DC "elites" said to belong to these outfits, true or false?
