It is not about the leak.....IT IS ABOUT THE LIE!!!

[ClusterFreak]

A president can declassify and release classified information.

Bush is ON RECORD saying he would like to know who the leaker was.

HE is the leaker and THAT is the issue.

The fact the White House admits Bush ordered the declassification of the NIE information, PROVES Bush's deceit on this issue.

Snotty Mac and the MSM can spin all they like, it does not matter.

Bush has without a shadow of a doubt, lied to the American people (yes, yet again) and should be impeached.


I have spoken.;-) :* :hi:

1. And covered it up which is obstruction of justice.

2. Seriously, what's it gonna take for our leaders to use the word LIE?

I'm cringe every time I hear 'mislead'

4. Exactly.

And doesn't it seem as though Dem leaders....virtually across the board, even Feingold...cringe at the word "impeach"? It's like they're all a bunch of whiny adolescents, who recoil at the thought of doing their chores or something. Awww, c'mon mom and dad....I don't wanna call the president a liar and impeach him! I did the dishes last night!

I hurl in their general direction.:puke:

3. But he didn't lie under oath! And it wasn't about sex either.

5. Exactly!...CNN et al keep spinning to minimize the damage to Bush!

They keep trying to make it simply a matter of whether or not Bush had the right to declassify the material. THAT IS PURE BULLSHIT! Bush repeatedly said "when I find out who leaked I'll take care of it" (or words to that effect), all the while hiding the fact that HE, HIMSELF, GEORGE BUSH was the leaker. When is CNN or a leading Democrat or ANYONE going to say it? BUSH IS A LIAR!

6. "leak"

There are plenty of things that bush has done poorly that would be a much better use of energy to focus on than this. All this supposed "leak" garbage is a non-story; why do u think there are no legal scholars or congressmen up in arms over it? Most of the people causing a stir over this are either feeding on misinterpratations given by others or making misinterpratations on purpose so they can bash the president (which would seem somewhat stupid since there are already plenty of good reasons to bash him). First and foremost it is impossible for the president to "leak" information, the executive branch has the power to declassify information without permission. Furthermore even though Id argue alot of the information he declassified turned out to be erroneous he did it with the intent of giving more information to the people to justify the iraq war. There are many REAL problems with the current administration I dont see how it helps anyone to focus on ones that arent.

7. You are missing the point (on purpose purhaps?)

As the poster of this thread says "It's not about the leak, it's about the lie!"....People are just trying to bash the president?...Are you serious?....People, including myself are pointing out the fact that the so-called honest, straight talking president is a L-I-A-R!...Every time he was declaring to the public that he wanted to find the leaker and punish him, he was deceitfully hiding the fact that HE, HIMSELF was the leaker...The people in other countries, including my own, have seen him as a deceitful liar from the beginning.
