1. So, all those who think that Bush will leave in January
raise your hand.

That is, of course, if there is an election at all.

Isn't it just a bit curious about the degree of stupidity of the Republicans? Isn't it more like a carnival than a campaign? Almost as if there were no point...

It provides us all with the tools to ramp up awareness and organizational tools.

11. interesting end note here
Recent legislative events

HR5122 also known as the John Warner Defense Authorization Act was signed by the president on Oct 17, 2006 John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007. Section 1076 Text of Hr5122 is titled "Use of the Armed Forces in major public emergencies". Removing the legalese from the text, and combining multiple sentences, it provides that: The President may employ the armed forces to restore public order in any state of the United States the president determines hinders the execution of laws or deprives people of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law or opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws. The actual text is on page 322-323 of the legislation. As of 2008, these changes were repealed, changing the text of the law back to the original 1878 wording, under Public Law 110-181 (H.R. 4986, Section 1068,) however in signing H.R. 4986 into law President Bush attached a signing statement which indicated that the Executive Branch did not feel bound by the changes enacted by the repeal.

12. Signing Statements.
Thanks for pointing that out.

America MUST stand up and laugh at and completely repudiate as baseless his ridiculous "signing statements".

In fact, I've got a signing statement for him.

I do not respect the office of THIS presidency and everything he has done is null and void and beyond the limits as set by the U.S. Constitution.
