If one person dare type out a post supporting the Bush /Cheney Regime,after reading this article.When will someone arrest them. To hell with impeachment, because after what I just read, hell, arrest them all for organized crime. The RICO ACT.
I always felt it was a Coup!
TO all of those Bush/Cheney supporters that post here, DON'T EVEN DARE. As I hold you just as responsible as Bush/Cheny & Co.
I think America needs to face reality. Our Country was stolen and those supposed supporters of this regime I view as accomplises to a Coup d etat and treason. All of you Bushies out there that still regurgitate the mantra,STFU! Because you're guilty too.
So lets call this what it actually is,a Coup!Now Congress must act.Because I am certain that this news in not news to them .
Rep Party did this and used your hate and your flaws to get there.You supported this for how many years due to your irrational... insensitivity,and faux morality.PO's in OCEANIA

Just watched ZEITGEIST on google video and it explains something I allready knew, but says a lot better; ie: why cheney and bush can and will get away with anything and everything.

"The issue reached the Supreme Courth that ruled in Cheney's favor...."
How much more proof is needed that this group of criminals running our country have stacked the deck in the Supreme Court, the lower courts, bought out the mainstream press, control congress and every other entity to insure they avoid prosecution and any one who is associated with them will avoid the same. Americans no longer have a country or a government. If we wanted to know how Germans lost their country to Hitler, this is how it began. Will we learn from the lessons of the past? The way it is looking...doubtful. It takes courage to act and that seems to have been destroyed in this country since 9/11.

The issue decided by the Supreme Court dealt with Executive privilege. It was also decided before there were any Bush appointees to that body. Note also that the article refers to incidents and memos from 2000, before the Bush inauguration.
Just another article from events past, reported as news.
Let the negative comments fly and the "Bad" checks storm in.

And what factual, demonstrable evidence do you have that this is all political garbage? Did you even read thae article? I somehow doubt it.
The media bias is always liberal when it shows up the activites of the Bush Administration, but not when it supports the Bush Administration agenda, for you, is that right?
Where were you on "liberal" media bias when Judy Miller and the NY Times were pushing for war in Iraq>
No grain of salt then, was there.

I hope you read this. I am sure it will boil your blood, as it did mine!
I know you are against Impeachment, but this evidence leaves us no choice but to pursue that path to fulfill the mandates of our Constitution. I understand you are sworn to uphold it. The evidence of High Crimes and Misdemeanors is unmistakable and cannot be hidden any more.
I hope you see the turmoil churning this nation. Proper action must be taken.
Thank you for your attention to this serious matter.

I recently rewatched "The Smartest Guys iin the Room" about the rise and fall of Enron, and their connection to the Bush Administration.
It particularly addresses the tactics used to manipulate the energy market in CA, substantiated with taped conversations by the traders at the energy desk at Enron. .
If you haven't seen it, I recommend it.

Deathray, I'm so livid at this point. I thought I kept up on the news, but this one is the icing on the cake.And to think,MSM keeps on shouting the Bush Mantra.What is it going to take for people to realise just how bad the entire Bush Regime is and the harm it's done to this country. If I hear one more jackass like Kristol, I think I'm going to puke all over my keyboard. Do they think we are that stupid? Or better yet, they are that arrogant.They've caused so much destruction here and abraod yet why have we not gone into the streets? Christ, they arrest you for haveing Med MJ, but Bush/Cheney can steal how many Countries and they're still in office? What are people affraid of? Why have they not been arrested yet? What will it take for America to effin wake up?

Deathray Sorry I didn't respond to your statement. I was aware of the ties, but to read it today, I don't know...I guess I've had it up to my ears w/ BS . Enough is enough and when are we going to see accountability?Are we all going to just read the news and not act? I'm tired of swallowing the BS. And if I hear or see one ounce of coverage given to the cheerleaders of this regime, I think I'll move to France w/ my sister.Well I probably won't but... I've had it and thinlk we should all think about regrouping and learn how to organize and make damn sure we get results.We know they stole this Country,stacked the courts,lied and cheated their way to the WH, and I'm just so effin sick of it.I swear a lot when I get mad.Something has to be done .

They've caused so much destruction here and abroad yet why have we not gone into the streets?
Why not start now? Don't go to work. It's called a strike, and on a large scale, it can shut down a whole society.
Maybe you can't do that because this administration has devalued the dollar to $0.53, while real wages have barely risen. What will it take for people to reject the whole system? The system is designed to make us all slave, vis a vis the "service industry". Our grandfathers were producers, our fathers were administrators, and we have become "service providers". Sounds better than servants, doesn't it? If you want to be free, first thing, destroy your credit cards. Do not re-finance your home. Reduce expenses, grow some food in your garden. And don't neglect to arm yourself for your family's protection.

insideoutgraphics, what will it take to wake up those people that are running around with their eye's closed was your question. i think it's going to take something bigger than 9/11 and soon. and from what i have been hearing from the media, if want to believe any of them, that could very well happen soon. i pray not but there is more than ample apportunity for it to happen.

insideoutgraphics,
If you want to get a complete list of all the scums of the earth of the NeoCon persuasion, I suggest the website of New American Century where all of these lowlife snakes are holed up!
Then make a nice target for your dartboard and throw darts until all of your anger subsides, then write to your Congressman/ Senator and keep on doing it until it hurts.
BTW, the best place to do something constructive without going broke is to go to
That is your best vehicle to write to your Washington crowd without spending a penny in postage or phone calls.
Best of luck!
Peace and Blessings!
