Even the SCOTUS is fed up with Bush's nonsense.
In an 8 to 1 decision the scotus kicked Bush on the ass for his trashing of the
Bill of Rights. It is about time Bush was placed on the slippery slope he so well desreves. Thank you SCOTUS. Even the neocons have had enough of him Arthur Kramer 344th BG 494th BS England, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany Visit my WW II B-26 website at: http://www.coastcomp.com/artkramer |

I'm not sure who these neocons are you keep mentioning (and I bet you don't know either, it's probably just a new catch phrase you learned and like to use to avoid having to try to express complex ideas) but the Supreme Court has ruled against the government many times over the last few years.

And there is draft talk.
"From Democrats in Congress and a few Republicans, the administration has said repeatedly stated there is no need for a draft and they will not ask for one. According to a political analyst in Newsweek magazine (or was it Time?), this whole "draft scare" is the democrats trying to scare the younger males into voting for Kerry. But you know what Art, don't let facts get in the way of your "thinking"." Preach on brother!!! I reading ya 5/5 flyboy. No reason to mention the "D" word as long as "W" dips into the the IRR pool via his PRCA and continues to extend sandbox deployments. His some news from my neck of the woods: Sunday, June 20, 2004 Barrel, scraping bottom of. Fort Irwin 'not closing,' Lewis told, Claire Vitucci and Tammy Mccoy, The Press-Enterprise, Friday, May 21, 2004 "About 150 soldiers of the 58th Engineer Company, which supports the 2,500-member 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, are scheduled to deploy sometime in the next 70 days, said Maj. Chris Belcher, Fort Irwin's public affairs officer. .... But the Army is considering sending some or all of the regiment to Iraq, Lewis said. It's unclear when that decision would be made, Lewis said. But if it does happen, reservists will first come and train with the unit, also called the Army's Opposition Force, and then fill in when the regiment is deployed. That way, specialized training for armored units could continue at Fort Irwin, Lewis said. If the Army is cutting into their training facilities in order to deploy troops then nobody can complain about their own tour of duty being extended for a few years. But it does bring up the question of whether the United States was prepared to open this second front as Bush proposed and Kerry voted for." |

"CallsignZippo" wrote in message om... (Snip for brevity) But it does bring up the question of whether the United States was prepared to open this second front as Bush proposed and Kerry voted for." What is there to question since the whole world now knows that Bush and his surrogates flat out lied and that the Congress and public were totally misled because they believed the lies. With perfect 20/20 hindsight, of course we shouldn't have, but it's a little late for that kind of breastbeating, isn't it? The only real unanswered question (right now at least) is whether or not we want another four years of evasions, half-truths and outright lies or should we take a chance on the other option in the hopes that we will mostly be dealt cards from the top of the deck. The answer to that one will come in November, unless that exercise also ends up being rigged. George Z. |

Pardon me if I don't quite understand, but wasn't throwing innocent Japanese citizens into internment camps en masse, simply because of their race, a far larger example of 'trashing the bill of rights' than anything Bush has allegedly done? Why did you not protest this? What about FDR's attempts to bypass and overthrow the judicial branch altogether? I would be interested in knowing what you think Bush did that is so unprescidented. Fact is, Franklin Delano Rosevelt was the closest thing to a dictator we've ever had in this country. Don't misunderstand me; he was a great man, and he was what the nation needed at the time. However, all of this baseless and manufactured outrage directed at president Bush is disgraceful, considering the relativly subtle and nuanced actions he has taken---especially in comparison to the beloved FDR. |
