Bush on CNN. I am really confused
"Free nations don't attach one another"

Really? Then what the hell did WE do?

Also, the Enronomy must be really worrisome to them because he is talking about WMD and thugs and Saddam, and has "Jobs" and "Growth" on the backdrop.

Later,
JM

8. That's a good one
"Free nations dont develop WMD ...."

Did Condi "forget" to tell Smirty about the stockpiles in the U.S.? or the fact that we have "one or two" nukes?

He's beyond stupid. He is a fucking idiot.

11. Or France or Israel or India or England or Australia or........
Virtually every single country that has WMD is a "Free" country.

9. Not contradictory, Imperial Amerika is NOT FREE
Yes, we are currently "running off the fumes of the Old Republic."

The Busheviks aren't done transforming us into one of their Latin Amerikan Colonies yet.

But it's clear from the way that the Busheviks followed Edward Luttwak's Blueprint for Coup D' Etat to the letter in 2000, that the Imperial Subjects of Amerika now don't even enjoy the same privilege that says that the Busheviks wouldn't do to us what they regularly do to "furriners".

We are all now Guatemalans, El Salvadorans, Nicaraguans, and I fear that when the Busheviks are finished finsihing off the Old American Republic (sans the illusion and lies a la the Soviet Union and Imperial Rome), then we will all know just what Peons and Serfs we really are considered to be by the Imperial Family and their Cronies.

Luckily, "The fish rots from the head down" is true and so far these Imperial changes haven't yet fully trickled down to us yet. But the upper parts of our Former Republic are operating with a distinctvely Imperial Roman flavor.

Of course, as the original Tom Paine said, "The right of voting for representatives is the right by which all other rights are protected..."

This is as true now as it was then.

Hence my position that, in spite of the fact that we still enjoy (for the moment) day-to-day lives that are still quite reminiscent of the Old American Republic, Amerika is no longer truly free and moving toward a situation where most everyone knows it (may that day be longer in coming than I think).

Isn't there some factiod that No Country with a McDonald's establishment has ever attacked another country with a McDonald's establishment?

7. Fear, fear, fear. It's all he's got. He's losing even that, and now he's
being shown for the worthless piece of fascist shit he really is.

With all of these scandals, and Clark and Dean breathing down his neck, the thing I am most worried about, is that if it seems like he's going to go down in flames (and it looks as if he may), I believe he and his cabal would do anything, including commit a major terrorist act, to preserve their offices.

They may have been involved in one already (9/11), and we know they are capable of incredible evil. They'll add it up. Would they be hurt more by another "attack", or helped from the resulting fear and media frenzy? Looking from the outside, it seems to me, that if they're playing for "all the marbles", they will go with an "Operation Northwoods".

12. I agree,
I think there will be another terrorist attack. Although some people will conclude that it means chimpy can't protect us, far more will come to his side, seeing him as the great leader. Recall that Iran helped elect Raygun. There are terrorists who want Bush* in power for the same reasons. They want a war.
