Cafferty:Situation Room

Bush has been summoned for jury duty in Crawford, TX.
Among 600 potential jurists.
President learned about summons from media.
McClellan - "President has other commitments on Monday"
He would like to reschedule his jury duty.
Judge expects response but does not expect President to show up.

Cafferty ? Should Bush show up for jury duty?

1. No, because no attorney in their right mind would select Chimp
with 599 other potential jurists present.

3. John Kerry recently served on a jury in Mass.

Of course, he's a real man and a true patriot who believes in our system of justice unlike the Chimperor.

6. That's why KKKarl engineered this -- gotta keep up with Kerry!
And if Shrubya were to serve, I'm SURE he'd also be elected foreperson ...

:crazy:

5. This from the Waco Tribune
The last time Bush's jury duty surfaced in news media accounts sparked controversy involving several questions on his juror questionnaire that were left blank, including a question about previous arrests.

It later was revealed that Bush had been arrested for DWI in Maine in 1976, and the Democratic Travis County attorney at the time charged in several media outlets that he thought Bush "used his position as governor" to avoid having to answer potentially embarrassing questions about his past.
