Bush's Paraguay Adventure...do we have to protect him in "exile?"

[Tyler Durden]

When the Pig Bush and his band of Piglets and fellow travelers head on down to their new 100,000 acre ranch in Paraguay (Our motto: "We Don't Even Extradite NAZIs, so forget about Bush,") do we have to still fund Secret Service for LIFE protection for his sorry, sagging, criminal ass?

I got to thinking about that this morning, on viewing more of the Baby Bushite's antics in Argentina, ANOTHER real free thinking nation as far as sheltering War Criminals goes.

So...can President Gore (pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease OR insert your favorite here) give some kind of executive order that strips the Pig and all of his criminal fucking family of armed protection paid for by US? It's bad enough that he'll be sitting on top of all those gas rights, water rights, and one of the biggest wildlife preserves down there ("...all RIPE for me an' mah ol' CHAIN SAW!"), but isn't there some way we can just make all of this THEIR problem and not ours?

1. Nah. Outsource it to Blackwater.

[treestar]

2. What is Blackwater?

[Tyler Durden]

3. Security/Mercinary outfit doing "work" in Iraq.

Nasty folks.

[treestar]

9. Thanks, would not be surprised to find they are a sub of Brown and Root

[Tyler Durden]

4. I don't care WHO does it...I don't want to PAY for it.

When he skips town, I want ALL of his ex-prez perks CANCELLED.

[aquart]

5. See, I would pay to keep Bush confined to Paraguay.

Hiding away, under guard, always completely terrified that people whose homes and families he destroyed will come and kill him in the most painful way possible.

And I would be happy to tell him every day how many plans were being laid to kidnap and torture him. Every single day.

6. On a plus note, Georgie only gets SS protection for 10 years

not life.

Clinton signed that one into law. :) He's the last one to get lifetime protection.

[treestar]

8. It's Clinton's fault that chimpy will be endangered in his 11th post

prez year????

Chimpy is so screwn.

[NYC Liberal]

18. That is if he makes it to 11 years post-presidency.

He'll probably follow in the footsteps of his distant relative Franklin Pierce and drink himself to death.

20. From your mouth to God's ear.

But if God was listening, Bush would have done a "Harrison," Although Cheney was no Millard Filmore: on second thought, God gave us a break on that one.

[NYC Liberal]

21. If he was listening, Bush wouldn't have been installed in the first place

;)

[Tyler Durden]

22. If anything on earth was proof that there is no God...

It would be the last 12 years.

WWII was pretty horrific though, but it all got ironed out: this never will I'm afraid.

[treestar]

7. Is there such a thing as post-presidential impeachment?

Say chimpy is not impeached, but can this aspect, the post-prez priviliges, be limited? One would hope that whatever laws apply have a section for that. Suppose chimpy commits more high crimes and misdemeanors after he is out of office?

11. I'd go for a War Crimes Tribunial.

[Tyler Durden]

12. Nope, but there's always The Hague.

I don't think the International Criminal Court has a "Statute of Limitiations" on Mass Murder and War Crimes.

I should live so long.

[NYC Liberal]

19. No but then he could just be arrested and charged just like

anyone else. No more "executive privilege"!

(Though you know he'd try it anyway.)

[treestar]

23. That picture in your sig of Barb is one of the scariest things I have ever seen

:scared:

[NYC Liberal]

24. I posted this in another thread but

:)

[leftofthedial]

10. And do we have to protect him from extradition?

[Tyler Durden]

13. Paraguay don't extradite NOBODY.

There are little German villages down there, complete with their little beer halls, displaying Nazi unit flags and lots more of that "Historical Cultural Memorabilia."

OOM pah pah.

[leftofthedial]

14. how does it work if he's indicted (before fleeing to Naziland)?

would the Secret Service try to "defend" him from the FBI agents who came to arrest him?

[Tyler Durden]

16. The Secret Service got the bin Ladens out on Sept 12th, didn't they?

Personally, I've always been a little leery of having a government agency whose initials are "SS."

[catmandu57]

15. I don't know

but that is something worth changing the constitution over. That and limiting severely the power of presidential pardon.

[Tyler Durden]

17. I GOT IT! We can hire Pakistan's I-SI to pick him up and drop him off in The Hague.

The Directorate for Inter-Service Intelligence is supposed to be one of the NASTIEST spy agencies in the world, far surpassing MOSSAD and CIA.

For an extra couple of bucks they might even demonstrate some of those interagation techiniques the gentleman wants us to use.
