Indictments: Will Bush play it cool, or will he resort to desperate acts?
One thing I've been wondering all along as I watch Fitzie do his thing. If the indictments hit, will Bush play it cool and let the law do it's thing, or will he engage in some desperate acts that we need to watch out for?

Will the likelihood of desperate acts increase as the indictments flow up the ladder to the Oval office? Is Bush stacking the SC in case he gets indicted? Are the rumors of military action in Syria a distraction from pending legal action? Do we need to worry about imminent terrorist attacks as Fitzie prepares to make announcements?

Which route do you think Bush will take - the high road, or the low road?

1. I don't think...
He'll do anything, cause Rove won't be there to tell him what to do!

2. Low road. Could he fire Fitzgerald?
Might pull another Saturday Night Massacre, like Nixon did with Archibald Cox.

7. If he was gonna do that, he would have already.
Personally I think he's been put on notice by some folks at the agency to not fuck with this investigation. You know, picture of JFK's grave on his bike seat, stuff like that. Rove probably had to explain to him what it meant.

3. I'd vote for the avoidance through drugs & alky route
followed by some incredibly strange behavior as his handlers are stripped from him.

Got his wife to come with him to pound some nails at a photo op(Habitat project)..she had to answer many questions to hard for him to answer.

Visited NOLA 17 times.....over kill

8. This is the guy who sat in a Florida schoolroom for 7 minutes
waiting for someone to come and tell him what to do about 9/11. I don't think we're going to be seeing much of W for a while after the indictments come down.

10. Isn't it funny?
Rove will have to tell Bushy how to "spin" his own indictment!
