Government: Criticism vs. insult
Zach Seemayer

I would like to know what this president has to do before he actually gets in any real trouble for his actions or crimes. Presidents of bygone days were actually held accountable for much less than what this man has done.

Shock and Awe. We delivered a constant bombardment on a country we say we are trying to liberate. The only thing it liberated were Iraqis from the terrestrial plain of existence. "Operation: Iraqi Freedom" is just as much a lie as is the "evidence" that got us into the war.

snip//


Now there is evidence beginning to emerge that suggests he may have ordered CIA agent Valerie Plame's name to be leaked as political payback, he is having Halliburton, the company that his Vice President was the corrupt CEO of, be the one who is pumping the oil in Iraq. He suspended civil rights in many aspects when the PATRIOT ACT was passed, and can now keep anyone who is even suspected of being a terrorist for as long as he likes without representation.

He has been wire-tapping the phone-lines of American citizens and now is having the NSA go over millions of phone records and Internet search records without any warrants or court orders.

Its almost as if I sat down and tried to write a list of things he could do that would get him impeached, and now he feels like checking all of them off.

And the amazing thing is that, when he gets in trouble for a little while, he then does something even crazier, and everyone forgets about the other terrible thing he has done. I've never heard anything like it.

1. I probably have a few years on you.
I remember FDR and every president since then. Not all were above suspicion in their actions but believe me nothing like this criminal. I fear for our existence. Even Nixon wasn't this bad. Nixon skirted but never tried to break the constitution. He should go to jail and bring rove with him. I want him out of office.
