Repubs act as if Bush was elected with a mandate.... |

Edited on Wed Nov-12-03 10:07 PM by kentuck
If there was any president in history that should be looking for bipartisanship and working together, it should be George W Bush. One would think he would understand the circumstance under which he is presently in his office. He said he was going to be a "uniter, not a divider", but he has been anything but.
Now he has his Repub elfs in the Senate pulling an unheard of 30hr-anti-filibuster in an attempt to ram thru 4 more right-wing judges. He should be grateful with what he has already been given but he seems to have a greed for power that cannot be satisfied.

1. He was elected by 56% of the Supreme Court! |
|
Bush: 56% Gore: 44%
That's a mandate, isn't it?
</sarcasm>

5. Yup, straight out of Bushevik Ed Luttwak's Coup Manual |
|
which the Bunnypants* Gang clearly consulted before seizing Amerika in it's vampirous grip. For some pretty excerpts from the Bushevik manual: http://www.subliminal.org/news/coup.html

and having orin whiner hatch for a representative brings this idiocy home for me. why don't they just put forth some decent judges for consideration. the whole thing is laughable. forgive my punctuation, cat on lap, can only type with one hand.
