Transition to Kerry - what can Bush do from Nov 3 to Jan 20?

[NewJeffCT]

OK, from November 3rd to January 20, what do you think the lame duck Bush White House will do to further damage the country?

My predictions on a few things:

1) Gas prices will skyrocket. When oil hit $40 a barrel earlier this year, gas prices went up to record levels – around $2.00 a gallon nationally. To try & re-elect Bush, the oil companies have been taking a hit to their profits the past few months to keep gas prices down a bit. Gas prices have creeped back up to around $2.00 a gallon as oil has skyrocketed to $55 or so per barrel. However, with Bush losing the election, the oil companies will no longer have incentive to hold down gas prices. Can you say $3 a gallon? Just in time for Kerry to get the blame for the new recession.
2) More executive orders rolling back environmental regulations.
3) A quick nomination of Alberto Gonzales to the Supreme Court if Rehnquist resigns & the elevation of Scalia to Chief Justice. (Can he do this, even if it gets filibustered?)
4) More pushing of the religious agenda – previously, they started distributing pamphlets in the Grand Canyon that claimed it was Noah's flood that caused the Canyon to be formed...expect similar things with other national treasures.

1. Judicial Appointments

There will be no additional judicial appointments other than those already in committee. Certainly no supreme court appointments.

2. Remove all the GWB keyes from the WH computer keyboards n/t

6. bunch of up tight masturbators in the white house now

Just to stay on the safe side and for the prevention of STD transmission, I'd suggest the Kerry team replace the keyboards entirely! ;-)

3. He will go on vacation!

He will concentrate on what he does best - nothing good and head off to Crawford to scheme and dream so that he can present Daddy with his wish list for "Santa".

4. As a follower of the Pat Robertson dominionist political philosophy...

...there is plenty Bush and his neo-conservative operatives can do, but the greatest danger to this country and the world would be to accelerate the military adventures in the middle east and Korean penninsula. The following link contains some scary information but it needs to be brought out into the sunlight. Very few people are discussing or reporting about the influence of the dominionists in our government and around the world.

5. Attack Iran

7. This is what I think Kerry should do once inaugurated

Declare Bush Presidency ILLEGAL & reverse everything he's ramed thru the Congress, apoligize to the World for Bush's disgraces, pay reparations to Iraq for Bush's illegal war. Then Throw the bunch of them into prisons with live TV feed so we can all watch these criminals. We can have a Bush Channel, a Cheney Channel, an Ashcroft Channel etc. I'd be willing to pay for the BushCo tier

8. 1) pull plug on Rehnquist 2) Pardon KenntBoy, et. al., 3)...

...Put the Fake ranch up for sale.
4) Float resume for Baseball Commisioners Job (careful--he could invade Wrigley Field...)
5) Reunite w/ girl/boy/whateverfriend
6) Invade something. His Daddy sent troops to Somalia as a "screw you good luck" parting gift for Bill Clinton. Expect Cornholio Jr. to do something equally (or more) diabolical.

9. and a whole lot of paper shredding.

10. Forgot that one.

I bet a lot of paper shredding, as well as hard drive erasing, CD/Disk destroying...

11. As Commander in Chief, Bush will order nuclear attacks on

Fallujah, Teheran, Pyongyang, and Damascus. Like any spoiled brat, Bush would rather destroy his toys than share them with others. He would rather bring on World War III and let Kerry deal with it, than to willingly give up his power.

12. Get a good heat on

[montana500]

13. this

is right on:


"2) More executive orders rolling back environmental regulations."

[Hamlette]

14. executive orders is all he can do and they are easisly overturned

the only real worry is he will destroy the evidence.
