A prediction regarding Bush/Cheney
I was talking with a friend of mine who lives in Seattle the other day and we started talking about the election, fraud, recounts, etc...

He was telling me that he has a friend who is a psychic and he is very accurate with his predictions. Now, I'm not to confident in predictions but this is one that I would like to see come true. My friend told me that the psychic predicted that Bush and Cheney will not serve their full term. He said that "it will be the first time in history that a President and Vice President are forced to resign."
He wasn't sure of the exact reason but felt it had something to do with 9/11.

We can only hope...

And Hatert would be the lamest of ducks because he would be totally unelectable as President.

29. Unfortunately
the machine would still be in place. It might be a crippling blow, but the media machine, the think tanks, the fund raising network, the lobbyists, the voting machines, and a whole network of politicians that see what can be gained by pushing one agenda.

Bush and Chaney getting kicked out would be a good start, but we would still have our work cut out for us.

Now if the election was overturned, that would be even better :)

I wouldn't put it past Dennis the Menace to pick the House's Criminal Kingpin--Bugboy McCockroach--as a veep--and demand, under penalty of the deaths of their families, to confirm it.

I'm still beside myself thinking about what he said to those soldiers. "You don't go to war with the army you want, you go with the army you have." Yeah, but you don't go to war at all for NO GOOD REASON. Bastards. What a waste.

They need to get someone groomed to run in 2008, and his health problems are a great cover. I'm not so sure about Bush though. Also, who would become President if both resign?

20. You know what I would really like to see...
In my fantasy world, I have stopped imagining that the Plame scandal is what brings down the Bushies. (Too unrealistic.)

I now fantasize about Bush and Cheney being outed as believers in John Titor who are trying to bring about the events they believe were predicted by Titor.

(People who believe they have spoken to time traveling messageboard posters are really the bottomfeeders of the conspiracy theory community in my opinion. They and their ilk give a bad name to Nibiru believers. )

23. Freepers...
Some freeper on another discussion board wrote that "80% of the deaths in Iraq are the liberals' fault."

I told him, "How about some proof? What is your source for this amazing revelation?"

He, of course, could not produce anything and used the old standby -- that I was a traitor because I opposed the war and didn't support the troops.

Fuck those assholes -- I hate them all!

26. Sending troops to war WITHOUT ENOUGH RIFLES, AMMO, ARMOR
is PATRIOTIC...even if the war was an INVASION of a nation that had never done anything to us & was no threat to the USA or anyone else.

To NOT want our men, women & teens sent to die for a pack of total lies thatt he entire world knew were nothing but lies, and without enough things like RIFLES AND AMMO AND ARMOR is so unpatriotic!

To the freepers.

30. Whenever freepers say our lack of support is costing soldiers' lives
Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 03:10 AM by magellan
...hit them with this: a recent poll shows 57% of Brits think taking military action to oust Saddam was wrong, and yet British troops (who by the way have a smaller ratio of soldiers to Iraqi civilians than the US*) suffer fewer casualties statistically.

Compare that to 47% of Americans who oppose the war.

It's true, there's no way around the argument even if you look at past polls. If dissent causes deaths as freepers claim then there should be a lot more British casualties, because the British have opposed the war in far greater numbers than Americans have.

Give me the reality-based community any ol' day of the week. ;)

Edited to clarify: the ratio of British troops to Iraqi civilians in their areas of control is smaller than the ratio of US troops to Iraqi civilians in US-controlled areas.

31. There was another prediction on one of the threads about two weeks ago
The predictuion was from two psychics, and the one said that the Election was "definitely" Kerry's. And that Bush would be 'no longer connected to any power by early 2006.'
I hope we don't have to wait that long. At the rate things are going, I don't think this nation or the world can endure even a year more of the present Administration.
Although I have noticed that Kerry is surrounded 'numerologically' by the number "7." And oddly enough, December 13 is a "7." January 6 is a "7." And the year 2005 is a "7." Curiously enough, January 20 is NOT a "7"...although another day near that COULD be...if the Inauguration needs to be slightly delayed due to Electoral dispute. Though if it IS delayed slightly, that would see Kerry serving "7 years" (assuming he's re-elected...as I feel he would be).
By the way, the earlier psychic predictions said that 'Kerry would be bringing to this nation and the world great Peace.'

Even though the above may be something, or nothing...I remain optimistic!

32. i am on a spiritual board
and there are ways you can legitimately see the future, all of us can, by the energy. what we do today creates tomorrow. anyway, before the election when it looked like kerry would win, i had a person saying no, that in the numbers of the two, kerry owed bush a debt and bush would win getting pay back for debt. as much as i didnt want to hear that, this person is pretty consistant and clear up to the end said, nope, bush would win. not cleanly but would win

i have had a number of people see they will not last more than two years though. these are people that have no interest in politics, this is what they do with their lives. so interesting you have someone coming up with this too

38. different dimensions, progression, evolution
take religion. right now in the old fart male rule, walking into female energy, it is a process of merging the male and female

old testament, republican, less evolved, still working out their lower vibration. sit in 3d because of fear, still needing a patriachal type system. the reason so bad right now, raring its ugly head on its last stance, why the absurdity all around

4th deminsion, more the christ conscious, new testament

5th deminsion, a bringing past and future to now. a clearty and peace and stillness. not the battle

it is becoming one. the embracing of spirit, or christ conscious within and seeing we are it, and handing over to universe

high vibration in purity and ergo stillness

33. It May Be For Medical Reasons
Many of us don't believe bush has ever gotten sober. He is at risk for pancreatic and/or liver cancer, both conditions usually rapidly fatal. Crashcart's heart has got to be in bad shape and he is not immune from cancer, either. It shall be interesting to watch: look for yellowing skin and eyeballs on the chimpster.

In the true spirit of all thangs Nixon do ya suppose Arlen Specter will replace Cheney then succeed Boo$h so we can give him the ultimate reward a la Ford. (sarcasm/satire/silliness inspired by the Warren Commission). :P

46. A different prediction
I posted one on the board a couple of weeks ago. I do not think Cheney will serve the full term. I think this is planned though, it is strategic

The Repubs want a strong leader to elect in 2008. A Repub with experience at this point would have a much greater advantage than any democrat we could offer

By placing a NEW VP in office, they would have an 'incumbent' to offer up in 2008. Putting them in a better position

We all know Cheney will not/could not run for the office. So in a way he is a 'lame duck' vice pres. They can use his ill health as an excuse for him to resign

I have been saying this for months now.....ever since the media first asked the question of whether or not Cheney would stay on the ticket. It was clear to me then.......of course he will stay on for now. To dump him would be admitting some sort of weakness, pointing to some kind of guilt. But if they win, he will resign after the inauguration

And Waaalaaa! A week or so after the election, Cheney gets weak and winds up being rushed to the hospital

All planned I tell you!

47. Agreed, I had the same idea above
I didn't expect Cheney to be hospitalized one week after, but that gives them a great cover. Like you said, they can dump him now w/o any guilt, and at the same time have essentially 2-3 years of free campaigning for the VP who will be the 2008 candidate.

Is Hastert next in line if both resign?

56. Yup
When you think about it, its a brilliant plan really.
And if I can think it up, if you can think it up.....some inner rethug has already thought it up. Guaranteed!

The only problem with the theory is that Cheney seems to be the man in charge, he would have to have some kind of continued access. Unless of course, the group of cronies he belongs to just continues down the same predestined path as outlined in the Project for a New American Century

yuck...

52. IMO, Cheney isn't much of a stretch
They need to groom someone for 2008. What better way than to give that candidate 2-3 years of free advertising as the VP. Cheney's health gives them the perfect cover, as he can resign without the administrations admitting he was wrong. If I had to bet now, I would bet against Cheney staying all 4 years. Bush resigning would be a bit more of a stretch though.
