Bush speaks to Americans - Then why won't he speak to a unrehearsed
and hand picked audience.

He said the following today:

In a free society, there's only one check on political speech and that's the judgment of the American people," Bush said. "I ask all Americans to hold their elected leaders to account and demand a debate that brings credit to our democracy, not comfort to our adversaries."

I say if he wants to talk or ask something of Americans, then just go out and speak to Americans, not to a closed, handpicked, wealthy, republican group. Speak to all of us. Also, don't arrest us if we are not wearing a supportive t-shirt or have a bumper sticker you do not like.

4. The first time Bush speaks at an open event will be his last
Either the people will drag him off the stage and into prison or he'll flee in fear of his life.

6. The Sort of Debate President Bush Envsions
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 04:02 PM by bryant69
"I hold that we should give President Bush anything he needs to fight this war on terror."

"That's not far enough, I think we need to shut down the Congress and leave all legislative power in the hands of Karl Rove and other Domestic Policy Advisors."

"With all due respect, I beg to disagree. I'm sure we here in Congress can respond to our Presidents demands with swiftness and haste. There's no need to shut down Congress."

"But do we really want the President to have to wait for a vote when he's trying to protect Americans?"

"Hmmmm. Good point, but maybe . . ."
