Poll question: Do you think Bushco will find a reason not to leave office in 2009
I once thought this tin foil hat territory but as time has gone by and Bushco has demanded more and more power I begin to wonder.

1. Bush will be rendered the lame-duck president for his remaining time left
which probably will involve much time spent at Crawford since he and Cheney will
will have no power... (finally!)

2. Code Red
I have always feared they will never give up the power again. But at least I'm not afraid of all this terra nonsense.

5. Code Red, just yesterday I was wondering what Bush
would do to stay in power beyond his time. I remember it being mentioned in '04.

6. I think these things
We ain't seen nothin' yet.

People are basically stupid, and trust their governments.

They control every aspect of the power circles. All three branches of government and the media.

Again. We ain't seen nothin' yet.

9. No. Transfer of power in 2008 will be without extraordinary incident.
And a Democrat will be our next president.

10. I agree. The Pubs kept saying the same thing about BC.
At least Clinton really LIKED the job! I get the feeling Shrub is very unhappy that all these damn people want him to work all the time!

12. Yes. I remember Dubya's whiney, pitiful "It's hard work!" during the
first debate with John Kerry.

And the people I was with watching all said something to the effect, "Well if you don't want the job, get your ass out."

I think the presidency has overwhelmed little Dubya, and I think he'll be eager to leave it. It's left him a long time ago.

11. He'll just hand the mess over to the next guy.
I really don't think he will delay.

13. That's what he's done with all his messes his whole life!
Daddy, or Daddy's friends have bailed him out of every other venture when he failed, and he failed at all of them! He won't want to hang around DC!
