1. Nothing like that is going to happen.. They ain't going anywhere..
There are two articles today stating that they are planning for 20-70 years of global conflict.. They ain't losing power, or their profits anytime soon..

5. "Always with the negative waves Moriarty, always with the negative waves."
"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?"

7. I'm being a realist.. It's served me well over the years.. These folks
are planning a massive conflict to make massive wads of cash.. The Military Industrial Complex is one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful group on Earth.. I really doubt that they are going to let the guy that is giving them the golden goose hang..

4. According to Bush, if you are the president there is no such thing
as a crime. By definition, if he does it, it's legal for him to do it.

11. Actually, I assume his followers will be the ones who do it.
IF they realize they've been duped and discover their extreme humiliation, I am willing to bet the RW pro-death penalty folks will turn on Bushler in the worst way.

10. bush commited treason
the moment he was "selected" for office by a cowardly supreme court. any other details of this maladministration are redundant.

any1 that convinces themselves that this is the United States of America is certifiably delusional.

12. technically, I don't think he committed treason
it's a very limited definition constitutionally. but it's close.

no hanging. a small box, somewhere very cold.

14. It does hinge on fine points of law.
That I agree upon.

And it had better be a totally fair trial even if he wouldn't afford us the same rights.

They have recently built a fine new prison on Pitcairn Is. I think that would be a suitable place of exile.
