This Administration is proof that anything can be gotten away with.
They are criminals and belong in prison yet there they are.

I know the truth of how criminal the Bush Administration has been and my children and their children will know it.

The lies and behavior of these criminals will never be forgotten.

1. Unfortunately, I fear repercussions that will echo for years- a constant
reminder of the failure and corruption of this administration.

4. They sure have.
How many American know that W spent 1 year in community service for coke or
that the Ohio 2004 was run through the RNC's computers in Chattanooga, TN?

5. Anything can be gotten away with...
if you first divide the country and make people afraid to speak out. In other words, you need to be a Repug.

If you happen to be a moderate, then you'd better keep it in your pants, buster.

And if you are unlucky enough to be a liberal, you'd better not look at a conservative funny. Don't make eye contact. Don't speak unless spoken to. Just say "yes sir" or "yes ma'am" and bow your head as you back away.

Them's just the rules, sir. I don't make'em, ah just follow'em.

7. "Ordinary men do not know that everything is possible." --David Rousset
David Rousset, The Other Kingdom (1947)


Now I want to tell you something important.
Forget everything else, if you like,
but don’t forget this. As the historian
Simon Dubnow was marked for death by the Nazis
he exhorted his companions to open their eyes
and ears. He urged them to memorize each detail,
each name, every sigh and the color of clouds
as well as the executioner’s gesture. Circumscribed
as I might be, I’ve accepted this obligation.

-- Evan S. Connell, Points for a Compass Rose (1973)

8. sorry but they could not have gotten to where they are w/o congress
and still they are ready to rubber stamp an attorney general who
believes in water boarding, and not holding telcos responsible for
illegal taps

I have never seen an opposition party so impotent or incompetent

12. please restructure your sentence so I understand what you are saying
Edited on Sun Oct-21-07 07:56 PM by still_one
"dems that will not their rep"...???

Also you seem a little personal also, referring to me as the " anthrax guy "

Great way to establish a dialog which I don't think you actually want
either your way or the other person is full of crap

Great way to convience someone of your position

13. The thing about the media
is by hawking on the bush administration and "gaining" admission to touch them every so often, they feel close to power. Must pump em up. Remember all the kids in school who let the jocks get away with stuff because they were the POWER. And felt privileged if the click even talked to them, well that's what the press reminds me of those bunch of "suck ups".

15. They control the media.
They control the Courts.

The control the Executive branch.

Good bet they control Congress.

What they can't control is the TRUTH.

The lies and behavior of these criminals will never be forgotten.

Well said, Postman.
