By his use of the so-called "signing statement" as a means to appropriate legislative power to himself, and as a means to make himself immune from signed law, George W. Bush has shown blatant disregard for the separation of powers set forth in the U.S. Constitution.

If George Washington had done the same, can we imagine that the first Congress would take no action, or delay action on the grounds of "bad timing", or political expediency?

  1. I hope that debate on this is brought to the floor of the "Most ethical and open congress of all time".  I mean, they haven't accomplished squat for 2 years, so they might as well work on something that will expose them as total idiots.


  2. Maybe they will give you a room with Kucinich in the nut house. You can count the UFO's together.

  3. Don't waste you time.  Spend it on electing new ones.  The present ones are too rotten and smell to high heaven.

  4. I am torn on this issue.  Between utilization of signing statements to justify ignoring and/or violating the very laws he signed into law and his violation of the FISA statutes by failing to obtain warrants in order to wiretap and read the email of American citizens, together with imprisoning at least two American citizens without charges for years in violation of their right to Habeus Corpus, there are a lot of grounds upon which Mr. Bush should be impeached.  However, the little dunce's term is about to expire.  There is a presidential election campaign that is under way.  The focus of the people is not upon impeaching a man who is about to go away anyway, thus they will regard it as a partisan exercise even though there is a sound legal basis for the impeachment.  As much as I would like the Congress to assert itself, I think that the time for impeachment passed and that it might be better to let the phony cowboy ride off into the sunset.  Hopefully never to return.

  5. No.

    And anybody who supports the US Constitution should oppose these articles.

    Frightening how willing the liberals are to ignore the US Constitution.

    Whats next?  Outlaw political parties that disagree with you?
