George Bush and the Constitution

From an article by Doug Thomson:

“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

Some people refuse to believe this happened, but Doug Thompson has published several more articles about it, insisting that he heard this from several sources who are at the meeting where Bush said it. I am sure it happened.

So let's talk about what a huge hypocrite George Bush is when it comes appointing federal judges who will strictly interpret the Constitution. It turns out that George Bush doesn't give a "goddamned" about the Constitution. He only appoints strict constructionisth judges because he heard that they are more likely to overturn Roe v. Wade and that's apparently all George Bush cares about when it comes to appointing judges. He appointed Harriet Miers because she was an evangelical Christian so he assumed she would do her best to make abortion illegal.

I like Justice Alito a lot better than George Bush because I believe that, even though some liberals may not like Alito, he really believes in the Constitution. He will interpret the Constitution in a way to limit the power of the federal government, which is a very good thing when someone like George Bush is running the federal government.

There's nothing wrong with respecting the Constitution, what's wrong is the incorrect interpretation, which is what Scalito will likely do.

George Bush just yet again proves why events like September 11th happened: with a moron like that in office, hubris is going to get you sooner or later.

I'm sorry to tell you, but, you DON'T know it happened. You are gossipping. If someone actually heard it, find the people who were at the meeting and supposedly heard it and verify it. Without doing that, it is not fact, only a rumor and you are no different than an old lady gossipping and spreading rumors about people she doesn't like. That's how the Salem Witch trials happened. 23 people were sentenced to death until the maddness stopped and they found out that the rumor was started by three teen agers who told a lie about a single lady who lived by herself on the outskirts of town. The town people chose to believe the teens because the old lady was different from them. They got caught up in the lies and believed them and became dangerous fools. Looks like you've fallen into the same trap.

No wonder not many people rea your blog.
