Are you pissed off because Bush may get away with his crimes ?

[kentuck]

He's gotten away with everything his entire life. Why? Because he' a lying, conniving, bullshitting piece of crap?

And there is no doubt in my mind that crimes have been committed by this Administration, from the early days of their refusal to turn over the secret energy meetings minutes to the intentional lying to get us into an unnecessary war in the Middle East. And from Guantanamo to Abu Graib, there have been numerous crimes committed.

And from John Bolton to the DSM documents, the proof is there if we only had someone to uncover it. But we don't. And George Bush will probably get away with his criminal behaviors once again. And that pisses a lot of people off?

[Spock_is_Skeptical]

1. Yes, I'm pissed. No doubt about it.

[i miss america]

2. Pissed off? Not so much as amazed at the widespread indifference.

[Bullwinkle925]

8. Me too!

I guess as long as people can purchase their SUV's and be able to fill
'em up - they could care less.

I miss America as well. I'm nostalgic for the feelings that I used to have regarding my country. I hate this cynical jaded person that I'm becoming. I hate and loathe the bastards who are residing at the
White House. I feel horribly inept in reclaiming what it is that this country is SUPPOSED to stand for.

I am beginning to have an understanding as to the feelings people have felt througout history living under tyranny and dictatorships.
The fear and dread is truly beginning to be felt to the core of my being.

[xchrom]

10. indeed. we really must assess the character of our country

in relation not just to the powers that be -- but in terms of the masses who voted for bushco.

in this case ''the masses'' represents the very soul of america, the stuff we are made.

''we'' are ignorant, brutish, viciously vindictive as long as we can act out against someone much weaker than us -- and indifferent to the poverty and violence ''we'' help to create in the world.

right down to the last phoney conservative christian -- 'the corruption in our society is bone deep.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

3. I'm more amazed that some people are so doped up on religion and war

that they don't consider his crimes to be crimes

[HysteryDiagnosis]

4. so doped up on religion and war

Well said.....

[NativeTexan]

5. YEAH...It seems as if...

sometimes, that Bush's 2000 coup was more complete than we ever suspected!

He has GOT to be exposed for the Facists that he and Turdblossom ARE!!

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

6. I've posted my "after he leaves office" theory many times on DU:

1). Another "autobiographical" book, ghost-written again by Karen Hughes.

2). "Advisory" positions on Halliburton / Carlyle Group / other (war profiteering) companies linked to his Pappy and Uncle Dick. Attendance seldom required, no actual input expected, simply a lease on the Bush name

3). Lectures / speaking tours, similar engagements

4). Long, long days of getting high, fishing on his Pappy's boat, getting high, giving NOTHING back to society, getting high.

5). "George Bush Presidential Library." Karl Rove was asking ALL KINDS of "how much did this cost" questions at the opening of Clinton's. It will be a massive, overblown self-tribute and a celebration of his freedom-spreadin' presidency.

:grr:

[Ready4Change]

7. Pissed because this Administration has YET to pay for its wrong doings.

nt

[converted_democrat]

9. I'm not convinced he'll get away with it yet..........

October isn't her yet. If October passes with out indictments, then I'll be concerned. Until then I'm just going to relax, and hope for the best.

[wtmusic]

23. Hopefully it will continue long after October

there are numerous other crimes to answer for

[converted_democrat]

27. Yea, but October is all that really matters right now in regards to the

Plame investigation. If something does not happen before then, chances are they won't. The grand jury term expires then, and so does Fitz's position. (unless he is renominated)
OTOH- War crimes don't have an expiration date, in regards to prosecution.

[FreedomAngel82]

11. Of course

It really pisses me off. And people say he's a "Christian" really pisses me off too! He's nothing but a false wannabe who uses religion for his own greedy self. I would love nothing but him to get his justice one day! Ever since what he did to Ann Richards!

[Solly Mack]

12. More like stunned disbelief

at times...

Other times it seems like just another typical for America. (allowing crimes and corruption in government to go unpunished)

[Cleita]

13. He won't get away with this forever, but I am pissed off that

he has gotten away with as much as he has.

[Southsideirish]

21. As ye sow, so shall ye reap.

[w8liftinglady]

14. My son risks his life for that war criminal.

I expect him to be tried and convicted of war crimes of the highest nature.(I can dream,can't I?)

[lynettebro440]

15. What really sucks here

is that this has been going on since his dad was in office. I really want to know how come nobody has been able to follow the dots, per say? If you put together Senator John DeCamp of NE, Paul Bonnacci, the entire city of Omaha in the late 80's, child prostitutes running around the white house, Jeff Gannon, Bush....Every single person that has been able to connect the real true slime from the under belly of this administration ends up dead. Usually suicides, some stupid way, or they are never heard of again. I think the truth is if you get too close to this administration, the fear amoung all of them, repukes and dems alike, you will end up hurt in a bad way.

I lived in Omaha during the 80's, I had experience of what the power was all about (another post some other time) but look deeper here folks, these guys are worse then the mafia, they run the country.

[Doctor Panacea]

20. Bush cabal

I would love to hear about Omaha in the late 1980s. I am unfamiliar with that part of the story.

If the Bush cabal members are staring at any legal problems in 2008, you can bet that the Chimp will issue pardons to all concerned. Just put money on that. As for the Chimp himself, it is unlikely that he will face any legal threats. Even if the Democrats should win in 2008, the corporate thugs who are in control now will still be in control, and the Democratic President will be a constant target, just as Bill Clinton was for four years.

However, I am not sure that the Republicans can lose in 2008. They will intimidate voters and cheat at the polls as much as they need to do to win. These people are truly evil, and they are not going to give up power.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

16. He'll be joining a long list of unindicted/unconvicted criminals.

Just off the top of my head:

Henry Kissinger
Ollie North
Robert McNamara
Elliot Abrams
Paul Wolfowitz
Richard Perle
William Westmoreland

and, many, many, more.

[klyon]

26. wasn't North convicted

then pardoned
don't forget
Reagan
Bush1

KL

[SammyWinstonJack]

17. Pissed doesn't begin to describe how I feel.

I keep thinking what if a Democratic Administration had pulled even half of the crap bush**co.,Inc. has, they and we would be demanding impeachment, and rightly so. That is the part that pisses me off!

[Glenda]

18. (1) gets away with bad (2) doesn't do good

I don't know which bothers me more - that he gets away with crimes, of that he doesn't do anything good to actually make people's lives better.

[Mandate My Ass]

19. The whole family has been raping and pillaging this country for years

if not decades. The mafia has nothing on these lowlife criminals except that the mafia does not hold itself up as a paragon of virtue. The Bushes are utterly and completely shameless. They're sickening.

Treasongate would have been the undoing of anybody else. Anybody. But I predict pardons for everybody involved who's convicted with hardly a peep from the press.

[complain jane]

22. I'm past that.

What stunned me was finding out how stupid/complacent/incurious many American people (Bush voters) are.

What angers me is that Rove et al thinks the American people are so stupid that they can not only do this, but bring out the absolute worst in their supporters and sic them on those who want justice and truth. And that some of their base are not only stupid enough to buy it but vile enough to participate in it and embrace it.

What angers me too is that black is white according to the Bush bullshit and that there are so many lemmings in this country who believe in this administration no matter what it does.

Sometimes I feel sorry for them. Other times I just wish they'd rot in hell.

[klyon]

24. yes, they need to be stopped

their first crime was having two registered voters on the presidential ticket from Texas.

They are making a joke out of our legal system and our electoral system and our governmental system

KL

[leftofthedial]

25. I have been pissed off 24X7 since election night, 2000

perpetually

and it's gotten worse and worse and worse

[_TJ_]

28. That creep should be in jail

He is a goddamn war criminal at this stage IMO.

[wli]

29. the more I learn the more scared I get

Bushler & co. getting away with the crimes they've already committed has taken a back seat to abject fear of their future crimes, which we appear utterly powerless to prevent.

I'm relatively convinced they're going to kill me (along with many others) with either death squads, MIHOP "terrorist attacks," or provoking nuclear retaliation from the rest of the world.

[LWolf]

30. No.

I don't want to waste any more of my personal energy, or allow him to work me into a state of rage. It hurts me more than him.

I want him gone. I want him out of the white house, and I never want to hear the word "bush" again. If he or any of his gang can be convicted of any of his crimes along the way, I'll be grinning and applauding. If there is something I can do to speed the process along, I'm there.

He can and will experience the consequences he brings on himself; but...he doesn't get to push my buttons.

[Threedifferentones]

31. I'm pissed off at Bush period

[Vinca]

32. Life ain't fair . . . that's all I can say.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't an atheist so I might believe the bastard would fry in hell.

[lucca]

33. Yes!

Sometimes it gets me sick just thinking about what he has done to America.
I used to take so much for granted. ...
I never thought that all this corruption could happen in my country.
I cry with sadness, when I think about all our soldiers dieing each and everyday in an illegal war.

But, I do have hope that justice will prevail.
Yes, I too want this administration found guilty for the crimes that they have committed.
Bush does not deserve to be president (he never did).

He has never taken responsibility for anything, that he has ever done wrong.
I want that to change....and, I want that to change now.
