If Bush's approval ratings are hovering in the 30's when Fitzgerald
comes out with his indictments....OUCH!!! I predict most of the Republican party will abandon him. If you think it's bad for Bush now, just wait until the Plame scandal blows up full force! This could get really interesting but for some reason I find it hard to feel too much joy knowing all the damage he has done to our country and the world.

I wonder if Bush has started drinking again? This would be a good time to start up again.

1. I'm hoping they've shackled themselves too tightly
to cut themselves loose easily.

Evil, ain't I?

3. I don't think the politicians will abandon him
A lot of members of the House are more conservative than Bush is

Those who aren't may continue as they've always done with Junior:

4. Rove, Iraq going down in flames, Robberson,
Venezuela, Joe Wilson, Cindy Sheehan, growing unrest in the country, gas prices through the roof, polls sinking sinking sinking...

We waited a long time for this moment. Think of all the heartache we've been through these past 5 years.....waiting.....waiting patiently for him to get his just desserts.....

And now? We EARNED this moment. I'm savoring it......

9. Nah, they'll just circle the wagons and say "Nobody has proven
anything yet. Let them all have their day in court." None of the accused will be fired or resign. It will be business as usual.

Mark my words.

10. Keep in mind he's just a special Prosecutor, and NOT
Edited on Sat Aug-27-05 12:14 AM by Tiggeroshii
an independant council. Back in Nixon's time, Nixon fired a good many Special Prosecutors once they came out with indictments. Of course, firing Fitzgerald would be a political blow to the administration entirely. That hasn't stopped Bush from making other incredibly bad poltical choices in the past. It's about saving his ass, not holding anybody accountable.

06 looks sweet.
