Bush called war criminal (and much more) on MSNBC
Edited on Sat Mar-04-06 03:22 PM by Lori Price CLG
'Scarborough Country' transcript for 02 March 2006 --MICHAEL SMERCONISH, GUEST HOST: We haven't talked—men, we haven't even talked about the war crimes trial. Dr. Rectenwald, are you going to support what's going on in Parsippany? A war crimes trial for the president of the United States? ...MICHAEL RECTENWALD, CITIZENS FOR LEGITIMATE GOVT.: That's right, and George Bush is luck he's not on trial for war crimes right now, because he is a war criminal ... What's the definition of a crime? It's breaking a law. He broke international law conducting the war in Iraq, plus he defrauded Congress in lying about the evidence. He should be impeached.

An earlier exchange:

SMERCONISH: I agree with you (David Horowitz) and I got to say—Michael Rectenwald, at home, I've got a five, a seven, a nine and a 17-year-old. I wouldn't want any of them, including the 17-year-old, exposed to this sort of thing (the Overland High School teacher, Jay Bennish, who criticized Dictator Bush, etc.) in a Geography class.

RECTENWALD: Yeah, well, I'd be more worried about Bush sending your 17-year-old to Iraq, but nevertheless...

1. Ouch! Talk about walking into it. It'd be a wake-up slap, if possible.
Probably not possible for Smerconish. But maybe his wife and kids were watching the show. If I were the 17 year old, I'd be thinking thoughts on Daddy's priorities.

3. BTW, Mike R. is going to be back on to debate Horowitz, Sunday,
March 05, at 1:15 p.m. EST. He is scheduled to appear on MSNBC's news (time approximate).

2. It Is Quite True, Ma'am
Edited on Sat Mar-04-06 03:50 PM by The Magistrate
The present regime has dorected armed forces of the United States to commit several serious violations of the Geneva Accords. There really is not even much room for debate about that statement.

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"
