could you ever forgive Bush?

[ButterflyBlood]

let's say a few years after getting his ass booted out Bush comes out and tells all. He reveals all the info of the coup of 2000, the conspirators, the involvement of Halliburton, LIHOP, everything. his exposes leads to Cheney, Rummy, Rove and all those most responsible being promptly arrested.

even in that case I don't think I could forgive him. Maybe hold him in slightly lower regard. But it's going to take a lot of repentence for what he's done.

[Katarina]

1. No

Not ever. No way. NO!

[burrowowl]

2. NO!

He should be in an orange suit and in manacles and shackled with the rest of his gang.
It was bad enough Nixon was pardonned.

[Qanisqineq]

3. Not no but hell no

[Lugnut]

4. No!

Absolutely not. Never.

[neebob]

5. Like that'll ever happen

but no.

[Gemini Cat]

6. No.

He left too many corpses to ever be forgiven.
He's ruined too many lives.

:dem:

[JailForBush]

7. No one is more deserving of the death penalty. N/T

[opihimoimoi]

10. Stoneing is too good for the chimp

Big Jagged rocks recommended

[ninkasi]

8. No.

He's done too much damage, and caused too many deaths.

[Gothic Sponge]

11. No

and BTW........NO!

[pink_poodle]

9. Unless he can put back all those blown up limbs.............

and bring to life all those dead people in the countries America has invaded..........nope.

[stepnw1f]

13. Hell no...

He intentionally did what he did to we Americans and the World around us. Now we stand on the brink of WWIII. This not over...

[calimary]

33. Couldn't have said THAT one better, myself.

[Sugarbleus]

12. NEVER, not in a million years. n/t

[JackRiddler]

14. In spiritual terms? Sure.

But we are holding an international war crimes tribunal for the Bush mob regardless.

[4morewars]

15. LMAO

How long do you think he would live after "telling all" ?
Besides, I don't think that imbecile knows half of what is going on, I could be wrong though.

[Semi_subversive]

16. F*** NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not even if I knew for fact he was rotting in Hell!

[southerngirlwriter]

17. Yes.

I tried forgiving him daily for that day's misdeeds, but that took too much energy, so now I'm going to forgive him for everything on January 21st of next year, when President Kerry begins his first full day of office.

He doesn't deserve forgiveness; that's not the point. I don't deserve to carry around the weight of this anger, rage, hatred, fear, and resentment. I will forgive him to free myself.

On edit: I wrote my reply before reading the rest of the thread. I am saddened by the power * has over my fellow DUer's. While he's in office, yeah, it's tough to forgive and let go and move on.

However, if y'all carry this pain and anger around with you when he's gone, guess who you're hurting -- YOU!! Does * really deserve to live in your head?? He's already living in all of our heads, rent-free. When he's out of office, I'm evicting him from my brain. All my energy will be positively directed in helping to heal the country.

[Zhade]

28. I respectfully suggest otherwise.

Should we be successful in forcing him out of the White House - one way or the other - he must be held accountable for the blood on his hands.

After that we'll talk forgiveness.

[For PaisAn]

18. No!

No!

[ConcernedCanuk]

19. . . . . . . NOPE . . . . . .

.

[Kinkistyle]

If he reformed himself and became a liberal

Sure. Everyone deserves forgiveness, granted that they realize the error of their ways and change them. If he's still the idiot, jack-ass repug he is now, then no way in f'in hell.

I mean Dennis Byrd used to be a racist and now he is one of the most outspoken Democrats, so anything really is possible.

[Product of Evolution]

24. Robert Byrd you mean?

Never heard of Dennis...

[OhioStateProgressive]

35. i think Dennis Byrd is a former NFL player who was paralyzed

[NJCher]

20. I'd carry a bigger burden if I forgave him

I think I'd feel like beating my head against the wall everytime I thought of him.

[woofless]

21. If he goes away and stays gone, sure.

Hate hurts the hater much more than it could ever hurt the object of that hate.

[alittlelark]

22. Simple answer.........

NEVER, NO, NO WAY, FORGET IT, F**K NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wapsie B]

23. Not at all.

Lucifer can have his way with him.

[camero]

25. Yes, if he's behind bars for life

That way he cannot hurt others again.

[Dr Fate]

26. Yes- put him back on the pig-farm...

...and let him clear brush. That's good enough for me. No need to divide the country in further than the election itslef is already going to do... I have nothing against him personally...

[Zhade]

Well, maybe the families of all the dead have something against him...

...as do millions of others.

We cannot just leave him alone once he's out. HE MUST PAY FOR HIS CRIMES.

[Dr Fate]

30. The election will tear this country apart...

...the aftermath should be for healing, not further division. Put him back on the pig farm & let Kerry take care of the Vet's families...

[Zhade]

27. I won't rest until that traitor is tried for war crimes.

Should he plead a full confession, spill everything he knows and share the documentation, then decide to swallow a bottle of sleeping pills or the end of a gun...

...no, I believe he'd still not be forgiven.

31. yes

I will forgive any person who asks for it.

[Minstrel Boy]

32. Sure. But I could never forgive

Clinton's penis.

Oh, and John Kerry's.

That's just inexcusable, whether it's true or not. Whatever it is. :crazy:

[wellstone_democrat]

34. That's God's job

Its his concern to "forgive" people with sins of that magnitude. In conclusion: how can *I* forgive him if he confessed to "LIHOP"? My husband/wife/child/friend/loved one didn't die that day. I'll leave that part of the question to those who suffered not those who witnessed.

[1gobluedem]

36. No

Not in a million years. He sold this country and its reputation down the river. He is evil.

[Bandit]

37. It is a moot point. ~ Bush* will never admit wrong doing.

He should ask his favorite philosopher for forgiveness because not many here will give it. I personally would if he were to truely ask for it.
