bushler declares himself dictator

[DenverDem]

Since bushlerco has sought and received from its staff lawyers the argument that the commander in chief is not subject to the laws of America or the world and can make
and/or break any law he deems necessary therefore he has de facto declared himself the all powerful dictator.

Discuss generally.

1. You got it!!

We could see it coming. He even said it would be easier to be a dictator. Mission accomplished!

2. A Democratic president gets sued in civil court

but a Republican president is the law unto himself.
Funny how that works.

:crazy:

4. Orwellian and Soviet, isn't it?

3. discuss generally?

how about admirally?


I hope we aren't deluding and denuding ourselves. 7 points isn't much, not after the weak or so that shrub has gone through. The reagan thingie is but a blip that will mean nothing. I'd love to see 20-30 points ahead. But I am admittedly greedy.

Of course Shrub is not accountable to the constitution or world treaties. How dare they try to apply mere earthly standards to him? Isn;t he the second coming? Doesn't he hear voices? Is he god's representative to the christians of this world. and beware if you ain't in his sect.

The mere suggestion that he can avoid law is revolting. Nixon didn't even try to do what shrub has done routinely.

WE've had
Paul O'Neill
Wilson
Tenet
Zinni
gawd, I;ve lost track here. Someone help me out.

I am still waiting for a former Secret Service guy to come out and talk about his speaking in tongues and babbling at conferences before Rove shuts him up.

7. Because this is the "General Discussion" forum.

Weak humor.

8. weak humor

femur and tibia

Listening to VOA today, I heard his answer questions. again, his pronunciation is overly clear on some words, typically, at the very end of the sentence. But, the first 3-4 words are slurred, speeded up and run together. he sounded stoked today.

5. One-Party State

Is what they're after and they will get it any way they can. They have already shredded the substance of the constitution and only answer to their corporate masters. We are in deep shit.

6. He answers only to God.

and is, therefor, free to ignore national and international laws.
Do you see any flaws or potential dangers in this arrangement?
