TREASONGATE: What did George W. Bush Know And When Did He Know It?

TreasonGate: What did George W. Bush Know And When Did He Know It?
The new Gonzalez/Card '12-Hour Gap' and the Rove Lie that Bush May Be Covering Up.


We are, by no means, the first to point to these questions today. The net is abuzz this morning. But we've managed to put together a useful collection of several of the most to-the-point articles on the matter, along with adding a bit to the question concerning exactly "What did George W. Bush Know and When did he Know it?"

As predicted last week, the question would soon be on everyone's virtual lips. It looks like today is the day it's being asked everywhere. Big time...

2. He had the memo on Air Force One that week
I would be surprised if he didn't order Rove, et al, to wreak their revenge. Your question is apt, and for the youngsters here, very relevant. I doubted it a few days ago, but now I think this will go to the heart of the matter: The deceit that took us into this horrendous war. That's the real issue here. Worst president, worst administration in U.S. history. Period, bar none, my 80 year old former father in law agrees.

3. Does every scandal have to have a "gate" suffix?
Simple treason appears adequate.

4. Check out this BuzzFlash article!!
THE question for Congress to ask Judge John G. Roberts' during his confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice

Can loyalty to the President also be treason?
http://www.buzzflash.com/contributors/05/07/con05249.html

This is possibly THE question for Congress to ask Judge John G. Roberts' during his confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice. The balance of power between the three branches of our government here in the U.S. may be at dire risk due to a long-time loyalty between the nominee and the President. The answer to this question may stop the nomination process in its tracks if the answer reveals that loyalty between friends trumps his loyalty to do justice.

Let's imagine for a moment that a member of the Bush Administration was pardoned by the president after being indicted for say, leaking a CIA undercover agent's name to the public. And let us also say for the purposes of this question that the Executive Clemency order was issued after the indictment was proffered but before the case was prosecuted. The very timing of this pardon would virtually steal the golden fleece of justice from American citizens before our Justice system could work its magic.

So then let's further imagine that the federal prosecutor had no choice but to challenge the legality of the executive branch's pre-empting the full and fair prosecution of the law.

Now, finally, here's the question to be posed to Judge Roberts...- "If the President issued this imaginary pardon BEFORE the conviction, and the resolution of this imaginary case came all the way down through the system to end up on your docket, how would you, as a Justice of the Supreme Court, likely rule?

5. That's a tough question especially about someone who gets spellbound....

by childrens books. All he really has to do is plead the stupid defense and he's off the hook.

"Well, you see, I was reading my book and, you know, the one about the goat? I love that silly little goat. Anyway, I was readin this book and ole Gongie called me and tolded me Roverino and Skootie-Poot may be in some hot water. I can't recall much after that cause I had to smoke a shit load of weed to come down from all that coke. I crashed like a hijacked airliner. Heh heh! I don't remember a fuckin thing. Did I say that out loud?"
