Bush on the Constitution: 'It's just a goddamned piece of paper' -
lazarst
reply "Last month, Republican Congressional leaders filed into the Oval Office
to meet with President George W. Bush and talk about renewing the controversial
USA Patriot Act.

Several provisions of the act, passed in the shell shocked period immediately
following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, caused enough anger that liberal groups
like the American Civil Liberties Union had joined forces with prominent
conservatives like Phyllis Schlafly and Bob Barr to oppose renewal.

GOP leaders told Bush that his hardcore push to renew the more onerous
provisions of the act could further alienate conservatives still mad at the
President from his botched attempt to nominate White House Counsel Harriet Miers
to the Supreme Court.

“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush retorted. “I’m the President and the
Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way.”

“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the
provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a
goddamned piece of paper!”

Let me know what you think.

Here are the brand new highlights from the public area of the Democrats for America's Future ...

Bush is not only bulldozing ammendments but anything that gets in his way, people, trees, animals, children, and God if he can get away with it.....

BUSH BULLDOZES FIRST AMENDMENT - President Bush may not want to see his White House staff face criminal prosecution for their national security leaks, but he is clearly itching to put behind bars the reporters who are trying to expose his spying on Americans and the growing list of other Bush abuses of power ...



EDWARDS - BUSH IS WORSE THAN NIXON - Former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C., says George W. Bush is the "worst president of our lifetime," and "absolutely" worse than Watergate-tainted President Richard M. Nixon ...

Dear Friends,
We would like to ask your help in spreading the word about a very important new
project: the CD by US-THE BAND - "GLOBAL WARNING"!
The progressive political movement is gathering steam. Every day, millions of
people look to Internet sites like TruthOut, FreePress, and TomPaine that give them the true story of what is happening with our government and the lying, corrupt individuals that (unfortunately) are running it. Political action groups like MoveOn.org and People For The American Way are continually getting folks to write letters to Congress about the issues that concern US and to contribute funds for consciousness-raising ads, billboards, and TV commercials.
But a political movement needs more than the rhetoric of words. It needs more than the horrifying pictures we see on the news every day. To truly spread its message into the hearts and minds of the people, a movement needs... songs!
And US-THE BAND - "GLOBAL WARNING" has those songs! The kind of songs that will bring US together as one big family that shares the same beliefs, hopes and dreams. The kind of songs that will inject some much-needed humor, audacity, and fun into this movement of ours!
Please help spread the word about one of the best "political pop" CDs of this or any year! Send out some emails! Tell all your friends about it!
And, if you are so inclined...please buy one yourself!
"GLOBAL WARNING" is now on sale at http://cdbaby.com/ustheband
And US-THE BAND will donate 1/3 of all proceeds to worthy
progressive/Democratic organizations!
The line in the sand has been drawn. The choice has never been clearer.
Either you're one of US - or you're one of THEM!
Let's fight back with music!
Peace & Love,
Barry and Clarita
