damn staright
i hate the wanker, i know why he invaded iraq, and oil is only a small bonus in comparison. one, he gets control over a country. two, he gets paid 80 billion dollars to do it. 80 billion that should have been paid to soldiers, and reuilding costs, etc. he gets a further x billion per month simply for staying in control and keeping everything *normal* by government standards. bush wouldnt sign up for the kyoto agreement simply because america ( not meaning you guys, i mean the governement k? ) made the whole in the atmosphere. they tested nukes up in the upper stratosphere, and on huge peices of desert. that ripped out the atmosphere, and also thats why there are huge radiation testing zones out in the desert. those are only two things that happened whilst bush was ( and is ) in power. the incident with the towers... dont get me started... just fold up a dollar into two halves, that is, fold each side like a paper aeroplane. then fold the corners up at the bottom... wat do ya get... bipadeebopadeebooooo! |

Yes if he truly had to pass everything with Congresses approval, he would be just a figure head, another congressman trying to push his agenda through. Which means Congress would have such power that the executive branch (pres.) would no longer be a check & balance to them. i'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade, but the whole truth isn't what they teach you in a high school textbook.

I wish he could talk to us without cue cards and not fumble his words when he does try, maybe I would then give him the benifit of the doubt that he has ideas of his own.

Life can be as bitter as dragon tears. But whether dragon tears are bitter or sweet depends entirely on how each man perceives the taste.

um you mean he can't do things like hand over no-bid contracts for reconstruction in New Orleans to Halliburton without anyone's approval? because he did just that. when congress is already supposedly investigating them for vast overchargings in their Iraq contracts.
yes there are checks and balances but there are many things that can be done outside of that system. he can make war for 30 days I think it is without congressional approval. he's done that. once you're 30 days into a war is Congress going to say oh no mr. president you shouldn't do that, pull everyone out - not likely. the concept of checks and balances is an overarching concept of how the government works but if you look into the nitty gritty details, the numerous loopholes, the president still has vast powers to do many things. |
