What about Crimes Against Humanity? What about September 11th high treason, deliberately allowing those attacks without doing a God damned thing to try and stop them? Or the numerous Mossad operatives arrested, made classified, and released in the wake of 9-11? I guess to call the Bushies treasonous and war criminals, you'd have to admit that the top Dems are also treasonous and war criminals for going along with them? And admitting we're in a tyranny with no opposition isn't all that funny. Crimes of the State http://crimesofthestate.blogspot.com/ Hey Jon,

When are you going to talk about impeaching and imprisoning the whole filthy, treasonous lot of them?

What about Crimes Against Humanity?

What about September 11th high treason, deliberately allowing those attacks without doing a God damned thing to try and stop them?

Or the numerous Mossad operatives arrested, made classified, and released in the wake of 9-11?

How dare he call a spade a spade. I am Army veteran who served 11 years, 3 of which was as an Infantryman and I knew from the beginning that these cowards didn't know what they were doing. When you take to rich draft dodger and put them in charge of our military bad things happen. That's the problem with Chicken Hawks, they are cowards who will fight with other people children blood, but are afraid to spill their childrens blood. Anyone who avoided going to Viet Nam purposely is a COWARD and that's all there is to it. All of the people who support these cowards should be ashamed because all of those poor young men who died saving their (cowards) sorry A-ses. How would these so called conservatives think if young men stopped going to Iraq right now. I think young men of today should do what the cowards did back then, like dodge the war by joining the Texas Air National Guard and getting deferrments for college. Then thirty years from now that could become a Republican President with a record of dodging a war and calling a war hero a coward.

Gonzo evidently did well enough in his undergraduate work and his LSAT to get into Harvard Law School. Bush has told friends that Gonzo has a mind like a steel trap. He was a Texas State Supreme Court Justice. But, he can't remember any details from an important meeting he had a few months ago in which they discussed attorney firings. Now, an intelligent person might assume that I meant "know" figuratively, because any thinking person knows that things just don't add up here. Of course you don’t, Michael.
