  • The most likely pardons

    I would think some pardons have been left off here. The most likely pardons would be the entire Bush master crew of corruption. I mean the entire members of the administration for the past 8 years. Including George Bush himself. That is why impeachment should still be on the table.

  • Hypocrite Extraordinaire

    In Texas Bush executed with pleasure a born- again Christian (like himself) named Karla Fay Tucker. Her problem was she confessed totally to her heinous crime instead of lying forever, like most of them. Her crime was committed while she was on coke/booze- something Bush did a lot of once, but still refuses to admit. Even the Pope and the ...

  • Makes Me Laugh -- Elites With Furrowed Brows AT LAST - -

    So, the FDIC Chairman is a female children's book author from Massachusetts, who started her new job running security for our Nation's bank deposits since 2006? How fortunate for her. I am a Massachusetts/New Hampshire working guy going back to 1990, originally from the Midwest, with some college but no degree, and I have been ''getting ...

  • Re: Why does torture by conservatives shock him?

    thewolf05827: ''...conservatives have never cared much for civil liberties.'' ''The only limitations on government that conservatives want is less regulation on business and lower taxes, both of which disproportionately help the rich, if the average person is helped at all.'' Do you even understand you are posting generalizations? Oh. ...

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

  • N E G L E C T E D.....C O N S T I T U E N C Y..?

    For better or worse, most people vote with their pocket-book. There is a group of people in the USA who are smart, who save their money, and actually want to pay more taxes! ( No, that is NOT a typo.....we DO want to pay more taxes! ) But we can't. Not in the USA. The government won't let us. Now, who the heck am I talking about? Those ...

  • Why I'm an American in Exile...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...

  • Iraq is "Bush's War"

    Iraq is ''Bush's War'' (NOT a ''War Against Terrorism'')... Question: When did Terrorists'' get the ESTABLISHED and REAL foot-hold in Iraq? Related to the ''War Against Saddam''... Although this may have been an issue that may have eventually required continued US Military Action, there WERE & ARE on the other hand, far GREATER dangers to the ...

  • Still waiting for the "false choice"

    For shame, Slate. Not you, Dahlia. Your point, while not precisely new ground, is a useful and worthy comment on how the Administration has abused the definitions on both sides of this question. I (mostly) agree - the true abuse in the Padilla case is the abuse of the categories, the deliberate use of inaccurate designation to game out ...
