Bush vows to 60 Minutes that ‘no matter what Congress wants’ surge is on
Raw Story | January 13, 2007
In an interview set to air on this Sunday’s 60 Minutes, President George W. Bush vows to send an additional 21,500 troops to Iraq “no matter what” the Democratic-controlled Congress tries to do.
“Do you believe as Commander in Chief you have the authority to put the troops in there no matter what the Congress wants to do,” 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley asks Bush in the short clip uploaded to the CBS News web site Friday night.
“I think I’ve got, in this situation, I do, yeah,” Bush said.
“Now I fully understand they will,” Bush continued, “they could try to stop me from doing it, but, uh, I’ve made my decision and we’re going forward.”
Now, I’m no great Constitutionalist; in fact, I’m rather a fan of Lysander Spooner on the issue.
But, a limited government with divided powers is at least preferable to an unlimited one ruled by an autocratic dictator. The Constitution Bush has sworn to uphold clearly says that all appropriations – including for the military – originate in Congress, and that only Congress can declare war. If the President can simply wage undeclared wars and appropriate spending without consent of Congress, is he not a dictator and a traitor to the Constitution?
Bush clearly believes that he can rule by decree, and spend money whether the Congress likes it or not. The new Democrat “opposition” in Congress has ruled out impeachment and the last convention of the Libertarian Party (?) voted it down as well, despite having been proud to be the first party to have officially called for the impeachment of Clinton. Why the double standard?
It’s time for all of us, as individuals and organizations, to stand up together and separately and demand impeachment hearings in Congress. If the Democrats and the LP can’t find the guts to do it, what about Representative
Ron Paul who is now
a candidate for President?

WTF??????? is this???? I am pretty progressive at least where music is concerned, but I am truly baffled by this shit.
Needed to break up a bunch of serious text posts all in a row. I thought it was pretty funny actually.
Also, how can you deal with fucked up heavy shit like martial law except with some extreme absurdity to balance things out?
WTF??????? is this???? actually I think, is more appropriate to the main part of the post.
Michelle..miss seeing you on here….post some stuff, huh?
Been skiing in Wyominig. I had forgotten how good Jackson Hole is. Catching up on news and still jacking with my email problem, but I think I will have something to say later. ;o)
Looking forward to it.
BTW, since you asked about the video, what it was, was a re-interpretation of the lyrics to Slayer’s “Angel of Death” based on what the words almost sound like.
But, hey. If it makes you say WTF? Perhaps it fits in with W’s statement which really makes me say WTF?!
BTW here’s the actual lyrics, for comaprison. Kinda makes me thing of Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, the network of secret prisons in ex-communist nations that Bush is putting people with no phone calls, mail, charges or lawyers, the mass torture-killing every day in Iraq, and the network of concentration camps FEMA has authorized which Halliburton is already building for “emergencies.”
You let a scumbag war crime family steal a couple of presidential elections, stage a Reichstag fire type event and invade and occupy a couple of countries along with torture, secret prisons, domestic wiretapping, rule by decree (see above) and plans to invade yet more countries, and pretty soon you will have this:
