<b>I'm amazed at about half the adults in the country. Where the f*ck is the
anger, and the outrage? Does anyone read and make the effort it takes to
stay informed. It's gotta be a commitment at least equivalent to a part time
job. We're talking about our country.....too many openly criminal presidents,
and.....with the exception of Johnson, in terms of working to subvert their
oaths to defend the constitution, all since Nixon have been of the Repub party.
This thread is about uninformed mush, considering what's going on !</b>
I cannot imagine living without questioning and holding those in authority accountable.
How do you do it ? You mentioned the "law" and the "rules". You really believe that any of the Bush bros. or Poppy have any respect for the law or are restrained by it ?
Even after four years....it still smells....similar to the way the recently discredited 2004
Florida "felon voter purge list" smells (whoops, after CNN sued to get the
courts to open the secret new 2004 voter purge list for public scrutiny, it was discovered that 2000+ names on the list were of voters who had applied for and received clemency from Gov. Jeb Bush, and.....after Jeb and his Secretary of State both swore that the list intended to prevent up to 48,000 people from voting, was rechecked to insure accuracy, but had to be kept secret to "protect privacy" CNN sucessfully persuaded a state court judge to order disclosure it was discovered by the the Sarasota Herald Tribune that the 2004 purge list HAD ALMOST NO HISPANIC NAMES ON IT, explained by Jeb Bushco when nailed about the omission ---Fla. Hispanics tend to vote Republican -as a "database error"), and the way the 2000 Florida 65,000 names voter purge list smelled....since only seven states do not automatically restore voting rights to felons who complete their sentences, and the accuracy of that list was called into question, and now because Florida recently was found to have neglected to give a notice, required by law, to 125,000 inmates, since at least 1993, informing them at the time of their release, how to apply to the governor for clemency in order to restore their right to vote. Bush "won Florida" by 537 VOTES.......

"Berg said (Jeb) Bush and the clemency board are empowered to repeal the rule and automatically restore voting rights to felons, which former Gov. Reubin Askew and the Cabinet did for a group in 1975."</a>
<b>The Reagan/Bush '41 Supreme Court 5 were certainly acting like the "activist
judges" that Repubs constantly disavow when they invented the unprecedented
"Gore Exception" to "install" the current ROTUS in the White House....have you
read it???? Add the machinations of Jeb and his current and previous Secretary
of State, and their now discredited felon purge lists, and they have as much
credibility and legitmacy as Janet Jackson's "wardrobe accident". Wake up !!!
A coup took place in Dec., 2000, and Jeb was brazen (and stupid) enough to try
to pull the same shitty tactic in 2004, relying on excuses to keep the new list secret.</b><br>

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."</a> - Thomas Jefferson 1787
