The Dems know that every naughty thing that Bush only increases their margin of victory in November of '08. Plus, the cruel fact of the matter isthat they'd actually like to have all those new and dark powers that Bush has gathered unto himself.

Do you really believe that Bush will go quietly and relinquish those powers to a Democrat? IMO We are heading for a full blown Dictatorship.

It is my understanding, as someone above posted, that this would constitute bribery and that bribery for the purpose of influencing the political process is illegal. It may even be illegal to propose such a thing. I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know. It is my understanding that organizing and planning to influence the political process through monetary gifts or donations, whether public or not, and whether well meaning or not, is illegal.
Readers are really into Cheney being president for awhile. Suggestions for Acting President Cheney include
Bomb Iran.
Commute the sentences of those border agents.
Fire Mike Chertoff.
Tell Harry Reid to ... well, you know...
Pardon Scooter.
UPDATE: An e-mail:
Three hours wouldn't be long enough to actually bomb Iran, given the necessary flight time. But ICBM's can be there in about a half-hour.
In addition, I think President Cheney should have a target practice session out by Rose Garden...

I don't really think the Dems want to actually catch Bush and make him answer for what he's done. No matter how you look at this issue, and no matter how you feel about the President's actions, one things remains clear. The Dems just aren't trying that hard to enforce the law. I think they want to get away with the same things he's doing when their President is in office. they know that so long as Bush continues to act up, the voters will keep getting mad, which will help them win in November of '08.

However, the GOP knows this scenario too, and you cannot believe they are not going to just roll-over and take it, wife-beaters they are. So what in your calculations do you think they will do to fight back or forestall this impending catastrophe?

From where I sit, the Republicans are beyond the point of no return. Like it or not, they are headed to the wood shed for a spanking. They can try to steal the election, in which event they would have everything to gain by doing what I've already suggested. Or, they can lose power with dignity and hope to learn their lessons while they're on the outs with the American people.

There is only one possible change that could defeat my dark scarnio. That would be the rise of third party candidates.
