I'm having a real bad feeling that something rotten may be in store for this country.
Our President has spent the better part of his legacy trying to shore up the powers of the White House and thumb his nose at the Constitution, Congress, the "press" and just about anyone who would not agree with his schemes.
It all begins with the debacle in Florida that got him "elected", his choice of Cheney to be his #2 (I honestly feel that this man is the personification of evil and his demon daughter Dana Perino), 9/11 which would give him the ability to quietly begin the undermining of the Constitution in the name of 'national security", and the bald faced lies leading up to the invasion of Iraq.
This administration has gone out their way to piss off just about everybody throughout the world. We are constantly bombarded with scary stories about how the terrorists are out to get us and unless you give us the power to deal with these threats you will all die in a mushroom cloud. We need to tap your phones and read your emails in case some terrorists dial the wrong number.
We've all heard the stories about internment camps for us radicals and other such theories. Even with all the information we share on this site I feel that we would be really shocked if we knew about everything that these people were doing.
Now we are being fed the news that Iran is about to nuke us and the great red bear is starting to wake up.
My fear, and believe me, given the track record of what I believe this administration is capable of, is that Bush will generate enough panic, either just before or more likely just after the election, that he will have to declare a state of national emergency and because of the magnitude of the threat it will be in the country's best interest to impose martial law and retain him as President until the danger has passed. Of course the danger will not pass and we will finally find ourselves in the dictatorship that these people have been planning all along.
Oh, and have a nice day

Hello there, Ive talked about this topic also, and your dead right i think. I think that there will be a major war before the election and bush will hold his presidency, this is my view, and each day that goes by with the russia thing, i have a bad feeling we're right.

You know, I have given it a bit of thought, and in regards to an earlier thread about what it would take for the american people to wake up, I believe that MR. Bush trying to pull this kind of stunt is probably the scenario that it would take.

Can you imagine the outrage from the people if the Bush Regime tried something like that?

Yes, there would probably be civil war i think.. I wouldnt put it past him though, he is surely a snake in the grass.

you can count on a new administration in January... Nothing going to circumvent the constitution regarding a presidential term in office.

Im sorry, im not counting on anything.. What happends, happends. The constitution dosent excist anymore.

I don't agree with this premise. I know that there is a general fear verging on paranoia about Bush and his minions but I think that he wants out of office as much as many others want him out of office.

The election will occur in November and Mr Bush will be gone in Jan 09

And i hope your right my friend, the next administration will be no better though, there all the same..

I can't help but think about a segment of the Daily Show where John Stewart pointed out that between all his travels and his many vacations that "Mr." Bush really doesn't like being in the White House very much. Maybe you're right and he can't wait to leave town for good!

I agree with you to a certain extent. But Obama isn't one of "the good ole boys" like Bush and sell out Cheney are. I don't think Obama will fold so easy. He has a strong background and I don't think his conscience will allow him to be bullied into the shadow government's agenda so easily.

Like I said before, Obama will slow down their momentum which they don't want to happen.

O come on. He's just a normal guy like you and me. He was simply the gull of an old and worn, conservative vision.

You know what I want from the new President? Complete disclosure about UFOs I heard a rumor once on Coast to Coast that Hillary was the best bet to do it. It actually was the only reason I had considered voting for her.
If anyone will buck the status quo on this subject. it's Obama. Now that would shake things up.
