Welcome to IWETHEY!

New No, I don't think so.
So, Nagin - a mayor largely disregarded by the Fed until disaster struck, a disaster that was ill-handled by Municipal, State, AND Federal authorities - FORCED Congress to grant the President the power to suspend the Constitution at any time, for any reason, as he sees fit, without oversight? In the same bill granting him the right to have people tortured? (the same tortures we howled about North Vietnam doing, as a reminder)

No - though that will certainly be used as the excuse, and as a talking point by the right-wing dominated media.

Sure. Blame everybody but the people actually doing the job of gutting the Constitution and removing any protections people have from the Government.

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
 
 
New All I know....
is that Hillary will have a field day with this one when she's President.

(But until she is....Repubs won't have an issue with their ox having this power)
New It sounds from the reading like a response to that.
And likely to be the excuse.

Hopefully we won't have to deal with this but for a couple more months.

New We have years to go.
Bush doesn't need approval from anybody to suspend the Constitution. There is no time limit, there is no limit in scope. Mid-term elections don't affect this.
