Did anyone notice during the Wackidents speech today?

that when the Wackident was going through his usual traitorous swill that when the press was asking questions concerning the investigation of Scooter Libby that not only was the Wackident dodging questions left and right, but he looked really nervous? He was squirming, squinting, looking around, giving a very nervious smile and even studdered a couple of times. He looked like he was trying to end that conference and get out of there as quickly as possible. He looked like he really didn't want to be there.

I seriously thought he was going to have a nervous breakdown. I honestly thought any minute now he was going to scream, Dick Cheney made me do it. :lol:

Only a matter of time before this guy goes off the deep end. I was so hoping some medidiot had the guts to ask him "So Bush, did you do it"? He might actually be dumb enough to answer yes. :lol:

Oh no, dman--I MISSED it! I would have LOVED to have seen him SQUIRM! Did you just notice on the news that they are rioting like hell over there. They are burning paper American flags and it looks like a LOT of things are burning. I think they don't care too much for the Wackident of our country, huh?

I will be watching the news to see if they replay his speech!!!

I turn the tv everytime he comes on. He tends to make me gag!

I'm afraid I do the exact same thing, had_enuf. I guess we might be missing some really good "Bush Bashing Points"!!

I don't know if this is true or if it isn't true and the site I read it on is suspect to me in their way-out-there stories but I read recently that the President is drinking again and that is what is causing some of his odd behavior.

I have heard the SAME thing too.

This morning on our local news (I'm in west TX) there was a segment about how the Republicans are distancing themselves from the President for the sake of their future political careers. I saw that trend months ago.
There are a lot of folks angry about a lot of different things at this point and it all rolls back onto the government. They have no way to deny that they could have done something and didn't. Especially with illegal immigration but with so many other things as well. What a shame. They had a chance to do something and blew it.

In all honesty, I don't really believe in bashing the President or the Presidency. After all, he is supposed to be the leader of the greatest country on earth. But I can't say I'm not bitterly dissappointed not just with him but with the Republican majority House and Senate.

I fault the members of Congress for distancing themselves from the President just because he's a sinking ship. I won't vote for ANYONE who EVER sucked up to him when he was riding high because I saw him for what he was then and they should have too. So, just distancing themselves from him NOW in order to save their own hides just won't wash with me.

Oh, oh oh! I didn't say I was going to SUPPORT any of those senators. I just said I see why they would distance themselves from him. But I still am not going to start trashing our entire system from stem to stern. Seen a better one? We just have to work together at the polls to get our system back on track.

And, INHO, that would be to get rid of the whole bunch and start from scratch. There's nothing wrong with the SYSTEM. It's the people we, the People, have elected that are the problem.

Bootsie, I coudln't agree with you more. They changed the rules in the middle of the game on us and they have done that repeatedly for a good number to years now. There is a site http://www.America1First.org that is advocating the "Incumbent Removal Act of 2006." I agree with the sentiment that it's time to clean house and start all over. We can't be any worse off with a bunch of rookies with good ideas than we are with the den of thieves we have now.

Does that EVER sound like a winner!!! I couldn't agree with you more about them changing the rules. It seems like, somewhere along the way, they have all sold out to special interest groups rather than concerning themselves with the people who elected them. INCUMBENT REMOVAL ACT!!!!

See, I'm thinking that we should all just pick a day or a couple weeks' time frame and everyone who is registered either a democrat or republican should go change their party to Independent, Constitutionalist, Centrist or something. That would send a message that they CAN'T ignore. When all of a sudden they have no voter base to rely on, they will see the great big foot falling down on them.

I really think that's just a SUPERB IDEA, JUNIUS!! Good thinking. Maybe we can round up enough support. Gosh--wouldn't it be GREAT if we could get NumbersUSA or FAIR interested in doing that too?? That would reach a HUGE number of people.

OH JUNIUS--THAT is a SUPERB IDEA!!

:D

I have been doing a bit of research and I can't for the life of me figure out how you change parties. You can change your name or your address but I don't see one word about political affiliation.

I dug out my voter registration card. There is nothing on it that says what party I registered with. I know that if I was given a choice I would have said Republican because that is what I've done for umpteen years now. I looked at information for several different states. I still can't find anything.

I found out that in all the states I checked that there is a time limit to file for registration, meaning you can't do it the day before the election--it has to be a month or two in most cases. That is OK.

But I still have to find out HOW to do it before picking a date and sending the word around. Anyone have any ideas?

I understand it's different in different states. I just heard that, in Virginia, they don't declare a party affiliation when they register. Correct me if I'm wrong, Virginians. In North Carolina, you can just go to the Board of Elections and tell them you want to change your party affiliation. And, my voter registration card DOES have Unaffiliated on it. Call your local Board of Elections or whatever the Texas equivalent is and ask. I guess we are going to have to leave it to each individual to check in their own states and find out how each state handles that.

I think you are right. Bootsie, but if we can warn them ahead of time what possibliities exist, it will be helpful. I have found that people are less likely to act if they have to scale their own obstacles. Know what I mean?

You're right. You almost have to do all of the legwork for them. All I can speak for is the way it would be done in North Carolina.
