Supreme Court Rejects Bush Dictatorship - And So Do We!

Last week, the Supreme Court ruled in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld that Congress never authorized the Bush Administration to ignore existing laws and treaties in pursuing those responsible for the 9-11 attacks. That means Bush's defiance of those laws and treaties is illegal, so he and his top officials could be charged with war crimes - and impeached.

Let's tell our Representatives once again to impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney:

*preening* what scares me, is the idiocy seems to write itself and nobody on the right notices.

i mean, c'mon! he's writing a book? total bullshit! apart from the historic '7 frozen moments w/the pet goat') i think we've seen him once w/a book under his arm (he was dressed as Truman Capote) and that shit didn't last long...he was supposedly reading a book about the history of salt as well (like i believed he actually read 2 consecutive pages before passing out).
