"The majority of people now, try not to be labeled. -LA"
YES I am one of those, and I try not to do it to others because I am a member of the human race FIRST, above all else.
You will never get rid of LABELS. But you can change how you react to them. See them for what they are, just a stereotype, not the real thing, but a token for it.

Our leaders treat us as children. They think that we cannot handle a serious dialogue about the future of our republic, about what it will be and how it will operate.
And so, we begin to act like children. We follow other interests. We decide to be entertained rather than to be citizens. - John Nichols

We have an unusual affair of president/vice-president, where the vice-president is de facto president most of the time.
And that's why most of the people recognize that these decisions, especially when it comes to overreaching with executive power, are the product of Dick Cheney and his aide, David Addington, not George Bush and Alberto Gonzalez or Harriet Miers, who don't have the cerebral capacity to think of these devilish ideas. - Bruce Fein

Americans understand that if a president sins against the Constitution and does damage to the republic, the people have a right in an organic process to demand of their House of Representatives, the branch of government closest to the people, that it act to remove that president. And I think that sentiment is afoot in the land. - John Nichols

When I go out across America, what I hear is something that's really very refreshing and very hopeful about this country. An awfully lot of Americans understand what Thomas Jefferson understood. And that is that the election of a president does not make him a king for four years. - John Nichols

Let's be clear. If we had a president who was seeking to inspire us to take seriously the issues that are in play and to bring all the government together, he'd be consulting with Congress. - John Nichols

I think that the war on terror, as defined by President Bush, is PERPETUAL WAR.
And I think that he has acted precisely as Madison feared. He has taken powers unto himself that were never intended to be in the executive. - John Nichols

Bush has claimed authority to say he can kidnap people, throw them into dungeons abroad, dump them out into Siberia without any political or legal accountability.
These are standards that are totally anathema to a democratic society devoted to the rule of law. - Bruce Fein

Bush is seeking to cripple CHECKS and BALANCES and the authority of Congress and the judiciary to superintend his assertions of power.
Bush has claimed the authority to tell Congress they don't have any right to know what he's doing with relation to spying on American citizens, using that information in any way that he wants, in contradiction to a federal statute called the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. - Bruce Fein

Bruce Fein wrote the first article of impeachment against President Clinton. He did so because PERJURY is a legal crime. And he believed no one is above the law.
Bruce Fein served in the Justice Department during the Reagan administration and as general counsel of the Federal Communications Commission. He has been affiliated with conservative think tanks such as the American Enterprise Institute and the Heritage Foundation and now writes a weekly column for the Washington Times and Politico.com.

When I see "more is better", my mind challenges that idea by producing a stream of images that point to situations where that isn't true. It's automatic.
Of course, I can ignore those images. I have free will.

Perhaps "free choice" would be a more accurate term than "free will". At any moment we can choose which path to take. But we can't do whatever we want. We can't walk on water.

My world literature professor asked our class "Who is a Presbyterian"? Some raised their hands, and he told them "Get out of this class. Your grade has already been determined."
But a fellow answered, "It's predetermined that I'm going to stay."

I was raised as a Presbyterian. My grandfather was a Presbyterian minister. But it wasn't until I got to college that I learned that Presbyterians believe in predestination.

Mike Gravel was last because he said he was "for nuclear fusion - uh I mean fission - uh no, fusion."
What confusion. That was sad, Mike.
Nuclear FISSION (spliting apart) is what we have today that produces waste that will poison the Earth for millions of years.
Nuclear FUSION (join together) doesn't exist yet ... a physicist's dream.

"Your answer that you did not discuss these matters with the president and, to the best of your knowledge, he was not involved, is going to make some nervous at the White House. It seriously undercuts his claim of EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE if he was NOT involved."

Thanks for the link karen.
It is odd that Bush is no longer going through the motions to pretend he cares about the law. Even if Harriet Miers did testify, she would not answer any questions, claiming executive privilege. And if she were found in contempt, Bush would pardon her.

Bush's top spokesman, Tony Snow, appeared resigned to the fact that the Iraqi parliament is going to take August off, even though they have just 8 weeks to show PROGRESS on the benchmarks designated by the United States.
But can you blame them? I mean how HOT will it be in Iraq in August?

Two top Republicans, Warner and Lugar, say Bush must draft a plan for U.S. troops that would keep them from "policing the civil strife or sectarian violence in Iraq" and focus them instead on protecting Iraq's borders, targeting terrorists and defending U.S. assets.
TRANSLATION: Give up on "Iraq as a shining new democracy" and focus on getting the oil (aka U.S. assets).
It is still PLAN A ... steal Iraqi oil.
