"A Few Bad Apples .... " ~ Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Gonzales
Uploaded by THINKFilmNY

Youtube of Alberto Gonzales

In George W Bush's first Inaugural Address he said:
"Much time has passed since Jefferson arrived for his inauguration. The years and changes accumulate. But the themes of this day he would know: our nation's grand story of courage and its simple dream of dignity."

Dignity is not something that describes the United States after Bagram in Afghanistan, Abu_Ghraib in Iraq and Guantanamo in Cuba. (A Growing Afghan Prison Rivals Bleak Guantanamo)

After seeing Alex Gibney's documentary Taxi to the Dark Side today with the free on demand feature, it was clear to me that George W Bush, Richard Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld need to be indicted. It is clear that they are criminals. I knew this before seeing the film, but it is so potent when seeing this documentary film. The three of them, as well as other Bush appointees have broken the U.S. Constitution and the oath they swore to. They have made us the United States citizens amoral bystanders. We have a corrupt government. The world knows it. The United States of America is bankrupt of accountability internationally.

There is no way that the behavior clearly shown in Taxi to the Dark Side wouldn't make the the USA targets of hate. Before the Bush administration, there were other acts done by the USA government that drew distaste and hatred toward the USA, but the Bush-Cheney administration has a case so deservingly merited to be tried in a court of justice somewhere. If not initiated by our apparently morally bankrupt congress, perhaps the International Criminal Court will indict the players. The buck stops at the administration's branch. And Bush and Cheney should not get away with their crimes.

Dennis Kucinich has been calling for Bush's impeachment. And you can sign the petition. Here is the text:

Kucinich Petition

WHEREAS, in his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed abuses of power.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that President George W. Bush has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as President and Commander in Chief, and subversive of constitutional government, to the prejudice of the cause of law and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States and that he be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Personally, I believe Congress has been derelict to the extreme in their duty to oversee the Administration's criminal activity. International law (Geneva Convention) has been broken, as well as national law. I would like to see the Intermational Criminal Court (ICC) look into the crimes done by the Administration. According to the text at this ICC link victims "have the possibility under the Statute to present their views and observations before the Court".

The Book: Impeach the President - The Case Against Bush and Cheney

George W Bush gives a tour of the Oval Office - this is worth a look just for the irony of his attempt to appear....well, I'll leave it to you to decide.

Dick Cheney gives a tour of Vice President office.

George W Bush and Dick Cheney have been in office since January 20, 2001.

Donald Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense overseeing the army, navy, air force, and marines from 2001 to December 2006 for the Bush-Cheney administration.

Intel ops to expand at Bagram prison

By Peter Eisler - USA Today
Posted : Thursday Sep 18, 2008

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon plans to expand intelligence operations at its main prison in Afghanistan, records and interviews with military officials show.

Interrogators and analysts are being sought for a bigger Bagram prison scheduled to open next year. They will be hired to question prisoners and provide intelligence that can be used on the battlefield, according to contract solicitations reviewed by USA Today. The Army also is seeking a “trained Mullah” to conduct Islamic services for detainees and advise U.S. officials on religious issues...

“One thing we have not taken advantage of is just trying to understand what is motivating people to join the insurgency,” he said.

The new $60 million facility will also include more space for detainee religious services, education programs and family visits.

GW BUSH WAS IN MY LITTLE TOWN TODAY

BUSH IN TOWN, BUT OUT OF SIGHT

It's a given:
I love where I live, though its size is small, it has grand opportunities and much beauty. A small seaport called Newport, Rhode Island has history, of course the native north Americans' and of the colonial days. Newport is actually an island called Aquidneck Island by the Indians and the actual Island of Rhode Island on the map. There are only three towns on Aquidneck Island, the south end is Newport, the north end is Portsmouth and the middle is uncreatively called Middletown. I'm a transplant here, living here since I was 24 years old and now I have to admit, I'm way past those years now. Rhode Island is a tiny state...you can get anywhere in this state in an hour basically. Our biggest town is Providence, the capital of Rhode Island. The word "providence" means "God, when conceived omnisciently, directing the universe and the affairs of humankind with wise benevolence". The fact that the city of Providence has such substance and almighty meaning behind the definition of its name is humbling, or at least, should be humbling.

We have the mighty and beautiful tallships gracing our harbor right now. At night, their outlines are beautifully lit up. And PRESIDENT BUSH was here today. But none of us got to see him. The news reported that Airforce One landed on the Navy Base here at 10:30 a.m. He was invited by our Republican Governer Donald Carcieri to come to Rhode Island today. Now there is only one state left that Bush has never visited - Vermont. Rhode Island was taken off that short list today. Our two United States Senators and our two Representatives are all Democrat, and his approval rating here in Rhode Island according to one of the signs at the protest today, is as low as his IQ. Many of the signs were on that order, of say ... "insulting".

President was scheduled to speak at 11:00 a.m. I am a major activist here in RI for stopping genocide, specifically the one in Darfur that is four years and four months old. So I went with my poster

to the sight of other protesters gathered today close to the Navy Base where Mr. Bush spoke about the subject of

TERROR.

Only two of us had signs about Darfur. All of the other signs were of peace, getting out of Iraq,

not getting into Iran, impeaching Bush and or Cheney and so on.

We had around 250 people. Wal-Mart wouldn't let us park in their huge lot. But the Pizza Hut gave us permission. Afterward, I went to thank the manager for allowing us to do so. I think he was surprised that I did this. But it was apparent that he appreciated the "shout out".

Okay, we were pretty confident that President Bush wouldn't want to see us and would not drive by our little protest, but we knew the television cameras would probably come for the show. However, mostly they reported President Bush's speech on TERROR.

The real terror is President Bush and his "non-executive branch", Vice-President Dick Cheney. Did you hear about VP Dick Cheney saying that he isn't fully a member of the executive branch of the government this week? Unbelievable, but he said it.

The support of those who drove by all of our signs was overwhelmingly in support of the protesters. And when my neighbor

and I walked the streets of Newport with our Darfur signs with all of the tourists in town for the tallships, we were very much supported. People asked to take pictures of us and gave us words of thanks.

It's too bad that President Bush chooses to only represents those that he can pidgeon hole as his true supporters. His supporters have given this man license to ruthlessly strip us as a nation of our reputation worldwide with his stupidity. When he "ran" for President he only allowed people into his "town meetings" who supported him. He hand picked his crowds. What kind of democracy is it, that the Presidential candidate will only speak in front of those that he hand picks?

This guy has sold us down a political river and doesn't even care that it's polluted.

I'm not a Bush supporter because I don't agree with anything that he has done as President.

When what’s wrong is pretended to be right, we are not facing the truth. That is a problem. And that is where we are as a nation of wrongs with the current Administration.

Iraq should not have been invaded. And “not leaving” Iraq will never make that fact right, Mr. President.

IMPEACHABLE ACTS - WARNING - WILL BE OFFENSIVE TO BUSH ADMIRERS

IMPEACHABLE ACTS

I'm sorry if this offends you, but it is pretty much just how I feel.

<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<:<

IMPEACHABLE ACTS – CONTEMPT OF CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS, THE GENEVA CONVENTION, POLITICAL LIES, PERSONAL INDISCRETIONS

I didn’t vote for George Bush for President. I am alarmed by what he has done to our federal deficit, our constitutional rights, our citizens affected by hurricane Katrina, the forgotten U.S. citizens, the very young, the teens, the foster children of our country, the poor and neglected AND what major damage he and his dismal “Mr. Decider” decisions have done to the United States foreign reputation around the planet Earth. And yet, there are people in the U.S.A. who think he is a wonderful President. I have no idea how any one can believe that. But there are those who do. And my family members belong to that group. I just don’t understand the ignorance. I can’t say what I really think of him because taken out of context it would be unwise for me to write here. But having just been introduced to Youtube in the last couple of months, I have had my world broadened. I just found the YouTube included below, even though it is not a new song by Neil Young, it is new to my world. I warn you if you like George Bush, you won’t want to hear what this song has to say. I can’t argue with what the song says, because I believe it is truthful. Something that has not been a part of President George Bush’s intelligentsia. This President makes me cringe and embarrassed. Unfortunately when I went to Europe in November 2005, the treatment that I received as an American was 180 degrees different from all of my previous trips to Europe. I think that matters. I think it matters what others think of us. The fall of Rome didn’t happen overnight, but the fall of the U.S.A. is on its way unless we can wake up to how to command “real” power. It is not by force that we gain and maintain power. But “force” has been the Cowboy’s language since he took office.

Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) stood his ground and joined the twenty-or-so other Republicans that have decided to vote with the House Democrats in favor of a non-binding Iraq resolution that condemns President Bush's troop surge.

Speaking of Bush, Congressman Paul was very straight-forward in his displeasure for Bush's "demented philosophy of conquest." Here is a portion of his floor speech:

RON PAUL: "In recent decades, our policies have been driven by neoconservative empire radicalism; profiteering in the military industrial complex; misplaced do-good internationalism; mercantilistic notions regarding the need to control natural resources; and blind loyalty to various governments in the Middle East."

REP. RON PAUL on REAL TIME W BILL MAHER 3-30-07

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xo6KIusCBoU

I find Representative Paul (R) off my mark of someone to support for President, but at least he uses his brain about what he’s trying to express. I give him that. But I think we are due to have a democrat in the Whitehouse to balance out the stuff we've had to endure as a nation and the world with the 8 year regime of the Bush mind. And remember the two Bush Presidents' choices for Vice-President. Poor choices, both of them. I can't cope with 4 more years of republican smallness. We need to think of the soul of our nation and the global ramifications of our leadership, or what shreds are left of it.

Some of the things that this President has as his legacy include the Patriot Act, dismissing the adherence to The Geneva Convention and the undermining of human decency through lacking the manifestation of human and otherwise United States’ principles and Constitution at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib. This President is proof of the Peter Principle.
