"It's exciting; I don't know whether I'm going to win or not. I think I am. I do know I'm ready for the job. And, if not, that's just the way it goes." - George W. Bush quotes (American 43rd US President since 2001. b.1946) =
An election is coming. Universal peace is declared and the foxes have a sincere interest in prolonging the lives of the poultry. ~T.S. Eliot =
How come we choose from just two people to run for president and 50 for Miss America? ~Author Unknown =
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour =
Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich, by promising to protect each from the other. ~Oscar Ameringer US Above The Law What About Syria's and Pakistan's Sovereignty? By Jacob G. Hornberger Iif the Iraqi regime fails to sign an agreement by the December 31 deadline, that's not going to stop Bush from employing his army any way he wants. That's what he's doing with Syria and Pakistan, and that's what he will continue doing with Iraq. And it will all be legal, agreement or no agreement, because in Bush's mind whatever the U.S. government does is automatically legal.
