Bush didn’t have much fight in him either, if you recall. But the Swiftboat Vets for Truth did. They hated Kerry.

Maybe McCain and Bush want to play by Queensbury Rules, but I don’t think the entire executive branch is going to roll over when they hear about this.

Leaks will come out. Sandy Berger for example. Anything that undermines the DNC. And it’s too late for Obmama to ‘change his mind’ about investigating Bush. No one will believe him, and Biden had said the same thing.

Isn’t there precedent that basically says that the President can’t be prosecuted for doing his job?

What about the World Court? If Obama gets to appoint two justices to the SCOTUS, guess what? World Court and UN treaties will trump the Bill of Rights. And do you think the UN would allow us to skip free from perceieved war crimes?

The good news is that the executive branch, I think, will begin leaking. I don’t think Bush can stop them. He’s been playing all kinds of DNC coverups close to the vest. But they aren’t all going to take it sitting down. Their loyalty toward President Bush will not allow them to follow the ‘new tone’ any longer.

A president cannot be prosecuted in matters of impeachment. That can be interpreted in a host of ways. Guess how the rats will interpret it?

And then there’s the world court. Constitutional law professors have been brainwashing their classes for decades that treaties trump the bill of rights. That can also be interpreted different ways. Once BO justices take over the SCOTUS, we could fall under UN and World Court authority.

That’s one reason why victory is the only option in this race. Now, I think, the executive branch will realize how true that is and start bucking the new tone regardless of what Bush tells them.

“the sandy bergers are hoarding their secrets.”

The Sloppy Sock buglar can’t hoard the eyes of those who saw him.

"...but he also tread carefully on the issue, in line with his reputation for seeking to bridge the partisan divide realizing that is base is comprised of rabid 9/11-truthers with BDS."

Fixed!
