Should Bush be required to take "Ethics Training" like the troops?

Edited on Thu Jun-01-06 03:26 PM by Philosoraptor

Why force soldiers to take ridiculous "ethics training" when their commander in chief has no ethics?

1. No, because they'd just give him his 'gentleman's C' and be done with it.

3. Might be a good idea. He obviously got no ethics training

while he was growing up.

4. Didn't he already attend one of Harriet Miers' sessions he ordered for

his staff last fall?

A senior aide said Bush decided to mandate the ethics course during private meetings last weekend with Chief of Staff Andrew H. Card Jr. and counsel Harriet Miers. Miers's office will conduct the ethics briefings.

7. "Ethics training" for Republicans is like vegetarian cooking for sharks.

It's a band-aid on a gunshot wound.

9. No sir. Not "ethics training" for Bush.

"License Plate Press Operator Training" is more like what he NEEDS to take.

11. Ummmm...NO

This man is our president. He is the decider. He should be respected and revered. Obviously, to become president he had to work hard his entire life, follow a strict code of ethics and hold himself to a higher moral code than normal citizens or even soldiers for that matter.

Why do you hate Amurka? :P
