Pathetic, simply, absurdly pathetic.I just signed a petition,

sent to me by Senator Leahy, to exhort bush as to the impropriety of 750 signing statements.
How pathetic is it that a powerful member of the U S senate, of long standing, has to send out appeals to the general public to drum up support against the illegal activities of the fake president and vp?
Admittedly, the ultimate power of the government derives from the people but this is ridiculous!
This filthy, bug-ridden defunct congress hasn't even the power and standing (or moral fiber) to demand an accounting from on obvious criminal junta, illegally occupying the white house.
I think I'm gonna be physically, violently ill!

URKG!

2. Do you have a link to the petition?

I agree with everything you said. However, if public support is what is needed on this, then that's what they're going to get from me. I'd like to sign this petition. Thanks.

10. I love people at DU

When I tried posting the same type of link the first time, it filled in personal info too. I don't recall the poster who put me promptly back into anonymity, but it is so cool that we watch each other's backs over stuff like this.

I just want to give you all a great big hug.

:grouphug:

And then get a beer.

9. it is! we live in the banana republic of the bushes-and

our elected representatives are holding on to their faux job of 'appearing' as if actual Constitutional government is taking place everyday-it's not and bush IS the dictator.
