He makes my case for me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't one of our rights as Americans the ability to disagree with those who *we* have allowed to govern us? It feels as though this Administration in particular is more self-serving than others, and has repeatedly disregarded the governed in its pursuit of whatever it sees as important. Aren't they in office to serve US? Are all the polls lying when they report Bush's low ratings?

Government "of the people, by the people, and for the people"? It hasn't felt like that in a long time.

Lawmage, you have spoken of revolution several times before in this public forum, and several times I have asked you how to do this, only to be ignored. For whatever it's worth, I am a pacifist, but that doesn't make me a weakling or a coward, nor does it mean that I am not angered by present circumstances.

I have always admired your tenacity and loyalty to the Constitution, Law; you serve this country, and for that I commend you. Then if you honestly give a shit about Truth, you need to listen to those whom you serve. Perhaps their "truth" might be a shade different than yours, but truth nonetheless.

Will history vindicate Bush, Cheney, Addington, Yoo and Gonzales?

Vindicate them? Do you mean will they be vindicated of trashing the constitution, trampling our rights and violating the law?

No, history will not vindicate them, it will in fact eventually indict them (not necessarily legally), presuming all of the administration's records aren't shredded. And maybe even then.

I think there is enough evidence against Bush, Cheney et al, which has been kept from the shredder to allow history to make its indictments.
