Hello...
Some where in here somebody brough up the subject of " War Crimes "
as If George Bush was actually guilty of one.
I'd suggest that you spend a few hours looking into the history of
America's... Greatest President... Lincoln... you may be surprised.
If Lincoln can be considered a " great " president... then George
Bush isn't getting the credit that he deserves !!!!
The Lincoln Legacy.....
He suspended the writ of habeas corpus without the consent of Congress (as required by the Constitution).
He illegally shut down and confiscated the printing presses of dozens of newspapers that had spoken out against him.
He re-instated and summarily promoted an Army officer who had been court martialed and cashiered by the US Army for war crimes.
He even had an arrest warrant issued for the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court because said justice refused to back his illegal actions.
Chief Justice Roger B Taney ruled that Lincolns actions were illegal, criminal and unconstitutional.
He invaded the South without the consent of Congress as required by the Constitution.
He blockaded Southern ports without a delclaration of war, as required by the Constitution.
He imprisoned without trial, hundreds of newspaper editors and owners and censored all newspaper and telegraph communication.
He created two new states without the consent of the citizens of those states in order to artificially inflate the Republican Partys electoral vote.
He ordered Federal troops to interfere with Northern elections to assure his Parties victories.
He confiscated private property, including firearms, in violation of the Second Amendment; and effectively gutted the Tenth and Ninth Amendments as well.
He had his Generals attack US cities full of women and children and burn them to the ground.
So... is George any more evil ...that " honest Abe " ?
