Does anyone believe that Bush is a Dictator, and if so.....?
....is he a temporary Dictator or will he find a way to maintain power after 2008? Is this a totally absurd thought or has anyone else thought such a thing? As we know, Bush has made comments about the benefits of being a Dictator. Judging from his total disregard for the law and his disregard for the Congress, is it really impossible that it could happen? Who would stop him?? Or shall we simply reap the whirlwind when he is gone?

18. Ooo! I like those!
I like the second version more, though you could take the text underneath Cheney on the first and add it to the second.

I'd LOVE to have THAT t-shirt! :D

26. I saw a photoshopped version of this


Only with George 41's (George the Smarter) face on JFK and Shrub's face on John John.

Could you make something like that? Or do you know where the original is?

4. Nah, I don't think he's interested in the job to be honest.
Start looking for the Neo-cons to start shilling for an
Heir Apparent. Because, I'm *SURE* they want to keep the
reins. If only to keep their sorry hides out of jail.

But, who?

10. There is I believe a dictatorship that pulls Bush's strings and
any Republican President in the past since Ronald Reagan and they will in the future. I don't believe it's one person but a board of directors somewhere that meets in secret and decides the country's agenda.

We, the people, have to stop them, expose them and dethrone them.

16. For the last two elections,
the Republicans have proved themselves incapable of governing a nation, but extremely capable of winning an election. If anyone thinks that they don't have some strategy up their sleeve for winning in 2008, they haven't been paying attention. They wont use Bush after 2008 because it just MIGHT stir up the electorate enough to wake from their stupor. But stealing another election will go under the radar of most Americans.

"Oligarchy", possibly?

11. I believe he is the figurehead of a dictatorship
that will not leave when he leaves office. I think our dictatorship is pretty much totalitarian now and in control of our laws and media message with a constitution on hold and slowly disappearing with justices and judges in place to insure new interpretations.

19.  If he starts another attack
If they begin an attack on Iran then it is possible bush may remain in as the front man fool .

It's difficult to predict what these criminals will do . They did get away with two stolen elections and this lie to attack Iraq . They are still in office and digging in deeper all the time . if the dems get the house and senate 2006 nov then just maybe they can slow this down and remove some crime figures . But that remains a big if in light of how the elections are privatized .

22. He is the same way all American Presidents are and will be...
Bush is bad. Real real real bad. But, Lincoln, Wilson, McKinley, killed far more people and violated the Constitution with at least as much abandon. And while I believe Bush will leave in 08, it doesn't matter. He has continued to ring the bell of American Imperalism, Control of United Staters, and murder of people from distant lands.

Whomever inherits his power is going to use it...

24. This is their wetdream ...the new world order
Poppy is a key player, Junior is his puppet. Poppy has been the head of the Texas mafia for decades, most of the Bush money has come from war profiteering, drugs, and raiding the national treasury. The entire family has been above the law in all of their illegal activities, but karma's a bitch and I have faith our judiciary system will eventually catch up with them.

27. If there is another largescale domestic terror attack
(genuine or stage-managed), or Bush nukes Iran, then I could see a scenario where he would declare a "national emergency", suspend elections/the Constitution and stay in office using the "crisis" as an excuse. If no attack or preemptive war, then the the Neocons/PNAC Crowd just need to find another front person to replace Bush. They know how to manipulate/steal elections. Their agenda is well known. Jeb or any number of their other politicians would do just fine for the window-trimming.
