Bush Impeachment Defense Memo Leaked, President Expects to Use Idiot Defense

by Don Monkerud

With the first calls for impeachment circulating in Congress and across the country, President George W. Bush and his advisors met in Washington over the weekend to map a defense based on the so-called "idiot defense," sometimes referred to as the "I was out of the loop" method of shifting blame to others.

<snip>


Under this plan, Bush will come clean with the American people and tell them that he didn't have any idea of what was going on; he didn't give orders for spying, doesn't know about where the reports on WMD in Iraq came from, or why FEMA didn't act sooner, or why various unpopular initiatives were put forth by his administration during the past several years

<snip>
Proving that the president knows anything may be impossible. Bush has repeatedly told the media that he doesn't read or watch TV and that his wife, Laura, usually keeps him abreast of Washington's affairs. Her main sources of information is Rush Limbaugh's radio broadcast, "I'm a Big Fat Idiot," and Pat Robertson's TV show, "700 Slights and Arrows." Robertson has come under attack recently for advocating the assassination of Santa Claus and claiming that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's stroke was the result of "getting his fat hand caught in the cookie jar."

Foreign policy experts hope to make a coherent statement about the president's policies that will prove that he knew what was going on in the country. "We've been trying to make sense out of statements the president made during his morning briefings, but so far we're flummoxed," said one advisor. "We're not sure some of the words the president uses exist, and if they do, what they mean."

1. "Don't blame me. I'm an unelected idiot." nt

2. If you use the idiot defense, then your smart, therefore you can't

use the idiot defense.

Remind you of Catch-22?

Your grounded if your crazy, but if you tell the doc you're crazy, then you're not crazy, you just don't want to fly...

3. Either way he should be removed from office

If he ordered the crimes he is guilty.
If he is so damned dumb that he allowed others to give the orders, he should be removed from office for allowing activities to take place.
Stupidity is no excuse Mr. bu$h

4. Why not? Working for him so far.

He has a personal problem,,,,Bad Intelligence!

In EVERY case, "Barriers to Trade" and "Restrictions on Corporations" were created to protect something valuable!

The Democratic Party is a BIG TENT, but there is NO ROOM for those
who advance the agenda of THE RICH (Corporate Owners) at the EXPENSE of LABOR and the POOR.

5. Well, the idiot defense should work very well for him.

For once, he won't be lying.

8. "For once, he won't be lying."

Zing! :rofl:

[madmom]

6. That doesn't fly...how many times has he told us HE'S commander in chief

if he was out of the loop it's just as much his fault for being so stupid as to let them put him out of the loop!

[ixion]

7. yep, that's the thing... in fact, didn't Rummy alter something

so that there is one and only one CiC?

[undeterred]

9. I think the Moran Defense would be more persuasive

but its a close call.
