President Says DeLay Is Not Guilty of Money Laundering Dec. 15

ANOTHER BUSH* LIE

~snip~ President Bush said yesterday he is confident that former House majority leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) is innocent of money-laundering charges, as he offered strong support for several top Republicans who have been battered by investigations or by rumors of fading clout inside the White House. ~snip~

1. * has no credibility at home or abroad;
Statements like this only deepen the hole and keep this 33% of the U.S. that would believe anything, confident that things are well.

6. Bush has no need for courts
unless he's suing to prevent recounts or suing car rental companies over fender benders...

George W. Bush. In 1999, Bush sued Enterprise Rent-A-Car over a minor fender-bender involving one of his daughters in which no one was hurt. Although his insurance would have covered the repair costs making a lawsuit unnecessary, Bush sought additional money from Enterprise, which had rented a car to someone with a suspended license. In this case, Bush seemed to understand one of the most important functions of civil lawsuits — to deter further wrongdoing. The case settled for $2,000 to $2,500. Burger, Timothy, “Bush sued Enterprise Rent-A-Car over daughter’s fender bender,” Daily News, August 26, 2000; “Bush sued rental agency over fender bender,” Houston Chronicle, August 26, 2000
