Bush is our EMPLOYEE
It is important that everyone be aware of this. In a democracy, the people are not royal subjects or servants or "focus groups," they are the president's employers! Some people praise Bush for acting from his conscience rather than following the will of the American people. That's not how it works. Just like in any job, either he does what We the People want or he gets shit-canned. Conservatives seem to think the president should be immune to criticism and that we all need to follow him to the ends of the Earth because "we're at war." No, he is our subordinate and it's high time he remembered that.

2. While I agree with you,
He has not done what we the people want, and he still hasn't been shit-canned.

6. One BIG problem. THIS is NO LONGER a democracy..........
Edited on Tue Sep-25-07 01:38 PM by Double T
and the litmus test to prove it: We the People's wishes and desires no longer matter to our elected officials. Our current form of government in the US is a plutocratic corporatocracy.

7. Quaint but unfortunately outdated
and no longer operational like our Constitution and our Democracy. Bush and his thugs have stripped and emasculated everything and all the institutions we used to believe in and count on. None of what we learned in civics class applies anymore.

9. I have been saying forever
that I wish one of the reporters would stand up at a press conference and say, "Look here Mr PResident, you work for ME and the American People and WE demand you answer our questions." Unfortunately, it would be the last time this reporter would be at a press conference, but it sure would be nice to see and hear happen.

14. it would be wonderful if someone did challenge this raisin brain.
how about supporting the American people and this country for a change, it would be really refreshing instead of our media just thinking about the dollar, but even the dollar is sinking.

10. Conservatives seem to think the president should be immune to criticism
I disagree. They had/have no problem digging into Clinton or Carter any chance they get. Often for made up reasons. Conservatives think other conservatives should be immune from criticism period. These are people the want to be called ditto heads and Rush is right shirts. These are intellectually lazy people that want to be told what to do, when to do it and that they were right for having followed so long as the leader where's the right Jersey.

16. No, he's not...he's a fucking rovarian-
carlyle, candidate who only answers to the strings of his masters and more bananas.

We had a coup in this country in 2000 with the help of the cmw, 5 supreme court justiceassholes, katerine harris, jebbush, teresa laporre, and fucking bad Planets(sorry Planets but you were BAD).

17. Tell that to Congress
They are the only ones who can remind him of that through impeachment proceedings.

It doesn't matter if you or I know that he works for us. He doesn't give a shit about what you or I think. Now, Congress is a different story and so far, they don't have the balls to question him on anything he says or does.
