There is a 60 ft list of Bush scandals!
A progressive named Hugh, started making a list of Bush scandals late last summer. It got distributed in its infancy at the blog firedoglake. People in that community love challenges, so Hugh didn't even have to ask for help. Initially, the list entries were very brief. Most were only long enough so that the people at firedoglake, who are very familiar with Bush's shortcomings, crimes, misdemeanors - and worse - could easily understand the entries.

But Hugh edited each entry by adding enough information so that even a mainstream media reporter would understand what event or action the entry implied or recognized. All of these entries - there are now 281 - are worse than a president getting a hummer from another adult under the Oval Office desk. Most are breaches of the public trust, many violations of Bush's Oath of Office. The rest are crimes and War Crimes.

on Washington Journal this morning.

3. Someone also did this a while back -
I used to go to this one all the time for updates, until he stopped doing it; presumably because reality became too depressing for it to be a joke any longer.

5. anyone else and they would be stuck so far back in a cell that they would have to shoot beans
to them to eat, have to pipe sunshine in. one thing about it when and it is only a matter of when there will be so many charges that could be filed against these crooks to make them not a threat to anyone ever again. its only a matter of time, with each passing day the hole they are digging for themselves is getting deeper and deeper. there is a good day coming

26. it's like wiki
updateable. All new additions are in red. I think it even gets updated every day or two... lord knows there's enough scandal for it to be updated every few seconds.

:(

7. Set in 10-point Helvetica, with no upper or lower page margins, it is about 60 feet long.

8. That is a beautiful thing... Print it everywhere!. . .I think
it ought to be printed in full on linen, or good strong cotton. I'd wear it. I'd drape it everywhere. Curtains, bedsheets, bhurkas,. . . the possibilities are endless.

10. Can we be sure the list is complete? How many Bush scandals? Always one more!
There will always be that nagging sensation that we are forgetting a dozen or two, there just are too many!! And like passengers on a bus, the answer to how many fit is "Always one more."

16. Thank you.
How depressing. I remember when some group (was it MoveOn?) was keeping a list of lies during the first administration and then it got to be too much trouble so they stopped. What a dismal commentary on a presidency.

19. There should be a Bush Library for people to visit
that goes into every single scandal in glorious detail. If we never get any other kind of justice for all the crimes against humanity and the constitution this man has committed, we must make sure that the country never forgets. We should call it the Bushsonian and make it a huge building that will take days to tour.

23. That's your reality. Do you ever get tired of making excuses for the turncoat Dems?
THE reality, Perry, is that politics in America, no matter the party, is controlled by big corporate money. The media wouldn't have to destroy the Democrats. Their own complacency and collaboration with dirty political money would do the trick.

27. And which candidates are doing there jobs and speaking out...
about the laws that have been broken, Bushco or even the CIA for destroying evidence. Why would anyone support and vote for a candidate that isn't even standing up for the people when the law is broken? Something is wrong with us if we support this illegal mess, I Dennis Kucinich has been speaking out but who else has made this a priority in their issues?

All we do is complain about things are but we wont even change the way we vote or the way think about our candidates, why do we pick who we do, what is the issue we decide on?
