Is Bush above the law?

Letter to the Editor

President Bush is asserting that he is above the law and that he can decide to just up and break the law if he finds it inconvenient. He doesn't need a warrant, he does what he wants. He's saying that a strong president doesn't have to obey the law. If America allows that to stand then we have a constitutional crisis.

War? What War?

Letter to the Editor

President Bush Keeps saying over and over that America is a nation at war but we are in fact not a nation at war. America has never declared war on Iraq. Only Congress can declare war and the last time that happened was when America declared war on Japan in WWII. Iraq isn't a war, it's an illegal invasion based on lies. Bush can't use war as an excuse to break the law. Spying on Americans without a warrant is illegal. Bush admitted he did it and says he's going to keep doing it. The president isn't above the law. Bush should be arrested. It's time for Bush to resign.

Imagine if Clinton decided to just up and break the law. Do you think the press would sit there and let him get a pass? I don't think so. But they are getting paid off by the Pentagon with our tax dollars to keep silent about Bush's criminal activities. That bastard Gonzalles should be locked up too as well as members of congress who knew this was going on, that is, if there really were any who actually knew it!

Bush Should resign

Letter to the Editor

President Bush has finally accepted he made a lot of mistakes going into the war, but he now asks us to trust him to win the war. But can America afford to invest it's trust in a leader who hasn't been trustworthy? America is a nation of laws where we value honesty, trustworthiness, honor, freedom, liberty, and justice. The issue isn't if we want to choose between victory and defeat but if Bush has a plan for victory that will work. Bush has put America in a hole that we can't get out of by going deeper into the hole. We are on the path of defeat and if we want to have victory we need to turn around and go in that direction. America can't do that if our leader is a loser. A week leader puts our nation in jeopardy. I therefore think it's time to ask Bush to resign the presidency so that we can get a leader who can win the war.

I don't need no stinking laws!

Letter to the Editor

"I don't need no stinking laws! I'm the president, I do what I want." This is what Bush is effectively telling America when he decided to authorize using the NSA to spys on Americans without getting authorization from the courts. So I don't understand why Bush wants the Patriot Act renewed because if he really has the powers to authorize spying without law then why bother with laws? Bush now claims that he's above the law. I think someone need to remind Bush that he's not the king.
