Bush appoint Bolton, bypassing the senate, this is basically his way of saying to the senate "fuck you, I'll appoint whoever I want".

This is bad. Very bad.

Tell that to the fuckers who voted for him.

You are a traitor ... or a terrorist...

You are either with him or a thug terrorist scum bag....

Hail Bush !

Cronyism (sp?) at it's best.

Yeah it's awesome.

That's interesting.... Clinton only did this 140 times during his term..... I guess that he is the original Nazi huh?


I mean, no offense, but how old are you people? This happens ALL THE TIME> You guys are such suckers for the media.

CLINTON DID IT 140 TIMES FOR GOD'S SAKE.

IT'S NO BIG DEAL. Don't get fooled by the hype

:helpme

So you are OK with that ?

Worry about your own country. You'll be under muslim law in 50 years.

It is a very common practice. It's certainly isn't one of my favorites, but I don't think that it is a sign of a dictatorship.

In fact, there are limits placed for just such an eventuality that limit his time in office to the next congressional election....so he will be there less than two years.

It's just like the stem cell issue. People somehow think that Bush has made it illegal to do the research, when in fact there are NO federal laws forbidding it, and in fact this is the first administration to fund it AT ALL.

He has placed limits on federal FUNDING of embryonic stem cell research, but there is full funding for adult stem cell research, and there is NO restriction on private embryonic stem cell research.

When you listen to the media hype, however, it seems as if he has forbidden it altogether. People just don't seem to place close attention..... YOU must agree with me on that Directfiesta

For all the retards who don't know anything about history, A Look at Presidential Recess Appointments .

...President Bush: 106 recess appointments, including Bolton, mostly to minor posts.
President Clinton: 140 recess appointments over two terms.
Now shut the fuck up and go back to work :2 cents:

true.. but also tell it to the fuckers who don't bother to go vote in first place

On the appointment, it is in fact pretty common ... Reagan did a bit over 240 of them ... I just think that it is fucked up, and for a country claimning to be a model of " democracy " and to " spread " it, it doesn't look good. The other point is that the US relationship with the UN and the member countries are not at the best ... This will not help.

Stem cells: I am not really familiar with the issue, so I will STFU :winkwink:


Pussyman: ain't google fantastic!!!

cnn, not google :2 cents:

Actually, I wasn't looking for any sort of agreement on the issue per se, but merely on the fact that most people get caught up in the hype from the media and don't bother to get all the facts or real perspective on the issue being hyped.

Recess appointments are very common and hardly signal the end of the Republic. Bolton would have easily been approved by the Senate if the Democrats had not filibustered his nomination and not allowed a vote. Both are inside the beltway hardball and part of the system. Hardly earth shattering news in any way. :2 cents:

I don't have a problem with a recess appointments.

It's John Bolton here that is the problem.

It's not about who is best for the job. It's about whos tongue can stick further up the asshole.

Reminds me of old times.

Doing it on the first work day following their recess speaks volumes...

its not good at all

No one is concerned when Bush says he be fine with a dictatorship as long as he was the dictator? LOL

Na, it's Michael Bolton that's the problem. :1orglaugh

Bush STOLE the election in Ohio and elsewhere
 

I still don't know why people think he won. Remember, the results were challenged! Since Kerry is a fellow Bonesman, the whole election was like wrestling.

And for those of you who don't know, wrestling is fake!

Oh man, just hearing his voice literally makes me nauseaus :Oh crap

Yes,


Michael Bolton = bad
John Bolton = Very Bad

Does anyone here know any good person with the name Bolton?

Well, there was Judy Bolton, but alas she was fictional :upsidedow

Bush is really out of his mind. Still can't believe he was re-elected.

Don't worry it's not a dictatorship yet

You've still gotta wait until BIll Clinton is the Head of hte UN... Hillary is president... and Jeb Bush is in control of the north american free trade zone

Oops I almost forgot to mention the WMD attack that suspends the constitution indefinately

Ya, King Clinton did over 140 recess appointments, both parties do it....

Wow, possible.

At least he made the riht choice this time. I'm sure people at the senate would be happy enoubgh.
