The President is the Commander in Chief and their only power is the purse. Since there is no will in the Congress nor with the nation as a whole to defund our loyal troops, Congress cries there is nothing they can do. If our 'commander in chief' refuses the wisdom and direction of the majority of the nation AND his military advisers than he has failed in his most important Consitutional duty. For quite some time, we have heard among the pundits that impeachment is a political process. Well, perhaps it is time for a political solution to this issue. Congress DOES have the ultimate power over the President in this country, and they should begin to stir that pot. Perhaps that would make the 'Decider' listen to reason. - a guest Sat, 27 Jan 2007 18:15:18 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/799-jim-webbs-barnburner.html#comment-981 Iran has already been targeted by this Bush administration. The critics don’t matter. There is simply no way to remove Bush from office now. Non binding referendums don’t count for anything. Temporary heros are great, But they don’t speak of any real solutions to the Iraq war. It is easy to attack Bush. He’s obviously not very bright. Does this temporary hero have a plan ? We all seem to get our hopes up for change. But there is simply no way to stop Bush from invading Iran , escalating the [u]war for profit and his own personal gain.[/u] As discomforting as it may seem, George H.W. Bush, earned a profit through Carlyle group, off of The 9/11 attacks. When Bush leaves office, he is hoping to inherit all of his father’s money. THAT’S WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT. There is very little the congress or the people can do about it. by Blaqfather@yahoo.com - a guest Sat, 27 Jan 2007 15:17:12 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/799-jim-webbs-barnburner.html#comment-960 A great speech by Webb, and one which I hope will stuff some spine back into the self-doubting, apologizing for themselves, Democrats. Time to take the fight directly to the President and challenge his authority to do the things he has always presumed he has the right to do. As Webb says, the branches of government are coequal. We don't have a monarchy and he's not about to support one. Now if only the Dems and outraged Republicans who worry about the imbalance of power and incompetence of this administration are ruining our country can get behind Webb and put a stop to Bush's nuttiness. - a guest Fri, 26 Jan 2007 17:47:59 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/799-jim-webbs-barnburner.html#comment-953 Yes, I am also a Vietnam Veteran. Now disabled because of Vietnam I am very dedicated to our present and future successes at home and gobal. I feel Jim Webb is accomplished, combat tested and proven, educated and determined to lead our country. Jim go for it. You are the only one today with the courage and background to led this fine but confused country. Remember Teddy Roosevelt and his courage and leadership he delivered at every opportunity: in Cuba and Washinton. You studied history. Get it going again, please. - a guest Fri, 26 Jan 2007 05:59:51 +0100
