"How is it possible for a President of the United States to get away with this? The unprecedented level of secrecy under Bush rule just isn't suppossed to exist in a country like ours. Upon leaving the Constitutional Convention in 1787, a Mrs. Powel asked Benjamin Franklin what the framers had just created: "a republic or a monarchy"? He replied, "A Republic, if you can keep it." Today we're perilously close to losing our grip on that republic."
Bush’s Top 10 “Dog Ate My Homework” Excuses
Try living in NY state where under Governor "I Am A Steamroller " Spitzer the entire budget was crafted behind closed doors by Joe Bruno & Sheldon Silver & than voted on without members of the Senate or Assembly knowing what was in it
What about Sandy Berger taking documents out & destroying them?
If you believe secrecy in government started with GWB here is a newsflash "It did not"
First of all, I know that secrecy did not start with GWB he has only elevated it to an art form. I guess he is trying to outdo Nixon. Second, it's just interesting to me that a thread about Bush excuses gets you to bring up Sandy Berger. Apples and Oranges. But I guess the Republican talking points on combating any negative comments about GWB is to bring up Sandy Berger so at least you follow the party line.

Secondly, it never ceases to amaze me that when someone brings up Democratic transgression, the subject is shifted & the one questioning them is attacked. I was not surprised by your response
Both parties **** in my eyes.I do not think GWB is Hitler's lost son . I would love to be able to have a ratioanl conversation on politics but when every statemnt re GWB is that he is Satanic, it is a tad difficult to do so
If you fail to see the difference between something that someone does in office and something someone does out of office, and who are responsible to the people of USA, then there is no point is any rational conversation.
The defense rests.
Always attack & never answer the question. This is why one cannot have a rational conversation
By the way, one of the board stalwarts compared me to the VT shooter. This is the compassion I have heard so much about from the other side
What question?
