Dangers of a Cornered George Bush
Applied Psychoanalysis
By Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity & Dr. Justin Frank
As we watched the pressure build on President Bush, looked
toward the additional challenges we expect him to face over the
next 18 months, and pondered his tendency to disregard the law
and the Constitution, we felt very much in need of professional
help in trying to estimate what kinds of decisions he is likely to
make. Continue

A Republic, If We Can Keep It.
Ernest Partridge
Bush’s “National Continuity Policy, issued May 9, states,
in effect, that in the event of a “catastrophic emergency,”
which might mean a terrorist attack or natural disaster,
within "the homeland” or abroad, the President could, as
a “unitary executive,” seize near dictatorial powers. This
means that another hurricane of Katrina size, or a
Richter-7 earthquake, or even a massive civil disobedient
protest, could trigger the onset of a Bush dictatorship.

highest of any president since modern polling began-to the
two-thirds disapproval score that has stalked him through
the last year, thanks to the Iraq debacle, without getting

THE 'BUMPER STICKER' THAT BLOWS UP
Ann Coulter
For six years, the Bush administration has kept America safe
from another terrorist attack, allowing the Democrats to
claim that the war on terrorism is a fraud, a "bumper sticker,"
a sneaky ploy by a power-mad president to create an apocryphal
enemy so he could spy on innocent librarians in Wisconsin. And
that's the view of the moderate Democrats. The rest of them
think Bush was behind the 9/11 attacks.

WRONG AND WHITE AND READ ALL OVER
NEW YORK--On Iraq, the right was wrong. It's a slam dunk. So
why do the wrong righties keep raking in big media cash? And
why aren't lefties taking a victory lap?

There must be an underlying shady reason that Speaker Pelosi
