DUMMERSTON, Vt. - A couple of weeks ago, Doug Thompson, the proprietor
of the political news Web site Capital Hill Blue, reported that
President Bush referred to the Constitution as "just a goddamned piece
of paper."
This remark came during a November meeting with Republican
Congressional leaders about renewal of the Patriot Act. They were
trying to tell the president that some of his conservative supporter
are still upset over what they believe is an overreach of federal
power.
"I don't give a goddamn," Bush allegedly retorted. "I'm the President
and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way. ... Stop throwing the
Constitution in my face. It's just a goddamned piece of paper."
This story, according to Thompson, vouched for as true by at least
three people present at the meeting, reinforces our view that not only
does the Bush administration not care about the Constitution or civil
liberties, it also is quick to confuse dissent with disloyalty.
Holy S***!!!
