How come Dubya can get away with an illegal war and I can't even get away with illegal parking?

He's a MORON of privilege, his daddy has a lot of friends in high places who look out for him i.e. "Dead Eye Dick". That's how he got into Yale and STOLE his first presidency.

Protesting the rotunda of the US Capital is illegal, whether silent or not. It is considered a non-partisan forum, and all such things are stopped there.  That is why she was arrested.\n\nIf you look at stories, you will see that the wife of a governor was arrested too, for wearing a shirt that supported the war in Iraq.  But that gets less press.

Mine personally, I'm not sure...but I bet someone's has.  It's funny that people are so partisan generally in this country that they can't see what the argument is really about.  The argument is about the legality of the way the President did it, not whether he should be doing it or not, and not (well, MOSTLY not) an attack on the President himself.  I think if you're going to hold the highest office in the land, you have to uphold the law BETTER than anyone else.

Paul_foster44 No one said that the troops were not honorable I think the point is our fuhrer is no more honorable than a used car salesman selling flood damaged cars from Katrina. Look there are treaties and laws that we must live by. Even the fuhrer himself says this when it is convenient for him to say(like talking about illegal aliens) war on terror or not I don't think anyone should give up 1 right under the constitution for any reason.No matter what anyone says give up one and others will surely follow.

I agree with the second guy. There is no way to charge Bush with a war crime (and I believe that crimes against humanity is a war crime) because of some international legal bullsh'it. I can't remember how it goes since it gets a little complicated, but bottom line, it can't be filed.\n\nGermany's going in the right direction though. They filed criminal charges against Rumsfeld but can't try him. All this is to create a precedent against Bush and his cronies. Good job, Germany.

I'm no lawyer, and I know very little about the American justice system, but I doubt a DA can bring charges of Treason against our old friend* George W. Bush.\n\n\n*By friend, I mean scum-sucking peon.

protest? like the many to "stop the war" ? protests dont work, dont bother with it. i never could see the point. i guess if it make a person feel good to get something off their chest fine, but dont stop traffic, make alot of noise or involve other ppl who dont give a rats ass about ur cause. as for ur question...go to a city official, police dept or something so they know about it and get set an area for u and ur fellow protesters and dont break the law. dont throw crap, dont vandalize, someone usually will go to far anyway and then think did they are a martyr if they get arrested.

I forgot the name for the act (posse commo tas? I think), but you can't use US troops to police the cities unless martial law is declared.  I am a Solider and I don't want to have to be the police or police our own cities.  We don't have an Army to protect us form ourselves.  My oath is to defend the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic and to the Constitution.  Not to police the streets.  We are trained to fight wars, not to be police.  You would not want the mentality of a warfighter to respond to a domestic disturbance, not a good combo.

No way. The G.W. Bush administration is commiting a crime. And that does not end in Iraq, it continues in Guantanamo Bay and with the continuation of the death penalty against its own citizens. Only hypocrites can believe that this is morally and justly correct.

He's a terrible flippin liar. The key to Dubya's acts (No Child Left Behind Act, Clean Water Act, Jobs Creation Act) is you pretty much have to make everything he says the exact opposite to make it true. Whether he actually believes what he's saying and the lies were already in production before Bush came into play (Sieg Heil, herr Puppetmiester) can be debated upon. I pesonally believe that, while Bush is evil (I don't think he's unaware of the lies), he's far too dumb to mastermind this kind of thing.

He was doing it illegally, not using his own money. This and all the money he conveniently forgot to mention in his land deal, plus what else the lib. media is keeping from us is supposed to clean up our congress?yea, their going to clean up alright, right into their bank accounts.

Yes! Give his deatails to your local police station. In the United Kingdom this is road rage which is an idictable offence, and although the Scottich law was renowned throughout the world and being just, these day we seem to follow what the U.S.does, so if it is acrime here it must surely be a crime in America, and judging from the way your question was written, you are in America

Very good link, Pops but you are missing the point!  Liberals say things to garner votes (which way is the wind blowing?) not to make the world safer.  They don't even believe we are in a war, just arrest a few terrorists and haul them into US courts to mete out fines - Poof! - problem ended.  If you read the link below you will get a very different impression of what Bush must deal with (without liberal support).

True, Bush has not committed any crimes. Libs are steaming mad that they have been out of power so long. They're also mad that Bush accomplished what they wanted to do but did not: topple Saddam.

He will try. Those two are such close business partners! You have no idea! They had so many deals under the table in Texas you would not believe! Clinton was a great man (despite his marriage), Dubya is a criminal in every sense of the word!\n\nPS: Neddie, you used to support republicans! What happened? Did you see the light? Welcome to the world of logic and intelligence!

They're not. Most of them are good people. It's not his fault you were doing something illegal. It's his job.\n\nEDIT: Jezebel, even with all those donuts?

I think you're a bit behind the times. Bush has signed into law a piece of legislation barring protests at military funerals.\n\nThe new law bars protests within 300 feet of the entrance of a national cemetery and within 150 feet of a road into the cemetery. This restriction applies an hour before until an hour after a funeral. Those violating the act would face up to a $100,000 fine and up to a year in prison.\n\nThis was directed at Fred Phelps and his band of nutjobs, no doubt.
