If Obama wins, he will have to appoint an official under-bus-chucker to get rid of his faithful followers.

The the terrorist-loving left was hoping for a "civil war" in Iraq. If they keep this crap up, they'll get one here.

Hey lefty, shove this!!!!

From another article posted last month:
"The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing Friday [July 2008] it insisted was not about removing President Bush from office. But critics of Bush's policies couldn't pass up the chance to charge the president with a long list of impeachable 'high crimes and misdemeanors.'"

Speaking of 'high crimes and misdemeanors', here are some facts I discovered and put together some time ago regarding the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, John Conyers Jr...

The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, John Conyers Jr of Michigan, is an endorser of the Revolutionary Communist Party call to "Drive Out the Bush Regime". So, if anyone needs to be 'investigated', it's that SOB. But since the republicans are mostly spineless cowards, I doubt it will ever happen.

Click on the WCW link just below and see: "Endorsers of the Call to Drive Out the Bush Regime Include". Conyers' endorsement appears right after Ward Churchill's. Al Sharpton's, Maxine Waters and Jesse Jackson Jr's endorsements are also on the list:

And on Oct 5, 2006, the demonRat chair of the House Judiciary Committee, John Conyers Jr, GAVE A SPEECH to the World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime organization. Here's full-page coverage of it from the WCW website:
http://www.worldcantwait.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3114&Itemid=243

Fact: World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime is a Maoist-revolutionary movement/organization initiated and controlled by the Revolutionary Communist Party. (scroll down the list that appears (after clicking link) to find the World Can't Wait organization --rwor.org is the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party):

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
Profile: World Can't Wait (WCW)

*Revolutionary communist movement that stages protests against the Bush administration

*Organizes college and high-school students

*Founded in June 2005 by Charles Clark Kissinger, a longtime leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :
"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning. And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":

Here's the Revolutionary Communist Party (see link below) boasting of a FULL PAGE 'World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime' ad of theirs which appeared in the New York Slimes.(either "rwor.org" or "revcom.us" takes you to the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party). The NY Times has since allowed several additional full-page RCP/WCW ads.

Rush said a long time ago: If the next terror attack in the U.S. occurs in 2020, it will be Bush's fault.

Of course the attack that occurred after he was in office for nine months was his fault too. Fo sho. (I stole that again from the most esteemed J. Goldberg.)

Actually, the far Right has similar dreams too, i.e. Nuremberg-style trials of Bush officials for having committed “treason” over immigration.

[sport]

If they think that they can get away with it, they will do it in a heartbeat.

Why the Republican National Committee wants to give the White House to the Democrats I don’t know. But I know that they do because they are runnibg the weaket candidate that they could find. And they scheduled the primaries so that he would get the Republican nomination.

[Rebelbase]

I wonder how many Americans would stand in the way of Federal authorities attempting to extricate Pres. Bush or VP Cheney from their residences upon refusing to participate in such a circus?

[DCPatriot]

The same party that wants to disarm us and bring back the Fairness Doctrine.

Good luck with that. There will be a bloody revolution and Martial Law.

[wendy1946]

That happens, and Civil War II is on, immediately.

[M. Dodge Thomas]

Never happen - this is like the calls here to try this or that Democrat politician for “treason” - either one would be political suicide for the party that tried it.

But to the extent that someone does want to take it seriously, what that is the basic argument argument against setting up extra judicial “tribunals” to try anyone - history demonstrates very clearly that once a government gets in the habit of using such techniques to try anyone, it becomes very tempting use them to try everyone.

[ncalburt]

Where are all those irrational McCain haters promoting that brilliant strategy “ LET OBAMA WIN SO WE CAN WIN REAL BIG LATER “ tonight ????????

[Libloather]

And they are quite serious...

The impeached *Squirt averaged one Iraq bombing for every week he was in office. Where are the calls for his head?

I don’t care!

[TribalPrincess2U]

Maybe certain people shoud read this book: War Crimes: The Left's Campaign to Destroy the Military and Lose the War on Terror

Bestselling author and military expert Lt. Col. Robert "Buzz" Patterson (Ret.) lays bare the Left's extensive campaign against all things military and how it severely compromises the ability to fight the war on terror.

Then go over mr. Clinton's past.

[Calpernia]

The left seems to love Nurmberg Style.

Federal Office of the Environment and Public Works has released this statement:

NUREMBERG-STYLE TRIALS PROPOSED FOR GLOBAL WARMING SKEPTICS

[Enchante]

I suppose it might be “divisive” to hang all these left-wing traitors — but can we just send them all to colonize the Moon?

[Rembrandt]

Just imagine the upshot of this. Just imagine the former (true) independents sending post cards to their former lefty friends.

“Just Joined the Republican Party. Glad you aren’t here!”

Jusy imagine a liberal potty in decline!

[ModelBreaker]

I think the thing to emphasize here is that this is a serious conversation going on among people who might have influential voices or play influential roles in an Obama administration. Many of them want to put John Yoo — a special favorite of theirs — on trial, whether before a Nuremberg-style tribunal, a criminal court, or a truth commission with as-yet unspecified powers. And, of course, they wouldn't stop with Yoo; if they had their way, they would likely have a long list of former Bush administration officials to put in the dock. They are serious.

There's something very Venezuelan about today's left in America. They have their claws so deeply into America, it may take 20 years of an American Pinochet to rid us of them. I'm not sure our republic has the ability to shake them off in its current form.

[rlmorel]

What Rumsfeld will say if they come for him.

I sure do miss him, he had a knack for completely driving the moonbats crazy.

[Ramius]

Yah know... we should BE so lucky that they’d try something like this. The actual FACTS of the Bush doctrine and the war on terror, including the war in Iraq... are compelling. As President Bush said... Bring. It. On.

I dare’s ya.

[section9]

Look, these people have been talking to each other in an echo chamber for years.

To them, Bin Laden and his ilk are an abstraction. However, Bush and the Republicans are evil.

This is what extremism does to people: it leads to self-righteousness and anger, and of course, hate.

They are not thinking of the good of the country, they are only thinking of themselves.

Remember, these people do not understand that if elected, they have to govern the whole country. They don't care about the Republican half of the country.

Be Seeing You,

[o_zarkman44]

A Truth commission???? That is a laugh. congress couldn’t find the truth if it was choking them.

But they could very well come up with a good story. anyone who disagrees will be arrested under provisions of the Patriot Act. Civil disobedience will be squashed as well. All participants will be branded as insurgents and arrested.

Am I making this up?
No.

We have some power hungry elitist DemoRats/socialists who will do everything to bring us down into compliance. they will have the cops, the military, and the FBI at their discression to do their bidding.

America is on the brink of a communist coup. All it will take is one Obama gaining the presidency, and Dingy Harry and Nazi Pelousey already have their script in place.

I agree with another poster to stock up on ammo.
But how many people will actually leave their comfort zone to fight if the need be? Or will a revolt crumble after being denigraded to a terrorist group and slain on the front page of the New York Times?

Talk is cheap. There are very few who will risk everything to fight for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
When they take down Free Republic and block communication between like minded people, it will be every man and woman for themselves.

[Billthedrill]

Mostly self-righteous woofing on the part of someone who is (1) a political neophyte, (2) a profound ignoramus, and (3) only hoping for an examination of "secret" papers that will give her the evidence she's just sure is out there but doesn't actually have.

It isn't happening. If it did it would be on the basis of such flimsy, trumped-up charges that absolutely nobody, including the ones making them, would be safe. It would be a throwback to Stalin's show trials. And it would cost the Dems both houses of Congress and the Presidency for decades to come.

There is another route, however, far safer for the moonbats pushing for trials, and I do foresee them pushing it. That is for Obama to sign an agreement placing the United States under the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court and allowing that body to indict various U.S. citizens, not Bush himself right away but certainly that high if it appears they'll get away with it. The rules of evidence for that court are, to say the least, not those of any court under the Constitution.

That sort of power play is an internationalist's wet dream, and some of them are willing to risk a civil war - I'm honestly not exaggerating here - in order to try it. Fortunately these seem fringe players at the moment. Were it ever otherwise things could get very nasty very fast.

These moonbats want an American version of Winnie Mandela’s “Truth and Reconciliation Commission” in South Africa. The guilty will, of course, immediately be dragged out into the middle of the Capitol steps and be necklaced with flaming gas-soaked tires. (But don’t worry, they’ll buy carbon credits so the executions will be carbon-neutral.)
