06:57 PST WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush has invoked executive privilege for the first time to keep Congress from seeing documents of prosecutors' decision-making in cases ranging from decades-old Boston murders to the Clinton-era fund-raising probe, The Associated Press has learned.

Hey man!

His name is sinkspur.

GOT IT? (BWahhaaaa!!)

[mancini]

No, I don't have any handy . . . except the poster-size one I have taped to my bedroom ceiling.

I will see what I can come up with. :-)

Whooooa, ROFLMAO, I like that one! lol

Totally agree with your post 170. Indicting Klintoon is no a no win scenario. Like kicking a junk yard dog. Doesn't project well.

Free world newspapers have been quite supportive of President Bush. Don't know what you're reading. True, EU doesn't like the death penalty. Tough. Free world leaders who have been here have rave reviews for President Bush as well. If you want to find a few negative comments, you can always find them about anything or anyone, but in general, the man has garnered more praise and respect and trust than any President in modern history.

Congress can and should go to court if it is confident in these charges.

I agree, but that would take a majority vote of the full House. I doubt that there are enough honorable people in the House to get that vote.

We all cried bloody murder everytime Clinton used executive privilege to keep something private. I don't like this one bit and hope that he can provide a dang good reason for doing it. We must remember that if we are to be any different from the liberals, we should stand on principles as to what's right and wrong, not blind support of our guy.

See if you run across the Bumper Sticker I mentioned in #198 if you would. I want to put one on my "IT" scooter so I can be just like the Pres!

"Kinda goes along with "Bush is a Jenius" on his BumperSticker."

You've made some good points but can't we wait to find out a little more why this was done before we proceed with the hanging? Your points about Congress having the duty to investigate, etc. are all well taken and correct, of course, but do you really think they will take appropriate action on either the Boston frame-up case or the Clinton fund raising matters? No, they have proven time and again they will NOT take appropriate action. What makes us think the "decades old murder in Boston" is the case you are talking about? This case has been on all the evening investigative news shows and Congress could have/should have taken action long ago.

Free World?......

Bush says "A Dictatorship is fine as long as your the Dictator"!

"except the poster-size one I have taped to my bedroom ceiling."

Hey, I thought that one was an Italian guy that resembled me a lot. Except not as Bulked Up.

Or Handsome.

Bush bless you, Demidog.

True believers everywhere
appreciate the personal sacrifices
you've made in our holy cause.

I guess I agree - maybe to unfold during next election- at face value though its M.A.D.

"your the Dictator" should be spelled "you're". You sound ignorant. That means you probably are ignorant. Words mean something; use them wisely.

"GOT IT? (BWahhaaaa!!)",

And you must be his mother.

It's called standing up and demanding, after all they represent us, if you don't, then you don't give a da#n about this country and what it stands for!

[SUSSA]

I don't want to hang Bush. I just try to be consistent. If I think something is wrong when you do it, I think it is wrong when I do it. As to how I know it's the same Boston case, see post #185. AP says it's that case.

[Demidog]

If you want to have the fear of Bush instilled in your heart check out #204.

LOL

Every single person being held is being held on visa violations.

How Clintonian of you. Some were and are American citizens.
