What a bunch of whiners. Be patient and see how this works out in the long run. This Criminal Court will not happen in Bush's watch.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I TOLD you he would back down. Hell, he didn't even have the balls to wait until his ultimatum date of July 15th.

Bush is a complete sellout and will turn out to be the worst RINO ever elected.

[Enduring Freedom]

Bush,

Wake up, sir.

You earn our respect for standing up for values, and then you CAVE?

This REEKS of POWELL.

She once was a grand old nation. With no borders, dwindling self-determination, a Congress and a President who flip us the bird, there isn't much left that resembles the nation we were gifted with. There's been quite a price paid for what is truning into the American nightmare. May God curse the men who sell us out!

[arkfreepdom]

Maybe we should wait to see exactly what happens before we start criticizing GW. Man, you people are so transparent.

[Bandolier]

I'm beginning to think our country has a severe yeast infection...

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

The title of this article should be: "Bush Goes Liberal...Again."

[LarryLied]

Seems like a way to let everyone off the hook. Bush still should have told them to stuff it though.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Hell, he started caving practicall the day he got elected!

A year will give us time to UNSIGN the treaty. This is good! It had to be ratified anyway - and it never was and it never will be. Somehow, we will overcome this stupid treaty that Clinton left us.

This is worse than a sellout.

Surrending our sovereignty, for which millions of Americans have shed blood for, is something I would expect of a known traitor, like Klinton.

Did the Senate ratify this "treaty"?

If not, it has no more force of law than a piece of crapped-on newspaper.

The United States has been demanding immunity on grounds that other countries could use the new court for frivolous and politically motivated prosecutions of American soldiers.

But in the end, he sold out America's troops because he doesn't have the nuts to stand up to Europe and the U.N. When the first bunch of American servicemen are rounded up, imprisoned, and executed, we'll see how good Bush feels about selling out American troops to countries that hate us.

Check this out....

First slip on the slippery slope!

The ultimate joke is these boys and girls in Washington are going to clean up the crime and corruption in corporate America, as if there isn't massive fraud and accounting abuse in the federal government. The only things that keeps the Federal bureaucracy afloat are the standing armed forces, the printing press at the US mint, and a public school system which has produced an alliterate, innumerate, and apathetic electorate. The Department of Agriculture has billions unaccounted for, and the buffoons in both parties just passed a massive farm bill. This after a few years ago they promised to wean agriculture from the government busom with the Freedom to Farm Act. I have nothing but the highest respect for the House managers of the impeachment, the rest of those slugs are worth less than a bucket of warm spit.

Email Bush at president@whitehouse.gov and let him know that you see thru his conservative pose.

[ibme]

PUKE!

[Republican Wildcat]

The President already unsigned it.

clinton gets to go to the Hague.

Not to the ICC, he doesn't. Crimes committed before the court came into effect are immune from prosecution.
