A president's judgement on domestic issues corresponds to his judgement overall. Thus, why can't poor judgement domestically extend internationally? Bush has poor judgement internationally when he continues to push "free trade" and immigration. Why would he not have poor judgement when it comes to Iraq? Also why would Bush sign a bill to make it illegal to go after Al Quaida? That represents bad judgement. Look what happened shortly after.
What exactly is this "law against going after al Qaeda", W199i, you keep referring to? Considering that ALL laws from the Senate use a "S" suffix and all laws from the House use an "H" suffix, and that such a law would surely have been used by now by the Leftists to pound the President about the head and shoulders, you might just have been "'Net Scammed", like a lot of people are about laws all the time. It is beyond all belief that it has not been WIDELY publicized, if not used by the Dims to call for the President's head.
As far as the domestic issues you raised, they are, IMHO, an attempt at distraction from the main objective. Those laws and measures are wrong-headed in my own opinion as well, but they and the issues surrounding them are best blamed on the "soccer moms" and government 'crats who proposed them. Want them gone? Vote conservative. Throw out the Dems who comprise their strongest support. Don't forget, we (thankfully) do not have a dictatorship at home. The President must compromise with a hostile legislature at every turn on domestic issues.
As for the bar code, it sends your computer's address to the F.B.I whenever you see it. The loud noise you now hear are the helicopters outside your house.
Actually, it came with the picture. I'm also trying to find a colored-in version, thus far to no avail. It's a wonderful picture of a Naval Aircrewman, which I am.
Never mind answering my previous post. A quick Google search on "W199i" yielded only references to an individual named Greg Palast, who seems to believe that the President "stole" the 2000 election. The "legislation" appears only in his LEFTIST, paranoid book.
You must look for better sources of information. There are a lot of crackpots out there.
