re: Bush on the Constitution: 'It's just a goddamned piece of paper'

Well, get ready Eric. You're about to be smeared for posting what a majority of us have known for a long time. To me, there's absolutely no doubt that our leader disdains the Constitution and the personal liberties and right to privacy it guarantees. Obviously, without a tape recording or video showing the man said it, we'll never prove to the Bushies that the man spoke those words. Hell, I doubt even that would sway them. It sounds to me completely in character with the administration's actions since 9/11. They seized upon the nation's panic to impose clearly unconstitutional provisions in the form of the Patriot Act. I certainly hold Congress accountable as well but give them a little leeway in that they were strongarmed by the administration and scared themselves of the patriotic fervor.

These statements by Bush should outrage every American no matter what their party affiliation. Maybe this will shine the light on what the neocons truly believe.
