Consequences
Bush said he wanted to run the government like a business. He wanted to be the CEO, but he turned out to be a pansy. In business, when you screw up royally, there are consequences.....you get fired, demoted, or transferred.

Bush does not know how to fire people. He's probably scared to. HE is not a leader, and he has never in his life been one. He doesn't have what it takes to be a leader.....BALLS!

Rumsfeld should have been gone years ago. Rove should have been fired years ago, too. But Bush is so damned stupid, he can't see firing someone smarter than he is, which is basically everyone.

GOnzales is a no-brainer. The failure of Bush to handle the office of president is a direct reflection of the republican party, they put him there, kept him there, and followed his every command. Those who are showing a smidgeon of backbone now in calling for the resignation of Gonzales just want to keep their cushy jobs and titles. They were pushed to act like men.

How can any republican say in good faith they back this freakin moron? We have to be subjected to the embarassment of this idiot day in and day out. It is time to impeach this moron. We can't stand another two years of utter shame because George W. Bush can't handle the job. Look at what he has done.

1. It boggles the mind...
It is bad enough that we suffered through his first term in office...that fact that we have two more years of this dipshit makes me sick to my stomach.

He has screwed up everything he has ever touched. I don't know why anyone would think that he would be an effective President. He is a puppet for the neo cons -- someone that they could manipulate to do what they wanted. (Iraq, for example.)

When Rethugs ask me what "qualifications" someone has to be President, I always ask them what qualifications did Bush have? He was the governor of Texas -- big fucking deal.

I cannot wait for the nightmare to be over.

3. There Must Be Something About Him
but I sure don't see it. Not the kind of person I would want to stand in line with at the grocery store let alone have a beer with.

5. There is something about him..
his last name.

That's the major qualification for any high-powered position in America today, followed by which school you went to and which frat you pledge.

4. Don't know what business you work in, but in the large-cap world, the CEO
never suffers any consequences, no matter how badly he/she screws up. Even when the offenses are so grievous that the board dumps them, they still walk away with millions and millions of dollars into the next company they can screw up.

The real shame is that arbusto® has, in fact, run this country just like a corporation, that's why everything is so much worse.
