My answer with the "I have nothing to hide" types

"You were all worked up because illegal immigrants are breaking the law. Why is it okay for the President to break the law? At least the immigrant didn't take an oath to uphold the laws."

I tried it on my officemate yesterday, and it was the only thing to sink in.

I'd add, "The terrorists have said they wish to destroy our country. Looks to me that Bush is doing their job for them."

I also plan to use, "Would you like President Hillary Clinton looking at your phone records?"

he's from outerspace.

Bush is not above the law no matter how much he thinks that is so.

or their desk. Guaranteed to irritate (the truth is a bitch).

those who have "nothing to hide" who still find themselves ending up on "no fly lists" or voter felon rolls? How do you get on these lists, and how do you get off them? It happens all the time to people who have nothing to hide, even returning Iraq War soldiers!

register your guns.

I love that one.

Shouldn't the leader of our country be setting an example for us?

Console them on their bad fortune.

Hmmm, didn't think so. So why is it OK if it is Bush who is POTUS?

:evilfrown:

The impeached Bill Clinton out of respect for "the rule of law."

And are you sure that everybody you call, and everybody that calls you also has nothing to hide?

It's like they used to say about sex and v.d. - you're not just having sex with one person, you're having sex with everybody they had sex with, and everybody *those* people had sex with, and so on, and so on.

See, the way the database works, if any of the people you call or who call you have something to hide, you're now linked with whatever they have to hide. And if any of the people who called *them* (or the people they called) have something to hide, you're linked with that too.

Sure, you may eventually be able to prove your "link" with those people is innocent - but how much time and money will it cost you before you do?

I tried telling her that if Bush gets to do whatever he wants, he could "disappear" the nice man from Yemen who cleans our office. Her reply, "Oh, but he hasn't done anything wrong." :banghead:
