An absolute disgrace to the institution of the Presidency.
Hinchey on Bush: It's disgraceful

President Bush's action to authorize the release of classified information is "an absolute disgrace to the institution of the Presidency," Rep. Maurice Hinchey, D-Hurley, said yesterday.

"The heart and motive of this case is about the deliberate attempt at the highest levels of this administration to discredit those who were publicly revealing that the White House lied about its uranium claims leading up to the war," he said in a prepared statement. "If so, President Bush and other top members of his administration knowingly lied about uranium to the Congress, which is a crime. ... The heart of the CIA leak case cannot and must not be ignored."

1. Bush IS a disgrace
Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 10:46 AM by C_U_L8R
A failed president... an embarrassment to our nation
and an insult to our Constitution.

The Republicans have also failed... having practically ruined our
economy, our liberties and our way of life. We are all ashamed
of what is happening across our country.

Fortunately... as history has proven over and over...
the whole crooked bunch are circling the drainpipe now
and it's just a matter of time before they all go under.

Freeps.. that includes you. Ha

2. For that and TEN THOUSAND OTHER REASONS the man
is a disgrace... as a President, (even) as a politician, as an American... heck, he's a disgrace as a human being. This is just one of his more minor malicious/evil acts--though, happily, it's one that's getting a fair amount of coverage.
