colbert roasts bush

thank you stephen colbert

this performance took balls

scorching the administration



this blistering comedy “tribute” to bush left george and laura unsmiling at its close

"No wonder Bush left in a snit. He got shown up for what he is --- by someone who pretends to love him."

bush has broken more that 750 laws since he took office...

here's how democracy works:

"Bush is the first president in modern history who has never vetoed a bill, giving Congress no chance to override his judgments. Instead, he has signed every bill that reached his desk, often inviting the legislation's sponsors to signing ceremonies at which he lavishes praise upon their work.

Then, after the media and the lawmakers have left the White House, Bush quietly files ''signing statements" -- official documents in which a president lays out his legal interpretation of a bill for the federal bureaucracy to follow when implementing the new law.

In his signing statements, Bush has repeatedly asserted that the Constitution gives him the right to ignore numerous sections of the bills -- sometimes including provisions that were the subject of negotiations with Congress in order to get lawmakers to pass the bill. He has appended such statements to more than one of every 10 bills he has signed."

i guess democracy means the power to violate any law you find inconvenient, that's bush's gift to the world

bush's america is a democratic dictatorship ...

"we now live in a nation in which the president has the omnipotent power to ignore all constitutional restraints on his power"

"Bush now wields the same omnipotent, dictatorial powers that other dictators in history have wielded"
