What would need to be done to get Bush a couple of more terms??

[kentuck]

I know that is unfathomable to some but if there is a way, it will be done. Can Congress alone change the 22nd Amendment? (It is the 22nd, isn't it?) Or does it have to be approved by two-thirds of the states? Do they have enough state houses in their control to repeal Amendment? What exactly would be the process?

1. you repeal an amendment to the Constitution the same way you pass one

[AverageJoe]

2. My guess is that they'll just declare martial law

and park tanks in the streets. I wish I were joking.

[Jamastiene]

4. I wish you were joking too~

And to some degree I think they already have declared martial law... :scared:

[FreedomAngel82]

20. I thought I read

about him trying in his last term?

[EFerrari]

3. I really don't think the Cabal needs Bush.

All they need to do is have him annoint someone and refuse to allow election reform.

I know that doesn't answer your question. It just seems to me that if they can front Bu$h, they can front lots of people. So, in a way, it's much easiert imo for them to hang onto the White House.

:(

6. That's a good and scary point eom

[Lisa]

15. even scarier -- it might actually benefit them to have him sidelined ...

If he did get diagnosed with a stroke (as some DUers have suggested he might have had) -- or worse -- they could portray him as being brave and self-sacrificing.

9. Sad, but true.

Anything too radical might wake up the sheeple.

Many of my Dem friends, who were active in campaigning & donating to the 2004 election, dropped all interest in anything political on 11/3. Ask most of them what BBV means & I doubt they could tell you.

If we don't demand that election fraud be addressed & fixed, they won't need martial law. They will have quietly & covertly stolen our democracy & only those paying attention will have a clue. And with the help of our complicit media, they will successfully convince the everyone else that we are conspiracy theorists with a chip on our shoulders.

I never thought I'd see America come to this!

[EFerrari]

13. I agree with Joe, it IS scary. But we can't stay scared

Instead, mine everyday for opportunities to turn 'er around.

This is another way the Cabal takes advantage of us -- the size of this country. We think, "It's huge, so many people to inform, too big for me."

But, the net is a great leveler, my friends. Lookit how we got Ohio challenged in Congress?

They're going to have to get a lot scarier to take us out. And, I really believe this is all they got. We're years, now, getting to know their bag of tricks.

The corporate media is now saying "bloggers" everyday. I see a tipping point on the horizon.

5. They seem to have rigged things to collapse as soon as he leaves.

Everything goes bad around 2010. Maybe they are assuming there will be a Dem pres then.

[EFerrari]

8. Collapse for whom? I have trouble with this in this way

We know the electorate is f@cked. But, is the Cabal? Qui bono? You always have to ask that question when you try to scope out the pod people.

I've always thought they wanted to make Iraq as big a disaster as possible, but can't figure out why. Same with just about everything they touch.

How do they benefit from crisis after crisis? Sure, it makes us easier to manipulate in some ways. But, that's not the whole story.

[TheFarseer]

7. Why would they do that when they have Jeb?

or anyone else that will listen to them. Find another patsy and buy and steal the next election.

[Rockholm]

10. Fine. Change It. Watch Clinton DESTROY bush.

[patricia92243]

12. Good Point!

[EFerrari]

14. Hope you're right. I just don't see this country electing a woman

let alone a smart one.

She's pissed off the left by her centrism and also the right by just existing.

What's wrong with that assessment? A real question.

And, I guess my whole problem with the Clintons is, they both made centrism work for them. It doesn't work for most of the rest of the party. So, we may get one or two terms but then there will be this whole ugly upheaval again.

Tell me where I'm wrong?

[Rockholm]

18. I was referring to BILL CLINTON.

He would outclass bush in a billion ways. The debates would be a hoot.

[EFerrari]

23. LOL! My mistake

[somnior]

11. Well...

A bill was introduced in 2003, I think it was, to repeal the amendment dictating a maximum of two Presidential terms. This was Republicans in the House. I have no idea what its status is.

First, the Congress would need to approve of the draft amendment. Then, it would have to be ratified by enough states.

It's highly unlikely to pass either house - it would need 66% approval from each. That every Republican in the Senate, for example, and a dozen Democrats, would all approve such a thing is unthinkable.

Amendments also need 3/4 state approval - so 37 states would have to ratify it before it went into force.

A constitutional convention is the other option to amend the Constitution - but that's never been attempted.

[Quakerfriend]

16. Thanks for the details !

Only days after *co started this term, I heard swirls of this....from Santorum, I believe!:scared:

I really don't believe that *co will complete this term. People are gradually starting to wake up.

My repug sister and brother-in-law rented F 911 last week and watched it with their kids!! They are very active politically and well connected within the community. (Amazing how smart folks can be so ill informed!).

I just hope they wake up before it's too late! This admin is so drunk with their own lies that they cannot possibly go on like this much longer!

[googly]

17. Two more terms for Bush named Jeb! And after that there is the

half hispanic nephew of GW who will be the next Bush
to take over. I think we are flumoxed by the Bushes.

[CoffeeCat]

19. I was wondering about this as well...

The PNACers will not allow their grip on the government to loosen.

They invaded Iraq. By 2008, they will have invaded Syria and Iran--and will probably be suiting up for the next invasions. They won't let this work be undone--by a Dem or a Republican.

My guess is that we may see the PNACers attempt to re-elect pretty much the same cast of characters. Same people, new jobs. I'm guessing they'll go for a Condi Rice presidency. She's malleable like *. Like *, She would e a "figurehead" leader--surrounded by and defering to those more powerful and experienced than she is.

I would not be surprised if * stayed in the White House in some capacity. I know that sound outrageous--but the sense of entitlement and myopic idiocy that * has displayed--leaves this open as a possibility, in my book. Same with Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Feith and other PNAC players.

I really wouldn't put it past all of them to remain in power--in different roles.

21. he could declare a national emergency due to some obscure

& unrelated terrorist threat and then order us into a "police state" under "martial law", thus suspending any national elections.

And that is a scary thought to ponder. He probably considers pretzels a terrorst opponent at this point in time.

[AuntiBush]

22. FDR did it! Don't scare me like this!

:scared:

Good Grief! If that happens, the pets and I are heading for Canada for certain. But if FDR did it, I'm sure the evil-ones already have the strategy in works. Oh, I want to :puke: thinking about it!

:puke: No! People want stand for it! No way!
