Bush officials violated Hatch Act, agency concludes

Wow, who saw that coming? The same people on the right who criticize Obama for everything under the sun are now defending Bush so ardently . I am in shock. You'd think these people who are now touting such an anti-big government philosophy would be more than happy to criticize Bush for his indiscretions during his term. Color me surprised. :roll:

This is just another trufer witch hunt. The Leftists will be trying prosecute GW for something, anything, 'til long after he's dead.
 
It is so funny to hear American conservatives...

If a president they dont like has someone employed by him that does something wrong.. then the buck stops with the President and he is to blame...

Sounds alot like what the Libbos were screaming during the Plame Affair.

If a president they do like has someone employed by him that does something wrong.. then it is in no way the Presidents fault!

Sounds alot like what the Libbos are saying about Obama, now.
 
The difference is only in scope and servarity, not legality. What is illegal is illegal. We have lesser and stronger punishments depending on the servarity, but if illegal, it's illegal.

You have a point, only thing wrong, is that there's no evidence that Bush did anything wrong. But hey! Who cares about the facts, right?

He will likely never be prosecuted for what he shoudl be prosecuted for. Kind of like Al Capone and OJ. But that is beside the point. Illegal is illegal, regardless of who we're talking about.

We'll see about that. When I read the article I see a suggestion that there might be. But I doubt anyone will ever see charges.

Especially, if we're talking about Bush. Right? He was AWOL from the service, afterall, so he's gotta be guilty of something.

Perhaps it's left over from your rants on the other thread, but you do realize what a "trufer" is, right? What part of this thread has anything remotely to do with 9/11? Also, what does this have to do with Leftists? Did Leftists conduct the investigation? Is any criticism of Bush valid, or are they all Leftist attacks? What about Obama? I suppose all of the attacks on him are legitimate in your eyes. It's not really that surprising that you would completely miss the irony behind my post.

So, you're okay with your tax dollars paying for Obama staffers to campaign for the democratic party and candidates?

"trufers", can be defined as anyone that wants the, "truth about Bush", to be exposed. Whether it's over 9/11, being AWOL, the Plame Affair, or this bull****.

So, go down the road with your partisan hackery, sir.
 
If he realized it, would he be using it in this context?

Good point. I suppose I just refused to believe that anyone would use it in a context that made no sense without some sort of purpose.

Well, at least we've established that you don't know what a "trufer" is, nor do you understand the concept of partisan hackery.

David Axlerod never took a political trip that was paid for with tax money? How many times has Axlerod and Emmanual hitched a ride in Air Force 1, to attend a political rally? More than a couple I bet. Whatcha think?

Are you okay with that?

I coined the word, so I get to define it.

No. He wasn't charged with being AWOL and shouldn't be charged now. It simply speaks to his service. And it is something you either care about or don't. I don't. But that doesn't change the facts.

What is guilty of is what he is guilty of, even if he is not charged with anything. Same with anyone else.

:lamo :lamo :lamo

You coined the term "truther"? BTW, you do realize that "trufer" is merely a condescending mispronunciation of the term "truther". Just because you mispronounce it on purpose and in a condescending way doesn't mean that the word changes meaning all of a sudden.
 
Are you? You ready to investigate Obama, too? We all know it happens.

ABSOLUTELY. If Obama's cabinet members are using federal equipment for political purposes, they should be investigated and prosecuted.

He wasn't charged with being AWOL, because he wasn't AWOL.
