Your colors are bleeding. Thank you.
Foreigners come to America, getting naturalized in record numbers, and tell us how to be American.
I'm surprised at your level of certainty. I think that in the exceptionally unlikely event that Bush had set up 9/11, he might still be immune from prosecution.
He would at least have an argument that he was doing it to help the US,
Certain government employees kill people as part of their official duties on a regular basis.

The Committees of Correspondence threw off their oppressors and so must all righteous Americans today.
I don't think so. He doesn't have the legal authority to order a 9/11-type scheme, so doing so is in no way protected as part of is job.
Isn't that how America was formed to begin with: A bunch of foreigners arrived... made a country... decided "how to be American" together.
built on cultures of tyranny, assassination, pedophilia, rape, and sodomy
I don't know why anyone responds to iAmerican. He is clearly mentally ill.Dude... get help. You aren't well.

iAmerican said:With the Armed Forces' field rank and file aware that he committed 9-11 and lied us into their deaths in false war...
As all Americans know Bush committed 9-11...
This is my country. My family built it. I gave my life to uphold it.
Did you contribute?
Okay, I see your argument. My counter-argument is that there is no actual definition of what it means to "preside" over the US. Presidents do all sorts of things for which no legal authority exists - only tradition and the lack of anyone strongly arguing against it. Is there any legal authority for pardoning the turkey on Thanksgiving? (What a stupid example but go with me.) If Bush put together 9/11, I suspect he'd be doing it as part of his role as Commander in Chief with some sort of argument that the whole things was actually necessary to fight foreign enemies. It might be enough to save him from a criminal prosecution.
But they did. The report I linked to was written in July 2004, well before the election. And the complaints listed in this latest "study" were widely circulating back then too. There's nothing new here.
Are you claiming the public instantly understood what the report said?
Isn't the truth the public was in denial the Bush Administration would do such a thing,
The informed 2008 public would have voted very differently from the 2004.
The bottom line is congress failed to perform their oversight job in 2004.
