Bush: "I'm responsible for the Federal government."


Constitution: "No, you're not."

The Decider cuts loose with another one, lets the mask slip, and reveals his authoritarianism for all to see:
[BUSHH] On my grade, I could have — we — the federal government, and I’m responsible for the federal government, could have done better in coordinating with the state and local government in its response.

Um, no. Last I checked, the Federal government had three branches. Let’s review:
The federal government has three branches: the executive, legislative, and judicial. Through a system of separation of powers, each of these branches has some authority to act on its own, some authority to regulate the other two branches, and has some of its authority, in turn, regulated by one or both of the other branches.

That will be part of the impeachment charges. Yes he is responsible and should pay for the crimes. Most likely he'll blame someone else. Gonzales is good to go he can take the blame for this one.

Well, the Gerbil known for pointing the finger to others.. He certainly doesn;t want his hands dirty. But, the bottom line is that he is the President and he runs this country. He responsible for all employees and actions in the WH... He may pointing 3 fingers at somebody else but there are 3 fingers pointing back at him.
