Where are all the congress people? How much did they pay to buy them off?<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s time for another constitutional convention.

I&#8217;ll try and dig up a mp3 of Bush announcing war on Iraq for a A\/B comparison, but until then, ask yourself &#8211; could bush ever present so rational and well thought out a argument?
