from the BBC

The Supreme Court has pulled the rug out from under President George W Bush in dramatic fashion with its verdict that he has no authority to try terror suspects in military tribunals.

And in his first public appearance after the announcement - alongside Japan's Junichiro Koizumi - he showed how rattled he was by the news.

"It was not always a given that the United States and America would have a close relationship," he said, trying to highlight the remarkable turnaround in relations between the US and Japan - not America - since World War II.

And his annoyance showed a moment later when not just one but two reporters asked him about the ruling.

He said he had not had time to take it in, finishing his answer to the second journalist with: "I'm sorry you wasted your question."

...

But the president has made it clear that he will continue trying to find a way to try the detainees by military tribunal rather than releasing them, giving them courts martial or prosecuting them in the civilian court system.

In other words, he's a stupid, petty, stubborn law-breaker. And our president. Yay. :-(

Soooooooooo, they wanted to impeach Clinton just 'cause he lied about tupping the help, but Bush starts a war on lies, tortures detainees, and breaks laws right and left and bupkis!. Every time I see him caught in flagrante, I keep hoping, but what happens? Precisely dick (pun intended). What the hell is wrong with this country?

To paraphrase someone (anyone have the attribution?): Would someone please just give Bush a blowjob so we can impeach him?

Yeah, as usual, America doesn't have any problem with violence, just sex.
