"I don’t give a goddamn," Bush retorted. "I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way."

"Mr. President," one aide in the meeting said. "There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution."

"Stop throwing the Constitution in my face," Bush screamed back. "It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!"

Think Progress » Snow: Intense New Levels Of Violence In Iraq Are ‘Signs Of Success’

Think Progress » Snow: Intense New Levels Of Violence In Iraq Are ‘Signs Of Success’: "During his press briefing yesterday, White House spokesman Tony Snow said the increasing chaos was a positive sign. The new levels of attacks 'fit a pattern that we see throughout the region,' he said, 'which is that when you see things moving towards success, or when you see signs of success, that there are acts of violence.'"

So, violence in Iraq = Success!! Mission accomplished again... This is straight out of Orwell's 1984, it is the exact definition of "doublespeak."
