"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!"

Iran dumps U.S. dollar for oil trades

Well we sure are stepping up the rhetoric about Iran again, aren't we? All of these stories are from within the last 2 days...

Just before we bombed Iraq, Iraq dumped the dollar as well. Without the world's oil traded in U.S. dollars almost exclusively, the dollar would have been nearly worthless years ago. Propping up the dollar is sure a good reason to bomb a country, at least in the twisted minds of this administration. Let's not forget that the United States is the world's largest consumer of oil, as well. Killing two birds with one stone...

I will leave it at Iran stories for tonight, more will come tomorrow...
