Argomento: George W. Bush's opinion of the U.S. Constitution

http://www.capitolhillblue.com/artman/publish/article_7779.shtml

-----------------------------
GOP leaders told Bush that his hardcore push to renew the more onerous provisions of the [U.S.A. Patriot Act] could further alienate conservatives still mad at the President from his botched attempt to nominate White House Counsel Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court.

"I don't give a godd**n," 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 godd**ned piece of paper!"
-----------------------------------

No need to defend Bush here. He is indefensible, just as are many Democratic presidents who likewise manifested disdain for the Constitution they took an oath to uphold & defend.
