"He's acting as if he's unaccountable -- a whole fourth branch of government unto himself. So my view is if you're not in the executive branch we shouldn't fund you as the executive branch," Rep. Rahm Emanuel, D-Ill., said.

Emanuel is set to introduce his bill this week. The vice president's spokeswoman accused Emanuel of "playing politics."

Hmm that's a good idea, cut off Cheney's funding, which would mean that the power and water would eventually be cut off as well.

Now the only question left is, "who's going to do it?"

I can see it now Cheney's sitting at his table snickering to himself about seceding from the executive branch, the cool air conditioning blowing through the stray hairs of his bald head, while eating a giant bowl of gumbo, when suddenly... the door bell rings.

"What the hell", Cheney thinks, "This is supposed to be a safe secure location"

"Who is it!", Cheney screams out the side of his mouth, pieces of gumbo falling on the floor and his suit.

"Washington D.C. Power and Light company sir, you have an over due bill and we either need to collect it, or shut your power off"

"Oh , uh, just a minute", Cheney says, trying to compose himself, "I'll cut you a check".

The poor electric man is waiting outside thinking everything's cool, the door slowly opens and then BAM! Cheney shoots him, then goes inside, pours a stiff drink to calm his nerves and later in the evening he'll tell the press that he was really trying to shoot somekind of waterfowl that was carrying the Bird Flu. ( of course the family of the meter man will later apologize to Cheney)

A contributor to an ABC News blog forum acknowledged it likely was a "slip of the tongue" but charged the president "knows what he is doing is wrong."

"He's so caught up in his legacy and in the money he's going to make from the corporations he schilling (sic) for that he really just doesn't care about the USA, its laws, its people, or its sovernity (sic).... I would hope that House Republicans might move for his impeachment... This would stop the bill and neutralize him," wrote "Kevin."

Of course, White House spokesman Tony Snow has stated that Bush, "misspoke". No shit Tony! But just because he misspoke doesn't mean that he wasn't sincere about what he said.

But don't worry "W" wasn't the only traitor today. Even though the Senate has already voted two times to kill the latest amnesty bill, Bush made it clear that he wants it passed. Today the Senate voted to revive the amnesty legislation.

Here in Missouri, Senator Bond voted for the bill, Senator McCaskill voted against it. You can view the roll call of today's vote by clicking on this link.

The citizens are almost to their breaking point. Senators and Representatives are supposed to represent the views of their constituents, yet they have voted a third time to revive this amnesty legislation that no one wants!

Recent letters in the Southeast Missourian are reflective of what most people are thinking but are too scared to say. From the June 20th, 2007 edition of the Southeast Missourian:

"To the editor:"When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which connect them with another ... ." We recognize these words as the beginning of our Declaration of Independence. It later continues, "Whenever any form of Government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it." Is the form of government currently being practiced by political leaders of both parties the same as our Founding Fathers envisioned when they signed their declaration?

Did the Founding Fathers envision a time when all three branches of government would ignore the will of the people when their causes are just? Did they visualize a time when all three branches of government would restrict the freedom of speech for its citizens with the McCain-Feingold campaign-finance bill? What about the immigration bill before Congress? What about the hundreds of rulings by the Supreme Court that blatantly violate the Constitution as envisioned by our Founders?

Would those same 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence feel a need to once again apply their signatures to another declaration? Would they today feel once again the need to dissolve the political bands of a government that no longer listens to the legitimate will of the people? Is it time for another revolution? Wake up, America.

GENE N. ISOM, Olive Branch, Ill. "

From the June 24, 2007 edition of the Southeast Missourian newspaper:

"To the editor:I want to thank Gene Osom so very much for his June 20 letter. I couldn't agree more.

Another revolution? I hate to agree, but I don't think any other solution is possible. I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said something like, "The blood of patriots is democracy's own manure." Since I'm 82 years young, I may miss it. I fear, however, for my children and grandchildren.

Thanks again for an outstanding letter.

CHARLES J. LANCE, Scott City "

The treasonous actions of President George W. Bush and his all too willing accomplices such as Kit Bond here in Missouri , have just brought us one step closer.
