The question

I know I've been asking it for a few years now.

...
If the president is above the law, what would stop him from canceling elections until his declared WAR is over?


That's it. That's the central question here. Is it a hypothetical? They assert that Bush is above all laws, that the never-ending "war on terror" gives him the right - the responsibility - to do anything he feels is necessary, and that the only recourse we have is trust in his wisdom.

...


I've had a bad feeling about this for a while. Personally, I don't think Chimpy Inc. will go quietly. I guess the upside of the Iraq War is that with all our National Guard troops over there, there aren't enough here for Bush to effectively declare martial law.
