The Vail Spot: It's All Bush's Fault, From the Denver Post

No one provokes me with impunity

If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

It's All Bush's Fault, From the Denver Post

Here's an opinion piece by Chuck Green who writes "Greener Pastures" for the ~~Denver Post~~ Aurora Sentinel...one of the more liberal papers in the country. Additionally, Mr. Green is a life long Democrat...so this is rather a stunning piece...

I've tried to find a link to the Post's site archives...but it doesn't seem to exist...big sigh.

UPDATE: The article comes from the Aurora Sentinel of Aurora, Colorado. Thanks for the link. Instalanche! Thanks Glenn!
