We're Fucked
Can the president use the military to kill his rivals or anyone else they choose? Sure!
Is it OK for the president to commit crimes? Of course, being the president of the United States apparently requires breaking the law!
To recap, we vote for president and the man who gets less votes still wins because of the electoral college. The president appoints some judges and the citizens have no say in those choices either. Then the supreme court decides our president is actually more of a king. What's next?

Mumia Abu-Jamal On Israel's War Against The People Of Gaza
"You are protesting against genocide, protesting against mega-violence, paid for, in large part, by American taxpayers who are buying the weapons used by the state of Israel to Punish the people of Gaza.
Notice I said, “Punish the people of Gaza.” This is not. In my estimation, a war between Hamas and Israel; it’s a war between Israel and the people of Gaza, The people of Palestine.
If eighty percent of your targets are not members of Hamas, then either you don’t know how to shoot, or you intend to hit what you hit, you intend to bomb what you bomb, you intend to kill who you kill."
Excerpt from Mumia Address to U Penn Students at the Palestinian Liberation Encampment

Bush Ducks Shoes
"CBS News RAW:" At a press conference in Baghdad with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, President Bush got a reminder of the fervent opposition to his policies when a Muntadar al-Zaidi, a correspondent for Cairo-based al-Baghdadiya TV, threw two shoes at his head.
As the first shoe was thrown at Bush, he said: "This is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, you dog." And with his second shoe, which the president also dodged, al-Zaidi said: "This is for the widows and orphans and all those killed in Iraq."
