President for Life

Hmmm....remember the running meme on many leftwing sites that BushHitler would refuse to leave office after his term expired (not clear through what means: military coup? reichstag fire?). Well, Bush is gone, but I don't remember any Republican congressmen introducing any measures similar to this House resolution proposed by Rep. José Serrano [D-NY16]:

H.J. Res 5: Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article of amendment, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President.


And the only president to actually serve more than two terms was, correct me if I'm wrong, a Democrat. I think the Bush meme was, what the psychologists call, 'projection'.
