The scheme is described as an emergency "continuity presidency," made necessary by the extraordinary circumstances and unique challenges of protecting the United States from the threat of international terrorism.
"The world changed on 9/11," a confidential DoJ memo obtained by The Register explains, "and no Administration in US history is better suited to adapt productively to those changes than this one.

You mean to say that Dubya has an FDR complex too? Let's enummerate some of his complexes, shall we: messianic, pathological liar, dry drunk, dumb as a box of rocks, entitlement class, preppie frat-boy, screaming 'terrorist' in a theater, etc.
There is also a potential argument for a constitutionally legitimate 3rd term based on the fact that Bush was not "elected" for his first term; rather, was appointed by the Supreme Court.
Scary
