"Four days later, upon his return home, John was arrested again. This time, on phony criminal charges contained in a 14-count felony complaint for aggravated stalking against a victim the state has failed to produce.

"One is left to conclude that the "victim" is one George W. Bush. If so, that means that Buchanan's Constitutionally protected right to politically challenge a fellow Republican has been deemed "stalking.""What you can do to help impeach, remove and indict the gang of murderous criminals who have seized control of the OUR government:

How to Get Your Town or City to Indict Bush and CheneyIndictment resolutions passed on March 4, 2008, in Brattleboro and Marlboro, Vermont, and spread from there. For full list of towns see this list.

This resource page will be expanded as this campaign grows and develops. This extensive kit for passing impeachment resolutions will be helpful. Much of the same advice applies.
We can begin with the example of Brattleboro, Vermont, which voted on and passed this question on March 4, 2008:
"Shall the Selectboard instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities, and shall it be the law of the Town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro police, pursuant to the above mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro if they are not duly impeached, and prosecuted or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them?"
For help in placing similar language on the ballot in your town or in passing a similar measure through your city council, contact Dan DeWalt: patrioticresponse@yahoo.com
For legal expertise on the force of these initiatives, contact Harold Burbank at haroldburbank@cmcast.net

About the Brattleboro Indictment Resolution:

At first glimmer, the article (the "Indictment Resolution") that will appear the ballot on this Tuesday - the article which, as you know, has been eliciting many different reactions from townspeople - was a largely symbolic gesture, something conceived of as a "container" for the moral outrage that Americans justifiably felt. It was born simply out of the devastating realization that our Constitution and entire system of government were - and still are - under assault, and that such extraordinary circumstances sometimes call for extraordinary measures. But we soon learned that the initiative also had real legal teeth.

OUR CONSTITUTION

Our constitution does not mention signing statements but does contain the veto power.

Our constitution does not mention executive privilege which is used to obstruct justice in the murder of Pat Tillman.

Our constitution does contain the law "shall impeach" six times for good measure.

And as far as Bush being a devout christian what is said in the bible about 'You shall know them by the fruits they bear"?

Execitove privilegen and other right wing fairy tales...

Indeed, the right wing mentality has proven itself resourceful if dishonest and intellectually challenged. It seems to me that "executive privilege" was an invention of Richard Nixon's 'administration' --though it may have had earlier origins. Certainly---until someone like Scalia falls for it, it remains a cruel fraud.

The same things goes for a panoply of right wing fairy tales that are, these days, the result of study by consulting firms and focus groups. There is, after all, no point in inventing crap full cloth unless it can be sold. That's what the right wing has always done. They were called carpet baggers during the reconstruction and they are still carpet baggers and snake oil salesmen.

"There's something that must be finished............

before they leave office"...............honestly speaking, (1) the people should refuse to vote any further for a New President (2) the people should call off this Presidential Election, (3) leave Bush Administration where they are until this indictment/impeachment momentum overwhelms them (4) then the people can handcuff them and take them away (5) then the next round of candidates from the President's seat to the tea boy in Congress would get the message..........."Don't screw around with our Rights and our Constitution"........

Bush and Cheney will not be exempt

from investigation and prosecution after they leave office.

Exemption from prosecution

You can count on Bush to 'pardon' Dick. Would he try to 'pardon' himself?

Don't try it

Don't even think about trying to harass Republicans - or any other elected official - at their home or any place else. Anybody who does that deserves a "vacation" in the steel bar hotel.

These people are not murderers, no matter how many times that lie gets repreated. And isn't it ironic (hypocritical) that a real murderer gets quoted in this article? (I'm talking about Che Gueverra, of course).

ROTFL!

These people are not murderers, no matter how many times that lie gets repreated.

So if, for example, Saddam Hussein had launched an unprovoked attack on the U.S., and your family was killed in the process, that would be ok with you, right? You would agree that "[Saddam Hussein is not a] murderer, no matter times that lie gets repeated".

Murderers

The war on Iraq was, indeed, mass murder. Material support for that war could get you in a place in the dock at the international court despite Bush's efforts to place himself and his complicit gang members above the law. Clue: Bush is NOT above the law nor his gang of cutthroats. An indictment against GWB has already been drawn up by a former US atty; all it needs is ONE courageous federal judge to bring charges against Bush for violations of US laws...and, as I recall, a similar indictment is all but prepared in Europe with respect to war crimes, crimes against humanity and crimes against the peace --all of which are based upon treaties to which the US is bound. These are principles which the US, itself, has insisted upon at the end of World War II.

So, yes, we are talking about murderers, war criminals and assorted crooks--no better than the gang of Nazis who wound up in the dock at Nuremberg.

Please explain to us your definition of murderer

Let's clarify this important point. Do you mean a person who directly causes the death of another human being outside of the context of a formally declared war? Or a war for "higher ideals"? (Obviously I mean right wing ideals.) I believe that would absolve Osama bin Laden, unless there is history about him that I haven't heard. Like "terrorist," this emotionally charged word has different meanings depending on who is using it and for what purpose. What about law? Can anyone offer a legal definition of "murderer"?

Che

I am only sorry I didn't have space to quote more from Che's classic: Principles of Guerilla Warfare.

Clearly --Che was in agreement with our own founders as well as Thomas Jefferson. Indeed, the leaders of the American revolution were considered "murderers" by the regime of King George. Benjamin Franklin, himself, raised the possibility that he and his fellow 'patriots' might 'hang'.

worse than "something in the air"

Everyone needs to get the DVD "ENDGAME"..filmed by Alex Jones. It will clear up exactly how and why we have been manipulated. Just google the word "ENDGAME". Knowledge is power and we sure need some of that. It is not fiction. It's not a movie. It is fact. It will connect the dots for sure.

The U.N.

The United Nations has declared the Iraq invasion illegal. The U..N. is a higher authority than D.C.-though D.C. doesn't think so. When the U.N. gets its way, whether Buch and Cheney are in office or not, this picture will be fulfilled.

It is unstopable. And it will fulfill Isaiah 24:21-24 where the kings of the earth are thrown in jail. Then Isaiah 23:17-18 will be worked out, and the profits of this earth will be spread out to those who need them most. Then I hope we can have that big party of Isaiah 25:6-9

War criminals, murderers, torturers, international criminals

Michael,

Thanks for the link to the pic...it's a great visualiztion tool: the gang of four behind bars, awaiting sentence. Clearly --an open and shut case can be made now that all four depicted --plus numerous 'enablers' in both administrations --should be tried in US courts for capital crimes, violastion of US Codes. Then they should stand trial in the Hague for violations of those principles of International Law that the US is still bound despite Tom DeLay's efforts to raise Bush above the law.

Bush is a murderer and should be indicted and tried

Patricia, I was concerned about George W. Bush's intentions and those of his murdererous regime when Tom DeLay introduced legislation which authorized Bush to wage war on the Netherlands should the IC ever indict Bush, Cheney or other members of his administration for war crimes. The GOP controlled congress, of course, passed the measure but its Constitutionality is suspect. Moreover, US Codes, title 18, Section 2441 --despite Alberto Gonzales' transparent and disingenuous openion to the contrary --is still the law of the land. It makes violations US international obligations which result in deaht, subject themselves to the death penalty.

Bush's transparent efforts to bypass Congress and place himself above US laws are, in my opinion, speak to his motives and his intentions. The history of those overt efforts to subvert the rule of law will be admissible when he is tried for capital crimes in a US court. An indictment against Bush and Cheney has already been prepared. All it needs, under US law, is a single Federal Judge who can, upon his/her own motion, convene a Federal Grand Jury.

Visualize this war criminal sitting in the dock, accused as he should be, of capital crimes.

In the meantime, read my article:
