The Patriot Act makes it a felony to disseminate or provide false information about 'terrorism'. The Bush administration is built around the lies Bush tells about 'terrorism'. All are felonies under Bush's own Patriot Act!
As Bush never told the truth about 911, al Qaeda, or the phony 'war on terrorism', then any one of his many lies chosen at random should send his sorry ass to GITMO. As Bush has falsely characterized the 'war on terrorism', any lie supporting it violates the Patriot Act. Exquisite justice! Exquisite irony! William Shakespeare could not have done a better job! Bush is stuck on his own flypaper!
The Misprision of Felony strategy for impeachment using the prosecutorial provisions of the USA Patriot Act, using the powerful discovery articles associated and the unlimited prosecutorial tools included with the USA Patriot Act, (and FISA continuation of that body of law), can discover that the CIA tapes of high level terrorist suspect detainees were destroyed in an effort to conceal.
The CIA destroyed the tapes to conceal them from government offices, but most importantly you. [See: Destruction of CIA interrogation tapes may conceal government crimes] The law doesn't protect you from concealment, only your government. Brilliance and great care coupled with great knowledge of the USA Patriot Act body of law will make some prosecutor extremely famous, I wish Bugliosi would get a clue. Any person who is indicted under the felony provisions of the USA Patriot Act will be terrified. People get stupid when they are afraid, when they are terrified. Would you like to see bush and cheney terrified, trembling, scrambling, sweating, branded as un-American? The USA Patriot Act is your law and it is the only law that will terminate this un-American administration.
--Applying the USA Patriot Act to Articles of Impeachment for bush.That the US is waging a war on terrorism is Bush's biggest lie about terrorism.
The global war on terror is about confronting terrorist groups and the nations that harbor them. The United States does not make deals with terrorists or nations where they find safe lodging.
Leave aside the blind eye that the U.S. has always cast toward Israel's actions in the territories. How are the Bushmen doing elsewhere vis-à-vis their announced principles?
--Bring 'em On!
Does Bush have a defense? Let him tell it to the judge. Bush, of course, denies you that right!
It is said by propagandists for Bush's illegitimate administration that 'terrorists understood the value of systematic gathering and analysis of information for their deadly acts'. That should apply to Bush as well.
A captured Al Qaeda training manual stressed "gathering information about the enemy, the land, the installations, and the neighbors;" disseminating false information ("spreading rumors and writing statements that instigate people against the enemy"); carrying false identity cards, passports, and other documents; and deliberate but cautious use of modern information systems ("duration of transmission [on facsimile and wireless] should not exceed five minutes in order to prevent the enemy from pinpointing the device location").3 They communicated over the Internet, exploited lax United States requirements to obtain key documents (such as visas and social security cards), carefully moved funds through special banks known as hawalas (that are not closely regulated and create few records), and coordinated so thoroughly that each of the four hijacking teams had its own ATM card with a single PIN.4
--Information and the War on Terrorism
If it should turn out that Bush faked this so-called 'manual', then Bush goes to GITMO! If it should turn out that Bush lied about 'terrorism', Bush goes to GITMO. If it should turn out that the 'war on terrorism' is itself a panoply of lies, then Bush gets to go on a long vacation at GITMO.
"Iraq has trained Al Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gases."
--Bush, October 2002.
Various 'official' versions of 'al Qaeda' are unsupported by hard evidence. If any one of them is false, Bush goes to gitmo!
Let's get down to some specific lies that Bush has told --lies that will send him to GITMO.
The invasion of Iraq was based on a reasonable belief that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction that posed a threat to the US, a belief supported by available intelligence evidence.
Bush told the nation that Saddam supported terrorists and terrorism. Bush did not tell where, when and how? Bush told us that the war against Iraq was a part of the nation's 'War on Terror'. It wasn't!
Later, Bush lied when he denied saying that the war on Iraq was a part of the 'global' war on terror. A summation of the prosecution will charge that Bush deliberately misled the nation about Iraq's alleged 'terrorist' role. Either the Iraq war was or it was not a part of the war on terrorism. It cannot be both ways. In one case or the other --Bush lied about terrorism. He gets to go to GITMO!
Saddam tried to buy uranium in Niger.
To help support global terrorism we were supposed to conclude. Again ---Bush's lies gets him free transportation to GITMO!
Now --if Bush were telling the truth that the war against Iraq is a part of the war on terrorism, then his statement about 'uranium' in Niger is, therefore, a lie about 'terrorism'! Guess what! BUSH GOES TO GITMO!

Because nobody, save Dennis Kucinich, is willing to take Bush on for all of his crimes the corporate empire will rewrite history, making him a hero of our nation.
Mark my word....look how they have already epitomized Ronald Reagan and just what did he do? It was so you did not have to even listen to one of his speeches because the corporate propagandist would tell you "what he meant to say" after it was finished. He is now an icon.
Bush, too, will be placed on that same level. Having brought our nation to a fascist state, he may well be "billed" as the The Father of Our New Nation"....don't laugh, cringe.

That's what 'they' want us to think! I call it the 'hologram', perhaps the 'Wizard of Oz' effect. Just pull the curtain and the whole fraud is revealed, the whole rotten edifice comes crashing down. Clinton was despised not because he got a blow job, but because he was not the machines first choice of 'hologram'. This axis of evil consists of the MSM, the MIC, the CIA. It will one day become the victim of its own evil. Because of this venal 'establishment', the dollar is all but worthless, the US has been a net debtor nation since 1989, and the American military has bankrupted the treasury. Rome fell. The US is on the precipice.
Our grandchildren will see Bush as a hero but only if 'they' get to write the history, if the truth is allowed to be dropped down a memory hole. Resist the memory hole! Write, lobby, organize, radicalize, and scream bloody murder! Jacob Bronowski wrote: "Behave in such a way that what is true can be verified to be so!" Thus, the liars of Bush's regime epitomize evil. Truth is the only antidote!
I pose a question – What GOOD might have these dead done in OUR WORLD had they lived out their lives...doctors, poets, fathers & mothers, scientists, teachers?
Is not the world poorer and more cynical because of their loss?When will we value life and the lives of others?
I hear Bush is concerned about his legacy.Well, Iraqis are concerned about his lunacy.The NeoCon policies have destroyed their country, their culture, this generation's lives.Because of the use of DU, maybe ALL future generations in the Middle East will curse U.S.
This was never a defensive war for the USA, it has been an Offensive War and an Occupation.It doesn't matter to this generation's dead Iraqis and the countless shattered still-living souls how OUR war was packaged and sold.Too many feckless fools still "think" we have and are doing the Iraqis a favor – we've handed them FREEDOM.
The bUSH Brand of FREEDOM exudes the putrid smell of death wherever it is spread.This is as plain as the smirk upon his face.Let's give Credit where credit is due.bUSH's NeoCon group gets a Twofer --they've destroyed another entire people and country while hollowing out Freedoms at home, the economy, our children's futures, and I don't need to list the rest.
Who has profited -- Who has lost?Simple question.The answer is NOT "blowing in the wind".
You can't package death and poverty like a Gift and expect "Flowers & Garlands & Thank-Yous".No, it is and will remain clear to all with a clear mind that the bUSH administration and NeoCon agenda operated in Fear and created Heartache and Pain.
People will wonder in amazement and contemplation of WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN DONE with the Money and Energy had it been used for POSITIVE applications in This World at This Time.

The case against Bush shapes up daily! This CRIMINAL administration is guilty of war crimes punishable by death. See US Codes, Title 18, Section 2441.
This administration has deliberately planned to perpetrate acts of mass murder at home, and capital war crimes abroad.
At this point WE have much more than mere 'probable cause' to indict several members of the Bush administration in connection with the above mentioned crimes, we have substantial hard evidence --perhaps enough to secure a conviction.
There is a growing international movement to bring these criminals to the bar of justice.
More about that later ...
I urge everyone to organize locally to secure as much information and evidence against this gang of criminals. Every neighborhood should have 'truth cell'' for sharing information, evidence, news, and plans.
