The title is breathtaking...
Crooks and Liars:
Vincent Bugliosi, the American attorney best known for prosecuting Charlie Manson, is releasing a new book next week, titled The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder, in which he argues that, well, the title kinda gives it away.
HuffPo has an exclusive excerpt:
HuffPo has an exclusive excerpt:
If Bush, in fact, intentionally misled this nation into war, what is the proper punishment for him? Since many Americans routinely want criminal defendants to be executed for murdering only one person, if we weren’t speaking of the president of the United States as the defendant here, to discuss anything less than the death penalty for someone responsible for over 100,000 deaths would on its face seem ludicrous.** But we are dealing with the president of the United States here.
On the other hand, the intensity of rage against Bush in America has been such (it never came remotely this close with Clinton because, at bottom, there was nothing of any real substance to have any serious rage against him for) that if I heard it once I heard it ten times that “someone should put a bullet in his head.” That, fortunately, is just loose talk, and even more fortunately not the way we do things in America. In any event, if an American jury were to find Bush guilty of first degree murder, it would be up to them to decide what the appropriate punishment should be, one of their options being the imposition of the death penalty.

Yes SPB even more information is coming out about how the US/Saudi were the one's who planned the 9/11 attack. Some Americans will believe the lies because it's to painful to know the truth. Most of the soldiers I spoke to already said the Iraq invasion wasn't about Iraqis it was about oil. But I must say the White House did a great job at playing the American people for fools. So much more will come to light and even death isn't enough for Bush/Cheney. Our soldiers died for oil greed of the White House and I must say the American people helped.
Is the US better off because we are at war? Are we winning the war on terror? Do people in the US feel safe?
Now most people are too worried about keeping their job, keeping their lights on and feeding their children.
The latest news shows people are selling all their possesions, family heirlooms etc just to pay the bills.......word has it that's where this economic stimulus plan is going, for the electric, the gas, etc. not being pumped into the economy.
