The Prosecution Of George W. Bush for Murder by Vincent Bugliosi

With respect to the position I take about the crimes of George Bush, I
want
to state at the outset that my motivation is not political. Although
I've
been a longtime Democrat (primarily because, unless there is some
very
compelling reason to be otherwise, I am always for "the little guy"),
my
political orientation is not rigid. For instance, I supported John
McCain's
run for the presidency in 2000. More to the point, whether I'm giving
a
final summation to the jury or writing one of my true crime books,
credibility has always meant everything to me. Therefore, my only
master and
my only mistress are the facts and objectivity. I have no others. This
is
why I can give you, the reader, a 100 percent guarantee that if a
Democratic
president had done what Bush did, I would be writing the same,
identical
piece you are about to read.
Perhaps the most amazing thing to me about the belief of many that
George
Bush lied to the American public in starting his war with Iraq is that
the
liberal columnists who have accused him of doing this merely make
this
point, and then go on to the next paragraph in their columns. Only
very
infrequently does a columnist add that because of it Bush should be
impeached. If the charges are true, of course Bush should have been
impeached, convicted, and removed from office. That's almost too
self-evident to state. But he deserves much more than impeachment. I
mean,
in America, we apparently impeach presidents for having consensual
sex
outside of marriage and trying to cover it up. If we impeach
presidents for
that, then if the president takes the country to war on a lie where
thousands of American soldiers die horrible, violent deaths and over
100,000
innocent Iraqi civilians, including women and children, even babies
are
killed, the punishment obviously has to be much, much more severe.
That's
just common sense. If Bush were impeached, convicted in the Senate,
and
removed from office, he'd still be a free man, still be able to wake
up in
the morning with his cup of coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice
and
read the morning paper, still travel widely and lead a life of
privilege,
still belong to his country club and get standing ovations whenever he
chose
to speak to the Republican faithful. This, for being responsible for
over
100,000 horrible deaths? For anyone interested in true justice,
impeachment
alone would be a joke for what Bush did.
