Impeach Bush Petition
I was delighted to learn, a few minutes ago, of the petition below: better late than never. Although I do keep in mind and savor the possibility of a future arrest (like that of John Bolton attempted by George Monbiot), it would be healthier for the U.S. to start recognizing its own trespasses.
Unfortunately, this petition was designed without ex-pats in mind, so I can't fill all the required fields without a little perjury (the list of States includes American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, and Palau, but not "overseas," "in a foreign country," or "elsewhere").
If you can fill the required fields, and agree with the accusations and that they should be prosecuted, please go to http://kucinich.us/ and add your endorsement before Wednesday (hmmm, was that yesterday, or do we have until next week? Another comm failure, I'm sorry to note).
WHEREAS, in his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed abuses of power.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that President George W. Bush has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as President and Commander in Chief, and subversive of constitutional government, to the prejudice of the cause of law and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States and that he be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors.
