17. + Bomb Threat -- TERRORIZED the nation with "Mushroom Clouds in 45 min"
Edited on Sun Apr-23-06 01:19 AM by pat_k
Great compilation! Printed to read more closely later.

"They terrorized us" is something I'd like to see forced into the echo chamber. Lying is too tepid a label for their acts.

They TERRORIZED the American people with the most colossal bomb threat in history (mushroom clouds in 45 minutes).

It all comes back to their treasonous exercise of unrestrained power.

For every abuse, national and international, they have sought cover in their so-called "theory" of urinary(1) authoriatarian executve power; the fascist fantasy that as long as they claim they are acting to "defend" us, they can violate our laws, commit international crime in our name, and corrupt our institutions to serve themselves.

Every time Bush, Cheney, or their minions invoke urinary authoritarian power as their get out of jail free card, they declare themselves traitors. This high crime subsumes all others. It's really all we need to force them from power tomorrow. Comprehensive investigation, congressional hears, and criminal prosecution in our courts and at The Hague can follow.

Whether or not we include their torture Gulags, their terroristic threats of Mushroom Clouds, their aggressive war, and the other crimes you capture in your articles of impeachment, we must keep it ALL on the radar in the court of public opinion. There is so much that it merges in to an inescapable black cloud that will drive away even their staunchest bootlickers.

(1) The right to piss down our backs and call it rain.

==============================================================================================

Although articles of Impeachment need not be violations of written law(2), there are plenty of such violations to chose from. Below is the list I emphasize. You have most covered, but feel free to adopt anything you like.

  • Violations of the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act -- U.S. Code Title 50, Section 1805

  • Violations of U.S. Code Title 18, Section 844 paragraph (e). Bomb Threat -- Whoever, through the use of the mail, telephone, telegraph, or other instrument of interstate or foreign commerce, or in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, willfully makes any threat, or maliciously conveys false information knowing the same to be false, concerning an attempt or alleged attempt being made, or to be made, to kill, injure, or intimidate any individual or unlawfully to damage or destroy any building, vehicle, or other real or personal property by means of fire or an explosive shall be imprisoned for not more than 10 years or fined under this title, or both.

  • Violations of U.S. Code Title 18, Section 35. Imparting or conveying false information (Bomb Hoax)

  • Countless acts of negligent homicide, criminal negligence causing bodily harm, and wreckless endangerment of the members of our armed forces.

  • In their failure to take even minimal steps to prevent the attacks of September 11th, they committed more than 3000 acts of negligent homicide and countless acts of criminal negligence causing bodily harm and reckless endangerment.

  • Violation of the Title 18 section 2441. War crimes

  • Violations of U.S. Code Title 18 in the 2000 and 2004 Presidential <s>elections, In particular:

    • Section 241, which makes it unlawful for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any citizen in the exercise of a right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States (including the right to vote in an election for President).

    • Section 594, prohibits the intimidation or coercion (e.g., 10-hour poll-tax lines) of voters for the purpose of interfering with the right to vote for a candidate for federal office. (This statute does not require violent intimidation.)

(2) Bugliosi includes a discussion of the types of crimes in None Dare Call it Treason. Unlike malum prohibitum (wrong because they are prohibited), malum in se (wrong in themselves) crimes involve morally reprehensible conduct that is wrong, often evil, even if there is no law against it. Bush and Cheney's treasonous claim that no law defined by others applies to them is such a crime. Congress never dreamed of enacting a statute making it a crime to steal a presidential election, but the five black-robbed robbers that handed down the Bush v. Gore edict are nevertheless criminal. After we force bushcheney from power, we can turn our attention to impeaching them (a posthumous impeachment for Rehnquist).
