11. Vermont candidate to prosecute Bush if she wins

BURLINGTON, Vt. - Lots of political candidates make campaign promises. But not like Charlotte Dennett's.

Dennett, 61, the Progressive Party's candidate for Vermont Attorney General, said Thursday she will prosecute President Bush for murder if she's elected Nov. 4.

Dennett, an attorney and investigative journalist, says Bush must be held accountable for the deaths of thousands of people in Iraq — U.S. soldiers and Iraqi civilians. She believes the Vermont attorney general would have jurisdiction to do so.

She also said she would appoint a special prosecutor and already knows who that should be: former Los Angeles prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi, the author of "The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder," a new book.

"Someone has to step forward," said Dennett, flanked by Bugliosi at a news conference announcing her plan. "Someone has to say we cannot put up with this lack of accountability any more."

12. And when she's done with him.....

....can she please hand him over to the Hague for war crimes trials so he can receive the same justice that all other murderous dictators have? And pretty please can it be televised?

I think Cheney should definitely be sent over too.

13. when's the election?

this race it seems to me will be an excellent litmus test to see if the people are as invested in justice for the bushies as are most of us at DU.

14. Let's send money and make it a BIG issue?!!!!!!! I'm too irate about

the bailouts, and about a health related fight I am in with my "insurance" company to think too much about it up right now, but I see an opportunity to make a fine public point and a big stink.
