13. Like us, they see crimes being committed and are doing what they can to shout about it.

I'll pass this on and not forget about looking for updates.

3. Link here

<snip>
So far, Vermont is the only state Bush hasn't visited since he became president in 2001.

Daims said the most grievous crime committed by Bush and Cheney was perjury — lying to Congress and U.S. citizens about the basis of a war in Iraq.

He said the latest count showed a total of 600,000 people have died in the war.

Daims also said he believed Bush and Cheney were also guilty of espionage for spying on American people and obstruction of justice, for the politically generated firings of U.S. attorneys.

6. Well, I guessed war crimes, but c'mon do you think any law

enforcement officer has the guts to arrest those two numnutz? And not end up in Gitmo?

It's a fantastic thought, but it's not going to happen. Unless some a la 'White Nights' occurs.

12. Bush has visited his buddy Mayor Daley many times

He's in Chicago a lot. People get angry when politicans visit since they tie up traffic, etc. It cost the tax payers big time.

11. For Our Legal Scholars?

What is the legality of such a law and more important enforcement of that law? If they put out warrants for their arrest can't any state/county/local police force arrest them and have them extradited?
