Some Stanford Faculty, Staff, Alumni and Students want Condi investigated
This came in from ImpeachBush@VoteToImpeach.org aslo known as IndictBushNow.org

The investigation and prosecution of Bush era officials must inevitably lead to Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice and other high officials.

When she was confronted by a student questioner last week, Condoleezza Rice defended torture with these words: “ definition, if it was authorized by the president, it did not violate our obligations under the Convention Against Torture.”

That argument will never hold up in court and it is not holding up with Stanford Alumni and students either. They nailed a petition to the door of the president of the university that read:

“We the undersigned students, faculty, staff, alumni, and other concerned members of the Stanford community, believe that high officials of the U.S. Government, including our former Provost, current Political Science Professor, and Hoover Institution Senior Fellow, Condoleezza Rice, should be held accountable for any serious violations of the Law (included ratified treaties, statutes, and/or the U.S. Constitution) through investigation and, if the facts warrant, prosecution, by appropriate legal authorities.”

Bush's Hall of Shame
George W. Bush raised $100 million in the 100 days since he left office for his presidential library. He and his cronies are racing to remake his legacy and fend off prosecution for his crimes. With your help, we will stop him.

Please make an urgently needed donation to help this movement continue to grow.

This is part of the swelling grassroots movement for prosecution. The people, young and old, are taking action. This will create an irresistible political force.
