Report: Bush Has Violated 750 Laws
The Boston Globe has a report on President Bush's extraordinary power grab.

President Bush has quietly claimed the authority to disobey more than 750 laws enacted since he took office, asserting that he has the power to set aside any statute passed by Congress when it conflicts with his interpretation of the Constitution.

Among the laws Bush said he can ignore are military rules and regulations, affirmative-action provisions, requirements that Congress be told about immigration services problems, ''whistle-blower" protections for nuclear regulatory officials, and safeguards against political interference in federally funded research.

Here are a few:

1.) Deception of Congress and the American Public

Committing a Fraud Against the United States (18 U.S.C. § 371)

Making False Statements Against the United States (18 U.S.C. § 1001)

War Powers Resolution (Public Law 93-148)

Misuse of Government Funds (31 U.S.C. § 1301)


2.) Improper Detention, Torture, and Other Inhumane Treatment

Anti-Torture Statute (18 U.S.C. § 2340-40A)

The War Crimes Act (18 U.S.C. § 2441)

The Geneva Conventions and Hague Convention: International Laws Governing the Treatment of Detainees

United Nations Convention Against Torture, and Cruel, Inhuman and Degrading Treatment: International Laws Governing the Treatment of Detainees

Command Responsibility (for known illegal acts of subordinates in the military)

Detainment of Material Witnesses (18 U.S.C. § 3144)

3.) Retaliating against Witnesses and Other Individuals

Obstruction Congress (18 U.S.C. § 1505)

Whistleblower Protection (5 U.S.C. § 2302)

The Lloyd-LaFollette Act, or "anti-gag rule" (5 U.S.C. § 7211)



Retaliating against Witnesses (18 U.S.C. § 1513)


4.) Leaking and other Misuse of Intelligence and other Government Information

Revealing Classified Information in Contravention of Federal Regulations (Executive Order 12958/Classified Information Nondisclosure Agreement)

Statutory Prohibitions on Leaking Information (18 U.S.C. § 641, etc.)


5.) Laws Governing Electronic Surveillance

Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (50 U.S.C. § 1801, et seq.)

National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. chapter 15)

Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. § 222)

Stored Communications Act of 1986 (18 U.S.C. § 2702)

Pen Registers or Trap and Trace Devices (18 U.S.C. § 3121)


6.) Laws and Guidelines Prohibiting Conflicts of Interest (28 U.S.C. § 528, etc.)

George W. Bush and his associates caused the death of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians, Iraqi soldiers, and hundreds of American soldiers, caused the destruction of the infrastructure of a sovereign people, violated Generva Conventions and Nuremburg principles, committed war crimes and crimes against humanity, and violated international law, especially the Charter of the United Nations. Since the US is a signatory to most international laws, their ratification by the Senate has also made these laws, the law of the land. Therefore, George W Bush has violated numerous Federal laws. By fabricating or misrepresenting intelligence data on terrorism, such as WMD in Iraq, Top level officials of the Bush Administration, including Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Powell, Perle, Wolfowitz and other have committed FELONY CLASS violations of the U.S.A. Patriot Act and should be punished under their own creation.

Crime against peace.
War Crimes
Crimes against humanity
Treason
Murder (spifically 9/11)
Terrorism
and the List keeps growing.

What a question to answer...

What do you want us to do? Write a book? I think that list would exceed anything this entry form is prepared to accept. The crimes of George W(orthless) Bush will unfold in the future and this country will suffer for a very long time.

Decieving the country and the UN in the build up to the Iraq war.
Allowing(that is, not immediately condemning and rooting out) torture, indefinite detention, and other human rights abuses.
Attempting to centralize power on the executive.
Attempting to suspend habeus corpus.
Spying on citizens of the US with no warrant and no probable cause.
Branding those who don't fall into step with his flawed logic "unpatriotic" or worse, "comforting the enemy."
Jeopardizing our soldiers' and sailors' lives by keeping the worst SecDef in the history of the earth on the job.


You guys do realize that in the history books, you'll be known as the "Bush apologists" right? I swear this guy could eat a child on television and you would say it's because of Clinton's BJ.

Throw him and Cheney to the tribunals. there are an excellent variety of expenditures and witnesses. do not doubt that reality! Iraq change into under no circumstances our situation. This 6 year mistake change into Bush's revenge adversarial to Saddam Hussein. He cares no longer something about the folk of Iraq! no longer something! All he cares about is his position in heritage, the picture of alternative delusional, mentally sick creatures.

Well,Like Bill Clinton said:that depends on the meaning of is.Clinton had an affair with an intern and was impeached for it and put on trial.Bush said many times that Iraq had WMD. Now thousands of innocent people have died for that statement & billions of dollars spent.Go figure,that lie about his affair that only hurt Hillary,is more of a crime to Republicans than thousands of lives lost for no WMD.
