President Bush is indeed a scumbag. He needs to be brought to justice one way or another. Here are some of the crimes he has committed..
US Law Concerning War Crimes
TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 118 > §§ 2441
§§ 2441. War crimes
(a) Offense.—— Whoever, whether inside or outside the United States, commits a war crime, in any of the circumstances described in subsection (b), shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term of years, or both, and if death results to the victim, shall also be subject to the penalty of death.
(b) Circumstances.—— The circumstances referred to in subsection (a) are that the person committing such war crime or the victim of such war crime is a member of the Armed Forces of the United States or a national of the United States (as defined in section 101 of the Immigration and Nationality Act).
(c) Definition.—— As used in this section the term ““war crime”” means any conduct——
(1) defined as a grave breach in any of the international conventions signed at Geneva 12 August 1949, or any protocol to such convention to which the United States is a party;
(2) prohibited by Article 23, 25, 27, or 28 of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV, Respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land, signed 18 October 1907;
(3) which constitutes a violation of common Article 3 of the international conventions signed at Geneva, 12 August 1949, or any protocol to such convention to which the United States is a party and which deals with non-international armed conflict; or
(4) of a person who, in relation to an armed conflict and contrary to the provisions of the Protocol on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Mines, Booby-Traps and Other Devices as amended at Geneva on 3 May 1996 (Protocol II as amended on 3 May 1996), when the United States is a party to such Protocol, willfully kills or causes serious injury to civilians.
George Bush President of the United States has committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:
1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of hundereds of thousands of Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.
2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.
3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.
4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.
5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.
6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnaping, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions on governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.
8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.
9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."
10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.
11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.
12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.
13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.
14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.
15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.
16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."
17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.
18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.
19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.
20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.
Not to mention he was complicit in the Terror Attacks of 911 and he lied through his teeth about Saddam's WMD.
However there is hope.....
Over 30 Towns in the State of Vermont have filed impeachment resolutions against Bush and it’s spreading like wild fire! People are kicking this campaign into HIGH GEAR! Signs and banners are being constructed nationwide for the convergence on the State Capitol! This could be the long awaited revolution the American People have been waiting for since Bush took office.
The George Bush impeachment movement has arrived, it’s picking up momentum and just in time for the March 17 rally at the Pentagon. Here’s the best part! You don’t have to travel all the way to D.C. to perform your Patriotic Duty to America. There will be hundreds of impeachment protest happening across the Nation. Los Angeles is having a massive protest Saturday, March 17th 2007 at Noon.
These are just a few of the locations....
To find a location nearest you..Google. ‘United for Peace : Events’
I support our troops 100% and it’s time to bring them home!!!
As Americans it is time to make our stand to protect the Constitution and Fundamentals of what this Great Country was founded on. We can Bring George Bush to justice just like Scooter Libby.
Thank you...together we can make a difference... happy protesting!

I dislike President Bush as much as anyone. But that is no reason for me to wish that he be killed. I haven't seen that question, but the person who actually posted such a thing could be in BIG trouble.
I am almost sure that Yahoo, if asked, would provide the real name and location of the offender to law enforcement officials.

Uh, no. Thinking something can't possibly be a crime -- how could a thought be proved?
Advocating it, planning it -- those will get you in trouble.
If you saw a post on this site advocating assasinating the President, then click Report Abuse.

well, defiantely report them!! i guess they must be on drugs or something!! Bush IS doing the best that he can, and the only ways America can get worse s if Hillary Clinton becomes president!( that's when i move to Canada!) Bush can only do what he is allowed to do. There are many steps on how something can be done, it has to go through the senate, congress, cabinet, house of r, and many many many other things.

Yes, well that's the censor's jobs on here to report what they feel are real threats to the authorities....and don't think they wont...and yes it's a crime to threaten anyone's life let alone the president.
It's also a crime to represent yourself as something you are not by putting a title on yourself when you are not deserving of it...it's called FRAUD.

Yet liberals find that accpetable in their mind because they are talking about Bush.
If a conservative would say that about a liberal like Hillary it would be story #1 on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR, etc etc for weeks. Calling for a major investigation of hate crimes.
That is being a hypocrite but liberals don't know any other way.
For the thumbs down people let me ask you this compare the outrage over Ann's comments compare to that of Bill Marher's.

Also, this same guy came back with another question about how it was a joke and that we all need to get a sense of humor.
I did not just report him to Yahoo, I also sent an email to these guys. Maybe if enough people do it, they will hunt this guy down and let him know what a sense of humor is.

Thinking it is not a crime - YET - but yes, saying it is. Fine line between freedom of speech, and prison isn't it!

In the united states you're supposed to have the freedom of speech--but in the last seven years we have lost almost all of our freedoms. It's not a crime until they find the president dead.

Sorry lady - But if they were to put everyone in jail that thought that Bush should be "done away with" - there would not be anyone running around in our society!
They would all be in Jail!
