The Patriot Act makes it a felony to disseminate or provide false information about 'terrorism'. The Bush administration is built around the lies Bush tells about 'terrorism'. All are felonies under Bush's own Patriot Act!
As Bush never told the truth about 911, al Qaeda, or the phony 'war on terrorism', then any one of his many lies chosen at random should send his sorry ass to GITMO. As Bush has falsely characterized the 'war on terrorism', any lie supporting it violates the Patriot Act. Exquisite justice! Exquisite irony! William Shakespeare could not have done a better job! Bush is stuck on his own flypaper!
The Misprision of Felony strategy for impeachment using the prosecutorial provisions of the USA Patriot Act, using the powerful discovery articles associated and the unlimited prosecutorial tools included with the USA Patriot Act, (and FISA continuation of that body of law), can discover that the CIA tapes of high level terrorist suspect detainees were destroyed in an effort to conceal.The CIA destroyed the tapes to conceal them from government offices, but most importantly you. [See: Destruction of CIA interrogation tapes may conceal government crimes] The law doesn't protect you from concealment, only your government. Brilliance and great care coupled with great knowledge of the USA Patriot Act body of law will make some prosecutor extremely famous, I wish Bugliosi would get a clue. Any person who is indicted under the felony provisions of the USA Patriot Act will be terrified. People get stupid when they are afraid, when they are terrified. Would you like to see bush and cheney terrified, trembling, scrambling, sweating, branded as un-American? The USA Patriot Act is your law and it is the only law that will terminate this un-American administration. --Applying the USA Patriot Act to Articles of Impeachment for bush.
That the US is waging a war on terrorism is Bush's biggest lie about terrorism.
The global war on terror is about confronting terrorist groups and the nations that harbor them. The United States does not make deals with terrorists or nations where they find safe lodging.Leave aside the blind eye that the U.S. has always cast toward Israel's actions in the territories. How are the Bushmen doing elsewhere vis-à-vis their announced principles?--Bring 'em On!
Does Bush have a defense? Let him tell it to the judge. Bush, of course, denies you that right!
It is said by propagandists for Bush's illegitimate administration that 'terrorists understood the value of systematic gathering and analysis of information for their deadly acts'. That should apply to Bush as well.
A captured Al Qaeda training manual stressed "gathering information about the enemy, the land, the installations, and the neighbors;" disseminating false information ("spreading rumors and writing statements that instigate people against the enemy"); carrying false identity cards, passports, and other documents; and deliberate but cautious use of modern information systems ("duration of transmission [on facsimile and wireless] should not exceed five minutes in order to prevent the enemy from pinpointing the device location").3 They communicated over the Internet, exploited lax United States requirements to obtain key documents (such as visas and social security cards), carefully moved funds through special banks known as hawalas (that are not closely regulated and create few records), and coordinated so thoroughly that each of the four hijacking teams had its own ATM card with a single PIN.4 --Information and the War on Terrorism
If it should turn out that Bush faked this so-called 'manual', then Bush goes to GITMO! If it should turn out that Bush lied about 'terrorism', Bush goes to GITMO. If it should turn out that the 'war on terrorism' is itself a panoply of lies, then Bush gets to go on a long vacation at GITMO.
"Iraq has trained Al Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gases."--Bush, October 2002.
Various 'official' versions of 'al Qaeda' are unsupported by hard evidence. If any
one of them is false, Bush goes to gitmo!
Let's get down to some specific lies that Bush has told --lies that will send him to GITMO.
- The invasion of Iraq was based on a reasonable belief that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction that posed a threat to the US, a belief supported by available intelligence evidence.
Bush told the nation that Saddam supported terrorists and terrorism. Bush did not tell where, when and how? Bush told us that the war against Iraq was a part of the nation's 'War on Terror'. It wasn't! Later, Bush lied when he denied saying that the war on Iraq was a part of the 'global' war on terror. A summation of the prosecution will charge that Bush deliberately misled the nation about Iraq's alleged 'terrorist' role. Either the Iraq war was or it was not a part of the war on terrorism. It cannot be both ways. In one case or the other --Bush lied about terrorism. He gets to go to GITMO!- Saddam tried to buy uranium in Niger.To help support global terrorism we were supposed to conclude. Again ---Bush's lies gets him free transportation to GITMO!
Now --if Bush were telling the truth that the war against Iraq is a part of the war on terrorism, then his statement about 'uranium' in Niger is, therefore, a lie about 'terrorism'! Guess what! BUSH GOES TO GITMO!- The aluminum tubes were proof of a nuclear program
To put a fine point on it, that statement may or may not be only about 'terrorism'! But --hey --let's send Bush to GITMO! I hear the whistle a'blowin! - The CIA was primarily responsible for any prewar intelligence errors or distortions regarding Iraq.
Well --that's a no brainer! As the CIA is demonstrably the world's number one terrorist organization, Bush settles in for a long vacation in an orange suit! GITMO! - The US wants democracy in Iraq and the Middle East.
And wages a war of 'terrorist' tactics to do it! Certainly --Bush had to murder folk to set them free! More lies! Bush goes to GITMO!
Andy Ostroy has prepared quite a nice list of Bush's numerous lies. You sort out which ones are most likely to get Bush to GITMO:
Let's review Bush's impact since 2000 at home and abroad, in no particular order:
1. Lied about WMD.
2. Unilaterally invaded a sovereign nation without provocation and justification.
3. Lied during State of the Union speech re: Niger Uranium.
4. Responsible for pre-9/11 intelligence failures in White House, CIA, FBI.
5. Allowed 9-11 murderers to remain free while diverting precious military and financial resources to his vanity war in Iraq.
6. Lied about Saddam/bin Laden connection.
7. Turned Iraq into a terrorist breeding ground.
8. Lied about nation-building.
9. Opposed creation of 9-11 Commission and Homeland Security Department.
10. Disrespected and alienated the US from French, German and other key allies.
11. Lied to Americans about the real cost of war.
12. Fostered an environment of torture at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo.
13. Lined Halliburton's pockets in Afghanistan and Iraq with fat no-bid contracts.
14. Under-manned and under-equipped our armed forces in Iraq, resulting in unnecessary death and injuries.
15. Ignored the nuclear build-up in both Iran and N.Korea; marginalized Kim Jong Il.
16. Shunned Kyoto Treaty.
17. Lied about effects of man-made pollutants on the environment to support corporate pals.
18. Lied about the insolvency of Social Security.
19. Gave huge cuts to the wealthiest taxpayers.
20. Lied about true cost of health care bill.
21. Lied about Free Trade stand.
22. Bitterly divided the nation along religious, party and sexual preference lines.
23. Guilty of numerous cronyism appointments (Homeland Security, Supreme Court, etc)
24. Rewarded failures of Condi Rice and other cronies with key promotions.
25. Dreadful energy policies lead to record gas and oil prices.
26. Responsible for the largest debt in US history.
27. Colossal failure of preparedness, rescue and relief during Hurricane Katrina.
28. Fostered a culture of corruption among GOP and top leadership (Tom Delay, etc).
29. Allowed Donald Rumsfeld to keep job despite utter failure in Iraq.
30. Presided over the US's lowest popularity throughout the world.
31. Saw No Child Left Behind fail.
32. Lied last week about Iraqi troop strength during Saturday radio address. Directly contradicted by testimony given earlier in the week by Gen. Abizaid.--The Ostroy Report
Under the terms of the Patriot Act --any lie about terrorism will get Bush the long vacation that he richly deserves. I am told that Cuba is a lovely country. But Bush won't see much of it from his tiny cell. He will be fashionably attired! In an orange suit!

And yet, despite all the lies, the media, even at times the 'alternative' media, continue to view 'information' the administration puts out as credible. By now we should know that anything this administration says should be assumed to be false, and probably opposite to the facts, until proven otherwise.

I rarely find anything credible in the MSM anymore. And long ago stopped watching the so-called 'evening news'. It's surprising that anyone gets the truth anymore.
Let us enjoy the internet! As soon as the big money finds a way to control it, our ability to expose their bullshit will simply be absorbed into a 'corporate brainwash web'.
"Mr. Bush Goes To Gitmo." Now there's a documentary I would give almost anything to see!
They communicated over the Internet, exploited lax United States requirements to obtain key documents (such as visas and social security cards).
We still have the myth of the stealth terrorists operating under the security radar. Nothing could be further from the truth. 15 of the 19 hijackers obtained their visas through the Jedda consulate in Saudi Arabia. Michael Sprinmann (also here), former head of that office, has declared that the consulate was run by the CIA in order to bring Islamists into the US. They did not meet entrance eligibility requirements. Further, Mohammed Atta entered and left the US three times despite being on a terrorist watch list and despite the CIA knowing that he had tried to purchase explosive chemicals in Germany. He was also being monitored as part of the Able Danger program.
Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed explains:
In summary, despite being well known to authorities, Mohamed Atta seems to have led a rather charmed life...He had been under surveillance by US agents between January and May 2000 due to his suspicious purchase of large amounts of chemicals, which might be used to make explosives. In January 2001 he was detained by INS agents at Miami International Airport for 57 minutes due to previously overstaying a visa and failing to produce a proper visa to enter the US to train at a Florida flight school. But that did not stop him. Despite the FBI’s longstanding concern that terrorists might be attending flight schools in the US, Atta was allowed to enroll in the Florida flight school. By April 2001, he was stopped by police for driving without a license. He failed to show up in court in May and a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. But that did not stop him either, because the warrant was never executed—although he was subsequently arrested for drunk driving on two more occasions. Throughout this period in the US, Atta never made any attempt to operate under an alias, traveling, living, and studying at the flight school under his real name. Stranger still, Atta was in regular email contact with current and former employees of major US defense contractors, as revealed by the regular email list of some 40 individuals he maintained, discovered by the FBI in September 2001. ...
They carefully moved funds through special banks known as hawalas (that are not closely regulated and create few records), and coordinated so thoroughly that each of the four hijacking teams had its own ATM card with a single PIN.4
Complete bunkum. The financial links to the 911 terrorists is far more damning.
When Nawaf Alhazmi and Khalid Almidhar came to San Diego in Dec 2000 they were met at LA airport by Omar al-Bayoumi, a Saudi with close ties to the Saudi Royal family and Prince Bandar, Saudi ambassador to the US. He provided the terrorists with accommodation and helped them get social security cards and drivers licences. Al-Bayoumi was in almost daily contact with the Saudi embassy.
Two weeks after al-Bayoumi began assisting the two 9/11 hijackers, monthly cashier's checks totaling ten of thousands of dollars started coming to al-Bayoumi's wife. The checks were from Princess Haifa bint Faisal, the wife of Prince Bandar . Princess Haifa bint Faisal claimed she had no idea that the money was going to al-Bayoumi. The Princess' alibi was enough to satisfy the farcical 9/11 Commission and tug on the heartstrings of the gullible. According to her, the intended recipient of the cashier checks was Majeda Ibrahin Dweikat, a woman seeking monetary help to treat her thyroid condition. Majeda would receive the checks and then sign them over to al-Bayoumi's wife. So Majeda was the terrorist financier, not the poor, unsuspecting Princess Haifa or Prince Bandar.
The only problem is that Majeda's husband, Osama Basnan, was known to be a "vocal Al-Qaeda sympathizer". According to a law enforcement official, shortly after the 9/11 attacks, Basnan "celebrated the heroes of September 11" and referred to September 11 as a "wonderful, glorious day" . Basnan is also known to have "met with a high Saudi prince who has responsibilities for intelligence matters and is known to bring suitcases full of cash into the United States" . This all makes Princess Haifa and Prince Bandar's actions look less like charity and more like the financing of terror.
Various sources put Princess Haifa's payment figures at over $50,000. Moreover, Like Atta, Alhazmi and Almidhar were on a CIA terrorist watch list yet resided in San Diego under their own names and were listed in the phone book.
Mohammed Atta also received $109,600 into his Sun Florida bank account from a UAE account just a month before 9/11, reportedly authorized by General Mahmoud Ahmad, head of Pakistan Military Intelligence (ISI). In March 2002, US Secretary of Treasury Paul O’Neill visited Dubai and asked for documents on the $109,500 money transfer from Dubai and also asked UAE authorities to close down accounts used by Al Qaeda and affiliated partners like US-supported arms trafficker Victor Bout. The UAE complained about O’Neill’s demands to the Bush administration and Bush responded by firing Paul O'Neill in December 2002.
There was also a $70,000 money order payment to Atta from a Saudi source that was processed at a Venice Fla convenience store run by Makram Chams. The receipt was received as evidence by the 911 Commission. Chams was a friend of Mohammed Atta and Marwan al Shehhi while they were in Florida and they spent time together in rooms above his store which he abandoned following 911. Chams later turned up in Saudi Arabia working for US defense giant Titan Corp, and there are disturbing links between Chams and major drug trafficking by US right wing elements including a 5.5 ton cocaine haul captured in Mexico.
$50,000 + $100,000 + $70,000 = $220,000 from Saudi and Pakistan sources. The 911 terrorists had no need for "hawalas". They were a protected species with access to the best banking available.

Len,
The problem with this form of communication is that I do not know if you are aware of my posts. Especially, since it is posted the day after your post.
A post from ‘at-largely’ had a curious link in it and I only followed it this morning. The post was about the raid on Blackwater’s armory in North Carolina.
Following the link, I come to an article on Spartacus;
Barry Seal, the son of a candy wholesaler, was born in Baton Rouge on 16th July, 1939. Seal's father was a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
….
Tosh Plumlee claims that Barry Seal began working for the Central Intelligence Agency in the mid 1950s: "Barry Seal was involved with military intelligence in the early days... Military intelligence was the real game, with the CIA just acting as logistical people. Barry was a peripheral player back then, but he was a CIA 'contract' pilot all the way back to 1956 or 1957."
….
On 1st July, 1972, Barry Seal was arrested in New Orleans and accused of sending C4 explosives to anti-Castro Cubans in Mexico. A DC-4 was seized at the Shreveport Regional Airport loaded with almost seven tons of plastic C-4 explosives, 7,000 feet of explosive primer cord and 2,600 electric blasting caps. James Miller, Richmond Harper, Marlon Hagler and Murray Kessler were also arrested with Seal. Kessler's partner, Manny Gambino, was kidnapped around the same time the others were arrested. His corpse was later found in a New Jersey garbage dump.
The DC-4 was owned by James Boy, a known associate of the CIA. Boy's aircraft were later used to fly Oliver North's mercenaries in and out of Honduras. The man who organized the entrapment of Seal and his friends was Cesario Diosdado, an official with the United States Customs.
…….
By 1982 Barry Seal was bringing in drugs to the United States on behalf of the Medellin Cartel. Seal moved his base of operations from Louisiana to Mena, an obscure airport in the secluded mountains of western Arkansas. Seal told friends that he once made $1.5 million on a single cocaine flight. Seal worked directly for Sonia Atala, the CIA protected drug baron (Michael Levine, The Big White Lie: The CIA and the Cocaine/Crack Epidemic). It is also claimed that Seal's fleet of planes to ferry supplies to Contra camps in Honduras and Costa Rica. His planes also made return trips to airstrips in the mountains of Colombia and Venezuela. According to Roger Morris (Partners in Power): "His well-connected and officially-protected smuggling operation based in Mena accounted for billions in drugs and arms".
Seal also obtained two new multi-million dollar Beech Craft King Air 200s. According to Daniel Hopsicker, these aircraft were purchased by a Phoenix-based corporation that acted as a "front" for John Singlaub. This company also owned Southern Air, a CIA proprietary connected to William Casey, Richard Secord, Felix I. Rodriguez and George H. W. Bush.
…..
In December 1984, Seal was arrested in Louisiana after flying in a cargo of marijuana. After paying a $250,000 bond, Seal was released and returned to drug smuggling. In return Seal provided information that resulted in the US government obtaining 17 criminal convictions. According to Daniel Hopsicker: "Seal told investigators that between March 1984, and August 1985, he made a quarter-million dollars smuggling up to 15,000 kilos of cocaine while working for the DEA, and another $575,000 when the DEA let him keep the money from one shipment."
Barry Seal appeared before Judge Frank Polozola in Baton Rouge on 20th December, 1985. Found guilty of two drug felony convictions, Seal was sentenced to six months supervised probation. A condition of the sentence was that he had to spend every night, from 6.00 p.m. to 6.00 a.m., at the Salvation Army halfway house on Baton Rouge's Airline Highway strip. Judge Polozola barred him from carrying a gun or hiring armed guards. Barry Seal told his friends "they made me a clay pigeon".
Barry Seal was asked by his close friend, Rene Martin, if he feared being killed by the Ochoa family. Barry Seal replied that he was not afraid of the Colombians because he had not implicated senior members of the organization. Seal was more worried about his contacts within the US government. This view is supported by Lewis Unglesby, Seal’s lawyer. He confirmed that the man Seal was willing to testify against was George H. W. Bush.
On 19th February, 1986, Barry Seal returned to his Salvation Army hostel at 6.00 p.m. As he parked his white Cadillac he was approached by a man carrying a machine-gun. Two quick bursts hit Seal's head and body. . . . .
Miguel Velez, Luis Quintero-Cruz and Bernardo Vasquez were found guilty of Barry Seal's murder and sentenced to life terms without parole. The official story was that Jorge Ochoa had murdered Seal in order to stop him testifying at his U.S. trial. Yet Ochoa never stood trial in the U.S. Nor did Seal appear to be afraid of Ochoa. His concern was with George H. W. Bush and the CIA. For example, Barry Seal's secretary, Dandra Seale (no relation) does not believe the Medellin Cartel carried out the assassination. "The CIA people here allowed it to happen. He had a chart, he had dirt on anybody and everybody."
Further evidence comes from Dee Ferdinand. She told Daniel Hopsicker that her father, Al Carone, was a CIA paymaster and a Colonel in Army Intelligence, had been sent to Dallas to pay off Jack Ruby before the assassination of John F. Kennedy. She also claimed that 33 years later Carone performed the same function for the killing of Barry Seal. According to FAA investigator, Rodney Stich, Carone was Oliver North's bagman.
Richard Sharpstein, defense attorney for one of Seal's assassins, Miguel Velez, says: "All three Colombians who went on trial always said they were being directed, after they got into this country, on what to do and where to go by an ‘anonymous gringo,' a US military officer, who they very quickly figured out was Oliver North,"
There was apparently another reason why George Bush wanted Seal dead. According to friends, Seal had a copy of a videotape of a 1985 DEA cocaine sting which had netted George Bush's two sons, George and Jeb, picking up kilos of cocaine at a Florida airport.

The article is worth a read in it’s entirety.
If this article be true, I think we can see how Dumbya supported his drug addiction and add another crime to his credit.
I think you can also add George H W Bush and Ollie North to your collection. Murder, or accessory to murder has no statute of limitations. In fact, Ray Guns whole murderous crew probably belongs on death row.
Damien writes of Atta attending flight school in Florida before 9/11. This has always struck me as not irrelevant. My uncle made a great deal of money working for the FAA, tax free, training and licensing pilots for commercial air liners in Saudi Arabia. There was no reason for the highjackers to come to America to learn how to fly Cessnas.
Houston, we have a problem.
When cheney and the CIA forged documents that provided false information on terrorism, (documents forged to indicate a connection between Alqaeda, Saddam Hussein and 911), cheney and the CIA colluded in felony violation of the USA Patriot Act.
Cheney is in felony violation of the USA Patriot Act.
It is a felony violation of the USA Patriot Act to provide false information on terrorism.

Indeed, he is ...but it remains to be seen if this country has the stomach to hold this gang accountable. If it does not, the rule of law will have lost any meaning whatsoever.
Long before Bugliosi wrote his most recent book, even before I began this blog, I has posted on numerous forums that Bush had committed capital crimes and could be indicted by ANY federal grand jury that had the courage to take on a rogue President.
I have also been urging that a courageous Federal Judge convene a Federal Grand Jury (which he/she can do upon his own motion) for the purpose of investigating the panoply of egregious that may be charged Bush/Cheney et al.
Thanks for your comment and brining this specific 'count' to our attention.
