It's time for the American people and Congress to act. With so much at stake, we have a presdent whose administration stands out in its disdain for the rule of law. THE CASE FOR IMPEACHMENT explains the legal history and grounds for impeaching George W. Bush and brings forth more than half a dozen articles of impeachment the authors say could be introduced against him, including:
• Lying and manipulating Congress and the American people into an unjust war.
• Allowing his friends and business cronies to profit from the war in Iraq, which is not only a crime but tantamount to treason.
• Authorizing torture and rendition of prisoners of war and suspected terrorisrts – a complete violation of the Geneva Conventions, a treaty the United States has signed and is therefore part of our law.
• Stripping American citizens of many of their constitutional rights by authorizing such wrongdongs as: holding them with no charge, illegally wiretapping them, offering them no trial, and never allowing them to face their accusers.
• Failing in almost every way possible to defend the homeland.
Hard hitting and persuasive in its argument, this book says what we're all thinking about the Bush presidency. Author Dave Lindorff is an award-winning investigative journalist for more than three decades and has written for numerous publications including Business Week, Salon and The Nation.
