Rosemarie Jackowski, the Liberty Union Party’s candidate for Vermont Attorney General has called for the indictment of President Bush for war crimes related to Iraq. Referring to the efforts as “The Indictment Project,” Jackowski makes the case that her race is of pivotal importance to Vermonters interested the prosecution of the present administration:
Imagine Nuremberg in the Green Mountains. Imagine hundreds of indictments all across the country. Approximately one thousand public officials have the legal authorization to bring forth an indictment – fifty State Attorneys General, and nine hundred-fifty county prosecutors. No criminal action can be brought by a private citizen. The citizen’s power to act is limited to the voting booth; therefore, the most important vote cast in the upcoming election will be for the candidate who is authorized to take legal action – your State Attorney General.
It is really very simple. Get the facts which are clearly laid out in ‘The Prosecution of George W. Bush’. Find a candidate who supports your view. Pull the correct lever. Get the popcorn ready. The war crimes trials will be televised.
