[IFP endorses no candidates for federal political office. We support any call for accountability of all public office holders]
(Kennebunkport) Independent US Senate candidate Laurie Dobson has announced plans to file a formal Writ of Indictment against President Bush and Vice President Cheney next Tuesday, Feb. 26, at Kennebunkport Town Hall. If passed by the town’s Board of Selectmen, it could result in the arrest of Bush and/or Cheney if they visit Kennebunkport.
“Our nation has reached a point where it is imperative for us to take action to hold this administration accountable,” Dobson said. “The Constitution gives citizens the right to pursue these war criminals and bring them to justice. The federal government has been reluctant to do it. As a candidate for the US Senate, I feel I have a duty to pursue and present this indictment for the citizens of my town, the state of Maine, the entire country and the world my children live in.”
Dobson plans to file the Writ at Kennebunkport town offices on Elm St. next Tuesday “at high noon.” A brief news conference will immediately follow, at which time copies of the Writ and supporting legal opinions will be made available.
At 12:30 pm, a photo opportunity will be held with a backdrop of the Bush Estate at Walker’s Point, followed by interviews and a Q&A at 78 Old Cape Rd., Kennebunkport.
The Writ reads, in part:
“Shall the Kennebunkport Board of Selectmen instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution, and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities, and shall it be the law of the Town of Kennebunkport that the Kennebunkport Police, pursuant to the above-mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George W. Bush and Richard Cheney in Kennebunkport if they are not duly impeached, and prosecute or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them.”
If passed, Dobson’s initiative will be the second one of its kind. A similar indictment was recently passed by the Board of Selectmen in Brattleboro VT, and will be voted on in a townwide referendum on March 4.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! How pathetic!
Federals law trumps local laws.
