Dennis Loo and Elizabeth de la Vega: 'The Case Against Bush and Cheney'
— Capitola

7:30 p.m.
Capitola Book Cafe
1475 41st Avenue

Hear Dennis Loo, co-editor with Peter Phillips, of the book "Impeach
The President: The Case Against Bush And Chenney," and Elizabeth de la
Vega, the author of "United Sates v. George W. Bush et al." SBM's
Impeachment Study group is reading and discussing Dennis Loo's book.

"In her truly engrossing study, [de la Vega] conducts a hypothetical
but technically impeccable grand jury indictment. She marshals the
evidence to show that Bush et al. deliberately misinformed the people
about the reasons for our war against Iraq. It is much more powerful
than the 9/11 report. A tour de force.”—Chalmers Johnson (Blowback, The
Sorrows of Empire). The crime is tricking the nation into war, or, in
legal terms, conspiracy to defraud the United States. A veteran federal
prosecutor, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney, and a former member of
Organized Crime Strike Force and Branch Chief in San Jose, Elizabeth de
la Vega has reviewed the evidence, researched the law, drafted an
indictment, and presented it to a grand jury. If the indictment and
grand jury are both hypothetical, the facts are tragically real.

In the face of the threats the White House presents to civil liberties,
the Constitution, and international law, Dennis Loo’s persuasive
collection makes the case that a drastically different political
dynamic must be created right now. Contributors include Howard Zinn
Peter Phillips, Judith Volkart, Dahr Jamail, Greg Palast, Mark Crispin
Miller, and Michael Nagler. "An eye-opening, multi-layered indictment
of the lawless rule of the Bush White House reactionaries. A
well-edited, well-substantiated, a well-argued offering of hard-hitting
truths that can serve as a manual for political action." — Michael
Parenti, (The Culture Struggle, Superpatriotism).
