On Wednesday, famed Charles Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi spoke to a packed and enthusiastic crowd of more than 350 Angelinos about his new book, "The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder." While Bugliosi's talk will eventually appear on C-SPAN, you can view it first in its entirety below...
"In my book, "The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder," I present evidence that proves beyond all reasonable doubt that George Bush took this nation to war on a lie, under false pretenses, and therefore under the law is guilty of murder for the deaths of over 4,000 young American soldiers who died so far in this war."
Bugliosi began the evening by explaining to the Los Angeles audience that George W. Bush is guilty of murder, according to the law, if he brought the country to war under false pretenses. And Bugliosi emphasized the legal aspect of the case in order to fend off likely attackers:
"So although Bush supporters can argue that Bush should not be prosecuted because they don't think he did anything wrong, they cannot legitimately say that he should not be prosecuted if he has done what I say he did. To say that is to admit that you have no respect for our American system of justice and democracy and that you would prefer that presidents have the same rights as tyrannical dictators like Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Saddam Hussein."
Bugliosi had a similar answer for those who simply believe it is impossible to prosecute Bush for murder:
"There's this sense out there among many that prosecuting Bush for murder can't be done. Which is the equivalent of saying what - that he is above the law. That ordinary laws simply don't apply to him."
Bugliosi also had some special words for the American Right Wing which has expressed its disapproval with his book:
"The third group of people responding to my book is the nation's right wing. And they of course have contempt for me and my book. But whatever contempt they have for me, I can assure them and I can assure you I have much much much more contempt for them. There are no more repugnant, hypocritical and un-American -- and that's the word I want to emphasize -- un-American people in our society today than the right wing."
Bugliosi, however, made clear that this book was not political for him and even said he would have written the same book had Bush been a Democrat. So fair is Bugliosi that he even offers up some mitigating evidence for Bush and his co-conspirators:
"And there is one thing that I should probably say in partial defense of these people that goes in mitigation, arguably reduces their moral culpability. And what I'm talking about is that many of these people are incredibly stupid. And they make up for their stupidity by being extremely ignorant. And when you combine stupidity with ignorance that's a toxic combination."
Finally, Part 1 ends with the law:
"If a conspirator, or anyone for that matter, deliberately sets in motion a chain of events which he knows will cause -- that's the key word -- cause a third party innocent agent to commit an act, the defendant is criminally responsible for that act. Bush, in invading Iraq, caused Iraqis to kill American soldiers in much the same fashion that a person causes a gun to fire a bullet that kills someone by pulling the trigger."

Why does he not just do his legal duty just like in any other case when the law is broken and bring the alleged culprits in front of a judge and a jury for prosecution as to weather they would be guilty or not ; or are they immune or he does not know how to file a lawsuit? Why is he wasting time doing this song and dance with the net? oh I forgot he is trying to catch our fish with his book ! dang I am getting slow.
The Manson massacre occurred on August 9 the anniversary of the Manhattan Project in the year 1969 but in the anniversary of August 6 the United Nation placed an all trade embargo in 1990. It was for weapons of mass destruction on the anniversary of the Atomic Bomb. It killed 1.5 million Iraqis and most victims were mere children under the age of 5. It killed more people than the two Atomic Bombs. Vincent doesn't mention the genocide by the General Assembly. It was a silent war for 13 years.
