Ex-Prosecutor’s Book Accuses Bush of Murder

[helderheid]

Vincent Bugliosi, a former Los Angeles prosecutor with a perfect record in murder convictions, and a respected crime author, builds a case for murder against President Bush for the deaths of Americans in Iraq.

Published: July 7, 2008

As a Los Angeles county prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi batted a thousand in murder cases: 21 trials, 21 convictions, including the Charles Manson case in 1971.

As an author, Mr. Bugliosi has written three No. 1 best sellers and won three Edgar Allan Poe awards, the top honor for crime writers. More than 30 years ago he co-wrote the best seller “Helter Skelter,” about the Manson case.

So Mr. Bugliosi could be forgiven for perhaps thinking that a new book would generate considerable interest, among reviewers and on the broadcast talk-show circuit.

But if he thought that, he would have been mistaken: his latest, a polemic with the provocative title “The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder,” has risen to best-seller status with nary a peep from the usual outlets that help sell books: cable television and book reviews in major daily newspapers.

Internet advertising has been abundant, but ABC Radio refused to accept an advertisement for the book during the Don Imus show, said Roger Cooper, the publisher of Vanguard Press, which put out the book.

ABC Radio did not respond to a request for comment.

1. Why would the media want to talk about it?

They're the accomplices.

[LakeSamish706]

2. Yes they are the accomplices, and they should be tried as such. n/t

5. Went to hear him speak recently... best night I've had in YEARS!

I love the fact that he is rising on best seller lists DESPITE
the MSM black out on that very fact AND the book.

I'd LOVE to see O'Lielly have him on-
But we know cowards are not capable of
debating actually truth tellers.
AND O'Lielly KNOWS Bugliosi would SHRED his
lame ass in seconds.

Good news is, C-Span taped the night I saw him, so hopefully
a FEW Americans will catch that broadcast...
BTW- for those who have not read the book;
you MUST.
His case and evidence is air tight legally-
thus the black out.
Even the dimmest freeper could not acknowledge
the validity of the case.

[helderheid]

14. WOAH is that FREE???

[BeHereNow]

16. I don't think so-

I think it is an ordering page?

17. I'm downloading part 1 now at no charge - weird! I think I'll stop and buy it - he needs to know we

support him!

20. Warning: It will make your blood pressure sky rocket.

I can only read a small portion at a time.
It infuriates me like nothing before it has.
It should be mandatory reading for every
citizen in the US.
Especially those who think their government
gives a crap about our troops.
BHN

[BeHereNow]

22. Yes! DO support the sales, helps it rise to the best seller status it deserves.

Let's see how long the MSM can ignore the FACT that it is
among the top sellers.
BWAHAHAHAHA!
GO Bugliosi!

24. I'm ON it! Price: $24.47

[BeHereNow]

18. I just looked at it again, and perhaps it is free? Like a Limewire share?

I noticed it also had a "buy now" link to Amazon?
Hell, give it a shot!

8. I'm listening to a sample right now - WOW!!

[BeHereNow]

10. See post #9- I found you a link to an audio seller of the book.

Must have- either in paper or audio.
Just GET it!

13. hard to believe the lengths to which corporations will STILL go to protect their boy.

[BeHereNow]

15. Seen the Freeper thread on the book??? Further evidence that none of them can read.

Lot's of predictable sound bites, but clearly NONE of them have
actually read the book.
No matter though to them.
They reduce everything to Bill O'Lielly sound bites.
It's not like they have actually READ the book themselves,
they are just automatically experts on it.
Idiots, shameless of exhibiting their willful decision
to remain IGNORANT and yet vocal about something
they have not bothered to read.
Are we surprised?
Not.
If they would READ the book, maybe they
would reconsider sending their young to die
in Iraq...oh, that's right, they prefer sending OTHER
people's children to die.

19. I think Bugliosi should team up with these guys

John Dean
Jonathan Turley
Bruce Fein

21. You left out Francis Boyle!

He is supporting and speaking about Bugliosi's case/book too!
The more legal experts we have commenting on the
soundness of the case under THE LAW (remember the days of law and justice in this country?)
the better!
