Who Killed Julius Caesar?

George W. Bush has committed hundreds of crimes while in office as President of the U.S.A. Aside from the Oil War and the obliteration of Constitutional law, perhaps Bush's most heinous single criminal act was ordering others to reveal the identity of a covert agent of the C.I.A., Valerie Plame Wilson.

Bush's co-conspirators include Karl Rove, VP Dick Cheney, Scooter Libby, Richard Armitage, Ari Fleischer, and Alberto Gonzalez – all are guilty of conspiracy and-or treason. Several journalists were involved – Bob Woodward, Walter Pincus, Judith Miller, Robert Novak, David Gregory – and their individual culpability ranges from bystander/victim to traitor.

The neo-fascist P.N.A.C. machine forced Armitage to confirm in September 2006 that he had revealed Plame's identity to Woodward in June 2003 and to Novak in July 2003, and thus he was first, though he may not have known that Plame was a covert agent. (Armitage is now a board member at the ConocoPhillips oil company, and also a lobbyist.)

The spin-meisters then spread the bogus excuse that since Armitage was the first conspirator to reveal Plame's identity, none of the other conspirators committed any crime.

Wrong. Very wrong.

(It is beyond tedious to have to refute each and every lame 'my dog ate my homework' excuse put forth from the P.N.A.C. machine, one after the other, ad infinitum, ad nauseum – but reality must be defended from the never-ending propaganda onslaught. These thousands of dastardly crimes demand prosecution.)

Caesar's Assassination
The assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar is the proper analogy for the outing of Plame.

The story that is taught as Official History is that Caesar was acting a lot like Dubya – they both match the definition of tyrant – and so about 60 members of the Roman Senate surrounded Ceasar and stabbed him to death on the Ides of March in the year 44 B.C.E. Historians seem to agree that Caesar's body sustained 23 stab wounds.

If there was a 'C.S.I.-Ancient Rome' team to examine the evidence, they would have had a tough time pinpointing which stab wound caused the death of Caesar. However, trying to name the one toga-draped politician who murdered Caesar is both futile and needless.

The fact is that each of the 23 politicians who were successful in stabbing Caesar committed an act of first degree murder, and the other 37 Senators aided and abetted (at minimum).

Back To Bush and PlameGate
Each and every neo-fascist string-puller or puppet committed an Act of Treason when they spoke the name of an active covert C.I.A. spy to any person who had neither proper security clearance nor a legitimate (U.S. national security-related) Need To Know.

• Plame's career at the C.I.A. was stopped dead in its tracks.
• Her brass-plate front company Brewster Jennings was closed down on the day that Novak's mentioned her name & job in his widely-syndicated column.
• Once the name and purpose of Brewster Jennings became public, foreign agents were tortured and killed, and others were placed in fear of discovery and subsequent execution for treason against their own country.
• Most significantly, Plame's operation for gathering intelligence on nuclear weapons and W.M.D. in the Middle East evaporated overnight – a boon to the war-mongers who reap profits from the Oil War in Iraq.

Who committed treason in the PlameGate event?
Dubya gave the order to Cheney, who passed that order on to Libby – per the memo in Dick Cheney's handwriting entered as evidence in the recent trial that convicted Libby of perjury. Armitage was merely the first to obey that order. Rove committed multiple acts of treason by speaking about Plame with several reporters. Novak committed treason twice: in revealing Plame's identity and job on 14 July 2003, and then again in revealing the existence and purpose of Brewster Jennings on 10 October 2003. (Miller and Pincus kept their mouths shut; both have had their reputations damaged; Miller lost her job.)

Just like the stabbers of Caesar, they all did the deed: Bush, Cheney, Rove, Libby, Armitage, Novak, Gonzalez and any other government official who gave out classified information for political retaliation against Ambassador Joe Wilson and his C.I.A.-agent wife.

Impeachment is way overdue.

President John McCain

On 29 January 2007, I. Lewis 'Scooter' Libby's lawyers admitted into evidence a note in Dick Cheney's handwriting stating that 'The Pres' gave the order to reveal covert C.I.A. agent Valerie Plame's identity.

{Déjà vu: Bush & Cheney & Rove & Libby & others committed crimes (including treason), and then botched the cover-up !!}

As Congress moves closer to voting to issue a multi-offense Bill of Impeachment:

First Option:
Bush 43 resigns in disgrace, and Cheney becomes President #44; Cheney appoints boot-licker Sen. John McCain as VP; Pres. Cheney then resigns, setting up President #45 McCain to run in 2008 as incumbent.

Second Option:
Cheney resigns in disgrace, and Bush appoints boot-licker McCain as VP; Bush 43 then resigns, setting up President #44 McCain to run in 2008 as incumbent.

NOTE 1: Candidates for McCain's VP include 'Traitor Joe' Lieberman, Condi Rice, and Mitt Romney.
NOTE 2: McCain won't be able to wait until after the November 2008 election to pardon Bush, Cheney, Rove et al, and doing so before the election will deliver the Presidency to the Democrat.

Martial Law?

Whether today's national election restores Constitutional rule or not may be moot.

If the Democrats win enough seats in Congress to reorganize with themselves as the majority party, there is still something like 60 days before that happens.

Dubya has enough followers behind the fascist P.N.A.C. agenda that he might be fool enough to declare martial law across America before January. Whichever way the election goes: if the Dems win, Dubya is in a corner; if the G.O.P. wins, the fascists have free rein. Any excuse, such as an airplane hijacking or truck bombing, up to Pearl Harbor Three, is all Dubya needs – as his only possible escape from impeachment and charges of treason, illegal spying, war profiteering, embezzlement, and a string of further felony crimes.

The key element here is Karl Rove's promise of 'boots on the ground' during the 72-hour lead-up to Election Day 2006. Rove reported sending 13,000 loyal 'field workers' to deliver Republican voters to precinct sites in Montana. Someone on progressive talk radio remarked yesterday that Montana doesn't have that many hotel rooms!

So what if 'boots on the ground' is literal? Let us not forget the Halliburton-built concentration camps: good locations for housing and feeding – and arming? – a legion of brownshirt minions. Scattered across America, some in every state, ready to fan out once martial law is declared.

Sure hope that this prediction fails to come true ...
However, "the price of freedom is eternal vigilance," and America has not been vigilant.

Bush 43 is 'The Toxic President'

•• He increased the National Debt by 49% – a dollar amount larger than the prior 42 presidents combined.

•• He has destroyed America's reputation as any kind of Beacon of Freedom.

•• The entire world is mad at the U.S.A. for starting the War in the Middle East.

•• He refuses to comply with the Kyoto Treaty, and in fact supports pollution at every hand.

•• The average worker earns less, healthcare is a farce, and corporate executives are over-paid pirates.

•• War-profiteering abounds, and money for Katrina relief went to corporations – NOT to residents of the Gulf Coast.

•• The treasonous act of outing Valerie Plame and Brewster-Jennings destroyed the C.I.A.'s trust among the intelligence community.

•• Felonious wire-taps and secret data-mining schemes cause fear of expression among all Americans.

Regime change in November 2006 !!
Impeachment starts in January 2007 ...
