against the United States of America. 
In all of this, George Walker Bush has repeatedly and 
unapologetically misled the American people and has 
sought to undermine the system of checks and balances 
established by the Founding Fathers. Wherefore George 
Walker Bush, by such conduct, and in the interest of sav-

of arbitrary government, warrants impeachment and trial, 
and removal from office.
