Impeachable Treason


"... when a long train of abuses and usurpations ... evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

- Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration Of Independence

Bush Duplicity On Climate Crisis Revisited:
"President Bush's decision to abandon his campaign pledge to limit carbon dioxide emissions was routed through a key Bush aide who had lobbied for one of the world's largest manufacturers of automobile exhaust systems ... Calio and Chadwick also lobbied for Arco (n.b. - now owned by BP), formerly one of the country's largest oil companies and one with strong ties to the Bush family ... Arco has a long history with the Bush family and benefited from a provision inserted by former President George H.W. Bush into the Clean Air Act ... George H.W. Bush had worked hard, though unsuccessfully, to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling. ... George W. Bush has made it clear that he favors his father's policy. The majority of Arco's oil reserves were in Alaska."
