MMFA: Fox News contributor Sarah Palin claimed that gasoline prices have doubled since President Obama took office because the administration is “decreasing the amount of energy in our market domestically.”
In fact, this claim has already been debunked by energy experts, and even those who disagree with Obama’s energy policies have said that it’s simply not accurate to blame those policies for the current spike in gas prices. [ READ MORE ]

Bush’s criminal intent that needs to be shown, malice aforethought, could be proven by demonstrating that Bush took American soldiers to war with “reckless and wanton disregard for the consequences and indifference to human life.” Bush did not act in defense of the nation in starting the war, knowing all too well that Saddam Hussein was no threat to this country, and had no role in the attacks of 9/11 — Vincent Bugliosi, Former Prosecutor and Author of: The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder (Vanguard Press, 2008)
[ Enlarge Picture ] Dan Spielberg: In his book, The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder (Vanguard Press, 2008), Vincent Bugliosi, the man who successfully prosecuted Charles Manson for murder, argues convincingly that President George W. Bush’s conduct in taking the U.S. military to war against Iraq under false pretenses in March of 2003 qualifies him to be prosecuted for murder in any state in the nation. The victims in the case would be all the soldiers from that state that were killed in the war against Iraq.
He lays out his case in a devastatingly logical and methodical manner, weaving together all the relevant facts to paint the definitive portrait of just how reckless and criminal was the behavior of President Bush in his push for war against Saddam Hussein’s Iraq.
Famous for his true crime books, such as the book about Charles Manson that launched his literary career, Helter Skelter, Bugliosi shows us that he is still in fine form.
The legal definition of murder, as Bugliosi tells us, is “the unlawful killing of a human being with malice aforethought.” Under the law, for there to be a true crime committed the two elements of a prohibited act (actus reus) and criminal intent (mens rea) must coexist in time. According to Bugliosi’s legal argument, Bush’s act in this case would be his sending U.S. troops to Iraq, resulting in the death of some 4,000 of them.
The criminal intent that would need to be shown, malice aforethought, could be proven by demonstrating that Bush took them to war with “reckless and wanton disregard for the consequences and indifference to human life.”
The only legal defense that could be mounted against charges like this would be that Bush acted in defense of the nation.
In order to prove that Bush did not act in defense of the nation in starting the war, knowing all too well that Saddam Hussein was no threat to this country, and had no role in the attacks of 9/11, Bugliosi takes us on a painful walk down memory lane. [ READ MORE ]
George W Bush turns down job offer from Dallas hardware store
The Telegraph, UK — Mr Bush walked into an Elliott’s Hardware store on Saturday and quipped: “I’m looking for a job.”
He had been offered a position as a greeter by the owner of the chain in an open letter in a Dallas newspaper last month.
The tongue-in-cheek appeal appeared in The Dallas Morning News and its commuter-oriented sister publication, Quick.
Andrea Bond, a manager at the store, said Mr Bush spent about an hour with his secret service security detail shopping and talking to customers during the surprise visit. He bought a few flashlights, batteries and a can of rust-removal spray. He also bought night lights.
But despite having a bit of free time, and not having yet found a publisher for his memoirs, the former president turned the job down.
Mr Bush and his wife, Laura, moved into a home in the Preston Hollow area of Dallas on Friday.
