GOP North Carolina Rep. Jones is a big fan of ‘The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder.’

Via Think Progress, Rep. Freedom Fries thinks Bush is a criminal:
The Washington Post reports that a “southern conservative congressman” is a big fan of Vincent Bugliosi’s best-selling book “The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder,” which makes the case that Bush should be held “criminally responsible” for the deaths of U.S. soldiers in Iraq. A “source close to the author” told the Post that the lawmaker is Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC), who famously coined the term “freedom fries,” but later became a critic of the Bush administration’s handling of the Iraq war. Jones told Bugliosi that he wants to lay low until the election, but afterward, would be “standing there by your side.”
"Lay low until the election." See, Walter, that's the problem. We won't consider impeachment, or an inquiry, or, well, anything until... well, maybe never. If Bush has committed war crimes, why wait? Would Rep. Freedom Fries wait if someone murdered his son or daughter?

Oh, I forgot, sometimes breaking the law is not a crime... but in this case, it's only until after the elections are over.
