arrested

U.S. Senate candidate Laurie Dobson wants the Kennebunkport Board of Selectmen to indict President BushLaurie Dobson, an independent candidate for the U.S. Senate, doesn’t want President Bush or Vice President hanging around her neighborhood. If they come to Kennebunkport, she wants them arrested.

It sounds pretty outlandish at first. But Dobson has developed a plan to have them indicted in her town for war crimes. She said she’s consulted with her lawyer, and it’s legal.

Brattleboro, Vt. is doing it too.

Kennebunkport is home to a compound belonging to former President George H. W. Bush.

Dobson will file a formal writ of indictment next Tuesday at Kennebunkport Town Hall. It will go before the town’s Board of Selectmen. If they pass it, the indictment will go before voters.

“Our nation has reached a point where it is imperative for us to take action to hold this administration accountable,” Dobson said in a release. “The Constitution gives citizens the right to pursue these war criminals and bring them to justice.”

The indictment reads: “Shall the Kennebunkport Board of Selectmen instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution, and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities, and shall it be the law of the Town of Kennebunkport that the Kennebunkport Police, pursuant to the above-mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George W. Bush and Richard Cheney in Kennebunkport if they are not duly impeached, and prosecute or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them.”
