Reno lawyer attempting to sue President Bush over Iraq war
A retired Reno attorney is attempting to sue President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney over the war in Iraq.

Attorney Doug Wallace says he filed the suit in US District Court last Friday. His suit alleges that the president and vice president have acted outside the scope of their jobs in waging a war against Iraq.

Wallace claims the two entered into a private treaty without the approval of Congress.

Wallace's complaint alleges that Bush, Cheney and Defense Department employees have covertly implemented a plan to dominate the world, outerspace and "Cyberspace." He says the plans call for fighting wars against Iraq, Syria and Iran as well as firing nuclear rockets from spy satellites, "to suppress any challenge to US global domination."

1. I'll say they "acted outside the scopes
of their jobs"..they had to do a little dirty outside business to sell the murikens on the invasion of Iraq. Just like they are selling the Social Security Scam.

2. Ha! The man wants Bush/Cheney to give us our money back for
the cost of the war.

Wonder why this attorney filed this suit. He may just be pissed off seeing Bush/Cheney break so many laws and get away with it.

Clinton - try to keep him distracted from the business at hand.

13. Wish he'd lose the,"If god is with us..." line
"Gott mit Uns"? Also, has anyone been able to access the complaint? I gave up trying to download it after about 20 minutes.
