The thing that's most uppermost in my mind and will continue to be until I hit a brick wall is that I am dead serious, dead serious about going after George Bush, trying to get him into an American courtroom and prosecute him for what happened in Iraq.

The discrepancy or contradiction is the entire story. And being the entire story, it by itself discredits the entire twenty-six volumes of the Warren Commission. Nothing else has to be shown or even argued.

These people have elevated audacity to symphonic and operatic levels. The Florida Supreme Court relied on new law to resolve the election dispute down there.
Vincent Bugliosi
Image
The Florida Supreme Court wanted all the legal votes to be counted. The United States Supreme Court, on the other hand, did not want all the votes to be counted.

One thing I have seen over and over again in life is that there is virtually no correlation between intelligence and common sense. IQ doesn't seem to translate that way.
Vincent Bugliosi
Image
My only master, my only mistress are the facts and the evidence. So if I reach a conclusion, it's only because the evidence took me there.
Vincent Bugliosi
Image
I only form an opinion when I feel that I've done sufficient research and have sufficient access to information.

If you're honest with yourself, you're going to find out whether you truly love America, or whether your primary allegiance is to the Republican party.
Vincent Bugliosi
Image
