Length: 10 hrs and 35 mins

Publisher's summary

Best-selling author Vincent Bugliosi has written the most important and thought-provoking book of his prolific career. In a meticulously researched and clearly presented legal case that puts George W. Bush on trial for murder after he leaves his presidency, Bugliosi delivers a searing indictment of the president and his administration.

With what he believes is overwhelming evidence that President Bush took the nation to war in Iraq under false pretenses - a war that has caused great loss of life, cost this nation close to $1 trillion, and alienated most of our allies in the Western world - Bugliosi argues that it is George W. Bush who must be held accountable for what Bugliosi considers to be monumental crimes.

In this groundbreaking book, Bugliosi, in his inimitable style, presents a powerful case against the man in the oval office.

Frighteningly Excellent

This book is brilliantly written and demands action. For too long I have felt like I must be the only one who cares about all the lawbreaking and murders committed by this administration. Thank goodness for Bugliosi!

very biased

in the first chapter of the book he talks about how it was inappropriate to have Bill Clinton face a senate hearing for inappropriate sexual conduct during his presidency. that's hilarious because I guarantee you if it were Trump you wouldn't be saying the same thing. I am not a Trumper or a right-wing individual but when I read political books I expect a fair and balanced view

Good premise. Too much filler.

I am in complete agreement with the premise of this book. However, it seems like the author's strong animosity towards Bush compelled him to go off on some tangents (e.g., attacking him for being a dope, a draft dodger, maladjusted social misfit, etc.). Of course, all these points have been made by others. The unique contribution of this book is the making of the case for serious legal action against Bush. I hope that doesn't get lost in the rhetoric.

Hung Jury

This heart of this book is contained primarily in chapter two, where the details of such a prosecution are revealed. This chapter is worth listening to in order to see how a prosecutor would question the witness, George W. Bush.

However, the rest of the book, chapter one and three, while largely valid, is composed of the author's rants which undermine the impact of his thesus.

That is, if we are to believe that a prosecution of any citizen is a non-partisan attempt to seek justice, why would we trust a prosecutorial perspective that blatantly reveals such personal bias against the defendant.

It seems that there are two books here, one titled "The Cross Examination of George W. Bush" and "I Hate Bush and So Should You."

I have no love for Bush, but this is not the legalistic, academic approach that I anticipated when purchasing this audio book.

Guilty as Charged!

I could have lived without the petty Bush bashing in the first three chapters. But Chapter 4 is a must read. The Bush administration's blatant manipulation of intelligence to scare us into war is criminal, and should be prosecuted. Wake up America. The King is NOT above the law, and must be prosecuted.

Too close to subject...

The author is a little to close to this subject and gets too carried away in my opinon. I do agree with him, but a little less passion might have served him well here.

Awesome but sad

I found this book to be so great, with the things that are going on today , this book is so relevant on so many levels. There were parts though that I felt really sad.

Well argued, insightful and thought provoking!

This book is a must-read to all consciencious Americans, and students of logical thinking.

Bugliosi has built a tight, fact-based case against a criminal President.

The well-researched information provided in this book, supported by Bugliosi's experience as a successful prosecutor, helps elevate an average reader to the level of a critical observer.

I find my own evaluation and thinking (or lack thereof) of events post Sept 11 being challenged, and challenged well.

The audio is an interesting listen. The narrator does a great job presenting material. Not a moment of boredom.

Pray that this man never prosecutes you for murder

Bugliosi methodically builds his case against GW Bush for capital-one murder as well as destroys whatever credibility that Bush might claim as a human being. If I am to believe Bugliosi, and I do, then our President is shameless prevaricator, cheat, and a mass murderer; and he well deserves to be prosecuted for his crimes. Yes, call it what it is: "MURDER"!

Thank you Mr. Bugliosi

In addition to the case against Bush, Bugiosi details how people can be lulled into complacency by a national press that doesnt want to work very hard, and doesnt want to ask the difficult questions. The bigger the lie, the easier it is to sell. Even when the truth is obvious, Americans subconciously fill in the blanks with what the president wants us to think. The grand illusion was teaching us to fool ourselves. For example, if WMD was the reason to invade Iraq, Iran all along has been building a nuclear program and they make no bones about the fact they wish to blow Israel off the map. What about those WMD's?? It will take years for most American people to come to the realization of the depth of Bush's ineptitude, carelessness and depravity, because we are trained to think the president isnt like that, so we build up an artificial image in our own minds.
