On Tuesday, March 28, the PRC will be hosting Professor Francis A.
Boyle,arguing "The National Case to Impeach President George Bush, Jr."
The event will begin at 7pm and will conclude with a discussion and a
question and answer session.

George Bush, Jr. was returned to the U.S. presidency by voters convinced
of his moral and leadership qualities. But his moral failures were
exposed through the Downing Street Memo's proof of systematic lying
concerning Iraq's possession of WMDs and their connection to al-Qaeda.
And now, his leadership on the domestic front has been proved to be
criminally negligent in response to the ravages of Hurricane Katrina.

Only impeachment offers Americans a swift and appropriate recourse!

George W. Bush must be impeached for lying in leading the nation to war
in Iraq. And President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Secretary of
Homeland Security Michael Chertoff must be impeached for denying Equal
Protection of the Laws to the Katrina Victims because of their economic
status and race, in violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to
the United States Constitution.

Francis A. Boyle is a leading American expert in international law. He
was responsible for drafting the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act
of 1989, the American Implementing Legislation for the 1972 Biological
Weapons Convention. He served on the Board of Directors of Amnesty
International (1988-1992), and represented Bosnia-Herzegovina at the
World Court. Professor Boyle teaches International Law at the University
of Illinois, Champaign. His books include "The Future of International
Law and American Foreign Policy" and "Foundations of World Order: The
Legalist Approach to International Relations 1898-1921." He holds a
Doctor of Law Magna Cum Laude as well as a Ph.D. in Political Science,
both from Harvard University.

This event is being cosponsored by: Activist Forum, Campus Greens,
Graduate and Professional Students of Color, Illinois Disciples
Foundation, National Organization for Women (UI Chapter), School for
Designing A Society, and Vietnam Veterans Against the War (CU Chapter).
