United States v. George W. Bush et al.
Elizabeth de la Vega with Garrison Keillor

Elizabeth de la Vega talks about her book, "United States v. George W. Bush et al.," at an event hosted by Common Good Books in St. Paul, Minnesota. In the book, Ms. De la Vega presents a fictional indictment of President Bush and members of his cabinet for the way they sold the invasion of Iraq to the American public. She charges them with "conspiracy to defraud the United States." Garrison Keillor, who owns Common Good Books, makes opening remarks.

Elizabeth de la Vega is a former federal prosecutor and was an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Minneapolis. She was also a member of the Organized Crime Strike Force and Branch Chief in San Jose, California. The author has been a regular contributor to TomDispatch.com since her retirement in 2004.
