And Buchanan's worries quickly turned into a nightmare of serious legal proportions, being arrested on a bogus14-count felony complaint for aggravated stalking against a victim the state failed to produce.
A story appearing on August 14, 2004 had this to say about the Buchanan arrest:
Has Campaigning Against Bush Now Become 'Stalking'
"Four days later, upon his return home, John was arrested again. This time, on phony criminal charges contained in a 14-count felony complaint for aggravated stalking against a victim the state has failed to produce.
"One is left to conclude that the "victim" is one George W. Bush. If so, that means that Buchanan's Constitutionally protected right to politically challenge a fellow Republican has been deemed "stalking.""What you can do to help impeach, remove and indict the gang of murderous criminals who have seized control of the OUR government:
How to Get Your Town or City to Indict Bush and Cheney Indictment resolutions passed on March 4, 2008, in Brattleboro and Marlboro, Vermont, and spread from there. For full list of towns see this list\. This resource page will be expanded as this campaign grows and develops. This extensive kit for passing impeachment resolutions will be helpful. Much of the same advice applies.We can begin with the example of Brattleboro, Vermont, which voted on and passed this question on March 4, 2008:
"Shall the Selectboard instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities, and shall it be the law of the Town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro police, pursuant to the above mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro if they are not duly impeached, and prosecuted or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them?"For help in placing similar language on the ballot in your town or in passing a similar measure through your city council, contact Dan DeWalt: patrioticresponse@yahoo.com

At first glimmer, the article (the "Indictment Resolution") that will appear the ballot on this Tuesday - the article which, as you know, has been eliciting many different reactions from townspeople - was a largely symbolic gesture, something conceived of as a "container" for the moral outrage that Americans justifiably felt. It was born simply out of the devastating realization that our Constitution and entire system of government were - and still are - under assault, and that such extraordinary circumstances sometimes call for extraordinary measures. But we soon learned that the initiative also had real legal teeth.
