I'm no fan of GWB, but this seems a little tasteless

It would certainly be a criminal production in England if it related to our own Head of State. Our current law on the matter is the Treason Act of 1351, 25 Ed III c2, "A Declaration, Which Offences shall be adjudged Treason" and reads:Auxint perceo que diverses opinions ount este einz ces heures qeu cas, quant il avient doit estre dit treson, & en quel cas noun, le Roi a la requeste des Seigneurs & de la Commene, ad fait declarissement que ensuit, Cest assavoir; quant home fait compasser ou ymaginer la mort nostre Seigneur le Roi [...] doit estre ajjuge treson que sestont a nostre Seigneur le Roi et a sa roial majeste.

whereas divers opinions have been before this time in what case treason shall be said, and in what not; the King, at the request of the lords and of the commons, hath made a declaration in the manner as hereafter followeth, that is to say; when a man doth compass or imagine the death of our lord the King [...] that ought to be judged treason which extends to our lord the King, and his royal majesty.

Just so you understand clearly Pinks. We're talking about George Bush, not Kate Bush
