[edit] Bush Crimes Commission

Delete

The "Commission" which is the topic of this page is not notable and does not rise to Wikipedia's standard for acceptability. This "commission" has no more credibility than a mock trial conducted in a law school class, or even in a high school social studies class.

The "indictments" hold no weight, and the supposed court has no jurisdiction to act on its "findings"

Many of the criticisms mentioned in the article are already raised in their respective articles about the specific issues.

Much of the rest of the article is filled with original research that is not cited.

A mention of this "tribunal" may be warranted under the listed sponsor Not In Our Name, but the Commission itself is not notable enough for its own article. RWR8189 08:58, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep I got 35,000 hits for this thing on Google. I'd rather we include it and tell people what it is rather than say nothing about it. –Shoaler (talk) 10:05, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

• Many hits perhaps, but confined almost exclusively to the echo-chamber of the leftist blogosphere. It warants no more than a mention in its parent organization's article. Also, there are only 144 unique hits on Google before similar pages are omitted.RWR8189 10:14, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. written with high level of POV and overstating the importance of this mock commission. Xtra 11:18, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and stub or fix POV problems. IMO putting a POV template on the article would be a better first step than AfD. --Craig Stuntz 15:46, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
