Who wrote that?

Michael Moore? Ted Kennedy? Ward Churchill? Some other far-left liberal pinko 'Murka-hating commie scum?

The Declaration of Independence - With a [Twist]
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men [and women] are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among [them], deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of [this Nation]; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present [president] is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

He has forbidden his [lackeys in Congress] to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

[snip]

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for [ensuring independence] of Judiciary Powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

[snip]

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

[snip]

For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of [Iraq, Afghanistan, and any other nation with dark-skinned people]:

For [destroying our relationships] with all parts of the world:

[snip]

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas [through "Extraordinary Rendition"] to be tried for pretended offences:

[snip]

He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries [to Iraq] to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

[snip]

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A [Boy] Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
The case for impeachment is clear, as was the case for revolution on July 4, 1776. Who will rid us of this megalomaniacal Preznit?
