House:

"Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11. Members of Congress are
official trustees presiding over the greatest reorganization of any
Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S. Government. We are setting
forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future. There are some who say it
is a coroner's report that will lead to our demise."

I don't think you can fix it just with punctuation.  My best attempt
is, "The ex-alcoholic, draft dodger, mass murderer, and former US
leader George W. Bush is..."  The comma after "murderer" is, I
grudgingly admit, optional.

Another possibility: "The ex-alcoholic, draft dodging, mass-murdering
former U.S. leader, George W. Bush, is..."

But this is the "Jew bastard" problem.  Some people engaging in
invective just stack up noun phrases.  (They also confuse praise, such
as "ex-alcoholic", with invective.)

I don't know: ". . . a secure facility for crimes against humanity"
could work.

You mean a facility built for committing crimes against humanity without
any interference?
