Towns in Vermont held their annual meetings last month, and 40 of them voted to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney. Earlier today the Vermont state senate followed suit with a 16-9 vote calling for impeachment. The resolution says that the pair's actions both abroad and here at home "raise serious questions of constitutionality, statutory legality, and abuse of the public trust." While these votes don't carry any legal weight, they do seem to indicate a serious, growing political problem for the White House.
It's also wildly ironic that President Bush, who has attempted to justify the war in Iraq by calling it an effort to spread democracy, is faced with a democratic vote here at home calling for his removal from office.
