Brattleboro Town Officials Harassed Over Bush-Cheney Arrest Petition
Source: AP
BRATTLEBORO, Vt. -- Town officials in Brattleboro are being inundated with complaints from across the country about a decision to let voters decide whether arrest warrants should be issued for President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.
Town Clerk Annette Cappy said the "nastiness" of the calls prompted the town office to stop answering its phones Monday.
One message from a Minnesota man said he'd like to see terrorists cut off the heads of some Brattleboro officials.
Brattleboro police said they will prosecute anyone whose messages cross the line and harass town officials.
Town officials say the petition that led to ballot measure complied with the law. Petition organizers say the measure was symbolic.

1. I guess that 30% that still support Bush are showing their colors
They only like freedom of speech when it agrees with what they believe.

8. More like .003%
I don't believe the 'official' numbers for a second. Even very conservative people that I talk with think Junior is a train wreck in slow motion.
I don't wanta believe it goes against my views........

4. Scumbags making threats
should go start their own petition in their towns to get a declaration of support for Bush and Cheney. Good luck with that!
Most towns have more important buisness than dealing with your dumbasses.

6. "like to see terrorists cut off the heads of some Brattleboro officials"
Edited on Tue Jan-29-08 10:44 AM by LynnTheDem
Since only a truly sick MFer "American" would wish such a truly sick thing on other Americans (or any other human being, but ain't it ironic how they still squeal about HUssein "killed his own people" yet they want to see their own people murdered) and their rights to publicly hold their own opinions and uphold the laws, obviously that "American" who would "like to see terrorists cut off the heads of some Brattleboro officials" is a republican.
republican; as UN-AMERICAN as it's possible to get.
PS stupid MFing rightwingnut; thatmakes YOU a terrorist by your own bush-gawd's definition.
Rightwingnuts; truly the stupidest MFers ever.
Ahhh.............I see nothing has changed with this bitch.
