BRATTLEBORO — Brattleboro residents will vote at town meeting on whether President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should be indicted and arrested for war crimes, perjury or obstruction of justice if they ever step foot in Vermont.

The Brattleboro Select Board voted 3-2 Friday to put the controversial item on the Town Meeting Day warning.

According to Town Clerk Annette Cappy, organizers of the Bush-Cheney issue gathered enough signatures, and it was up to the Select Board whether Brattleboro voters would consider the issue in March.

Cappy said residents will get to vote on the matter by paper balloting March 4.

Kurt Daims, 54, of Brattleboro, the organizer of the petition drive, said Friday the debate to get the issue on the ballot was a good one. Opposition to the vote focused on whether the town had any power to endorse the matter.

"It is an advisory thing," said Daims, a retired prototype machinist and stay-at-home dad of three daughters.

So far, Vermont is the only state Bush hasn't visited since he became president in 2001.

Daims said the most grievous crime committed by Bush and Cheney was perjury — lying to Congress and U.S. citizens about the basis of a war in Iraq.

He said the latest count showed a total of 600,000 people have died in the war.

Daims also said he believed Bush and Cheney were also guilty of espionage for spying on American people and obstruction of justice, for the politically generated firings of U.S. attorneys.

Awww, how cute, those people in Vermont actually think they can do something.   :rotf:   

Talk about a waste of tax dollars.   Then again, it seems the folks up there really do not care, even if it's just a symbolic gesture (paper ballots cost money!)

The President and Vice-President should both arrange to vacation in Vermont this August.  They should then buy up as much land as possible and donate it to the Boys Scouts.

The article goes on to say the indictments would be the "law of the town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro police ... arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro, if they are not duly impeached ..."

Wonder if they'd ask for volunteers from the police force to do the arresting? Can you picture it?....a Secret Service detail staring down the local LEO's? I've a feeling there would end up being a "Now Hiring" sign in the window of the Brattleboro PD the next day.

I have a feeling you're right, but am I the only one that would love to see it actually happen? Maybe I'm sadistic. I just think it would be funny as hell seeing a bunch of moonbats being mowed down by trying to harm and/or detain the President.
