Vermont Senate Votes to Impeach George W. Bush
I blogged two days ago about the impeachment drive currently underway in Vermont, and how it had seen success in local governments but had stalled in the state legislature. Well, no longer.
The Vermont Senate this morning approved by a 16-9 margin a resolution calling on the U.S. House to launch impeachment proceedings of Pres. George W. Bush and Vice Pres. Dick Cheney.
The Vermont Senate is the first state legislative body in the country to call on Congress to begin impeachment proceedings. Impeachment resolutions are currently active in Hawaii, Missouri, New Jersey, and Washington.
Next up is Vermont's House of Reps. We'll keep you updated. Thanks to Kos for the tip.
Oh, and PS - I also highlighted some truly fantastic Doonesbury cartoons in that earlier post. Very funny.

My argument for impeachment of Bush and for carting Blair off to the Internation War Crimes tribuneral (I'm from the UK) is that if we could achieve these 2 things just think what a great advert for democracy in action that would be. It would play very well all around the world and show that our system is not a dead sham!
Bush Cheney Blair the true Axis of Evisl
