Grassroots Vermont Democrats urge impeachment of President Bush

MONTPELIER, Vt. --Grassroots Vermont Democrats want the Legislature to demand an investigation into whether President Bush should be impeached.

But the top Democrat in the House says she's not interested in spending time on the issue.

The Democratic State Committee met over the weekend and overwhelmingly backed a resolution, currently pending in the House Judiciary Committee, that calls for the impeachment of the president and Vice President Dick Cheney.

There were between 40 and 50 Democrats at the meeting and only about a half-dozen voted against the resolution.

3. No. Please. Gayle
is not in the pocket of the repukes. And though I support this, it would tear my small state up, just as civil unions did almost a decade ago. Yes, we got over it, but it wasn't an easy time. This is a really small place. We're often in the vanguard of progressive politics, and this is a hard decision for her.

2. I respect and admire Gayle Symington, Speaker of the Vermont
House, but she really needs to get on board with this. Not only is their wide support among Vermont Dems, and even some republicans, there's support for it by Dem Legislators- and the dems hold a veto proof majority in both the House and the Senate. I've written Gayle urging her to support this.

5. Clearly, if we're going to stop this Oiligarchy War and take our country back, it's
going to happen like this, as a result of the passion and hard work of grass roots Democrats. Go, Vermont!
