Seems our neighbors in the northeast have grown over-weary of the current White House regime treating the Constitution and the laws enacted by The People’s representatives like an optional menu.


Petitioners in Brattleboro gathered enough signatures (5 percent of the electorate) to put a question on their upcoming town ballot that calls for Bush and Cheney to be arrested “for crimes against our Constitution.”


Congressional Quarterly reported on the provisions Bush intends to ignore: “One such provision sets up a commission to probe contracting fraud in Iraq and Afghanistan. Another expands protections for whistleblowers who work for government contractors. A third requires that U.S. intelligence agencies promptly respond to congressional requests for documents. And a fourth bars funding for permanent bases in Iraq and for any action that exercises U.S. control over Iraq’s oil money.” For more, see here.
