BOSTON (Reuters) - The Vermont state senate passed a symbolic resolution on Friday calling on the U.S. Congress to impeach U.S. President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney over their handling of the unpopular Iraq war.
The resolution, passed by a 16 to 9 vote, urges Vermont's representatives in Washington to introduce a resolution in Congress requiring the U.S. House Judiciary Committee to start impeachment proceedings against Bush and Cheney.
Get educated on this bit of wishful thinking here ...
Now, if Vermont were representative of anything other than Vermont when it comes to national political thought, I'd be a little more blown away. Of course, 16 out of a possible 25 makes for a two thirds majority. Isn't that what it would take? Isn't that about what the approval ratings are for Bush? (Note, his approval ratings are better than Cheney's.)
