Trouble! Right There in Vermont! Updated

By Janet Evans

"Wackjobs?"  "Nuts?"

Seems that 's what people (besides me) think of Brattleboro, Vermont citizens who have been circulating a petition to have Bush and Cheney arrested for War Crimes if they ever set foot  in their state.

One upset person who emailed the town officials even suggests there might be something in their water that led them to go to such extremes!  Ha!  That's a thought.

Read the story from Yahoo.news

Vermont Anti-Bush Petition Lambasted   Ã here


These fruitless efforts by shameless Bush-haters, along with those who have promoted similar efforts in the past in other cities across the United States, including  in Wisconsin, need to come to a stop.

Shameless because they are wasting the time and resources of all taxpayers.

As sad as that is, what is even more sad is that these people haven't got a clue about the laws of impeachment.

They haven't got a clue of what real War Crimes were or are.

It just goes to show you, more time needs to be spent on history and civics in high school and college.

I'm sure Vermont won't be the last state with people who need to get a life who come up with new ways to hate Bush before he leaves office.

This is going to be an interesting ten months ahead of us.

ANOTHER waste of time!

I've been to Vermont.

I have family who lives there.

Vermont is one beautiful state!

But there are a lot of citizens in Vermont who refuse to come out of the dark ages.

There are a lot of citizens there who refuse to let any progress come forward in their towns.

There are a lot of citizens who listen to too much Canadian radio and their views, instead of those in the U.S.

"The latest count showed a total 600,000 people died in the war?"

Where the heck do Vermont citizens get their information from?

What war are they speaking of?

The Department of Defense updates that information on a regular basis.

As of January 25th the total count is 3,931.

Oh, they're speaking of that disputed study done back in 2006 saying that 600,000 Iraqi citizens have been killed.

Espionage?

Is this River City out of The Music Man?

If Hitler showed up in Vermont they would arrest him for war crimes?

Well, isn't that noble of them....

Bush isn't Hitler.

I think Vermonters need to brush up on their history of exactly WHAT Hitler was.

Maybe Vermonters need to "think outside the box" and find something positive to talk about regarding our troops.

Do Canadian talk radio stations support the arrest of Bush and Cheney?

Make sure you don't forget the approx. 25,000 American soldiers wounded in action in Iraq (depending on whether you refer to the DOD or Dept. for VA) with the 3,931 KIA number.  

The civilian death toll in Iraq following are invasion isn't close to 600,000.  That number seem outragous.  The World Health Organization estimates that the civilian death toll is only about 151,000 Iraqi civilians.  Actually, the W.H.O. even admits that the death toll might only be about 126,000.  Those numbers make me feel much better about our operations there.

Hi, Josh...

There are Canadian talk shows , just like I am sure there are media in many, many countries that are anti-Bush.  I don't listen to Canadian talk shows.  But my father does.  And I listen to him rant about what they say.

Here's one example in Canada of support for prosecution of Bush/Cheney for war crimes:  

www.straight.com/.../are-bush-co-war-criminals

I'm not forgetting our wounded heroes.  I was specifically speaking of the deaths.

I'm glad you feel much better about our operations there, Josh!

I'm not saying those deaths are good things.  You know that.  They just don't need to blow it out of proportion.  This is a war.  There are casualties.  That is a fact.  Bush did nothing to warrant being impeached and to waste time doing what Brattleboro is doing, cities in our own state have done, and others are contemplating doing is ridiculous.  

I would find it hard to believe even you wouldn't agree with that.

It's definately a waste of taxpayer money.  No question about it.  A lot of that going around these days.

Ouch!

I know...Just look at Pelosi!  She's just gone crazy since she's been in her position as Speaker!

She was probably crazy before that.  Now she's crazy AND in a position to spend, spend, spend.

The 600,000 figure was in a report funded by George Soros and has been proven to be BS.

Thanks Franklin Resident.  Great info.

Josh...I didn't miss your point.  

I NEVER miss your points...sarcastic or not.
