#1 Vermont can leave the union if it doesn't like the current rules of the game.

#2 Again, children play. Just another reinforcement to the concept that 'liberals' are far too often adults who've failed to grow up.

#3 Sorry all. I live in Vermont. There are two populations here. One is very liberal, largely carpetbagger types, who have a strong sense of self-entitlement and self-importance. Democrats all. The other population is 'native', conservative, and hard working, not prone to empty gestures and onanism. The first group has its base of power in Brattleboro, Burlington, Rutland, and maybe Montpelier; the second is spread out over the rest of the state. Bad things like this happen because of the small population. The level of revulsion between the two groups is very high, and growing. Civil discourse is at ebb.

Someone get on the line to Victor Davis Hanson: We need a battle-plan!

#5 ...their actions in Iraq and the US "raise serious questions of constitutionality."

Kinda wonder why the story doesn't bother to list any of these 'questions', let alone any, you know, violations of the Constitution...

#7 Must have missed this one in Civics. I was completely unaware Vermont could impeach a President.

Spit.

#8 Just another reinforcement to the concept that 'liberals' are far too often adults who've failed to grow up.

And fail to realise this is a "FACT" not an opinion.

#9 Question for WM: How many Republicans are there in the Senate: The article says:"...all six Republicans in the chamber at the time..." was this the total or was the vote scheduled ( or maybe a quickly inserted action) to take advantage of missing Trunks?
