Vt. Towns Endorse Move to Impeach Bush >
March 7, 2006, 11:30 PM EST

NEWFANE, Vt. -- In a white-clapboard town hall, built circa 1832, voters gathered Tuesday to conduct their community's business and to call for the impeachment of President Bush.

"In the U.S. presently there are only a few places where citizens can act in this fashion and have a say in our nation," said select board member Dan DeWalt, who drafted the impeachment article that was placed on the warning -- or official agenda -- for the annual town meeting, a proud Yankee tradition in New England.

"It absolutely affects us locally," Dewalt said. "It's our sons and daughters, our mothers and fathers, who are dying" in the war in Iraq.

Other cities nationwide have taken up resolutions calling for Bush's impeachment, notably San Francisco. The sentiment has rarely spread to rural America, but Vermont is known for bucking politics as usual.

2. Is it the new Civil War? The Northern vs. Southern, Mid-West
states again?

I know that a lot of North Eastern Repub's are not going to vote Repub. in the near future, so is the Civil War still going on?
