Vermont is beautiful this time of year...

Remember the movie "White Christmas" with Bing Crosby, Danny Kay, Rosemary Clooney (George Clooney's aunt), and Vera Ellen? Vera had the best legs...! The great line, "Ah, Vermont is so beautiful this time of year...all that snow." Vermont is a beautiful place. I remember going there long ago on a family vacation to Maine. I need to go again, and this time of year would be perfect as the leaves will be beginning their fall colors and such.

We all know that Vermont is a rather left wing state. They were the first state to come forward asking Bush-Cheney for their resignations. In 2007, the state adopted a resolution calling for Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against Bush and Cheney. My guess is that he will not plan a visit there in the next few months either. Last March, the towns of Brattleboro and Marlboro, Vermont voted to seek indictments against Bush and Cheney over the war, and dozens of other towns voted at town meetings to call for his impeachment. This is the only state that the President has not visited in his entire time in office.

Charlotte Dennett deserves a cuddos! Dennett, 61, is the Progressive Party's candidate for Vermont Attorney General. She said Thursday she will prosecute President Bush for murder if she's elected on Nov. 4. Dennett and two others are challenging incumbent Attorney General William Sorrell, a Democrat, in the upcoming election. She states that Bush must be held accountable for the unnecessary deaths of thousands of U.S. soldiers and over a million accounted Iraqi civilian deaths. She believes the Vermont attorney general would have jurisdiction to do so.

You all have read herein about the book, that I have been touting by former Los Angeles prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi. He is the author of the new book "The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder". In his book he stated that he and his staff would give assistance to any attorney general that takes on this task. Any state has jurisdiction, as every state has had a soldier that has died in Iraq.

"Someone has to step forward," said Dennett, flanked by Bugliosi at a news conference announcing her plan. "Someone has to say we cannot put up with this lack of accountability any more."

Bugliosi, 74, gained fame as the prosecutor of killer Charles Manson, said any state attorney general would have jurisdiction since Bush committed "overt acts" including the military's recruitment of soldiers in Vermont and allegedly lying about the threat posed by former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in speeches that were aired in Vermont and elsewhere.

"No man, even the president of the United States, is above the law," said Bugliosi.

Of course, The White House press office didn't respond to a request for comment Thursday. But Republican National Committee spokesman Blair Latoff denounced Dennett.

Typical politics. Typical Bush team. Deny till you die...

Latoff said, "It's extremely disappointing that a candidate for state attorney general is more concerned with radical left-wing provocation than upholding the law of Vermont. These incendiary suggestions may score points among the most fringe elements of American society, but can't be settling for anyone looking for an attorney general." I guess he doesn't give a shit about true accountability. Oh, that would mean his boss would go to prison. Can you imagine Bush going to prison. He is the man who has executed more than anyone...hmmm, I'd like to see that.

The incumbent, Sorrell, said he doesn't believe a Vermont attorney general would have the authority to charge Bush. Some beg to differ. "The reality is, in my view, that unless the crime takes place in Vermont, then I as the attorney general have no authority under Vermont law to be prosecuting the president," Sorrell said. The funny thing is that the crime did take place in Vermont, and Iowa, and Florida, and Texas...and Iraq. Perhaps a UN tribunal will get a backbone and do something?...right...
