Brattleboro, VT does something totally meaningless and yet ridiculously awesome

Updated because I confused the two Vermont towns that start with 'B'. Whoops.

I guess the town of Burlington, Vermont -- famous for not having laws against public nudity and for holding an annual World Naked Bike Ride (note: common sense will tell you that there's some nudity (only a tiny bit) on that page, so click at your own risk) -- is a little worried about people forgetting how liberal it is. But they can worry no more.

Here's the proposal that appeared on today's ballot there in Brattleboro:

Shall the Selectboard instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution, and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities and shall it be the law of the Town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro Police, pursuant to the above-mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro if they are not duly impeached, and prosecute or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them?

The dulcet tones of Wolf Blitzer have just informed me that the proposal passed with somewhere around 65% of the vote. Which means the people of Burlington Brattleboro just voted to arrest the President and Vice President if they ever show up in Burlington Brattleboro. Which actually won't be much of a problem, because the dulcet tones of Wolf Blitzer have also just informed me that the President has never once visited Vermont since he's been in office.

Anyway, kinda awesome.
