Small town’s antics not likely to bring down America
The little town of Newfane, Vermont, is making a name for itself by voting to impeach President George W. Bush. That’s a pretty silly thing to do, of course, but I find it hard to believe that a small town in Vermont - an ur-American type of town, if you will - is a “disgrace to America” or will bring down America, as some its critics claim.
What’s interesting is that the impeachment resolution passed with 121 votes to 29, suggesting a homogenity that comes close to making the town more or less a private club where all the members share the same values. And that’s just about my favorite kind of small town!
Although I’d prefer one that didn’t impeach our President for defending the country against Muslim terrorists.
