Bush and Cheney go to Vermont, get locked up, hang out for about 30 days or so, during which time VH1 comes in and films a new reality series called “Bush and Dick in the Pokey.”

The day filming stops, Dubya pardons himself and Dick, and everyone goes home happy. Now, I know there’s some constitutional gray area when it comes to presidential self-pardoning, but I’m sure they could work out something with the Supreme Court. What the hell else does Scalia have to do these days?

It is also, however, among the most permissive regarding firearms- google “Vermont carry” at your leisure.

EllisEmefty: A portion of western MA had a secession movement very recently as well: The Berkshire Free State.

I think there would be two sources of revenue for the BFS: milk, and gouging visiting Manhattanites on “antiques”.

I hope they do arrest the President. After a couple regiments of Marines and Rangers lay waste to the town, it can be re-settled with sane people.

In any other time in the last 30 years, I might have written this off as a being a case of the winter stir-crazies. Tragically, at this time, it starts to make sense. If citizens aren’t willing to publicly call our “elected” officials onto the carpet, the Congress is never going to get off it’s butt and do anything useful- and by “useful” I mean anything in range from “What they said they were going to do” to “What their constituents are asking them to do.”

Especially people from MA.
