Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Vermont Town to Vote on Indicting Bush & Cheney

HeadlineJan 29, 2008

Residents of Brattleboro, Vermont will decide at an upcoming town meeting whether President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should be indicted and arrested for war crimes, perjury or obstruction of justice. Supporters of the initiative to arrest Bush and Cheney gathered enough signatures to put the item on the town meeting agenda. If passed, police in Brattleboro would be instructed to arrest and detain Bush and Cheney if they ever step foot in Brattleboro. Since taking office in 2001, Vermont is the only state in the country President Bush has not visited.
