Wanted in Vermont

Here's something for us to chew over. Two Vermont towns have indicted Bush and Cheney for "crimes against the Constitution."

What this means exactly is uncertain: "No specific crimes are mentioned, but organisers of the anti-Bush effort have referred to perjury, obstruction of justice and war crimes related to the Iraq conflict."

Does this fit within the bounds of federalism as we know it? Can they really do this? If so how? Its a neat thought experiment perhaps.
