'Hundreds' cancel trips, homeowner threatens to move out
Telluride: Some of the ski fans who have patronized Telluride, Colo., now are calling the ritzy resort "the land of radical liberals" and canceling planned vacations there because the town board voted to approve an ordinance calling for the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney.
One ski club of 175 people already has made plans to go elsewhere, another skier has threatened to sell his home there and another critic predicted the town soon would bow to Mecca.
"It's huge, unbelievable," said Telluride Mayor John Pryor. "Ski groups are canceling for the winter. Hundreds of people are bailing. The (town) website is flooded with people saying they're canceling their vacations here."
The storm of protest followed the town board's recent vote on the impeachment issue, according to a report in the Denver Post.

Money talks: impeachment walks.
Alright! Think these tin-pot wannabees will get the message?
Look for a new town board as the liberals move out of an economic ghost town.
Telluride is getting hit with a surprising amount of anti-impeachment venom,” the Post report said.
Why is anti-impeachment speech venomous but impeachment speech is OK?
I think they did it for publicity and I hope it backfires big time. I guess they think all the liberals will come there.
“impeach bush vote backfires.”
cool. freedom is certainly cool.
Way to go, Telluride! Morons!
Seems the town board is only exercising their right to free choice but so are the skiers and tourists that are canceling. lol
A good economics lesson for the moonbats.
A good place for them to move to would be Western North Carolina. Ski Beach and many other resorts available.
General WestMoreland and many other famous people have homes there, upwards of 5 to 10 million dollar homes.
Ck. it out?????
Skiing in Colorado and skiing in NC are not the same.
Don’t send them here! I live in WNC and it’s getting crowded enough as is. Besides, the skiing sucks.
Telluride has yellow snow
They just never figure out that actions have consequences.
The Dixie Chicks business model
It will be a city of pure leftists, with no other opinions whatsoever. They can try to create their utopia there.
Funny comment. Is it yours?
Is this the same resort that that punk blogger tried to tell off Rumsfeld and was yelling about war criminal until the secret service sent him running?
Who wants to go into a hotbed of stupid, politically correct, mind-numbed robots? Not me!
