Why No Impeachment?

Why? Of all the presidents we have ever had, this one, most of all, should have been impeached. Why didn't the Dems do it? Is Nancy Pelosi in a coma? Is she too busy posing for pictures with her "friend" Newt Gingrich? Why is she so indifferent? Is it because all of the Dems are also in bed with corporate lobbyists, just like their republican "friends?"

Not "all", "most". The DLC crew is "Republican Light". There's a photo of Pelosi sitting close to Chimpy. From the look on her face, she's ready to put on the kneepads and do a Lewinsky. She,and Reid, should show some small measure of dignity and step down as soon as their Pirate love objects are out of office and/or influence.

The fact that Congress made Bush's actions legal...it would be hard pressed to impeach and convict without implicating a good portion of themselves. You want an impeachment...first step is to vote in a new Congress.

Why no impeachment? Because he's not impeachable. He has done absolutely nothing wrong unless you are a conspiracy nut or left-wing Kool Aid drinker. Pelosi has the smarts to stay off the subject of impeachment because it will backfire big time, besides her schedule and that of the other Dems is already full with "doing nothing". They have done absolutely nothing in two years controlling the House.

The main reason why Congress has not brought up impeachment charges is because they need 2/3 of the house for it to happen. That means a lot of republicans would have to want to impeach Bush,too. They are too far up his ass to do that. So why waste time on something that cannot happen?

Or maybe the Dems care more about this country than to subject it to the extended pain and arguing, as the Republicans did (out of petty hate for Bill and to the benefit of Osama Bin Laden), knowing that this administration will soon be out of power. They can than be dealt with but if they show intent to invade Iran impeachment proceeding should proceed immediately. I can only hope Pelosi and Reid understand their responsibility to do so.
