For economy's sake, Pelosi needs to push for impeachment now

Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s ineffectiveness became clear the day she became Speaker of the House and immediately announced that there would be no impeachment proceedings against President George W. Bush or Vice President Dick Cheney.

Guided by politics, she said leading investigations into just how much the Bush administration did – and did wrong – would be divisive. What she didn’t express was her worry that too many Democrats faced elimination from the House if they took on the difficult task of proving who knew what, when.

But Congress is running out of time to finally make the Bush administration own up to its actions for eight years. If Congress isn’t careful, the president who already has issued 171 pardons could also pardon every appointee and employee he has ever had – and their dogs. And then Americans will never find out what happened to our country over the past eight years.

A Detroit Free Press columnist argues that Congress shouldn't let President Bush's last two months in office go by without pressing for impeachment.

3. Well, she could employ many many thousands

building new prisons for all the Bush* crooks....

4. Got to have a combo-impeachment.

junior and dick should immediately be impeached to make way for the 'BO economic and financial plunge protection team'.

5. Not a chance. No way in hell.

At one time I thought possibly there was a glimmer of hope. But certainly not now.

6. It's the right thing to do. But when in Pelosi's tiny little mind has that ever

been a consideration?

7. Don't hold your breath.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

8. I would like to see Nancy Pelosi get investigated. ...n/t

9. I think she's in an awkward position

because if she does this, she essentially pushes to make herself president.

I thought that's part of why she wasn't doing it all along.

That, and God forbid she should get the all-important "powder" wet.

10. HAHAHAHA

That'll happen

11. Uhh...Pelosi ENABLED Bush.

Why would she want to stop her good ol pal?
