9. I agree with you
but the need from outraged DUers for bloody, raw meat to satisfy their hunger is oftentimes too strong for what you and I might consider reasonable thought. (oh, that sentence is going to bug a lot of people, but I am trying to be respectful).

Yes, there are crimes being committed every day by * and his merry band of thieves -- and I do mean merry -- and, yes, many, if not all, of those crimes are impeachable offenses.

But do we have the votes in the House? I don't know. And the Senate? Decidedly not. So, the 4 months spent impeaching bush not only takes four months away from the business the constituents need district by district and state by state and the work needed to bring the soldiers home, but, at the end of the day when we've failed because we NEVER HAD THE VOTES TO BEGIN WITH, we're left with the ruins of a Democratic Party sitting with a big, black eye and looking at a repug majority in the next elections, an emboldened repug party that can play the Victim and wrap their wolve-selfs in sheep's clothing even better than before and *, who now finds himself a martyr and can push through even more evil, onerous legislation than before because the Free Pass he got from the Press now comes complete with the gold cloak of someone who's been "wronged".

Isn't fair, doesn't make sense, but I suspect that's the political reality Reid and Pelosi are facing.
