Ohio Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich said Thursday he's pleased that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is going to consider his impeachment resolution against President Bush. ...Yes, that's just his "suggestion." I know it's Fox, but oh me, oh my.
Kucinich was offering his second impeachment resolution, which unlike last month's with its more than 30 articles, has just a single article of impeachment. Kucinich said he boiled it down to focus on the main issues he has with the president's decision to go to war in Iraq.
It centers on the U.S. not finding any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and Kucinich's suggestion that Iraq was not involved with Al Qaeda and played no role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. [Emphasis added.]
Footnote: CBS said that
Pelosi has said previously that impeachment "was off the table," so her comments this morning were surprising, and clearly signaled a new willingness to entertain the idea of ousting Bush, although no one in the Democratic leadership believes that is likely since the president has only six months left in this term.That is, they'll "entertain the idea" now that it's so damn late in the day that there's no chance in hell they'll have to actually do anything about it. But just in case, she also said this wouldn't necessarily mean taking up articles of impeachment, but just "to have some hearings on the subject."
Ah. More of that "oversight" that has been so effective to date.
Talk to me. Really. I'll even consider paying for the bullets.
