Democrats Ready To Impeach Bush
Another Reason We Can't Let Them Take Back Congress

Byron York has a great piece over at NRO about Democrat plans should they take back Congress. Let's be clear, there are only two plans -- impeaching the President and surrendering to the terrorists.
While it’s absent in the body of the report, the I-word does appear a few times in Conyers’s 1,401 footnotes, which include citations of authorities ranging from the left-wing conspiracy website rawstory.com to the left-wing antiwar sites democracyrising.us and afterdowningstreet.org to the left-wing British newspaper the Guardian to the left-wing magazines The Nation and Mother Jones to the left-wing blogosphere favorite Murray Waas to the New York Times columnists Paul Krugman, Maureen Dowd, Bob Herbert, and Frank Rich to former Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal to the New Yorker’s Seymour Hersh. (Sources for “The Constitution in Crisis” even include one story co-written by the disgraced Internet writer Jason Leopold.) Relying on such material, Conyers has created what might be called the definitive left-wing blogger’s history of the Bush administration.
The Democrats are hoping to turn 2007 into their version of the Republicans' 1998. We need to stop them. Surrender to the terrorists is not an option, but the Democrats don't see it that way.

That's the thing: even if most Democrats have no desire to hold impeachment hearings and then a vote, Rep. Conyers will NOT be stopped on this given the opportunity.
And I doubt the Democrats would have the courage to deny Conyers the chairmanship of his committee in order to prevent it, what with how the CBC would react and all.

absent the bullet in the basement, although the wish is there.
I doubt most dems would be against it, for them it would be a great runup to the '08 elections, the brush with which to tar any republican running for water commissioner or town council. The hyena's have to have their raw meat and they can't forgive the Clinton impeachment for showing them as they are.
Facts and validity are meaningless, it's the blood that counts.
Whether there's documentable evidence or not, count on Bush to be impeached in the House.
Unlike Republicans, Dems hang together, and Bush's impeachment will please those hugely rich donors to the Dem party -- like Soros who has said he'd pledge his fortune to get rid of Bush.
Oh Chairman Conyers would have hearings, but I'm not sure it's guaranteed that they'd actually impeach him. Speaker Pelosi would surely have an eye on 2008 when it came time to act on what Conyers came up with.

it migh tbe just what the President needs to regain his popularity. Worked for Clinton after all! Still, and in all seriousness, this is a major concern and another political "sour grapes" impeachment is the very last thing thsi country needs, especially these days. While it would do the country good to have sensible Democrats in charge of at least one house of Congress I worry that the House at least would end up with too many KOS clones.
Should Conyers find opportunity to pursue this course, it might prove to be political capital tossed like a horseshoe into the weeds.
With the growing markets of India and China coupled with the continuing crisis of the Middle East, ENERGY should be the topic of utmost importance.
America has innumerable resourses to create energy, but a lack of capacity to convert those resources into energy. We may not be in an energy crisis yet, but, we are sadly behind the curve.
How is this possible?
America's economical might is at peril because of environmental paranoia?
America needs to become a self-contained ENERGY powerhouse, the rest of the world be damned!
too many of the "sit this one out" crowd that claims their "vote has to be earned" and cite the "need to inject new blood into the party" and want to see "that veto pen get rattled" are blinded by their insolence, even after what you just wrote.
