Poll question: With McGovern calling for Bush and Cheney impeachment...

...and the story being carried in at least one MSM paper, do you think Dem leadership might reconsider?

And secondly, do you wish they would?

As we enter the eighth year of the Bush-Cheney administration, I have belatedly and painfully concluded that the only honorable course for me is to urge the impeachment of the president and the vice president.

After the 1972 presidential election, I stood clear of calls to impeach President Richard M. Nixon for his misconduct during the campaign. I thought that my joining the impeachment effort would be seen as an expression of personal vengeance toward the president who had defeated me.

Today I have made a different choice.

Of course, there seems to be little bipartisan support for impeachment. The political scene is marked by narrow and sometimes superficial partisanship, especially among Republicans, and a lack of courage and statesmanship on the part of too many Democratic politicians. So the chances of a bipartisan impeachment and conviction are not promising.

But what are the facts?. . .

2. No way, No how, No chance.

Despite the voices of great people like Kucinich, McGovern, Rep. Wexler and others calling for justice, the fact remains that the power is in the hands of Pelosi and Harry Reid. Their "off the table" position is so etched in stone it is petrified.

3. I'm afraid you're right -- they seem very determined not to pursue it. nt.
