In a fascinating with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, bloggers Mike Stark and Dave Johnson offer us a conversation in which Pelosi tells them she had decided “at least a year ago,” before Democrats had even taken control of the House and Senate, “that impeachment was something that we could not be successful with, and that would take up the time we needed to do some positive things to establish a record of our priorities and [Republican] short-comings.”
She adds, “The President isn’t worth it”¦he’s not worth impeaching. We’ve got important work to do.”
Stark, in marked contrast to the limp interview techniques of MSM “journalists,” then says, “Respectfully, the question is whether or not the Constitution is worth it,” to which he says Pelosi responds, “Well, yeah, the Constitution is worth it if you can succeed.”
