SO WHAT’S THE HOLD UP! Why only for New York, Ohio, Delaware, and Massachusetts? Why none for her own State California, which I know has been screaming for impeachment. And why none for me? I sent her a petition to put in the congressional record. Actually, Congress has received millions of them! While I’m sure there’s some procedural reason for her entering these into the record other than, ‘Pelosi is pro-impeachment,’ we should still contact Pelosi and tell her to follow through with the process.

“…
In the interview, Pelosi spoke about the many impeachable offenses that Bush has committed and said “The American people really don’t even know the half of it…” She described assaults by Bush on judicial review and habeas corpus. But rather than following the Constitutional remedy of impeachment Pelosi summed up their strategy as follows: “So again, build the record, make it known to the public, understand that this flies in the face of everything our country stands for, and use it in the campaign and then do it right when we are in power, which I am absolutely certain we will be – I’m certain we will win the White House.” [Pelosi 6/28/07]
…”
Impeach Pelosi!

Now that she has put this on official record in Congress, Why aren’t there Impeachment Hearings? I thought Pelosi was the reason that Bush and Cheney could not be impeached. She refused to put it on the table yet the record shows it is on the table. I am confused. Can someone please explain to me what is going on? Thanks!
Why does she say Impeachment is Off the Table?
What a bunch of crap. Vote Pelosi out, SF. She’s worn-out tread on a 70’s bandwagon, screwing your great city. Anyone who has hope after this article is some brainless college student. Wake up. She’s yesterday’s news. and you CAN change the future. Vote her out. Democrat – cool; just not her.
