Pelosi greeted with “Impeach” Bush and Cheney buttons
January 18th, 2008, filed by Thomas Ferraro – Reuters
U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she’s drawing heat from fellow Democratic lawmakers as well as people across the nation for refusing to move to impeach President George W. Bush or Vice President Dick Cheney.
“I go through airports, and people have buttons as if they knew I was coming,” Pelosi said with a smile, mimicking a protester pointing to an “Impeach” button on their chest.
But the California Democrat said she is sticking to her position that trying to remove Bush or Cheney would be divisive, and she added, most likely unsuccessful. If the House voted to impeach Bush and Cheney, a two-thirds vote would be needed in the closely divided Senate to oust them.
Many Democrats and civil liberties groups have accused the Bush administration of misleading the United States into the Iraq war and violating the rights of U.S. citizens with its warrantless surveillance program. The White House denies the charges.

dick & george committed TREASON by endangering us (lied for carnage in Iraq; soon in Iran). They likely had a role in 9/11. They approve torture, deny habeas corpus, are creating a thug class (Blackwater, police brutality, etc.), let corporatists run America (fascism), and call our Constitution a “God-damned piece of paper.” They are widening the rich/poor gap, which historically causes slavery and violent revolution. They let milk and meat from defective cloned animals be marketed unlabeled. They’ve mandated (Bioshield) drugging of “mentally ill” citizens (= dissidents, as in the old USSR). They’ve mandated electronically traceable biometric IDs with all our personal information so they can spy on us and also disable IDs to deny us travel, jobs, utilities, medicine, lawyers, food, etc. (= death). Historically, rulers who spy on their own citizens “move forward” to killing their citizens. They’ve had KBR build concentration camps in the USA (reported in Marketwatch). To say “what harm can they do in one more year” is like asking “what harm can a serial killer do in one more year”. IMPEACH NOW.
If Ron Paul loved this country and its laws, he would have signed on to the Impeachment of Cheney!
Ron Paul has taken no action to Impeach Bush or Cheney! What is he waiting for? Martial Law?
yes, i can’t believe that she is not taking action on this. this whole congress thing is starting to look like a theater play that is there for entertainment purposes only.
It’s worth a shot Pelosi, you damned traitor shill. You do NOT represent the people of America. Our country is sinking deeper and deeper into a hole and nothing is being done. Thanks for nothing.
She says she doesn’t want have impeachment hearings because she doesn’t want to be “divisiveâ€. Well Damn it! sometimes doing the right thing demands that you be “divisiveâ€.
If any other world leader had done what Bush has done, international arrest warrants would be issued, and Bush would be tried, convicted, and sent to prison where he belongs.
Pelosi for some strange reason believes that shredding the Constitution will get her reelected, or maybe she already has a new corporate job for after November !!
IMPEACH NANCY PELOSI!
IMPEACH NOW!
IF WE DON’T, WE WILL BE ELECTING A NEW KING NOT A PRESIDENT!
IMPEACH NOW!
WE DO NOT CARE IF THEY ARE “OUSTED” FROM OFFICE! WE ONLY HAVE A YEAR LEFT.
WE WANT THE TRUTH!!!
