Re: FISA: Ready to Rumble? (none / 0)

I'm actually hoping there is some accountability (and still believe there may be).

Strategically, I don't think Obama can telegraph that he'll go after Bush et. al. right now.  It would be too much of a distraction, and runs the risk of rallying the republican base.  On top of that, he doesn't want to make his campaign look like it's about revenge.

Well for what it's worth.

Nancy Pelosi said no because she said they didn't have the Senate votes. This didn't bother the Legislative Branch when they impeached Pres. Clinton.

Sen. Obama said he wouldn't impeach if he was president cause he didn't want it to look like a witchhunt.

I dunno. Kind of looks like no impeachment. I forget,what %of our tax dollars goes to pay a pres and vice pres 's retirement?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say,"no impeachment".

I, for one, have been disappointed that there hasn't been a bigger push for impeachment.  If we can't impeach Bush, what the fuck can we impeach for?!?

That said, there are ways to hold those responsible for criminal actions apart from impeachment.
