5. Aren't they in different houses?
Leahy's in the Senate and Conyers in the House.

7. ok thats right
impeachment starts in the House

I was working for the candidate running against Sensenbrenner, so Conyers as chairman of the Judiciary was my goal... threw me when I heard Leahy's name, but of course he is in the Senate and he is a great person for that position.

8. Whew...You got that right about Leahy!
He was really, really HOT in that committee hearing yesterday. I was expecting to see him jump across that table and pick up Gonzales by his collar.

6. As xultar noted, Conyers heads the House Judiciary Committee,
Leahy its Senate counterpart.
