How much longer can the media ignore the Impeachment Hearings?

Is there any doubt left that Bushco is basically the mafia ....blackmailing and threatening everyone that dares to defy them? How else can you explain it?

6. Speaking of Kerry,

the impeachment proceedings will probably get about as much publicity as Kerry's investigations into BCCI, Iran-Contra, etc. got, and will probably have about as much effect -- i.e., not much.

8. It now turns out that 25% of the voters in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland)

Were removed from the voter roles prior to the election in 2004 and that
their names and addresses were also found on lists inside the White House ....

Has the media said word one about this? Hell no. The level of control over
vast amounts of the mass media by the right is staggering.

7. They will continue to ignore because

They know there will be no impeachment. There will be no impeachment because Nancy Pelosi and other top Democratic leaders are complicit enough to endanger themselves as accomplices.

Advance this video clip to the 2:28 minute mark where Nancy Pelosi is brought up in the conversation. This is why yesterday IMHO was sadly probably nothing more than just theater.

10. Dana Milbank wrote a rather smarmy article today in the Washington Post

Kinda Sorta Impeaching the President

Saturday, July 26, 2008; Page A03

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/07/25/AR2008072503077.html?hpid=news-col-blogs

snip-->

"This is not an impeachment hearing," Conyers felt obliged to remind everybody.

:eyes:

"This committee should immediately begin impeachment hearings!" thundered Rep. Robert Wexler (D-Fla.),
a key ally of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. The audience members cheered.

"Let's restrain ourselves, please," Chairman Conyers counseled.

:eyes:

and she seems to go after Dennis Kucinich and (DUer) David Swanson with some condescending adjectives too.

What an asshole.

11. can you imagine if he'd treated Gingrich, Barr, Scarborough, that Watermelon idiot from Indiana, etc

with the same contempt?

maybe we wouldn't be where we are today, as the impeachment of clinton was the MOST proximate cause of Bush's stolen election
