where one is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty, I feel once the trial starts the votes will come. After all I don't want to see them being railroaded or any semblance of that. I want to see a real fair trial in front of a jury where the jurors have not made their minds up yet and then let the chips fall where they may. If it would lead to a re:puke: majority in the next congress and Whitehouse so be it, I happen to believe it would not.

3. Once we got to investigate the Katrina response, we'd have the votes
There's not a doubt in my mind about that. The only thing stopping us now is Leiberman, and he couldn't stonewall in an impeachment trial.

4. When 224 House Democrats are all saying in unison "we don't have the votes," something doesn't quite
make sense.

They do have the votes because they would have the votes, but they are covering for a criminal conspiracy.

7. If so, then they are members of that criminal conspiracy to commit war crimes.
Aiding and abetting ongoing war crimes.
