Pelosi could have been the first woman President
Easily, if not now surely by this summer. Impeaching the dicK would have been a slam dunk, still would be if someone had the nerve to get it started, w* would have folded like a cheap suit afterwards, impeaching him would have busted the damn back glass.

Maybe she is scared of the possibility? Is it too late to fire her and get someone who's not afraid of taking it to these bastards?

1. Her last day wouldn't be too late. That should teach her to listen to those who elected her.

2. Only a Vice-President assumes the office of the Presidency, anyone else only acts as president.

disregarding the constitutional crisis when Condi Rice challenges the Succession Acts inserting members of congress into the line.

Bottom line neither of them can assume the office of President.

6. Pelosi and Reid are just two more of our MANY failed leaders.

Our nation is on 'corporate autopilot' and the the fuel tanks are reading negative "E". I thought the prospect of a woman Speaker and President might enable or nation to assume a new course from our current destrucive path BUT damn, was I ever wrong; it has been WORSE than business as usual since Pelosi took over.

7. Impressive. Less than 80 words and so many things wrong:
Edited on Tue Oct-23-07 01:45 PM by Richardo
1) Do you seriously think that ascending from Speaker to President via impeachment is a good thing?
2) Do you seriously think that it could be a motivation for Pelosi?
3) Would you WANT a President that prosecuted two impeachment to rise to the office?
4) Do you think there would be no political payback for such a Machiavellian strategy?

OK that's the subject line. Now:

Easily(5), if not now surely by this summer(6,7). Impeaching the dicK would have been a slam dunk(8), still would be if someone had the nerve to get it started(9), w* would have folded like a cheap suit afterwards (10), impeaching him would have busted the damn back glass.(11)

Maybe she is scared of the possibility? Is it too late to fire her and get someone who's not afraid of taking it to these bastards?(12)


5) Easily? How is managing two impeachments easy? Use both sides of paper if necessary.
6) Two impeachments in nine months? Really?
7) With a general election campaign going? For every member of the House? And lame duck President and Veep who are on the way out?
8) Oh really? Have the investigations into his various malfeasances even started?
9) What are your expectations that any subpoenas will be honored by the Veep? Any?
10)Experience shows that when threatened, W does not fold. To the contrary, he behaves like a cornered badger.
11)What does that even mean?
12)Yes, it's too late to 'fire' her, as that would have had to have been done by the voters of the 8th District of California last November.
