Could it be that Pelosi is preparing to replace * ? Just in case

[Iwasthere]

Making so many points overseas with world leaders certainly gives the world greater confidence does it not? especially in these countries.

1. What a nice dream.

Doubt it, but it's a nice thought.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

2. That certainly crossed my mind this morning!

It looks very much like it.

[helderheid]

5. I had the same thought

[Rosa Luxemburg]

12. I wonder does she know something that we don't?

[helderheid]

16. with all these hearings - all the perjury ...

:D

[bemildred]

3. Doubt it, just doing her job, trying to restore some credibility. nt

[meldroc]

17. One can dream, no?

I'm thinking she's seen so much dirt in the backrooms that those of us outside of the Beltway don't get to see. So yes, I can imagine that she is making such arrangements. Maybe just as a plan B, while plan A is to use other means short of impeachment to pressure Bush into behaving himself.

But Bush is being incredibly stubborn, still thinking he can be the Unitary President, and very much disconnected from reality. Pelosi is trying to use lesser means, but I think she's realizing that it may not be possible to use conventional politics to get Bush to behave. That and she's seeing the corruption is so insidious and so widespread that she may have no choice but to impeach, so she's preparing.

4. Maybe she's telling them she's planning on Impeaching the 2 warmogers

and SHE will be prez. :7 Wouldn't that be nice?

[Iwasthere]

6. OMG!

Chills just went down my spine. Could you imagine ? We can dream, and hope huh?

[in_cog_ni_to]

22. Yes...hopes and dreams. It's all we have. Especially with the psycho in power.

26. Impeachment starts from the warplans drafted in 1973...

Things just got 'tweaked' from Saudi Arabia to Iraq. And the NYTimes didn't print, as the ending to the movie Three Days Of The Condor implies otherwise !

Maybe Nancy has seen www.oilendgame.com and senses a new paradigm emerging ?

[yurbud]

35. or at least planning to take the car keys away from junior

[ginnyinWI]

7. more realistically,

She's paving the way for the next president, opening up dialogue with our allies and helping mitigate the damage caused by the clowns.

At last, the grown-ups are able to take charge!

[progressoid]

15. Agreed.

She's using something they don't have much of: LEADERSHIP and DIPLOMACY.

[Kolesar]

36. We cannot afford to waste another 19 months while the lunatic dithers on foreign policy..eom

[ClayZ]

8. Let's hope! K and R

[saltpoint]

9. I like the way you're thinking. Pelosi could walk into the Oval Office

this afternoon and just hit the ground running, IMO.

She's someone with experience, perspective, smarts, compassion, clarity, and keen abilities.

Nothing at all like the Chimp.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

10. Funny you should say that. This morning I was just thinking that being second in line, she should

have every right to do what she's doing.

[Iwasthere]

14. Yes she does

EVERY RIGHT!!!

[Jack Rabbit]

11. That has crossed my mind

I don't think for a minute that she wants to be president, but how long is she going to be able to keep a lid on the impeachment movement? There are new reasons -- good ones -- to impeach coming to light every week or so and the old ones -- all valid -- are still there.

If she has demonstrated anything the last two days it is that the nation will be in good hands should she be elevated to the presidency. Even I wondered about that until now.

Hopefully, she will be moving into the White House by Christmas.

[helderheid]

13. :D

I am smiling!

18. How are those selling, BTW?

[helderheid]

28. I've not checked - I ought to, eh? :)

[helderheid]

29. sold 1 shirt. :P

[ClayZ]

20. sweet

[DURHAM D]

19. Here we go again - if Bush is impeached Cheney becomes Pres.-

and Cheney basically picks the new V-P. If Cheney is impeached Bush picks the new v-p. Either way, Pelois is not the new Pres. If they are both impeached she is does not become the Pres.

On the other hand, if they both pass away at the same time unexpectedly she is next in line.

[Iwasthere]

21. Perhaps they know something you don't

What if they both are impeached at the same time. There could be so much more going on that we don't know.

[in_cog_ni_to]

23. Maybe they BOTH will be Impeached for the SAME war crimes?

Have positive thoughts.;)

[EVDebs]

25. If they're simultaneously impeached who becomes President ? nt

[DURHAM D]

31. I do not see anyway they can/will be impeached simultaneously.

It will create a constitutional meltdown. However, if that were to happen I feel confident that Cheney will resign (prior to a conviction)and Bush will probably appoint the Sec. of State. If not Condi, then he will appointment one of the current Pres. candidates (probably Mitt)in order to allow him to run as an incumbent v-p.

If Mitt or Condi is in place and it looks like Bush will be impeached he will resign - making the vp the new president and they can appoint their own vp.

24. Pelosi

I can't help but wonder if Nancy hasn't been endorsed by 'management' to take over for Junior, and that maybe her trips are an indication that 'management' wants things cleaned up prior to junior's departure.

[Virginia Dare]

30. She's being given a chance at any rate...

you've probably hit close to the truth.

[Virginia Dare]

27. I certainly thought about that too...n/t

[Eurobabe]

32. Ha! One could only hope....

[rosesaylavee]

33. Seriously. She better be ready.

It's her job.

[gilpo]

34. I'll take some of whatever you guys are smoking

n/t

[saracat]

37. Just wondering, if that happened, What would Hillary do?

[The Backlash Cometh]

38. Oh, Christ!

If Drudge gets wind of this thread, by 5:00 Fox News will be reporting that an anonymous source claimed that liberals are conspiring to replace Bush with Pelosi.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

39. I think world leaders have finally found an American politician...

that they are willing to deal with. Sounds like Pelosi is trying to be diplomatic (imagine that!) and culturally sensitive, as opposed to all the chumps * has sent whose approach seems to resemble a large hammer.
