Shouldn't the Clemens investigation be "off the table"?



Cross posted in Daily Kos

All of this crap about whether or not Roger Clemens got shot in the ass with HDH or Steroids pales in the face of serious national issues. Yet Congress finds the time to hold investigations on this meaningless bullshit.

Congress can find the time... bring every other thing to a standstill, evidently, to hold hearings on this, but investigating the lies, and illegal actions of the Bush Administration is "off the table".

Nancy Pelosi has said that impeachment is "off the table". Why are we then spending the precious time of our Congress investigating a fat assed pitcher's drug habits?

What is more important to the future of this country, knowing whether or not which player or players are artificial or natural behemoths or holding our elected officials to the standards set in our Constitution?

Hey, I'm just sayin'.

Rep. Jay Inslee (D WA-01) calls for Impeachment charges against Alberto Gonzales

RESOLUTION Directing the Committee on the Judiciary to investigate whether Alberto R. Gonzales, Attorney General of the United States, should be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors.

1 Resolved, That the Committee on the Judiciary shall

2 investigate fully whether sufficient grounds exist for the

3 House of Representatives to impeach Alberto R. Gonzales,

4 Attorney General of the United States, for high crimes

5 and misdemeanors.



Thank you, Rep. Inslee. You, and Patty Murry, owe us after quashing the Bush Impeachment Resolution brought to the Washington State Senate earlier this year. You squished freshman Senator Eric Oemig and his impertinence like a bug.

This action goes a long way in redeeming yourself, Jay. Gonzales is the linch pin that keeps the Bush administration together: He has been involved, to a greater or lesser degree, in almost every over-reaching aspect of this cabal. Your call might be the start of the great unravelling.

Thank you, Jay for this resolution urging the judiciary committee to get a move on. It's about time.
