5. Pelosi started the ball rolling to allow GOP leaders to get away with criminal actions, when

she stated in January, 2007, that impeachment was off the table. Reid has still
done nothing to change the filibuster rules after 400+ GOP filibusters in 4
years. Obama is still trying to appease the GOP leaders, possibly with the hope
of gaining bipartisanship, when they couldn't make it any clearer that they were
interested only in his destruction, as well as the destruction of the Democratic
Party.

Can anyone deny that these people have played the role of enablers in the GOP'S
misdeeds? And if the GOPers think they can still get away with anything, they'll
continue behaving the way they do.

Elizabeth Warren is no enabler, you can bet your bottom dollar on that. She is
probably as sick of the present Democratic leadership bumbling as I am. She
is doing a great job as senator. She'll be doing just as great a job as president.

I don't know if the statute of limitations has already run out on some of the
older dirty tricks, so that it's too late to file charges against some of the corporate
executives you mentioned above. I hope not. Certainly the more recent legal
transgressions can and should be brought to trial.
