Is it possible that the GOP is taking their chance to not be saddled with Cheney come 2008?

[Solly Mack]

Or?

I'm all ears.

WTF is happening?

Going to vote NO later on the articles themselves?

1. The republicans want this...when they fail to get an impeachment

they can rub the democrats noses in it. See see see cheney hasn't done anything to be impeached...they are canny, and sly.

[Solly Mack]

4. Sounds just like something they would do too.

[Vanje]

19. Yeah right

Kucinich is a GOP operative. Dennis and Karl are real thick.



(Do I have to really say that this is sarcasm?)

[onehandle]

5. Yep. nt

[underpants]

7. They will depict the Dems as wasting time and out of touch

I don't think it will work for them

[Adsos Letter]

2. that's what has me puzzled...

would love to hear insight on this...

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

3. Looks like the party's turning.

Same thing happened to Nixon.

[cally]

6. The Reps think that a discussion on impeachment will hurt the

Dem party. The Dem leaders think it will hurt their election prospects next year. We'll see.

[Solly Mack]

13. I feel as if I'm watching a play

[sandnsea]

8. This will show support for Cheney and Republicans

as the House votes against impeachment. This is a fucking disaster.

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. The paralells to watergate all over

remember it was George Senior and a delegation that told Nixon it was over...

And by the way... this will give them the house and senate in 2008 as well as the WH, that is what they are counting on

I hope americans forget the how you make saussage detiails, or we just lost the 2008 election

[Solly Mack]

16. I know of the internal rift against Nixon

and Carter took the WH after Ford stepped in for Nixon....and then too many years of GOP after that

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. I know

that is why I think we are seeing a parallel, a risky manouver, but oh well

Regardless, impeachment is NOW on the table... I THINK

[Stinky The Clown]

10. Repubs HOPING to make Dems look foolish

I think they may be unhappy they're doing this

[Voltaire]

11. GOP Jedi Mind Trick

Its what I would do if I were them though. Why not take advantage of a clear fault line in your opponents party? The Dems had better back Kucinich or prepare to get kicked in the ass by the GOP on this one. I'm betting they get kicked in the ass.

[Solly Mack]

12. There's a thought

[LeftHander]

14. Repubs need to throw Cheney under the bus....

If they want to have any hope of returning to Washington for another term...

Cheney has ALL TIME LOW support...

[AlinPA]

15. No. They want the vote now to get the issue out of the way. nt

[Solly Mack]

17. Simple and direct

Out of the way and shut it down.
