Apparently, the righteous right are seeking petition support for impeaching Pelosi because of her trip to Syria. But it sounds more like payback for investigating "scooter".Wonder how they can hold this position as Republicans went along with her on her fact finding tour?!
However, IMV, should this gain legs, it would effectively stop any future fact findings tours.
quote:
Why should Speaker Pelosi -- third in the line of Presidential succession -- get away with blatantly undermining U.S. foreign policy by meeting with the leader of a country that supports terrorism? Why aren’t our conservative leaders calling for a full investigation of her actions, or censure or even impeachment?Speaker Pelosi must be investigated with the same zeal and tenacity Patrick Fitzgerald showed when he dogged Lewis "Scooter" Libby even though no underlying crime had been committed... the same zeal and tenacity that liberals are now showing as they ridiculously pursue President Bush and the Attorney General over the totally legal firings of U.S. District Attorneys.
Speaker Pelosi’s actions to undermine U.S. foreign policy should be fully investigated. She clearly violated the principle of separation of powers outlined in the Constitution and the plain language of the Logan Act. The American people want action and they want it now!
