4. Yes another Scholar up next

2. Totally disgusting. Are these the "other prioities" that Pelosi's office
told me they were working on? Wasserman-Schultz also said, in a radio interview, they had more important priorities than impeachment.

5. Ms. Pelosi is running the clock out.
I remember how excited I was when she was sworn in as Speaker. I put a picture of it up in my front window. I took that picture down last month.

6. Impeachment was never on the table for Pelosi
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/10/20/60minutes/main2111089.shtml

at the end of the article:
She has pledged that as Speaker she would give the Republicans rights they’ve denied the Democrats, like allowing them to introduce amendments to bills. But she may have trouble reining in the Democrats’ appetite for revenge. There’s already talk of multiple investigations and impeachment of the president.

"No, impeachment is off the table," she says.

"And that's a pledge?" Stahl asks.

"Well, it's a pledge in the – yes, I mean, it's a pledge. Of course it is. It is a waste of time," she replies.

"Wouldn't they just love it, if we came in and our record as Democrats coming forth in 12 years, is to talk about George Bush and Dick Cheney? This election is about them. This is a referendum on them," Pelosi says. "Making them lame ducks is good enough for me."

8. Are they still passing budget & appropriations bills?
They are busy with a lot of unfinished budget business right now.
