Impeachment - What Nancy REALLY said.

I feel a clarification is necessary again as Nancy's "off the table" comment gets so much attention. Let's look at the depth of her comments before the election.

A lot has been made of soon-to-be Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s claim that impeachment is “off the table” but it is critical to note that in a Washington Post interview…

‘ …Pelosi said a Democratic-controlled House would launch investigations of the administration on energy policy and other matters. She said impeachment would not be a goal of the investigations, but she added: “You never know where it leads to.”

...

The reason it is the best choice to minimize the threat of impeachment is that investigations will now ensue with full subpoena power in the hands of John Conyers, whose already published report: “George W. Bush versus the U.S. Constitution - The Downing Street Memos and Deception, Manipulation, Torture, Retribution, and Coverups in the Iraq War and Illegal Demestic Spying” makes perfectly clear where it should lead - full accountability for multiple crimes and misdemeanors for the President, Vice President and his administration:

Nancy Pelosi has more on her plate than any speaker in recent history, and she's taking this one step at a time. I think some underestimate the good speaker as well as her partner in justice, The Honorable John Conyers? ;)

"You never know where it leads to ..." I think Nancy knows. I think we all know.
