1. She wants power
To that end, she does what's politically advantageous.

2. If she wants power, why take impeachment off the table?
I'm not buying it, O.R.

8. How many favors would impeachment cost her?
We have to remember that it's the rare politician who works for We, the People, but for They, the Corporate Board Members and Those, the Deals.

9. Ahhh....see, the problem there is
that I was taking the naive view of power from the Constituion, and you were (quite appropriately) taking the real-world view.

I completely agree with you on that.

5. She isn't using the power she has
Except to help the bu$h regime get everything they want.

For god sake, if it were power she were after, she could have bu$h's head.

3. Nancy Pelosi loves Nancy Pelosi
The perks, the position, the image, the limelight, the parties, the hob-nobbing, the campaign donations, and the wheeling and dealing. I doubt Nancy thinks enough about America's interests to really take time to hate it. Fortunately, there are still brave individuals in our Congress like Linda and Loretta Sanchez who voted no, even though they represent much more conservative parts of California than Pelosi. Courage and selflessness in a politician has always been a rare trait and it's extremely rare in our Democratic leadership.

4. AT&T has a very big....
presence here in SF -- multiple offices and AT&T Park. She's protecting a City Sugar Daddy.

And fuck her sideways for it. :mad:

6. Nancy Pelosi is an enabler. She has a co-dependency on Bush.
