During an interview on "The View," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dismissed Joy Behar’s question about why she is refusing to hold impeachment hearings by saying “If somebody had a crime that the president had committed, that would be a different story.“ (Newsbusters)

Pelosi’s blatant disregard for the rule of law when it comes to this administration has been evident from day one. When she first took our constitutional provision of impeachment “off the table,“ she effectively re-wrote the Constitution to suit her own personal agenda. She gave away the only tool to hold the president in check. The founders of this once great nation knew that, without this important restraint, any president could seek an imperial level of control that even King George himself didn’t have. And Pelsoi gave that oversight away.
Or should we say, she sold it.
One-and-a-half years ago, when the call for impeachment really took off, Nancy Pelosi argued that they had to “build the case” so that it was clear to the American people that it wasn’t a partisan attack. One year ago she claimed they “didn’t have the votes.“ Six months ago she claimed there “wasn’t enough time.“ And now, remarkably, Nancy Pelosi, leader of the Democratic Party in the House, is further covering up for the rogue presidency of George W. Bush by claiming on a national television show that Bush and Cheney haven’t committed any crimes.
This just days after some 12 people came before the House Judiciary Committee and brilliantly testified to the numerous obvious crimes committed by the Bush administration.
Pelosi made this remarkable comment because she knows that very few people actually watched the CSPAN coverage of the “non-impeachment” hearing and certainly not that many people watch "The View." So, she was able to misinform millions of "The View’s" audience without regard for the small percentage that would see through her propaganda.
And that is the point; as long as they can keep the majority of Americans in the dark for just a little while longer, then they can ride out the call to investigate this criminal administration, wait for time to pass and people to forget the facts as they re-write the history, and prepare for the next imperial presidency that will again be unincumbered by the rule of law.
Because that is the end result, people. That is why she took impeachment off the table; from the very beginning she was protecting the 1%ers that this criminal administration serves.
She is not the leader of the Opposition Party, but rather, she is a co-conspirator of the most criminal administration in the history of this nation. >>>cont
