OT: An example of exemplary reportage.
Sidney Coleman, perhaps the greatest of all US physics advisors (though John Wheeler is certainly in the running), died last Sunday in Cambridge, MA. Two years ago, when it was apparent that his time was not long, Harvard organized SidneyFest, a celebration of his life and work. Nine featured speakers; six were Nobelists and one was a Fields medalist. All were his friends, one or two of the Nobelists were his students.
The New York Times has yet to publish his obituary.
I wrote 'em to draw their attention to this lacuna. Answer received have I none.

“The politics of Iraq are going to change dramatically in the general election, assuming Iraq continues to show some hopefulness,” said Michael E. O’Hanlon, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who is a supporter of Mrs. Clinton’s and a proponent of the military buildup. “If Iraq looks at least partly salvageable, it will be important to explain as a candidate how you would salvage it — how you would get our troops out and not lose the war. The Democrats need to be very careful with what they say and not hem themselves in.”

You both are correct.

winger post compounding stupidity with ignorance to create more idiotic types of idiocy:
Instead, a new narrative -- a false one designed to place the U.S. in the least favorable light -- was seamlessly adopted. In the new false narrative, violence in Iraq is down because (a) there are no more victims to kill (they've all been killed or they fled the country) and (b) the Shiite militias ordered a cease fire and the Sunni tribes turned against al Qaeda. As such, the troop surge has nothing at all to do with it.

It's up to the House to decide. Majority of the House that would remove her would be able to vote for someone who supports impeachment.
The DNC and GOP both supported -- for whatever reason -- a resolution to force the Judiciary to impeach. That same majority can be persuaded to remove Pelosi. The GOP and DNC members could form a new caucus that supports removing Pelosi, making way for impeachment, and replacing her with someone that the DNC and GOP will both support.
Once subject to impeachment, but the President and VP cannot be pardoned. It wouldn't matter if the next Speaker becamse President. It's possible, if the VP were removed with a conviction in the Senate, that the Senate would not approve a replacement until the President was also convicted, making way for the next President to be the Speaker: Not Pelosi.

I would welcome any President -- female or male -- who puts the rule of law first.
There appears to be an impasse. The rule of law requires either prosecution or impeachment of this President and VP. The Congress is not helping.
There appears to be only one solution -- to remove the DNC speaker -- and make way for someone who supports impeachment. It's not an issue whether the current Speaker is or is not male; but whether she will or will not fully assert her oath. She appears -- through inaction on impeachment -- to have an alleged mental reservation. This is in alleged breache of her 5 USC 3331 legal duty.
Time for her to make way for impeachment; or for the public to open prosecution efforts against the Speaker. Let's get this investigation going, and stop with the excuseds for inaction.

It's very similar to the effort to pass proclamations to impeach, which Kucinich -- in part -- relied on. But these proclamations target the Speaker for removal. The idea is to put pressure on the House to take a vote on Pelosi, just as was done with the Cheney impeachment resolution.

That's the point -- to get Pelosi out, and make way for impeachment, the GOP and DNC (who supported the Kucinich proclamation on Cheney) could break ranks.
The idea: A majority of the House already oppose Pelosi: They voted to push teh resolution along. Now, it's time to call the GOP on their bluff.
If they vote to "keep" Pelosi in, how do they explain their vote in Jan 2007 to not support her? But if the GOP votes with the DNC (that support Kucinich/impeachment investigation), she's toast.
Time to remind Pelosi that some of the DNC can break ranks -- as was done with the Kucinich resolution -- and defy her.

Iran: No Smoking Gun but Strong Evidence
The accusations come almost every day from U.S. officials: Iran is seeking a nuclear weapon. Sponsoring terrorism. Killing Americans in Iraq. Intent on Israel's destruction. Yet, some officials add, its government will collapse if only given a push.
Does the U.S. have solid proof that Iran is guilty of such a long list of misdeeds? Or is the case against Iran - and the certainty of its ill intent - a bit fuzzy?
In the buildup to the Iraq war, the Bush administration made allegations against Saddam Hussein that polls show Americans believed, but which later proved wrong.
Now, with U.S. officials leading the pressure on Iran, many Americans are weighing the evidence. Is there a smoking gun or even a smoldering one?

You too, eh?
The lecturing tone is really tiresome.
In Tehran's traffic-clogged center, the walled compound down a leafy street is off-limits to ordinary Iranians. It is the nerve center of the country's supreme leader and hardline president.
No doubt the two are hostile to America. They also crave a nuclear program, seek influence across the Mideast and send money to Islamic militant groups.
They have never forgiven the U.S. for supporting Iran's shah, deposed nearly three decades ago. They tolerate only limited democracy under the boot of an Islamic theocracy. And one of them, the president, has attacked Israel in apocalyptic terms.
"We can never be reconciled," Hossein Shariatmadari, a hardline supporter of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said in a recent interview. "We are ideological enemies."
Indeed, the United States and Iran have been enemies since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, a bitter time of black-turbaned mullahs, screaming students, and blindfolded, helpless American hostages.
But both countries have changed. Brushing away the strident ideology and the distrust, what now are Iran's weapons and its intentions?

Great. Then there is no excuse to remove Pelois as Speaker; and forget about who the Speaker is: That next Speaker cannot pardon Bush, Cheney.

Unless Pelosi makes way for impeachment, it's time to seriously discuss proclamations calling on the House to remove her.

Is Pelosi the only obstacle? I'm open to other views on this. But we need to talk about a solution, not make excuses for inaction.
If Pelosi is not removed, then what will remove all the obstacles to impeachment? I think you'll see that there are no other options. She's not responding. We don't need to wait until the 2008 election.

Retailers Post Robust Start to Holidays
NEW YORK (AP) - The nation's retailers had a robust start to the holiday shopping season, according to results announced Saturday by a national research group that tracks sales at retail outlets across the country.
According to ShopperTrak RCT Corp., which tracks sales at more than 50,000 retail outlets, total sales rose 8.3 percent to about $10.3 billion on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, compared with $9.5 billion on the same day a year ago. ShopperTrak had expected an increase of no more than 4 percent to 5 percent.

Pelosi needs a credible threat of removal to wake her up: We need to have an impeachment investigation of the VP and President.
Ok, so I started thinking, Dog Chapman has been on his "bury me with the slaves tour" with is "Pastor" Tim Storey. So I was wondering what denomination this "pastor" is pastoring, to actually go on tv with that horrible bouty person and try to help codone the spew that was spewed.
So, I searched the Tim Storey, and this is the first page that came up, his own site:
http://storeystyle.com/index.html
Can anyone find the word Pastor on this page???? I can't!!
He says he is a cornerman, who will aid you in your fight through instruction!!
Why does he call himself a Pastor while trying to condone Dog's racism??? Is it part of his "cornermanning???"""

Nothing more. It's only about holding the President and VP to account with an impeachment investigation.
Pelosi appears to be blocking it. Then why not challenge the Speaker to unblock it: "Unless you unblock this, you're going ot face a vote in the HOuse to have you removed."

Incorrect. The presmise is: Once the DNC sees the GOP -- for whatever reason -- wants to "force" an impeachment, as they did by defying Pelosi and supporting the kucinich resolution -- Pelosi will see that the GOP opposes her; and that enough of the DNC will defy her, as was done with Kucinich's resolution.
To calim she is "invulnerable" to pressure is circular: That presumes she's still there.
- How do you explain the DNC-GOP vote to forward teh resolution?
I argue it doesn't matter why teh GOP did it: It's in there, the House Judiciary. Period.

No, there are two options to deal with legal issues of the President: Either imepachment or prosecution.
Congress refuses to impeach; and the nation refuses to prosecute.

This one isn't really Dave Eggers writing as Dave Eggers. It's Dave Eggers transcribing the story of Achak Deng. He did an excellent job of not getting in the way of Deng's voice, IMO. Of course, my only representation of Deng's voice is this book, so I don't know that...I do know that it wasn't Eggers' voice, though.

Ellroon,
Weren't you one of the people who said there would never be a state proclamation for impeachment? Here's what happened: That discussion at teh State level helped give support for Kucinich:
http://www.impeachbush.tv/impeac...ach/

The same idea is with this proclamation to remove Pelosi; it may generate discussion on the House floor, and get one Member of Congress to introduce a resolution.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm saying that it's premature to say nothing will happen.

I made a point of finding out where TJ's in St Louis was relative to the airport. It was my first stop after picking up the rental car. I bought a bag of stuff and sent it home with my mom, who drove up to Iowa last weekend, then picked it up from her on Thanksgiving after we got back here.
Really, it would be so much easier if TJ's would just go ahead and open a goddamned store here.

I'm only suggesting this: We don't have to wait until the 2008 election. We're not stuck. There are options to get this Kucinich resolution out of the Judiciary Committee, and have an investigaiton.
That's all I'm saying. Either Pelosi can clear the way, or we need to talk about other options to clear the way. I'm not seeing solutions.
I'm hearing excuses to do nothing, wait. That's more of the DNC-GOP non-sense.

Hi, all, hit'n'run post here from a not-so-frequent poster these days. I sent these little facts to TPM, so hopefully they'll feature them.
It's regarding the WaTimes attempt at parsing congressional districts to say the Democrats 'represent the wealthy' now. Greg Sargent laughed it away, but I went and looked up some #'s to see if they'd reinforce the point that the WaTimes was peddling ignorant bullshit.
http://www.techpolitics.org/cong...&
sort_order=asc
Apparently uses 2000 data in contrast to the WaTimes' 2003, but it's an easily grasped fact that the avg. income of a district's 800k or so people is not gonna change significantly in that time. (Outside of maybe New Orleans/2005. But that, obviously, doesn't enter into it here.)
It was a simple task to use Excel on the median household income numbers to come up with the following...
Average Dem district income: 42.1k
Average GOP district income: 44.8k
Enjoy throwing that one at your conservatard friends.

I have hard many reasons to do nothing. They are valid concerns. But as you have seen, they do not stand up.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm asking that we clear the way and allow the above discussion to occur on the House. Let the House Members go on the record to respond to state proclamations calling on the House to remove Pelosi.
If we are a nation of laws, then let the law prevail; let the law review. This Speaker appears to make excuseds to put something else before a full review. Let the House decide whether they want to support that; then the public will have information to prosecute -- where needed -- Members of Congress for alleged complicity for war crimes.
Force the House to react. let's top "waiting around". Elections are the time to have political accoutnability; but they have an eternal oath -- to always be accountable -- that continues bewteen elections. They're using "elections" as an excuse to do nothing.
No, we need to use non-voting options including prosecution and removal options to wake up Congress.

There are two issues:

2. The resolution to remove Pelosi.

Right, the Judiciary Committee can forward an impeachment investigation, but she's blocking it.
1. A resolution to remove the Speaker is preivildged, meaning it takes precedence. The Speaker cannot block it.
2. The issue of her removal is not an issue for the Judiciary Committee, but the entire House.

Ugh. Don't they knock you out for that?
Here's the short version of what's happened:
http://www.impeachbush.tv/
impeac...statebasis.html
1. The Stazte pressure on the Congress -- with the impeachment resolutions at teh state level -- woke up Congress
2. Kucinich relied on the groundswell of pubilc discussion related, in part, to this resolution process:
http://www.impeachbush.tv/
impeac...statebasis.html
3. The idea is to rely on the same process -- used to raise the impeachment issue at teh state level -- to now raise the question of removing the Speaker.
4. As with the Kucinich resolution on Cheney impeachment ivnestigaiton, something strange may happen: The GOP could support the effort to remove Pelosi, and form -- with the DNC who oppose Pelosi -- a new causus (Just on this issue), and clear the way for an investigation by removing Pelosi.
5. This not guranteed. It's just a way to get the issue on the table: What has to be done to clear the obstacles for an imipeachment investigation.
6. Here's what happened with the resolutions on the impeachment:
http://www.impeachbush.tv/
impeac...llowup_603.html
The idea is that the same pressure/discussion will also mobilize someone like Kucinich -- if not Kucinich himself -- to challenge the Speaker: "Madame Speaker, we either remove all the obstacles to impeachment; or we remove you. Let's vote."
Right, the Judiciary Committee can forward an impeachment investigation, but she's blocking it.
The next step is HEARINGS.
Maureen Dowd and Frank Rich are off today.
Well that is half good news anyway.

Pressure on judiciary to have hearings seems more plausible. There are not votes for impeachment now - but hearings have a chance of changing that.
Had my bladder scoped last week. Not pleasant, but it was fast. The doc used a topical anesthetic, for the entry basically. He gave me the option to be knocked out, but I was in a bit of a hurry. Whole thing took about a minute and a half. A little bit of irritation for a few hours afterward.

The first clown that scoped my bladder literally jammed the probe into my dick. I almost passed out.
I left grip marks on the sides of the metal gurney I was on.
The second time was with a different doc and the nurse asked me if I wanted to hold her hand. I declined.
2nd doc was much better.
I declined as I figured

You're asking for a foregone conclusion (about whether the Speaker will confirm she's still taken impeachment off the table). Good grief. There's nothing happening. No invsetigation. No open hearings. That "lack of evidence" is evidence: Nothing is happening. Time to turn the screws.
As to the concern that there is "another way", you're missing the point: This is not an "all or nothing" option. Many other options can be exercised.
You're free to either accept the information or not. But it is curious -- despite no information about progress -- that people would choose to do nothing; rather than consider the possibility fo clearing the way for impeachment. If you disagree with the reasons, discuss that; but if you want to make excuses to do nothing, that's more of teh same we've had since 2001.
How much more do you want:
http://willyloman.wordpress.com/...of-impeachment/
Wouldn't a credible threat of removal -- "either clear the way for impeachment; or you're out" -- wake someone up? Go ahead and write more letters. They. Are. Not. Responding. Time to use some other options.
You're choosing inaction. Fine. Give me your reasons for not taking action. You're free to work on a General strike. That's your option.
Not asking you to agree or disagree with the idea: Simpel discuss what can be done to force this discussion into the House. Make the DNC and GOP go on the record.

Not asking you to stop on other things. Just asking you to openly discuss other options, including removing the Speaker to make way for impeachment. Multiple options are needed.

That's not an argument for or against the effort to discuss proclamations c alling on the House to remove Pelosi, and make way for impeachment.
Time to stop debating this outisde the House; and stime to get the Congress to take up the issue: Are they, or are they not serious about defending the Constitution?

What happens when "more of the same: Nothing" happens? Don't wait to have them say, "Oh, we didn't get around to that." There's nothing happening.
Time to get some more options on the table: Openly discuss removing the Speaker to make way for impeachment investigations.

Inaction is evidence: Where there is no evidence -- of teh Speaker openly recanting what she said, "WE took impeachment off the table," -- then that is presumed to continue.
- Where are the hearings/investigations? Nothing.
- Why hasn't Pelosi changed her tune? Nothing. Sheehand is still pressuring her, many letters (10,000) and nothing.
How many more lines of evidence do you want: They're not responding. Time to make the DNC-GOP Concgress to respond to We the People.

You have a better suggestion or solution, other than, "Ignore this"?
Right, the Judiciary Committee can forward an impeachment investigation, but she's blocking it.
Citation?
NTodd, Boxer-Briefed | Homepage | 11.24.07 - 9:55 pm |
Are you asking for:
- A citation for the proclamation process;
- A citation for precedents on impeachment;
- A citation for a proclamation to remove the Speaker;
- A citation about the process related to the Kucinich resolution in re Cheney impeachment;
- Evidence that the Speaker -- despite failing to recant, "We've taken impeachment off the table -- is still blocking an investigation?
What are you specifically asking for?
