The White House is refusing to let special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald turn over to congressional investigators key documents from his investigation into the leak of Valerie Plame's identity as a covert CIA operative, including reports of interviews with President Bush, Vice President Cheney and five top White House aides.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Henry Waxman disclosed this morning that Fitzgerald is cooperating with the congressional investigation and had agreed to turn over the documents -- until the White House intervened.
Because you know, Nancy (can I call you Nancy? you are after all paid by me) as long as you maintain this ridiculous "Impeachement is off the table" crap, you are doing nothing but allowing yourself and Congress to be played. Over and over and over again. Do you enjoy that? Do you like it? Are you perhaps protecting that sweet lobbying gig that might not be available to you if you are the First Woman Speaker to have Impeached, if in fact that happens?
There is no excuse anymore for not going after these assholes hammer and tongs, and now that's coming to mean the Pelosi-Emmanuel wing of the Democratic party as well as the republican enablers of Beloved Leader.
Perhaps a third-party might be warranted: An Impeachment Party.
