13. I hear ya, but there are certain realities of politics at work now.
The republicans got a double (triple?) victory with the Clinton impeachment scandal. They impeached him, thereby discrediting a popular leader and impugning his party. They also made the spectacle of impeachment so dirty that Americans would be unwilling to try it again for decades. bastards!

I think Pelosi has played this issue smartly and I don't think Conyers or Murtha would do it if they were Speaker or Minority leader... regardless of what they say as party big shots in the house.
