Resolutions on impeachment are a waste of time! Prove me wrong. [View All]

Honestly people, I'm worried about these IL and CA resolutions being submitted under a Puke-controlled House. They'll die in committee.

Here's the process, according to Wikipedia:

A resolution impeaching a particular individual is typically referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. The House Committee on the Judiciary, by majority vote, will determines whether grounds for impeachment exist. If the Committee finds grounds for impeachment they will set forth specific allegations of misconduct in one or more "articles of impeachment." The Impeachment Resolution, or Article(s) of Impeachment, are then reported to the full House with the committee's recommendations.

Here's what worries me: When (if?) we gain control of the House in November, the same kind of resolution in spring 2007 (but coming from the House, rather than state legislatures) will have less momentum, since "we went through this in May 2006".

I just see this thing kind of fizzling out in the current House. Does that then hurt the chances of the "real" impeachment next year?
