Out of the Void

Searching for Meaning and Truth

Bet You Haven’t Seen Any of This on Mainstream News

On 25 July 2008, the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives had a hearing to discuss issues related to the impeachment of the president.

C-Span aired this hearing and you can hear it here. The above video is only one of 29 videos posted on the playlist by “cspander” (You Tube).

I have not seen any reporting of this on my local TV stations News programs…have you?

Many voices call for impeachment.  Yet, we are told by Ms. Pelosi that it is “off the table”.

I have heard that it is off the table because they have “more important things to do”…If you have a bull in the china cabinet, breaking all the china, what is more important than getting the bull out of the china cabinet?  Picking up the broken china?

I have heard that it is off the table because there could be a political backlash against the Democrats for impeaching the president…If the “We the People” elected them to do a job and they fail to do that job, would that not be grounds for political backlash?  If “We the People” elected them to represent us and they ignore our call to impeach, will that not create a political backlash?  Unless, of course, they are not really working for us…we just pay their salaries.  One more important point…do we want elected officials who are more worried about “political backlash” than doing the right thing?

I have heard it said that to impeach would be embarassing.  What?  What is more embarassing – to ignore what the rest of the world can clearly see or to do the right thing and clean up the mess?

I don’t know anymore.  The world seems to have gone insane.  Maybe it is just me.
