From the Chronicle:
That ought to make the ITMFA crowd happy.
Look, impeachment is only useful if there's a snowball's chance in hell that it will actually result in removal. The impeachniks need to start camping out at the offices of Senate Republicans, and leave Nancy Pelosi alone.
The speaker said she had "no hesitation" criticizing the president about his handling of the war, but said there were more important priorities for lawmakers -- such as health care and creating jobs -- than the divisive pursuit of impeachment.
"Look, it's hard enough for us to end the war. I don't know how we would be successful in impeaching the president," Pelosi said.
She did note that calls for the president's removal are not coming just from San Francisco.
"I'm not unsympathetic to the concern people have -- I hear it all over the country. People here have said to me, 'Well, people on the left want the president to be impeached.' I hear it across the board across the country. It's not just the left," Pelosi said.
