Treason No Reason

 
Newt Gingrich’s reason for leading the effort to impeach Clinton was, "Because we can."   No matter how much Bush and Cheney deserve to be impeached and convicted, the chances of this are slim to none.  Just to impeach in the House takes 218 votes.  How many Repugnants do you suppose might vote to impeach Bush and/or Cheney?   Two-thirds of the Senate is needed to convict.  There is some benefit gained from publicity about impeaching Bush and Cheney, but both are as unpopular as they’re going to get, and neither is running in 2008.
