Yesterday, Senator Durbin had a town hall meeting in Metropolis, Il and during the Q&A he said something interesting that I have not heard from anyone yet including Obama.

He was asked if he spoke much with Nancy Pelosi and if so, has she
given him a good reason as to why impeachment is off the table.
Durbin responded that there's too little time left, too much to do, to
pursue impeachment at this time. However, he had it on good
authority, (he's in contact with Obama daily), that when Obama takes
office, the new Justice Dept. would be charged with investigating the
criminal activities of the Bush Administration.

If this is true then criminal indictments of top officials in the
criminal enterprise occupying the Oval Office could end in worse
consequences for the thugs than impeachment.

Just this week Ron Suskind has released his new book, "The Way of the
World" in which top officials he interviewed in the Bush
Administration admit to a criminal conspiracy to forge documents that
would justify the invasion of Iraq.

Although I prefer impeachment if for no other reason that another
Repub administration would do the same if they think there are no
consequences, but still....here's hoping.
