I mainly think they did not pursue impeachment because they didn't see a political plus for the Dems in it.
One would think that winning the presidency and senate, and keeping control of the US house, might be considered a "political plus." And it would be, by anyone other than the national Democratic party. Now, thanks to Reid and Pelosi's refusal to impeach, end war funding, or stop illegal domestic wiretapping, the congressional Democrats' are polling at 11 percent. It takes some real effort to be even less popular than our war criminal president, but damn, they've sure managed to do it.
At any rate, Pelosi needs to be removed from office immediately and tried for conspiracy to cover up war crimes. Maybe if she's made the poster child for this, the rest of the Democrat pack will remember they tooka n oath to preserve and defend the US constitution, not (as they seem to think) an oath to preserve and defend the Bush/Cheney neocons.

I'm sending a nice check to Cindy Sheehan's campaign to defeat Pelosi this week.
