Here it comes. This is what happens when you put malignant kooks in positions of power and responsibility. From Fox News:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is receptive to the idea of prosecuting some Bush administration officials, while letting others who are accused of misdeeds leave office without prosecution, she told Chris Wallace in an interview on “FOX News Sunday.”
“I think you look at each item and see what is a violation of the law and do we even have a right to ignore it,” the California Democrat said. “And other things that are maybe time that is spent better looking to the future rather than to the past.”
This is the ultimate – and vindictive – objective of the Soros-Kos-moonbat crowd – moral dwarfs all. They’ve never gotten over the 2000 election and have been looking for their revenge ever since.
But the guy really leading the charge is John Conyers: a dwarf-in-waiting for many a long year.
Rep. John Conyers, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, announced Friday he wants to set up a commission to look into whether the Bush administration broke the law by taking the nation to war against Iraq and instituting aggressive anti-terror initiatives. The Michigan Democrat called for an “independent criminal probe into whether any laws were broken in connection with these activities.”
But what do we know about John Conyers? A lot, actually.
He’s a committed leftist from Detroit and bitterly partisan. He’s been an advocate for reparations, submitting a bill in every session of Congress since 1989. He’s been a constant opponent of the war on Islamic radicalism, opposed the war in Iraq and the administration’s terrorist surveillance programs and has continually agitated for impeachment – right up to the election and even after. He assiduously carries water for CAIR (he represents Dearbornistan, after all). In August 2008, Andrew McCarthy described his activities :
He is, famously, the most hardcore of left-wing partisans, a hero to the Democrat party’s fifth-column, antiwar base. The House Judiciary Committee chairman’s days are chockablock with corruption quests; the ACLU, CAIR — so many interest groups need water carrying. If it’s not the Bush White House, it’s the FBI; if it’s not the NSA, it’s the Justice Department. Interrogation, surveillance, the Patriot Act — you name it, he’s against it, and he’s investigating it.
All this, and still he must find time to manage ethics investigations against … himself. In 2006, a Conyers aide reaffirmed longstanding complaints that this pillar of rectitude induced staffers to babysit his children, perform various household chores, and work on state and local Michigan political campaigns — all on the public dime.
His wife – a Detroit council woman – is a real piece of work: she’s variously been in a bar fight (2005), threatened to shoot a mayor’s aide (2007) and is currently under federal investigation for taking bribes (2008).
And this is the pillar of rectitude who wants to prosecute members of the Bush administration – up to and including the president himself and Dick Cheney.
I’d like to see the gelded Republicans get a pair and go after this guy – and his kangaroo court. Probably wishful thinking, however.
