A lawless 21st Century begins in earnest - compliments of W Bush. Then come the enablers - those sworn in to serve, defend the Constitution, and uphold our laws and treaties, but lacking the will, resolve, and strength, to maintain justice and respect for the rule of law in the early decades of the new Century:
Nancy Pelosi - "as I've always said impeachment is off the table" for W Bush and his associates.
Harry Reid - "impeaching the president is so far-fetched it's ridiculous".
Barack Obama - "no one is above the law", but a "need to look forward" - thereby dooming any respect for justice and the rule of law in the early decades of the new Century.
John Boehner - expressed no interest in impeaching the Republican President W Bush citing "more pressing matters at hand" - however, quickly voted to impeach Democrat President Bill Clinton.
