Defiant Conyers Pushes Impeachment

John Conyers has BDS so bad that he isn't behaving anything like Nancy Pelosi wants. Here's the message on Conyers' website:
CONYERS RELEASES REPORT ON MISCONDUCT OF BUSH ADMINISTRATION CONCERNING IRAQ WAR

H. Res. 635, H. Res 636, H. Res 637

Calls for the creation of a Select Committee to make recommendations, if warranted, regarding grounds for possible impeachment

and the censure of President Bush and Vice President Cheney
Here's a glimpse at his press release:

"In brief, we have found that there is substantial evidence the President, the Vice-President and other high ranking members of the Bush Administration misled Congress and the American people regarding the decision to go to war in Iraq; misstated and manipulated intelligence information regarding the justification for such war; countenanced torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment in Iraq; and permitted inappropriate retaliation against critics of their Administration. There is at least a prima facie case that these actions that federal laws have been violated from false statements to Congress to retaliating against Administration critics.""
In response to the Report, I have already taken several initial steps. First, I have introduced a resolution (H. Res. 635) creating a Select Committee with subpoena authority to investigate the misconduct of the Bush Administration with regard to the Iraq war and report on possible impeachable offenses. In addition, I have introduced Resolutions regarding both President Bush (H. Res. 636) and Vice-President Cheney (H. Res. 637) proposing that they be censured by Congress based on indisputable evidence of unaccounted for misstatements and abuse of power in the public record. There are a number of additional recommendations in the Report that I expect to be taking up in the coming weeks and months.
Does anyone in their right mind think that House Democrats would take seriously their duties of crafting legislation when they've got the worst case of BDS known to mankind? They wouldn't take their consitutitonal responsibilities seriously because they're totally invested in impeaching the President and Vice President.

Here's something from the Newsmax article:
Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly insisted to the Washington Post on Friday that his boss had "told her caucus members during their weekly closed meeting Wednesday that impeachment is off the table; she is not interested in pursuing it." Daly also claimed that Conyers "agrees with Pelosi's thinking" that Democrats would be better off pursuing other issues and forgetting about impeachment.
Brendan Daly can say whatever he likes on this but it doesn't comport with reality. Conyers is still trotting out the same garbage that's been discredited by almost every blogger out there.

Mark my words on this: When people see how deranged representatives like Conyers are, they'll run away from them like the devil was chasing them. Take that to the bank.

The post that caught my attention dealt with last weekend's interview of Justin and Darryl Sharraltt on Hannity's America. To say that their post didn't attempt to refute Justin's story is understatement. In fact, they jump right into criticizing Mr. Hannity: Last night's (October 27th) Hannity's America was a strange magazine format which combined stories about mediums and haunted houses
