It is a mess when a man making less than $30,000 a year pays toward their incredible salaries and benefits and they do nothing of any consequence for their voters except those with huge contributions. It is a shame.

Justi, Saul_relative gave a good answer.   But, his good answer does not really make anything any better.  What a mess it all seems to me.

It is a crime that we pay them so much and they work so little (all of them). This is what is making our country so stupid. People hate war. Hate a president for going to war and  haven't the intelligence to see this is nothing but another kind of war.  The hatred some have for Bush is beyond anything one man could do, it is a sort of war. I find that incomprehensible anybody elected to do a job would knife those who elected them in the back just to keep their political agenda. Pelosi is an incredibly wealthy idiot. Excuse me  but I could no hate anyone that much and I don't want to learn to do so.

Impeachment ploys this late in the lame duck's presidency are simple

reminders of the crap an unpopular president has allowed to happen on his watch.  It's big picture politics.  They know impeachment proceedings will take far longer than Bush has left to go.  Besides, according to CNN, the House has less than 35 working days left on its calendar before the election (and none between Election Day and the inauguration), so when are they going to find time to do it?  No, Kucinich (a couple weeks ago) and Pelosi (among others) are simply dredging up political sore spots to taint McCain's run.  Nothing more, nothing less.  If you want Congress to do something, you will have to vote in a clear majority of one party or the other.  As it stands now, they're deadlocked.  Republicans filibuster everything and the Democrats can't get veto-less majorities, so they're in political gridlock...
