Torn

Here's a excerpt of a story about Democrat Robert Wexler:

Last night, Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) took to the House floor to urge the House Judiciary Committee to begin impeachment hearings into Vice President Cheney for “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Wexler, who has already acquired nearly 190,000 supporters through his website, explained his next steps
I think both Bush and Cheney need to be impeached. It's an accountability issue, despite the fact that their terms are nearly over.

But.....

As I read these stories, they're getting more and more out-of-synch. Voters are focused on the primaries and the next President, not on Bush. The current moron-in-chief is seen as just that by 80% of the American public. The only real legislative power he has is due to the weakness of Congressional Democrats. Having the likes of Wexler continue to hammer on impeachment sounds a bit out-of-touch, behind the curve. And that's not good political theater.
