the Congresses oxymoronic rating is 9 points below Bush, I don’t think they will try anything that radical.

Congress’s aproval rating is so terribly in the tank because, having switched control, they still aren’t confronting the issues that the public wants confronted – at least not at the pace the public wants them to take.
The latest drop in Congressional approval is almost entirely due to a decline in the approval of Democratic voters, BTW.
Incredible Flash satire: http://www.markfiore…
The problem with the impeachment option is that you either get Cheney instead of Bush, supposing that you are successful, or if you go for a “twofer” Nancy Pelosi becomes President and the Dems get opened up for charges of a “coup” and/or overturning the ’04 results just before the ’08 elections and in any case, risk the kind of blowback that lost the Republicans seats in ’98.
The fact of the matter is that the current Dem leadership confused opposition with governance. Now that they have to take responsibility for the results of their actions, they don’t have the courage to act on what they said was their convictions.
Let them lead – let them have the courage of their convictions to submit solid Progressive legislation (including insertion of the transfer of energy tax breaks from oil to renewables into the conference committee report on the Energy Budget). And God grant them the courage to actually go after these lawbreaking, uncaring “leaders’ in the administration, too. There’s room for both.
Why aren’t they doing either?
About the Iraq Supplementary, I didn’t; I distrusted the process from the start.
The Energy bill is different; I think it’s got a lot of potential to be a really strong bill. I also see some hope in the way Waxman, Conyers, and Leahy in particular are going after details in various scandals and officials. (It would be four people if the chair of the Senate Oversight Committee weren’t Bush’s best buddy Lieberman…)
to lose sight of the fact that the Dems can flex a little muscle in the House, but not the Senate. And there is always little boy George with his veto pen. Quit trying to pass of Republican obstructionism as the Democrats inability to lead.
So Bush is now in “Nixon territory”? At least Tricky Dick did the honorable thing and stepped down his time came…..
Nixon hit 24%, IIRC. Bush has a couple of points to go yet, but he’s getting there…
