Democrats Growing A Pair?

Well....let's not go that far. Keith Olbermann had a Constitutional scholar on last night about the Vice President's argument that he won't be complying with the recent subpoena's I spoke of yesterday. The scholar states that this might be an impeachable offense, which is pretty much every liberals wet dream right now.

However, do you think they'll follow through with it? Do you think they've suddenly grown a backbone and said "this is a crime, and Bush needs to be impeached for it"? Probably not, however, if someone believes that a crime has been committed, they have the moral duty to the American public to investigate and call for impeachment regardless of political party.

Of course Democrats usually aren't interested in doing "what's right", they are usually more interested in what keeps them in power or gains them more power. They'll come back with an argument like "we don't have enough votes to impeach" or something like that.

That's the same thing as if you saw two men attacking a woman and her child and you did nothing because "there's two of them and only one of me". If you do nothing, you're just as bad as those who attacked that woman and her child. Sure, you might get your ass kicked, but people will have a significantly larger amount of respect for you had you tried.

Now, I don't know the exact legality of the things they are talking about, maybe Cheney's right, maybe Democrats are right, but if they think a crime has been committed, they have the moral duty to do something about it. That's part of the job they were elected for.
