Sham impeachment hearing – final thoughts

Thursday, I called Friday’s House Judiciary impeachment hearing a sham, above all for the reason that no impeachment vote were actually to be allowed, but for the number of people banned from the witness list.

Friday, I noted how the hearings turned out to be even more of a sham, from the self-censorship of chair John Conyers (and Dennis Kucinich, too!) on not using the word “impeachment,” to protestors getting the boot for protesting the shamness of it all.

“Have you no sham, Nancy Pelosi?”

Then, Friday night, I toured might be considered the four top liberal blogs — TPM, Washington Monthly, Atrios and the Orange Monster.

Any wrap-up at all, by them? Any blogging, as opposed to straight news on TPM, lead-in? Nope.

Guess it was either too embarrassing, or they too are non-idealistic enough to treat it as small beer.
