I admire Dennis Kucinich for sticking up for principle over politics. His efforts to impeach President George W. Bush continue onward, though almost everyone believes it will not come to much.

Politically, Democrats in Congress might be right. If they all jumped on board, they might jeopardize their chances in the Senate, House and White House in the fall. It's a roll of the dice that might not be worth it in the long run. But there are a whole lot of Democratic voters who would be mightily impressed by the effort, that's for sure.

It's probably important that this is at least going on the record. Because I fear that nearly the entire administration is going to mostly get away with everything they've done. Since we have to rely on karma to take over, at least there will be a Congressional record of many of their abuses.
