Pelosi vs. Conyers: To Impeach Or Not To Impeach, That Is The Question
To impeach, or not to impeach: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous elections,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
and employment of countless lawyers,
And by opposing provide ample fodder for the press?
To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That the electorate is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To elect Republicans, to elect Democrats;
To sleep and perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that election what folly may come
When we have elected a government deserving of
All of us, before we shuffled off this mortal coil... and
Elect a bevy of partisan hacks, more interested in power
Than in effective government and government not
Willing to bow down to terroristic threats. Ahh, to vote
Republican or no. Aye, I have made my mind, I cannot
See this great republic ground down by scoundrels worse
Than the ones currently in place.
Nay! Consulting the stars gives one pause, and I shall
Vote Republican, for that is my wont and I fear
The coming of a Conyers or his mistress Nancy of Pelosiville.
AND IF THEY TAKE CONTROL:
But wait, what lawyer through yonder window sneaks?
It is the beast, Pelosi is the Hun
arise there Hun
and impeach the perceived goon
who is already lame, with duck webbed feet

A portrait of America 2010, following Bush's impeachment and a Democratic presidential election victory in 2008:
Bin Laden, heir of Fortinbras, gazing upon the still smoking ruins of the Capitol, addresses his retinue...
O proud death,
Feast on today in thine eternal cell,
For by my words so many princes at a shot
So bloodily thou hast struck...
For me, with joy I embrace my fortune:
By the Prophet's blessed command
I have some rights of memory in this kingdom,
Which now to claim my vantage doth invite me.

Republicans are coming home because they are beginnig to realize exactly WHO will be in charge of the House of Representatives if Democrats seize control in two weeks.
Nancy Pelosi with her liberal San Francisco "values" are not the values traditional values voters want to take control of Congress. These conservatives see tax increases afloat and sense that a "new direction" in Iraq would lead to a humiliating defeat for Americans. They don't want to retreat our armed forces to a cut-n-run policy heading toward Okinawa, Japan, as John Murtha suggested that we do.
Charles Rangel, who would be the new chairman of the power ways and means committee said that ALL of President Bush's tax cuts were on the table (ie higher taxes) to increase federal spending income to "balance" the federal deficit.
Republicans know that they had better vote Republcian or liberal San Franciso 'values' will win on Novemver 7th.

Anyone that earns in the $40-70,000 range go ahead and vote to send $2,000 to $4,000 more to the government each year. Everyone (families) under $30,000 that don't pay any federal taxes now will be welcome to send a couple of thousand to the fed's, where it will immediately disappear into Peloshi and friends pocket.
That is exactly what a vote for a democrat will do. First bill out of congress.
