Don't forget, those Sunni who left the government are probably connected to the ones we're arming and training to fight shi'a insurgents... so this particular news is even more ominous than it sounds on the front.
The thing that really bites me right now is that impeachment power doesn't rest in the hand of democrats. It rests in the hand of 17-18 (depending on whether or not that Democratic senator with brain cancer is back and voting. No, I'm not counting Lieberman in our numbers) Republicans. :/
Though I sort of wish that the proceedings WOULD start, so we could force them to show where they're standing.
