Nancy Pelosi Slams Contempt Vote: 'I Could Have Arrested Karl Rove ... But We Didn't' [UPDATE]

If Republicans are so bad (and I think they are), why did Pelosi and Democrats not arrest Rove and take impeachment off the table?  Why is Obama blocking all investigations and prosecutions into the Bush-Cheney administration?  Perhaps if Bill Clinton hadn't done the same thing for the Reagan-Bush administration over Iran-Contra, we wouldn't have been saddled with Bush-Cheney at all.

When Obama came into power, the GOP wasn't on the ropes; it was down for the count.  And Obama issued them a pardon.  The rightwing attacking Obama and their refusal to work in "a bipartisan manner" should have pushed Obama to play hardball and move populist legislation through Congress quickly and decisively.  To undo the Bush-Cheney abuses, especially with the tentative hold on a filibuster-proof majority Democrats were given in the 2008 election.  Instead, Obama let Republicans dictate the pace and shape a debate that was already done and voted on and won by Democrats in 2008.  

Obama (nor Pelosi nor Reid) expresses absolutely no remorse or plans to do anything differently should he win reelection.
