I would be nice if she actually did try to impeach Bush. Unfortunately, she's said she wont' do that. And we all know how politicians keep ALL of their campaign promises! Tee Hee.
Yeah, but you didn't hear her makin' any promises about CHENEY did ya? ;)
(In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Pelosi and Bush were already negotiating a 'plea bargain' today at lunch. The deal is benificial to both sides. The Dems impeach Cheney, but leave Bush alone. That way at least SOMEBODY takes the 'hit' for the Iraq disaster (and who better than "I really do believe we'll be greeted as liberators"?), thus allowing the country to move on, emotionally, and Bush gets to nominate some sexy (and untainted) new Republican VP, who will get some free publicity to be his successor in 2008. My personal guess is that Bush is going to throw Cheney under the bus, and then appoint McCain to be VP.
Well, there goes Rumsfeld (finally!). Looks like we'll be seeing Cheney running for prez (McCain's too honest to be nominated imo). Ah, Dick Cheney. The man makes Dr. Strangelove look reasonable in comparison.
FYI: (from random google searching. I'll double check at work with our policy)
A pre-existing condition exclusion period is a period of time during which your insurer is not obligated to pay claims related to your pre-existing condition.
A pre-existing condition is a medical condition for which medical advice, diagnosis, care, or treatment was recommended or received within the 6-month period before your enrollment date in an employer’s group health plan.
If you had a medical condition in the past, but have not received any medical advice, diagnosis, care or treatment (or any recommendation to seek such care) within the 6 months prior to your enrollment date in the plan, your old condition cannot be considered a pre-existing condition. Moreover, pregnancy cannot ever be considered a pre-existing condition under employer-sponsored group health plans.
Your enrollment date is your first day of coverage, or if there is a waiting period to get into the plan, the first day of the waiting period.
If you are in an employer-sponsored group health plan, your plan must notify you if it has a pre-existing condition exclusion period (and can only exclude coverage for a pre-existing condition after you have been notified). The plan must also notify you of your right to show that you have prior creditable coverage to reduce the pre-existing condition exclusion period.
In most states, the rules governing pre-existing condition exclusion periods for individual health insurance policies are very different from group health plan rules.
In most states, individual insurance policies can turn you down for coverage altogether if you have a pre-existing condition. Or, your policy might permanently exclude your pre-existing condition. For more information about pre-existing condition exclusion periods, please refer to your state consumer guide.
