Cynthia McKinney, leaving the House, files a purely symbolic bill to impeach the President:

In what was likely her final legislative act in Congress, outgoing Georgia Rep. Cynthia McKinney introduced a bill Friday to impeach President Bush.

The legislation has no chance of passing and serves as a symbolic parting shot not only at Bush but also at Democratic leaders. Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has made clear that she will not entertain proposals to sanction Bush and has warned the liberal wing of her party against making political hay of impeachment.

As long as we’re dwelling in the world of symbols, allow me to symbolically lob (if only rhetorically) a sulpherous, rotten egg at Cynthia McKinney’s gibbering face.

In my mind, it made such a symbolic spatter.
