WASHINGTON -- Anxious to chart a centrist course with Democrats' new majority in Congress, incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her top deputies are busily working in private and public to rein in the liberal ambitions of some senior party heavyweights --including proposals to reinstate the military draft and end the Pentagon's ban on gays in uniform.
Pelosi has urged House Democrats, including incoming committee chairmen, to use the first weeks of next year's congressional term to focus exclusively on proposals on which the party is unified and legislative goals that are within reach, according to Pelosi allies and aides.
Yesterday, Pelosi and the incoming House majority leader, Representative Steny Hoyer, quashed talk of reinstating the draft one day after Representative Charles Rangel said he will file a bill to make that happen. Rangel, a New York Democrat, is in line to become chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, one of the most powerful posts in Congress. "The speaker and I have discussed scheduling; it did not include that," said Hoyer, a Maryland Democrat.
Already, House Democratic leaders have extracted a promise from the incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Representative John Conyers Jr. of Michigan, to rule out impeaching President Bush. Conyers is the lead sponsor of a bill that would investigate whether to recommend "grounds for possible impeachment."

He should have written: Already, House Democratic leaders have extracted a promise from the incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Representative John Conyers Jr. of Michigan, to rule out attempting to impeach President Bush.
'cause it ain't a done deal.
I suspect all this "moderation" is killing 'ole Nancy. Forcing her to be something she isn't. Prediction: this will change by next June.
What about it? She isn't speaker until January.
I know that. The above does not sound like it meets with that agenda.
..............Prediction: this will change by next June.

Yep, one veto, and it will be:
"Hang him from the yardarm!"
That's because anyone in govt. is an enemy of the free man.
Yup. That and Nancy doesn't exactly have an iron grip over her members.
Riiiiiiiiiiiight, she'll rein them in just like she did for the Murtha / Hoyer vote. Her nomination of Murtha shows just how "center" is her aim. /sarc
No. She's trying to steer the nation to the left.
Yeah... She's steering them toward the center, allright....
The center of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Castro.
Who are these people trying to kid?
