Because the Republicans had a much larger majority hold on Congress back then than the Democrats do now. While a large number of Republicans are disgusted with Shrub and what he has done, they haven't yet reached the tipping point where they would go along with impeachment proceedings.
That's the simplest reason why there won't be any impeachment.
Also, we are a little more then 18 months away from electing a new President and both Democrats and Republicans who are now running or who may jump in the race later have no desire to be dealing with impeachment proceedings and hearings when they also need to be out on the campaign trail.
