Obama would LOVE to be impeached.
There’s ZERO chance a Dem controlled Senate would vote to convict him.
And the MSM would go ballistic supporting him and attacking Republicans.
Defeat Baraq Nov 2012.
Deport Baraq Jan 2013.

Not sure where I grabbed this from, but the basics mesh with the points that are made by this call, especially that last quote.
We the People Foundation had submitted a petition to various government agencies to answer various questions that the foundation thought were unconstitutional but have yet to receive a reply. They then sued in the District Court of D.C. to have their petitions answered. The D.C. Court, in We the People V United States Civil Action No. 04-1211 31 August 2005, ruled that:
"The Supreme Court, however, has held that the First Amendment does not impose any affirmative obligation on the government to listen, to respond or, in this context, to recognize the association and bargain with it." (Bold added)
The government has no obligation to listen or respond?
Does this sound like a government of, for, and by the people? Not to me! One of the primary reasons we went to war with England, among others, was the lack of response by the English government to the petitions of the American colonies. What good would it be to have a right of petition if the government could unilaterally ignore any petition it wished to ignore? When the people lose their voice in government and the government turns its back on its people, the people have no recourse but to remove that government and return it to its rightful state.
The D.C. ruling was appealed to the Appellate Court who ruled, not surprisingly, with the government upholding the right of the people to petition but that the government had no requirement to respond stating:
We need not resolve this debate, however, because we must follow the binding Supreme Court precedent. See Tenet v. Doe, 544 U.S. 1, 10-11 (2005). And under that precedent, Executive and Legislative responses to and consideration of petitions are entrusted to the discretion of those Branches.
In other words the Court has placed itself above the Constitution and its decisions are final. Others have argued that the previous decisions were based upon petitions against state officials not federal government, which was the basis of the prior decisions. This court, however, ruled that the meaning would apply regardless, based on the 14th Amendment guarantee of the First Amendment upon the states. The appellate Court stated:
the Supreme Court flatly stated that the First Amendment, which has been incorporated against the States by the Fourteenth Amendment, does not provide a right to a response to or official consideration of a petition. (Bold added)
Regardless of the reasons for the founding fathers to include the right of petition, the Appellate Court ruled the Fourteenth Amendment does not specify the requirement of a response, and therefore there is no requirement to do so. In effect the Fourteenth Amendment rewrote the Constitution for the benefit of the federal government and not for the protection of the people by establishing a predominate Federal Citizen above that of a state citizen. We now find ourselves in the same, if not worse, position than our country was in the year 1775.
President John F. Kennedy once said: "Those who make peaceful change impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." History and the future await our decision on where we go from here.

Thank you both...and you are very welcome.
Please feel free to spread it around, make posters, etc.
2012 has to be a banner year for conservatives. We are locked in a battle, a real battle for the very heart, soul and life of our Republic...and our liberty and very way of life. I pray that we prevail and double down on what occurred in 2010.
I pray we look back on 2012, for our kids and grandkids sake and speak of the "Yorktown" we won that year.
AMERICA AT THE CROSSROADS OF HISTORY
