he needs to be voted out as speaker. but I believe that is a year away.

But thanks to Harry Reid and the nuclear option, wouldn’t it be more possible now if we took the Senate in November?

Worth a try

Hey, Bud. If you need a light for your next cigarette just use that fire and brimstone in the back of your cell.

The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present. Judgment in Cases of Impeachments shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust, or Profit under the United States, but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment, and Punishmnet, according to Law.

The nuclear option does not help in this situation, because conservatives actually follow the Constitution.

I’m for it but the Senate isn’t so not gonna happen.

[JimRed]

It’s racist just to mention the “I” word while Obama is in office.

I’m not holding my breath either. And, sure, it would be better timed after victorious 2014 elections. But whether it would be guaranteed of success or not, when nothing is guaranteed, seems to me to be less important than doing the right thing. Fiat justitia ruat caelum.
