Enough is enough. We’re calling for the Impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama. And if you agree, you can join us right now.

Right here and right now, you can add your voice to ours... and add your name to the Articles of Impeachment against Barack Hussein Obama.

Why are we calling for the Impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama?

Radio-personality Tammy Bruce may have said it best:


“... ultimately, it comes down to... the fact that he seems to have, it seems to me, some malevolence toward this country, which is unabated.”


Oh... there are many reasons to call for the impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama and there is more than just cause to call for his impeachment.

But as Bruce said, Obama’s “unabated malevolence toward this country, which is unabated” makes it all the more imperative that we take action now... without delay.

How long must we wait... how long should we sit back and permit Barack Hussein Obama to rip apart the fabric of this country before we take action?
Are you terrified at Barack Obama’s campaign to change our country into a third-world nation?

Are you willing to sit back and watch Obama bulldoze our great nation?

Are you willing to let him construct a totalitarian regime... fascism, socialism, Obamaism... take your pick?

If you answered yes to any of those questions... join us.

At the very least, fire a shot across the bow... a shot that will be heard around the world... and send Barack Hussein Obama a clear and unmistakable message that he does not have carte blance to ruin the United States of America.

As the late former President Ronald Reagan once said, “If not us, then who; if not now, then when.”

You can join us by using the sign-up button below to read and then add your name to the Articles of Impeachment we’ve drawn-up against Barack Hussein Obama.

If, after reading the Articles of Impeachment against Barack Hussein Obama, you agree that action must be taken now, all you have to do to join our growing network of patriotic Americans is add your name (which will remain on our secure form and be kept in the strictest confidence until the time is right) to the Articles of Impeachment against Barack Hussein Obama.

That’s all there is to it. Be among the first to join this growing nationwide movement and help us spread the word far-and-wide. Together, we can take back our country before it is too late.

Can we actually impeach Barack Hussein Obama? Should we impeach Barack Hussein Obama?

To borrow a phrase from the “anointed-one,” ... “yes we can.”

But before going on, we really need to address the often misunderstood subject of what exactly constitutes an impeachable offense, in order to illustrate that Barack Obama’s actions are grave enough to warrant impeachment.

Former-President Gerald Ford, while serving in the House of Representatives, said an impeachable offense was, “whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history.”

Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution reads: “The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”

The key phrase here is “high crimes and misdemeanors,” a concept in English Common Law that was well-known to our Founding Fathers but is grossly misunderstood in this day and age.

“High crimes and misdemeanors” essentially means bad behavior.

Here’s a passage from C-Span.org which succinctly and beautifully summarizes the historical significance surrounding the inclusion of the term “high crimes and misdemeanors” in the Constitution:

“’High crimes and misdemeanors’ entered the text of the Constitution due to George Mason and James Madison. Mason had argued that the reasons given for impeachment - treason and bribery - were not enough. He worried that other “great and dangerous offenses” might not be covered... so Mason then proposed ‘high crimes and misdemeanors,’ a phrase well-known in English common law. In 18th century language, a ‘misdemeanor’ meant ‘mis-demeanor,’ or bad behavior.”

In other words, “high crimes and misdemeanors” does not refer to a criminal act (as some would lead you to believe) and our Founding Fathers fully intended to allow for the removal of the President for actions which were... well... simply put... egregious... grossly incompetence... grossly negligence... outright distasteful... or, in the case of Barack Hussein Obama, actions which clearly show “malevolence toward this country, which is unabated.”

And make no mistake, for those who mistakenly hold the illusion that impeaching Barack Hussein Obama would be a simple matter of “playing politics,” the Founders fully intended that the impeachment of a sitting President be a political act.

As C-Span.org notes:

“The Congress decides the definition [of impeachable offenses]: by majority vote in the House for impeachment, and by 2/3 vote in the Senate for conviction. The Framers of the Constitution deliberately put impeachment into the hands of the legislative branch rather than the judicial branch, thus transforming it from strictly a matter of legal definition to a matter of political judgment. Then Representative Gerald Ford put it into practical perspective in 1970, when he said an impeachable offense is ‘whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history.’”

The Obama Administration exemplifies maladministration. It qualifies as the poster-child for bad behavior.

Obama and those around him are ravaging this great country and adding a sorry chapter to a noble history.

Impeachment, as written in the Constitution, was tailor-made for Barack Hussein Obama and our Founders placed it in our Constitution for such a time as this.

It could be easily argued that we have a duty to impeach Barack Hussein Obama.

Of course, our elected officials won’t have the back-bone to go it alone. That’s where you come in.

Help us spread the word far-and-wide and our elected officials will come to know that Impeachment is the will of the American people and they ignore the will of the people at their own political peril.

The question is not whether we should impeach Barack Hussein Obama. Rather, the question is, can we impeach Barack Hussein Obama before it is too late?

But what is troubling is that during all this Obama’s ratings went back up. Help, I need a sociologist.
