Top GOP Senator Says Obama Could Be Impeached Over ‘Most Egregious Cover-Up in American History’
The Blaze ^ | May 10, 2013 | Madeleine Morgenstern

Posted on 05/10/2013 7:26:49 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The top-ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee said President Barack Obama could possibly be impeached over what happened in Benghazi.

Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) said in a radio interview Thursday that “of all the great cover-ups in history” — including the Pentagon papers, Iran-Contra and Watergate — Benghazi “is going to go down as most serious, most egregious cover-up in American history.”

“We may be starting to use the I-word before too long,” Inhofe said on the Las Vegas-based “Rusty Humphries Show.”

“The I-word meaning impeachment?” Humphries asked.

“Yeah,” Inhofe confirmed.

When Humphries questioned the likelihood of impeachment, Inhofe said it wouldn’t be immediate.....

Inhofe is a fool if he thinks the media will allow such a thing to happen as well as both the Obamalamadingdong and Clinton smear teams.

YES!

We might need to build a few dozen federal prisons to accommodate the complicit scumbags.

sounds like a setup for a bloody, pointless CF followed immediately by more anti-2A treason.

You also can't let stuff like this cow you into fearing to ever exercise your 2nd Amendment right for the purpose which it was intended.

We are being pushed dangerously close to a point where that might be our only recourse.

Impeachment might be in the cards depending on which way the winds are blowing for the Administration 6 months or a year from now. More people will be hurting, and pissed off, AND
the Boston Marathon bombing “suspect” will be seen getting
kid-glove handling, considering that he’s probably gotta get in line behind Major Hasan and KSM.....the Obama Gang is getting jostled badly by the first repercussions of all their policy decisions, their great achievement Obamacare, and their
thoroughly subversive worldview as regards Islam.

As long as they impeach and convict him, justice would be sweet. If they impeach him and not convict, like they did Clinton, it would not make much of a difference. I want him thrown in jail and made someone’s wife.

Let them play this out. If Republicans overreact they will blow our chance to address this issue.

People really will believe this is a political stunt.

Ted Cruz isn’t a RINO and Rand Paul isn’t a RINO.

The rest of the GOP senators put on conservative stage performances then vote RINO, then vote conservative, then vote RINO again depending on the issue and what special interests bought them.

Ones who are up for re-election in 2014 like Inhofe are now voting conservative all the time.

Inhofe is a conservative. He has a lifetime ACU rating of 97.

Rand Paul is an amnesty supporter.

I don’t like amnesty but the ACU-CPAC conservatives are the beltway GOP-E, not outside the beltway folks like me.

Rand Paul is an outsider, its just that his outsider status may be too far left for us, Ted Cruz’s outsider status is a better kind.

My number one agenda item is a balanced budget now not ten years from now like Pat Toomey and Paul Ryan are pushing.

Inhofe could propose the immediate balanced budget and maybe then I would change my mind.

All the emotional arguments about different issues won’t stop the debt bubble from bursting.

WE NEED DEBT ACTION NOW AND THESE BUSINESS AS USUAL POLITICIANS AREN’T TAKING IT.

There is no way we can achieve a balanced budget now. Two thirds of the budget includes the entitlement programs, other so-called mandatories, and debt servicing costs. Revenue just covers these costs. When you borrow 43 cents out of every dollar, it makes it very difficult to make the necessary changes immediately to balance the budget.

The federal government controls 25% of our GDP and about 40% when you include state and local government. I want a balanced budget, but it will have to be done incrementally.

At least Ryan and Toomey are now talking about 10 years to do it. Before that, they were saying it would be 40 to 50 years from now.

And just having a balanced budget is not the answer. You can balance the budget by increasing taxes and other revenue producing measures. We need to balance the budget by reducing spending and reforming out entitlement programs that will bankrupt us if they are not changed.

Surely you can't be serious. There is no way to over react to criminal treason and assasiation and then covering it up with more crimes, and lies. And "people" think it's political? The media lapdogs, and even some of them are turning. The more the public (the ones who are not doped up/braindead/illiterates) will see the truth once more of it is presented to them.

And what about this???

Benghazi whistle-blower a Democrat, voted for Hillary and Obama twice

Benghazi whistle-blower a Democrat, voted for Hillary and Obama twice

A key Benghazi whistle-blower who has allegedly been punished for speaking out against the administration is a registered Democrat who voted for both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

The lawyer of Gregory Hicks, the former U.S. deputy chief of mission in Libya who testified before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Wednesday, confirmed the information to The Daily Caller on Saturday.

According to the lawyer, Victoria Toensing, Hicks voted for Clinton during the 2008 primary, and for then-Illinois Sen. Obama in the 2008 general election. He again voted for Obama in 2012.

And the dems in the Senate would “Gosnell” their first-born before they’d ever vote to remove Obama from office

I think the evidence will be so bad against BO that even the dem senators will look like fools for not removing him from office for dereliction or duty or treason or many other crimes he has committed. At some point, you need to quit covering for Bo and Hillary and watch out for yourself.
