After one, first-hand look at the immigration crisis at the U.S. border with Mexico, U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Texas, commented, “President Obama is begging to be impeached.”
It turns out, he’s not the only the congressman thinking the same thing.
As WND reported, Stockman theorized, “He wants us to impeach him now, before the midterm election because his senior advisers believe that is the only chance the Democratic Party has to avoid a major electoral defeat. Evidently Obama believes impeachment could motivate the Democratic Party base to come out and vote.”
Similar comments were made by former U.S. Rep. Ernest Istook, R-Okla., in an editorial in the Washington Times Friday, in which the now Heritage Foundation fellow argued, “Obama wants to be impeached.”
“President Obama insists on flirting with impeachment even as House Republican leaders insist there’s no such possibility,” Istook wrote. “Already operating beyond the constitutional bounds of presidential power, Mr. Obama’s strategy is to push the bounds further rather than pulling back. He dares political foes to make his day.”

He should be impeached AFTER the election and AFTER the dummies seize control of the Senate. Maybe THEN they will grow a set and DO IT!!!!!!

Wait til after November. Take back the Senate Then invoke the 25th Ammendment and make a case the guy is unable to fulfill his duties and remove him. It wouldn’t be hard to make that case at this point. You could make the case for mentally incompetent to hold the office.
Wait until we have a clear Senate majority in January. Let Obama give amnesty to millions just weeks before the election. That will energize OUR base, plus the independents who don’t like amnesty. Meanwhile, the libs will stay home, believing they have won.
That’s like saying “if the looter in my house wants out, he can leave thru the front door.”
If impeachment is the right thing to do then that is it. If the Klown can use it then we need to know that, too.
Post ‘o the Day, FRiend!
Brer Rabbit and the Briar Patch.
Who says Dems don’t read Uncle Remus because it’s racist?
Perhaps after regaining the senate, but as Istook points out, Obama wants this because it will increase his victimhood.
The last thing I want is for this guy to become a martyr.
Obama would prefer playing politics than having people focus on him being a huge failure as president.
He’s a big-time loser as a president and everyone is seeing it. They’re seeing that progressivism doesn’t work and community organizers aren’t real leaders.
He wants to further divide this nation to take the focus off his failure. The politics of impeachment are about his only hope before the mid-term elections.
Stockman is correct. And none of the Repubs in Congress are falling for this trick.
After November, when there is a GOP majority in both houses; then we will look and see if impeachment is a viable option.
Exactly!
I said this almost 2 months ago.

“Truthfully, it’s as if Obama were hoping to initiate an impeachment proceedings against him so that he could unify the base and bring them to the polls in November. He is truly the most divisive president ever.”
Jeez you make too much sense.
As Elvis used to say: “Thankyou, thankyouverymuch!”
It is even easier to destroy Obama politically in one fell swoop!!! Just vote to destroy the entire Democrat “ Hate America, Traitor” Party come November, 2014........just a mere three months away!!!
We, the people....should commence a massive blog/internet campaign to call for the defeat of every Democrat running for office, local, state & federal!!!! Winning the Senate and holding the House wipes out the Democrat Party and derails. low life, anti-American POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama for the rest of his term!!!
If someone wants to impeach Obama......let it be only the Democrats. They won’t, so they will go down for and with Faile POTUS Obama, politically in November of 2014!!!
You really need to read your Constitution. The petition that the President is incapable of performing his duties must come from “the Vice President and a majority of the principal officers of the executive departments.” That is the VP and a majority of the president’s cabinet must petition Congress to remove the President from office because of his being unfit. Further, if the President transmits within four days a petition that contends that he is fit, Congress must decide the matter. A 2/3 vote of both houses is required to find the president unfit. Even if it got past Biden and the Cabinet, it’s not likely that O could be removed via this method.
unless democrat vote fraud machine is unleashed across this country the Repubs are clearly poised to take the Senate and keep the house this November. Obozo likely believes when that happens he is pretty much effed. But then again, there is always Bruno from Chicago to keep the republican leadership in capitulation mode.
Canb shorten that for you:
"Anybody who would vote Democrat...is seriously stupid.
