Why We Shouldn't Impeach Barack Obama
American Thinker ^ | 9/20/14 | Elise Cooper

Posted on 09/20/2014 6:41:54 AM PDT by bestintxas

In his latest book, The People vs. Barack Obama, Ben Shapiro charges the president with counts of espionage, involuntary manslaughter, violation of internal revenue laws, bribery, and obstruction of justice, not to mention the recent charge of child endangerment.

Benghazi, ObamaCare, Fast & Furious, the IRS scandal, the NSA, Solyndra, appointed czars, the James Rosen affair, and the illegal children’s exodus into the U.S. are just some the issues that show how Obama has become an imperial president. The president has decided when to enforce immigration laws, advantageously delayed ObamaCare, and micromanaged the economy, as well as attack the Supreme Court, Congress, and the sovereign states. He does this while proclaiming he is the voice of the people, yet he encroaches upon their rights. American Thinker interviewed Shapiro about his book and its premises.

In The People vs. Barack Obama, Ben Shapiro brings Obama into the people’s court and addresses each of his abuses of power.

American Thinker: Why not go the impeachment route?

Ben Shapiro: It’s important to start seeing the Obama administration as a criminal enterprise.

Impeachment is for High Crimes and Misdemeanors. It should suffice, but neither party is capable of handling the process honestly.

Yes, I agree. Some of the blame goes to the stiff-necks who stayed home and didn’t vote, because Romney did not hold his mouth just right when he prayed to Jesus.

Ben Shapiro is extremely WRONG!
For the law's sake along, the LAWLESS and ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF should have already been IMPEACHED.
Even if the Senate won't enforce JUSTICE, it MUST be done.

Obama will go down in history as our Fraud/Liar President

A history that few will be aware of after he gets done rewriting the history books.

I agree.

If obola was impeached or assassinated he would be made some kind of heroic martyr.

If someone offs him I hope it’s a muslim. Maybe then the angry black warrior types will go after a real enemy instead of finding imaginary racism to kill burn and pillage over.

The impeachment of Obama would be a definite political
loser. Much of his low info support has evaporated. Many
of them are willing to go in another direction or at
least stay home come election day. Why would anybody
here want that crowd to be stirred up by the media?

It's just as sad a commentary on Americans voters as it is his on him and the Democrats who selected him as THEIR leader.

The blame ought to be spread about appropriately, doncha think?

I think so.

Jesus Christ: You can’t impeach Him and He ain’t going to resign.

“If someone had assassinated Hitler in 1936, he would be remembered today as a great man who saved Germany.”

Are you then arguing that it is better to allow millions to be executed in gas chambers and millions die on the battlefield than to have prevented Hitler’s ambition?

I cannot possibly see how “letting it play out” to witness atrocity and suffering is better than eliminating the same.

“If we get the Senate and keep the House King Obama must be impeached. If successful,”

It makes zero diff whether we get the Senate to have Obama impeached.

This can be done right now as the GOP controls the House.

Only reason we would not be successful, regardless of whether we take the Senate or not, would be Republicans voting to not impeach him.

Pray tell what I did not read that you saw instead.

God is letting it play out.

Physical death is not the worst thing that can happen to a person.

If you haven’t heard this, it is good.


This is very short and worth 47 seconds of your time.

It is also a sad commentary on the electorate the people aren’t demanding his impeachment. The people have the government they wanted.

Sadder still is the PITIFUL number of people who COULD register but couldn't be bothered...especially the 18-22 years olds. They wanted the vote SO BAD...and now they don't use it.
I suppose that was predictable.

True enough.

Yeah, nothing can be added to those last four words.

Jesus Christ: You can’t impeach Him and He ain’t going to resign.

Well, what else do you expect from a community organizer? He voted ‘present’ on almost every piece of legislation in the IL state senate. He learned well from Bill Ayers.

He wants no opposition and is doing his best to turn this country into a third world nation. The peanut farmer is very happy. 0 is now the worst president ever.
