Obama wants the ultimate seal of martyrdom ....impeachment.....I think instead he will get a court challenge fast tracked to the Supremes....but I understand Congress can’t get it into court... someone else will have to challenge him

And THIS may not take long. The have said that the people will have to call for his impeachment. If he does this, and I think he will, the people will call for his impeachment.

I believe he WANTS to be a martyr and will force it.

As long suspected here on these pages, there is an insane person in the white hut.

It is time to end it all with this pig. It will take until spring.

They claimed that they would use the power of the purse to thwart Obama. Let’s roll, congressmen. Show us that you got the message loud and clear.

...promised executive action on immigration reform, dismissing calls from critics inside and outside his party to allow Congress to debate the issue next year.

This, my good FRiends, would be an excellent time to get all Dems (especially Hillary Rodham (Clinton)) on record as to a direct opinion on the legality, appropriateness, alleged need, and potential consequences of executive immigration reform [sic].

They will try to avoid the topic, as this is great stuff for the 2016 elections, and they know it.

I heard Krauthammer say that, that the Supremes wouldn’t hear the case by Congress. Who would be able to bring the case?

We have some good legal minds that should be able to tell us, starting wit hated Cruz! Ann Coulter or Laura Ingrham . .

I would be more specific

Defund all related activities

Initiate impeachment proceedings

I would not depend on the court

Doesn’t look very good. I prefer iceberg lettuce topped with ranch dressing.

I have a reasonable question. How far can he push this before a patriot in an Army uniform turns into an American Qaddafi?

Seriously, this is explosive stuff. Coups have been launched for lesser reasons. The Roman Republic fell because of these Cesar tactics. This is down right scary. What is even more frightening is according to the ‘inside reporting’ nobody forcefully warned him about such a possibility. A stern. "Mr. President. If you declare any form of executive amnesty, you will be impeached and we will arm twist people in your own party to the point of lethal threat to have you removed and then prosecuted'

I keep thinking someone will eventually snap. But if it hasn't happened by now, I am not sure what it will take.

Just bend over and take it conservatives because no one is stopping him.

They should challenge him in court. I don’t believe the Executive Order is intended to be used in this manner. We do not have a king. We have a chump. And chumps need to work by consensus. Congress should be ready to challenge this president seconds after he tries this, right straight to the SCOTUS. If nothing else on day one, get an injunction.

good thought and the best strategy. They should also take the opportunity to educate the American public that our government is not run by the President but that the congress and the court are co-equals. Isolate the imperial president and show the people how grownups handle a petulant child.

Some are speculating that odinga wants to be impeached so that he can play the victim and garner the support of 'victim' classes. He could drag out the proceedings and simultaneously subvert the system. Think of the mass hysteria on the left. He might consider impeachment a vehicle to Marxist revolution.

BTW I am not trying to criticize impeachment. I am trying to look at it as a marxist might.

The choice for this country: choose to have your remaining freedoms stripped away via amnesty, or fight a civil war. From what I have seen, conservatives blow a lot of hot air about the latter while letting the former happen.

Never. But I think I would like my baked salmon better and this time will use a little brushed on olive oil before sprinkling the herbs. Then some superdelicious scalloped potatoes sliced with my 2mm disk for the food processor. Will use some can’t think of the special cheese, grated, gruyere, had to hunt for the name of it. Then a Cobb Pasta Salad I just found and want to try.
