Will Obama be impeached now that Republicans control both houses of Congress?

Only if the Democrats tell the Republicans to impeach him to clear the table for 2016.

After the Obamacare debacle gets worse, it probably will happen.

With leaders like Boehner and McConnell it ain’t gonna happen.

Excellent point. And I can name more than a few big media types who could use Julius Streicher therapy.

[Art.] Just days before the CNN poll was conducted, the Huffington Post released its own impeachment poll — a more reliable measurement that showed an overwhelming majority of Americans DO NOT OPPOSE IMPEACHMENT.

Huh, whaddayaknow about that? Even they got this one right. Guess we owe the Huffies one for stripping the CNN liars naked.

What is it with CNN? Something about their once having been owned by the Mouth of the South? Something in the brackish and typhoid-ridden water over at (the former) AOL/TIME-Warner?

Nobody gets it. Those guys are 100% Yacht Club/Chamber guys, and nobody remembers what David Horowitz yelled himself hoarse warning us about, that "it all comes together at the top".

The Chamber et al. have their own reasons for wanting the country flooded with cheap, ignorant Third World hammer-swingers, and they don't care if they're all seventh-generation Zapatistas and Communists. They don't care if America the idea disappears. They don't want to live in a country full of prosperous people big enough and self-respecting enough to say "no" when Vanderbilts and Morgans snap their fingers. They'd rather take their chances in a heavily stratified and metastable society perpetually proletarized and reproletarized and on the whole prerevolutionary, because their FA's tell them -- as the Carthaginians' money-counters once did the rich merchants who stiffed Hannibal when the stakes were, as Rush likes to say, "ball game" -- that a few more good quarters are worth everything, and then they can abscond to Costa Rica with their loot and let America burn and go to hell.

And if Obama overthrows the Republic and institutes 250 years of one-party government (remember the 'Rats floating those polls last summer?), well, that's what the Ubers have the Democrat Party for, right?

I think there is a good chance that President Obama will be impeached, perhaps even convicted. I do not write this through any faith in the “system”, but rather because of Obama’s nature.

He will push the limits. Every lack of push back will lead to more and more clear infractions. He will welcome impeachment as a sign that he is finally optimizing the amount of damage (change) that he can accomplish.

The question is whether there are enough Senate Democrats who see how destructive Obama is. I really doubt it. The Democrats' philosophy is based on fantasy, corruption, or, most common, a combination of both. Really corrupt Democrats might see President Obama as a significant danger; the Mafia tends to be very patriotic in time of war; it threatens their existence.

But I see President Obama moving from extra-constitutional challenge to extra-constitutional challenge.

Fortunately, he has never had to do anything really tough in his life. He is not Hitler or Stalin.

I will pray that he fails.
