This needs a satire warning.
I think Obama will go totally Insane and be Committed First
Nope. I’m 100% in favor of impeaching the serial usurper first opportunity we get. The House should file articles of impeachment in December with the Senate trial starting in January. Let them prepare and present the evidence.
I hope so. Time to man up!
I want supper to be served. >see tagline
But if he’s aqcuitted because they can’t get a 2/3 vote doesn’t that make things worse?
What I would do is issue censures on each his unlawful actions saying they violate the laws passed by Congress, and would include a warning to all government officials that his actions are unlawful and there could be consequences for any government official who follows Obama’s orders, and a warning to third parties that such orders are unlawful and do not create any legal rights or benefits.
The constitution must be defended or it becomes meaningless.
No.
But I'd certainly love to see him in the record books for Presidential censures (Jackson is the only president actually censured by the Senate) and bills he finds the need to veto (the number to beat is FDR's 635 vetoes).
Obama has proven the Constitution can be changed “at will”. So just do it.
Freely admit that I did not.
The headline did not seem to warrant a reading, to be honest.
I do think anyone here seriously believes that he will be impeached.
Ferguson just demonstrated a small example of what will happen if he is removed.
“The constitution must be defended or it becomes meaningless.”
I am wondering where Article VI of the Constitution comes into play.
It states in pertinent part:
“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution.”
Obama took such an oath, which he has violated numerous times. Millions of other Americans, whether as government officials, members of the armed forces, public safety and law enforcement, and otherwise, have similarly taken the oath. For example, I took an oath to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic when I was admitted to my state bar as an attorney.
It seems to me that Obama can be removed from office because he violated the oath. Similarly, we have an obligation to take some sort of action against him because we have taken the oath.
But how that plays out in the real world, I don’t know.
“...Senate, which requires 67 votes. If the GOP has 54 seats in the Senate as of January, where are the other 13 Dem votes required for conviction going to come from?”
The other 13 won’t happen, so he won’t be thrown out, but I think the impeachment needs to go forward to document Obama’s willful disregard/shredding of the constitution and laws of this land.
In spite of all the golfing and vacations, Obama hates the job already, right?
Take away all the trappings and perks of the Presidency through defunding them and he will writhe in agony. Don't give him money to go to Camp David even for a little R&R. Ground Air Force 1. No Hawaii at Christmas. White House 24/7 baby -- until he just can't stand it!
Make him hate the job so much he leaves office of his own accord -- humiliated, diminished, mocked for failure and as a quitter.
Again, you don't have to impeach him: investigate, impeach, and destroy his underlings -- include Joe Biden, and as they plead for clemency, bleed them for information that exposes what we have all known all along about Obama.
Next subpoena his academic records once he's out - no Executive privilege to fall back on then, and expose who bankrolled his rise to power.
Let the IRS/Benghazi/Ebola investigations proceed in the House AND in the Senate. Whether Obola is in office or out, he's still liable and he'll just be the gift that keeps on giving into 2016.
Crawl back his pension. Defund his Secret Service detail.
Just quietly pay him back with the same passive aggression he's practiced since day 1.
See how long he lasts.
If you really want to solve the problem the real solution is far easier than impeachment.
FReegards!
I’m all for impeachment. Let’s not worry about conviction until we get there. Step 1 is to get the House to act, to impeach.
Just the existence of such a confidential "open channel" may well be enough to give Obama pause.
One word answer..........NOPE!
Not a chance.
It might only take a few DINOs to get the ball rolling.
The elephant in the halls of Congress is that Obama is impeachment-proof because he is black.
Haven’t you watched the violent riots in the streets simply because blacks believe that a white cop shot a black man with no cause? They don’t care about the right or wrong of it. There are plenty of agitators out there who will fan the flames of racial conflict, screaming that Obama is being impeached because he a black man and whites don’t like him as President simply because he is black.
Try to impeach Obama and the cities of this country will burn because the black underclass has nothing to lose. Impeachment would make the Watts riots or the Ferguson riots look like a walk in the park.
