The order went out shortly after Obama was inaugurated president, in a memorandum signed by new White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel.

Obama just declared war on the Republican Party. I hope the RINOs are paying attention... Impeach The One starts now.

This is all part of the usual transition of power fun and games, and is to be expected, no matter what the rhetoric being thrown around.
