Sarah Palin on Tuesday joined a growing chorus of Republicans calling for the impeachment of President Obama, writing in a Breitbart op-ed that the influx of young illegal immigrants over the southern border "is the last straw that makes the battered wife say, 'no mas.' "
Mixed/careless metaphors aside, this is nothing but bad news for Republicans — especially four months until the 2014 election.
Palin is hardly the first GOP politician to raise the issue of impeachment over the past couple years. Others include Sens. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.), Reps. Blake Farenthold (R-Tex.), Kerry Bentivolio (R-Mich.), Michael Burgess (R-Tex.), Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.), former congressmen Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.) and Allen West (R-Fla.), and the South Dakota Republican Party. Not all of these folks called for Obama's impeachment directly, but all of them suggested that it is or should be on the table.
What none of these folks have, though, is a national following. That's where Palin comes in. She's the first Republican of any significant national stature to make this call. And she's the kind of figure who could potentially recruit others to the cause — people who will want to be heard. Palin surely doesn't carry the kind of weight she once did in the GOP, but she still has a significant tea party following and is highly popular among the conservative base....

I wish that people like Palin would give patriots the following information about full impeachment. Patriots and former Obama supporters need to make sure that 2/3 of the Senate is actually willing to follow through with a House of Representatives impeachment by kicking Obama out of office after 2014 elections.
In fact, elections are so close that I’m concerned why people like Palin aren’t mentioning requirements for a removal-from-office impeachment.
The only thing that twitched faster than Urkel’s ears was Valerie Jarrett’s rectal sphincter when she saw tha story on Drudge.
Do not let anyone try to blow smoke up your arse, this is scaring the hell out of the White House.
I don’t care about the freaking GOP. I care about America. When the GOP leaves America behind, I leave the GOP behind.
Do you believe he deserves to be impeached?
Do his actions warrant impeachment?
Is Uno pizza still free in the break room?
Pictured above is the reality of American being restored starting in January 2017. President Sarah Palin and her team of Christian and Jewish Patriots will rebuild our nation upon its Biblical foundation. She'll dismantle the EPA, OSHA, USDA, HEW, HHS and a myriad of other anti-business agencies run by pointy-headed, pencil-necked bureaucrats. Freedom and liberty will again ring throughout the land.
a president that does not step down will be removed by the joint chiefs
additionally, if the joint chiefs see the president as a credible threat to national security, they will remove him and put him under arrest as they inform congress. it gets more interesting if the country is in a declared state of war
btw, your belief that the house should do nothing about the destruction of our country due to HReid blocking conviction of impeachment in the senate is bogus. the House show do its job and let the senate defend their position.
it would also stop any further bs
if we had done this after Benghazi, we wouldn’t be dealing with this invasion now
Posted before, worth posting again, I think...
His words and actions, like Hitler’s, told everybody what his intentions were. But like those in Hitler’s day, nobody believed it.
He PROMISED to “Yes-We-Can” fundamentally change America. His VOTING RECORD as a senator told everybody he was to the LEFT of the Socialist Party, so it was easy to see that his fundamental “change” was going to be an attempt to take America from a Constitutional Republic to a Marxist state.
Government take-over of as many things as possible was the goal of the first half of this “presidency” with his crowning achievement being government take-over of healthcare. Nobody blinked. He was reelected.
Somewhere along the line in his “lame duck” second half, he decided he had nothing to lose by doing whatever he could to unconstitutionally consolidate power to himself and destabilize the United States in as many ways as possible.
Reasons to impeach are too long to mention (the list of grievances could read like the Declaration of Independence) but for me, the last straw was letting the five Taliban crazies go back where they could effectively wage murderous Islam jihad on America.
Impeach Obama, repeal Obamacare, cut government by 80%+, constantly assert alternative of the wealth-creating free market economy, and let freedom once again rain in America.
No they’re not. This is going to be a blow-out for the GOP, despite all their misbehavior, stupidity and all that. They lucked out into being the opposite party of the failed president.
Accepted.
This one was much easier than I expected.
Ah yes! Our beloved Corps. I’m sure there are plenty of Marines willing to remove the little prick from the White house.
Brer Obammie is pleading with us...
“Please don’t throw me in that impeachment patch.”
"Damn the torpedoes, full speed head!"
"You may fire when you are ready, Gridley."
"I wish to have no Connection with any Ship that does not Sail fast for I intend to go in harm's way."
If we take the Senate - there would be a secondary and highly beneficial effect to getting rid of the Worm.
Slow Joe would become president.
I know that being a good thing sounds really odd. But hear me out. The only way Slow Joe can mount a realistic run in 2016 is by having some status over Hillary. Being acting president would give him that. There would be so much infighting and money spent that the R candidate (I’d like Cruz, except he is super effective where he is right now. Maybe Perry, or Nikki Haley - not heard anything bad about her yet?) should take the presidency at a walk.
Forget it. The public is incapable of holding a complex thought in its mind.
The dems and the media will define the impeachment as racist, because of 0bamacare, because of immigration, or something other than what it really is: unconstitutional actions.
The public will eat up the simplistic explanation of the impeachment process, and dismiss it as partisan.
No one gave a danm when they were impeaching Clinton!
The upper photo is of Marines, the lower is of Army soldiers.
If the republican governors would step up and stop bowing to D.C. (all of them) might not even need the Marines .... republican governors (at my last count) outnumber the dem governors. Please, someone, correct me if am wrong about the republican governors outnumbering the dem governors.
