OOPS... make that WAIT till 2013!
That would make Pelosi president, are you nuts?
We can’t imprison Joe!
Having a Dem President to blame for the calamities that will certainly befall us over the next few years is a strategic advantage that should not be relinquished without strong cause.
The downside is that removing a President, VP, etc. simply because we hold a supermajority in both houses (which is what it takes to convict) would give us a Parliamentary System for a period of time. It might prove popular. One amendment would be needed to reduce the Executive Branch to a ceremonial Presidency.
Put down the mouse and slowly back away...
I don’t see what Biden has done as an impeachable offense.
If we manage to get Obama out (and majority or not, I highly doubt they will impeach him. They don’t have the cajones), Biden will become President.
Impeach him and you make him the victim. Let him sit there and take all the scorn he deserves.
Impeachment is NOT going to happen. Unless the Democrats start it.
Recall that, while it takes a majority of the House to impeach, it takes 2/3 of the Senate to convict.
Even if the GOP regains a Senate majority in 2010, there is no way it gains a 2/3 majority.
And, as the Democrats conclusively proved in 1999, they won't vote to convict a Democrat President -- even if they know he's guilty (and they certainly did, Robert Byrd admitted it).
Forget this impeachment crap. It's a wet dream.
You are a scheisskopf.
If the elections are a disaster for the democrats, it’s a safe bed that the democrats will get rid of Nancy as Speaker. She will take the fall!
USALiberty! I want what you’re smoking. If it were only that simple.
Just want a GOP held congress and senate after 2010—we can block the BOZerO from most major screw ups. Then we dump him in 2012.
I’ll settle for neutering the sob.
Impeachment will never happen. Even if it did, we would have a real and bloody civil war/race riot on our hands. The cities would explode in anger.
Some of us country folks have an old saying, “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.”
That said, it’s a pipedream that: (1) The Republicans will capture a supermajority this November. Republicans haven’t had a supermajority in over a century, and the gerrymandering of disctricts gaurantees that they will never capture one again without massive election reform and a return to Constitutional principles; (2) That the Republicans would have either the brains or the guts to attempt impeachment even IF they had a supermajority.
You also assume that “WE” will get back control of Congress. I think it’s likely Republicans will regain control of the House (barely), much less likely they will control the Senate. I figure they will go from the current 41 seats to 48, maybe 49 at best. With the divide that close, I look for the Media to demand — and for the Democrats to “suggest” that the Republicans be “nice,” share power, etc...and I expect the Republicans to do just that — in a spirit of “bipartisanship.” Remember, there will still be plenty of McCainiac-types in the Republican ranks.
Attempting to impeach Obama, at least as matters currently stand, probably wouldn’t be the smartest strategy anyway. It would likely actually build sympathy for him — as it did with Clinton.
Ya gotta think these things thru folks!
FRiend, a party that’s too cowardly to make a big issue out of this certainly doesn’t have the wit:
Another Pardon, Another Controversy
http://speakout.com/activism/news/5653-1.html
Hugh Rodham [Hillary’s brother] received a contingency fee in connection with a pardon ... a scheme to distribute 800 pounds of crack cocaine
Imagine if Bush had pardoned a crack dealer for cash. How quiet would the DNC and the Drive-bys have been about it? The RNC is so issues-focused, they are obsessed about giving the DNC cover. It’s apparently been that way ever since Joe MacArthy. Conservative leaders have always held their punches. They rationalize away their fear.
Now for the nitty-gritty.

“New Coach” Comparison:
Such a question to remain festering is inexcusable in a leader. A team sees some guy walking into the locker room claiming to be their new coach. How much should they trust him? Is it their fault if they wonder?
The coach says, “I was sent here by the other team.” [Annenberg vetting Obama]. Such ‘leadership’.

[Obama was vetted by Annenberg. Does that ring a bell? Annenberg funded Obama AND unrepentent terrorist, Bill Ayers. Obama and the terrorist had offices near each other thanks to the fox who guarded the vetting henhouse.]

WHY DOESN’T HE JUST SHOW US HIS FRIGGING BIRTH CERTIFICATE? What kind of goofball would rather spend 1.5 million? Or does he WANT discord in the military? Is this LEADERSHIP?
There are too many snarky “dignity freaks” who are more worried about their image than the truth. They fear ridicule. They calculate. And they will never get along with hardworking conservative muckrakers.
Not knowing it, the sarcastic “Dignity Mossad” is like a coward in the foxhole who stabs his buddy in the back and surrenders. Either that, or he’s a hideous combination of mental laziness and self righteous judgmentality.
Maelstorm: “There is no need for Glenn Beck, Breitbart, or anyone to defend a President who refuses to release his education records, his medical records, and yes he still hasn’t released a long form birth certificate.”
CaptainK: “All jobs require detailed information about your past. Why should the most important job in the nation get a pass?”
President Biden? LOL!
He was selected as insurance against BHO being impeached.
It is not possible to impeach and impostor since he isn't a president he is a fraud.
So?...All a Republican majority needs to do is to legally request he records.
Oh yes, that impeachment thing worked out so well for us even when we had an actual crime to work with.
What do you plan to specify as the “crime” beyond philosophical disagreements?
Great job of typing, considering you are probably wearing a straitjacket.
