The house cannot impeach Obama w/o evidence of high crimes & misdemeanors. Incompetence is not a crime.
In the Senate, two thirds (67) votes are required to convict.
The same process applies to Biden, & each impeachment & trial could take months.
If the Pubs retake the House and/or the Senate, I want to see them focused on the economy, not impeaching Obama. A severely weakened Obama & his Rats can be far more useful in this effort, rather than wasting time on an obviously partisan impeachment effort. An Impeachment attempt will enrage, energize, & unify the Left, just after they suffer a beat-down. And it might convince much of America that the Pubs are just as partisan & arrogant as the Rats.
Which would require two election cycles to gain enough senators. That would make impeachment viable only between January 3, 2013 and January 20, 2013. The only advantage to impeaching President Obama at that point would be to prevent him from ever holding any federal office again. If we had that kind of senate majority, I'd rather have Congress impeach all the "czars", Attorney General Holder, and several other underlings in the Obama administration. If a rider were attached to the bills of impeachment, those office holders could be permanently barred from any future federal office.
“high crimes & misdemeanors?”
1. Ignoring our Constitution he took an oath to defend and uphold
2. Breaking our economy
3. Illegally appointing a shadow cabinet of cronies and goons
Need I go on, because I can?
