“”horrific event.”

My idea of a “horrific event” is seeing leftists hanging from trees and lamp posts from sea to shining sea.

Well, other than arming myself, which I cannot see happening anytime soon, how about money?

“Is there a soul about who doesn’t know bankrupting the United States is the plan of Obama and Reid and Pelosi?”
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Some seem to think it is a matter of incompetence alone, which I find amazing, it seems to me that anyone incompetent enough to believe that what Obama is doing is good for America would have to be sitting in the corner blowing spit bubbles.

Believe it or not some are stupid enough to believe that we are having a real recovery and things will be back to normal soon.

Gregg was one of the first GOP senators to push back on obama.

He seems to have reformed.

At least on this topic.

Who knows?

"No congressman/woman has power to impeach Obama, unless he violates a particular law severely and clearly worthy of impeachment, or behaves so irreprehensibly as Clinton or others in WH."

Actually, it's just like a lawsuit, any member can introduce a resolution of impeachment at any time, just as anyone can lodge a lawsuit against you at any time. Then the members can argue about whether it meets the criteria. Once they do that and impeachment is approved, it's time for the trial in the Senate. And there it's supposed to be a matter of the burden-of-proof, which for impeachment is very low, amounting to "do we trust this guy anymore" (unlike civil law, in which the goal-line is a preponderance of evidence, and criminal law, in which the goal-line is guilt-beyond-a-reasonable-doubt).

Any member could lodge a resolution of impeachment today. It's worth pondering why they don't.

Senator Gregg seems to have been mugged by reality.

Considering he was tapped by Obama for a cabinet position, his words have substantial weight. And his words are some of the strongest I’ve ever heard uttered by any serious politician (dem hyperbole notwithstanding)... and he’s shouting them from the rooftops.

He’s become something of a hero, as far as I’m concerned.

Seven years after Sept 11, we elected a mysterious person of the name Hussein to the presidency.
Three years after Hurricane Katrina, we elected Looter Guy to the presidency.
He’s not the problem, the people who voted for him are the problem.

Why, no weapons?

Money, I would convert some to gold modestly, conserve food, perhaps even get a case or 2 of MRE's (Army Navy stores)

Then have conversations with friends & family on the reality of what is going on. read, study the constitution. Become active in local politics.

Do not accept the status quo, and do not become disillusioned with being called fringe, I think that the founding fathers were called extremists (and they were) but for the call of freedom, there is no second chance, you have it or you don't, (and we don't)

LOL, there is not a legal reason for impeachment yet, but hopefully soon. AND there is not support for it in Congress, and hopefully the “voting public” will start a new majority in NOV 2010.

NO, we pray for all of the illegal and corrupt deals to come to light, and hopefully something will be large enough for Congress to act.

Excellent question. I wonder what his voting record’s like.

If worried, invest in things people need, like energy, food, real estate. Also, some gold.

As for impeachment, baloney. That’s boob bait. Congress has the power of the purse. If Obama won’t veto out of control spending (and he won’t) then the only other body that can stop it is the body that wrote the damn spending bill in the first place. Might take a government shutdown or two (oh, the horror!), but it will accomplish more than another pointless (and inevitably failed) impeachment.

Amen to that. I think we're going to get a lot of 'fringe' and 'conspiracy' talk from the MSM in the coming months, so everyone hang tough. Fight on!

Actually impeachment is not like a lawsuit, and here is the procedure explained quite well:
