Mr. Obama is imposing a leftist revolution. Since coming to office, he has behaved without any constitutional restraints. The power of the federal government has exploded. He has de facto nationalized key sectors of American life - the big banks, financial institutions, the automakers, large tracts of energy-rich land from Montana to New Mexico. His cap-and-trade proposal, along with a newly empowered Environmental Protection Agency, seeks to impose massive new taxes and regulations upon industry. It is a form of green socialism: Much of the economy would fall under a command-and-control bureaucratic corporatist state. Mr. Obama even wants the government to take over student loans.

The Slaughter Solution is a poisoned chalice. By drinking from it, the Democrats would not only commit political suicide. They would guarantee that any bill signed by Mr. Obama is illegitimate, illegal and blatantly unconstitutional. It would be worse than a strategic blunder; it would be a crime - a moral crime against the American people and a direct abrogation of the Constitution and our very democracy.
It would open Mr. Obama, as well as key congressional leaders such as Mrs. Pelosi, to impeachment. The Slaughter Solution would replace the rule of law with arbitrary one-party rule. It violates the entire basis of our constitutional government - meeting the threshold of "high crimes and misdemeanors." If it's enacted, Republicans should campaign for the November elections not only on repealing Obamacare, but on removing Mr. Obama and his gang of leftist thugs from office.
It is time Americans drew a line in the sand. Mr. Obama crosses it at his peril.

Hey, the People have power. If they can “deem”, we can “deem”.

IMO, the non-removal of Bubba is what emboldened the left. The fact that there were no indictments with a GOP Congress and proceeding president speaks volumes. It is why we are where we are today.
That is true: 1/3, 1/3, 1/3. We could very well be seeing a similar distribution shortly.
Pray for a Military coup.
I love Jeff Kuhner. He fills in on talk radio from time to time. This editorial rocks!
Be careful what you pray for.
The military is divided along racial lines and depending on the branch.
count me in.......I am salivating for it. No Dem or Republican will ever take my liberty. Here in Michigan, people I talk to are ready to rock and roll when this crap hits the fan.
You CANNOT trust any form of the government at this time... I wont even trust the Sheriff dept if this passes.....it is going to get ugly
I did. "I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, PRESERVE, PROTECT, AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES . . .
US Constitution, Article 1, Section 7: But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by Yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively.
You have the correct option. If The Republican Party wins either chamber, particularly the House of Representatives the first action should be a vote to expel those Congress persons who attempted to subvert the legal constitutional procedures of that chamber. Expel Pelosi,Hoyer,Slaughter, and that fat slob tax cheat who chairs the Ways & Means committee Rangel. Alcee Hastings also must go. Refuse to recognize the "Black Caucus, the "Hispanic Caucus" and any so called "progressive" commie congress group. This is far easier to do than impeaching the President.
I don’t even like popcorn, but it would be worth it to watch that!
Let’s just hope that it doesn’t come to that...
“Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice, moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” It’s time.
Glenn Beck said it best: The ONLY institutions in the USA that deserve our respect are THE MILITARY and law enforcement!
Beck is pointing us to the way forward. Congress will never impeach the Kenyan Usurper. But the OATH KEEPERS can and should act!
ROTFLMPO!
I agree 100%
> “...but it would be worth it to watch that!” <
In my college freshman spring of 1973 I would walk through the Student Center between classes and began to notice the TV room filling up day by day. I poked my head into the room a few days later and ask a fellow student: “What’s everyone watching?” “Watergate” the student answered. “What’s a Watergate?” I asked.
...I missed alot of Physics classes that spring.
