Find out who cleansed Zero’s entire life and who put the current plot in play. They all need to be investigated, prosecuted, and go to prison together.
I was kind of shocked to hear Darell Issa actually use the “I” word. Impeachment is pretty unlikely but democrats might want him to step aside for the next election.
Personally I think there is a lot of quiet discontent among elected democrats who have been hung out to dry for Obama. At some point, its going to come back and bite him.
And, that the Republicans sitting in office new or returned, are overwhelmingly NOT RINOS, but have b*lls of brass, and listen to the people.
Only THEN will we have the "Impeachment Congress of 2011", something I have agitated here as a November 2010 strategy, but was laughed off of one of the FR forums by some people proclaiming to be much more politically savvy.
I tell you, this is the year, and it can be done. But that hurdle must accordingly be cleared first, otherwise all of this will be only hot air.
The thing about this issue is that it’s simply a case of bribery pure and simple so most folks don’t have any trouble understanding it. Obama and company can try to thread the needle by claiming that what they offered wasn’t exactly a “job” but that ain’t going to fly from a PR stand point.
NOT FAST ENOUGH FOR ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We can be happy this man is on the side of doing the right thing!
Unfortunately for the man calling himself “Barack Obama”, when he is no longer useful to his creators, they will not be using the impeachment machinery to make a change.
I have an old yellowed Newspaper at my desk at work I use to taunt Liberal co-workers with, Date: December 20, 1998. Big Headline: CLINTON IMPEACHED.
I would love to add to that, one more Paper dated this year. The media is only going to be able to protect him for so long.
Obama as the first black POTUS would never be impeached. Even if the GOP controlled both houses and actually have the votes to move froward for impeachment in the house, the Senate would never vote to convict. The country would be politically damaged beyond repair for decades
There seems to be a serious lack of real evidence for impeachment. The bar for "high crimes" and "misdemeanors" are set pretty high to remove a POTUS.
Not going to happen unless some real chit hits the fan and it is obvious to all, even the soft left would support it.
PS. I would love to see this poser fraud lead away in handcuffs but it isn't going to happen
I think that to impeach Obama would be a hugh & series mistake.
At least over this Sestack affair. I’m quite prepared to believe that in his remaining time Obama may do something that would demand impeachment. However, he’s probably have to exert some strenuous effort for that to happen, so we may be safe.
I think impeachment would be a distraction (for both sides), it would absolutely rally his base, it might win him back sympathy from some moderates (esp. if it was over BS like this Sestak thing, I think we all know stuff like this probably DOES happen ALL the time), and those lap dogs in the MSM, who at least are doing a little ankle biting now, would jump right back onto the pillow.
No, this is not what we need to be doing. We need to be focused on getting rid of as many Dims as possible this November. Then we need to focus on finding a person who can be a good candidate and a good president to hand the big O his walking papers in January 2013.
We also need to pay attention to our own state and local pols, at least if you live in a dem infested state like I do, in NJ. This party needs to be broken and destroyed and since it is the oldest and largest political party in the US that is a daunting task. But, let us give credit where credit it due, Obama is helping a lot with that right now, why would we want to stop him?
And besides, we’d be stuck with Biden.
“Back in February, Sestak confirmed to Larry Kane, a Philadelphia talk-show host, that the White House dangled a “high ranking” job in front of him to convince him to drop his primary challenge against incumbent Arlen Specter.”
Anyone have the audio of this?
Without the House & Senate it is impossible.
Even with them, it likely won’t happen in the absence of something huge, illegal, and irrefutable.
Don’t forge, Walpingate is still simmering in the background as well: http://www.nationalreview.com/the-feed/264/walpingate-heating. If the dems at least lose the House this November, the investigations can begin.
750,000 signatures on a petition mean nothing to a bunch of communists who rammed government take over of health care down the people’s throat. The only thing that will get this “thing” out of office is a Divine intervention. How He intervenes is up to Him.

Suppose Bill Clinton told a white lie for Barack Obama with the intention of helping him out with this Sestak problem. Bill Clinton will not take the fall for Barack. Meaning Bill will spill the beans when it’s politically expedient. Now who would be left to pick up the pieces? If Barack trusted Bill, it was very stupid of him.
We should remember that constitutionally, impeachment is a political process, not a judicial process. It is congress that sets the standard for the definition and proof of “high crimes and misdemeanors”. Congress has long since forsaken Blackstone and English common law in that regard.
Impeachment and removal will not happen until and unless an overwhelming majority of sitting Senators and Representatives believe that their personal political interests are served by that course of action.
Impeachment is a political act, not a legal one.
Impeachment is just one step below a coup. In fact in a way it is a legal coup.
This current administration is governing against the will of the American people. While it is true he won the election, we do not elect dictators, we elect a President to be the chief administrator of the Federal Government.
I am thinking that President Obama may at some point wish his party did not have such complete control over both houses of congress. It would have tempered some of the more extreme movement towards the left. As it is, the Democrats are moving further and faster than the American people want to go. President Obama is going to pay the price for this (he is not blameless, but I think Pelosi and Reid are the main driving force in all this).
It is now clear that Obama does not know what he is doing. It is also clear he has surrounded himself with political ideologues, not competent administrators.
Blaming the Bush Administration is no longer a winning hand
Blaming racism is no longer a winning hand.
What does he have left?
We live in a dangerous world. We now live in a dangerous world where our friends don’t trust us, and our enemies don’t fear us.
It is no longer if we suffer another major terrorist attack, it is only a question when.
That by itself may tip the nation fully against this administration (except for the hard core 30-35% who think Obama is a conservative), but if it is shown the terrorist enter from our southern borders it will be all over for Obama, and perhaps even the Democrat party.
The only defense against impeachment is the support of the American people. This administration has shown what it thinks of the American people. In time they will return the favor.
I killed him, your honor. But that was in the past. Can we move on already?
