Let’s assume this is true. A couple of things to consider:

1. We should let the rats take him down. If we do it, it’s going to be impeachment redux. The public won’t like it and we will have alienated the black community for another 30 years. But if rats are responsible for taking him down, the black community may be willing to start thinking about voting R for the first time since the 60’s.

2. We don’t want this to happen soon. That gives the rats time to force a resignation after, say, HRC is appointed VP. Then we are running against a non-damaged incumbent. Ideally, this will wait until after Obama is nominated and too close to the election for the rats to fix the problem.

3. We don’t want this to happen soon part 2. We want a severely weakened president for the next two years, not a fresh replacement. The longer it strings out, the less damage the president can do. This works better for us as the death of a thousand cuts rather than a big drama like impeachment.

4. This is not just about Obama. Our goal should be to tie as many prominent rats into the scandal as we can. Discrediting 100 progressives beats devastating a single president by far.

Assuming this stuff is true (and I have questions about the “source” in the article), our hotheads could well mess up the opportunity of a lifetime by not acting strategically.

Yes, assuming it’s true, that is an excellent plan. I was thinking point #1 already. Stand back and let the Dems shoot at each other.

YES! EXACTLY!

for the life of me, I never understood why the Republicans refuse to tie the rats together. Although this election cycle they seem to be doing so.

“The longer it strings out, the less damage the president can do. “ How can his cursed executive orders and bloody czar appointments be prevented? The guy is like a bloody loose cannon, firing off new crackpot implementations on a daily basis. (Am looking for some reassurance here.)

I truly think Scenario #3 makes it very problematic for us in the world of international affairs. Particularly with Iran, North Korea, China, Russia, Venezuela and the like, they will have a frikkin ABSOLUTE FIELD DAY if they think for one moment nobody is minding the store. I would prefer a military coup d'etat with the Pentagon in power and in control for two years until elections in 2012, than a nutcase suited for a straight jacket, still sitting there in the West Wing, unimpeached nor unremoved due to the Constitutional Provisions, with such vicious and vile international enemies arrayed abroad against our Beloved Republic, and our men and women in the hundreds of thousands stationed abroad.

All good things to consider, though I like #’s 3 & 4 best.

Death of a thousand cuts: Priceless!
