U.S. Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz says he would favor the impeachment of Barack Obama over his decision to stop defending the federal Defense of Marriage Act.
It would be appropriate to do so, as “Defending the Constitution” is in the Oath of Office.
Thanks Brown Deer. Won’t this be offensive to Eric Holder’s people?
This will not get any traction.....if you really want to see fubo impeached, then the way to do it is “Project Gunwalker”.....this one puts the murder and cover up of a federal agent squarely in the white house..
So, there are at least two counts on the indictment
Bump
There is an article on drudge about this .
Can't censure.
The only remedy Congress can take, per the Constitution, for an 'out of control' POTUS is impeachment.
(we've been down this 'censure' road with Billy-Jeff)
No, they will not get him for the murder...but, the cover up, now that is another story...this one will make watergate look like the warm up band
Nuff said.
You’re right, but may FReepers won’t understand why. They are so consumed with family issues that they can’t think tactically.
There’s no case, it’s all weak tea. 0bama’s got an opinion, let’s impeach him. Heh.
High crimes and misdemeanors are missing, and for the “first black President” they’d need to be stratospheric.
Let’s face it, folks. 0bama is on us like a herpes. He’s not going away except on his terms.
It gets worse. 0bama is a symptom of a larger problem. We have been killing our unborn, miseducating and dumbing down our youth, subsidizing indolence and greed in adults, and soon will be processing our sick and elderly; and all the while embracing our enemies. We are racing headlong toward destruction; we gave 0bama the reins, but it isn’t really 0bama who is directing our passage, and removing him to give the reins to Joe Biden would not save us.
A pointless, ridiculous exercise.
Allen West would blow him out of the water in a debate. We need a non-politically correct candidate who is not afraid to get in Obama’s face. A real straight talker.
Obama and his AG did this on purpose to get his base fired up...
IMPEACHment is indeed called for but do they have the votes to remove him from office?
Yes, indeed, Eric Holder is a whole nother story. Did no one think to ask him what he meant by “my people?” Like, “Aren’t you the Attorney General of the US? Am I not one of your people?”
Holder needs to be run out of town. Not walked, run.
Do we have to wait until the DOJ actually fails to prosecute a DOMA case or can an impeachment claim be filed now?
Republicans have not got the testicular fortitude to do it.
Ridiculous. There is no strength of will in the House to draft the orders. Even if there were, there are not the votes in the Senate to impeach.
Agreed that a social impeachment is a trap.
Obama is guilty of treason but the Republicans are too chicken to impeach him on it.
My thoughts as well.
Draw up the articles and present them for a vote.
