“I believe O’s plan is to bring this nation to civil war.”

Bingo! We have a winner. Guns are the line in the sand in this country. Millions of people didn’t buy weapons in the past 4 years to turn around and register and/or turn them back in. Not gonna happen. If The Kenyan comes after the guns he is toast.

Nobody has seriously tried yet, so we don’t know if that line has been crossed.

My Guess it won’t be the One who comes for guns, just his minions. He won’t get his hands dirty, it will be some smuck that will be tasked with coming for the guns.

The House would impeach 0dumb0...but the Senate would never convict him, just like they never convicted Bubba Clinton after his lying & obstruction of justice. And now the bastard Clinton is considered a "statesman" of his socialist party.

The only small consolation in a House impeachment of 0dumb0 is that this would mightly hurt & offend his extremely vain & narcissistic persona.

That’s nice, but who is going to ACTUALLY impeach him?!

Even if it couldn't be brought to proper fruition, putting out articles of impeachment might have an educational effect and help to curb the treachery that is brewing.

Big Deal. Even if the House passes articles of impeachment and there is a trial, how many democrat senators will vote to convict and remove him. Even if EVERY GOP senator voted to convict and remove (doubtful at best) you would still need enough demos to get to 67 votes. So which 20 democrat senators do you think would even consider voting to remove?

Nobody will do anything to stop him.

Obama and Democrats to Republicans: "LOL!"

Exactly. The GOP is completely gutless and won’t do a thing to thwart His Excellency...

Congress is waaay too wimpy to impeach, and the Senate would not convict anyway.

Note to my congressman and senator: PLEASE, make a liar out of me!

At some point in this process he will have amassed so much power that Congress and the Courts can no longer contain him.

Besides that, how many battalions do congress and the courts command? Can they call in blue helmeted assistance?

How many of our professional military will obey unlawful orders, or even recognize that the orders are not lawful?

When it starts, our response should first be against those GIVING THE ORDERS. Shoot the schmuck in self defense if you have no alternative, but hunt down and terminate his supervisor and the guy who gave the supervisor his orders.
