Okay, they impeach him. Then it goes over to the senate where .... nothing will happen because it is controlled by the rats.

The Tree of Liberty, must (occasionally) be watered, by the blood of Patriots"

You left out Tyrants. I can guarantee you that Tree won't be watered by the blood of Patriots only. . .

Yep, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee tried to show them the way through the power of the purse but the GOP-E stabbed them in the back.

If he really says that in the SOFTU speech, the Pubs should get up and walk out en masse, at a minimum the couple of Pubs with balls should walk out.

Realtor’s motto: “Here’s the desk, there’s the phone, lots of luck, you’re on your own.”

(Said to the newbie realtor by the rest of the office.)

That’s what I’m talking about.

Demonrats in the Senate would not be expected to convict Traitorobama because they are just as traitorous as he is. But they should have to fail to convict him daily as each impeachment charge is sent to the Senate.

Good point!

I suppose I should have said “ALMOST all of his predecessors”....

Maybe someone needs to go see a play at Ford Theater?

What else is new?

[hawkaw]

I do not know if I buy the argument. I see lots of political harm by even trying it. I remember what happened with the Clinton impeachment and how that all ended. My advice, wait until you have control of the senate in 2015 and then try it.

"President Barack Obama will work with Congress where he can and circumvent lawmakers where he must."

Where he MUST?? Fortunately, we live in a constitutional republic. As head of the Justice Department, Obama can choose to ignore some laws. He cannot, however, impose new ones. Even liberal justices will not convict someone for a law that was not passed by congress. Obama may think he can control the bureaucracy, but he doesn't control the people. His boasting is ignorant bluster. All he can do with his pen and phone is bluster some more. He's just a timid juvenile. With all of the powers he has at his command, he can't even get a web site to work.

If he’s not in office, he can’t be impeached!

Obama will still be in office after the elections of 2014. I assumed everyone would understand that.
