Because people like you confuse what roles the Congress play in the Constitution.

I have seen too many people on FR say that Obama cannot be impeached because the GOP does not have the votes in the Senate.

If you go back and look at my original reply to the Freeper who inferred that due to Reid being in Senate that impeachment cannot happen. My original post is what you replied to that distorted what the Consitution clearly says.

Most people do not know enough Civics to understand that the House is solely responsible for impeachment, period.

The process of Impeachment raises awareness on the whole series of foul play that Obama has been engaged in, reveals such outside the MSM to the American public, especially the LI voters, and, besides is the only real remedy to an out-of-control President that the House has at its disposal.

The inference that one does not do this if you cannot remove him as well, which is what many Freepers suggest, is not the point.

It is the solicitation of a change in public opinion when crimes against the Constitution are exposed that is the point.

Bill Clinton was neutered when he was impeached by the House, in spite of him remaining in office.

We need to neuter Obama.

I believe we are on the same page, but believe different things. You seem to suggest there is a role by the Senate for impeachment, whereas that is clearly not in the Constitution, and reamins the sole responsibility of the House.

“Because people like you confuse what roles the Congress play in the Constitution.”

No, I don’t, and I quoted you the exact quotation from the Constitution that supports what I have been saying.
