Another reason why I think impeachment is very unlikely is that the denizens of Capitol Hill are all afraid that their own complicities, backroom dealings and accomodations could be exposed. When the SHTF everyone gets sullied so they would much prefer to find a more quiet way to deal with him.
As in the everyday working world, “removal” often takes the form of pushing someone out into the organizational equivalent of Siberia. A quarantine, if you will. So much easier than a messy firing that makes managers look bad.
Again, I would loved to be proven wrong about this and do concede that if a clearly psychologically unstable Obama steps too far over the line then the congress will have no choice.
There is much wisdom in what you say. But I keep hoping and praying and posting that this bastard needs to pay for the mess he created here. He shouldn’t be allowed to slither away into the rocks with his retirement and benefits pay by the taxpayer dollar after contributing so much to the wrecking of our national economy, our national healthcare system, our constitutional checks and balances, our borders and our position overseas.
I don’t view this as a partisan issue. I had posted here before he took over that his predecessor should have been impeached for IGNORING our border defenses and refusing to enforce our immigration laws.
Obama is but the last in a series of increasingly stupid or maligine incumbents who have undermind our Republic.
Hopefully Cantor’s defeat presages an awakening on the part of the American voters. Incumbent serial office holders who are wedded to the establishment must go.
