Double Down: Sarah Palin again calls for Obama's impeachment

The damage has been done...elections really don’t matter anymore...and Obama knows it.

So true. If you were to go back after Big Ears won the presidency I stated that this was the end of any resemblance to our constitutional government.

What would make people hear her better? ________________________________________

Run for the presidency!

The minute she decides to run for office, she becomes indebted to the Party's movers and shakers (see: Rand Paul).

The only way to maintain her independence is to remain a free agent.

$H!T in one hand and wish in the other, let us know which one fills first.

At the moment even the faithful are seeing him as a major jackass. The quickest way to turn that around is go after him, so those who would generally be moved to abandon him, would instead circle the wagons.

When the gibsmedat crowd has to share their freebies with the brown invaders Barry had flown in, maybe then they'll turn on the white half of him.

I respect and admire Sarah Palin and Mark Levin. They both have called for BHO's impeachment. Levin said recently that Boehner's lawsuit against BHO will be tossed out by the court because it has no "standing", i.e., the courts have said in the past that the executive and legislative branches have to work it out on their own. Levin goes on to say that when the court tosses Boehner's case out, it will embolden BHO. Levin goes further and says that Boehner's timing is way off because it could backfire and return the momentum back to BHO and the Dems in time for the NOV mid-term elections.

Yet, why wouldn't an impeachment proceeding result in a similar backlash? Boehner has consistently shown he is incapable of leading. He would botch it. He even said yesterday that he is against impeachment proceedings.

If the GOP had statesmen in its leadership who could make the case against BHO in an impeachment proceeding, it would end there in the House. The media will not support or cover it, and the Democrat-controlled Senate will never convict him. The impeachment would be a historical footnote, just like POTUS #42 WJC's is. And "Slick Willie" is more popular than ever.

It seems with the GOPe leadership and the MSM both against conservatives, the prudent course would be to choose our battles more wisely. Attack BHO with the House purse strings to cut his pet projects and replace Boehner as House Speaker, and while we are at it, replace Rience Priebus as RNC chair.

The lawsuit has already emboldened the administration. He is now openly mocking the legislative branch of the government. I loved Palin’s speech. She sure can write.

so the economy is tanking, IRS scandal is blowing up, VA is a disgrace, obama’s numbers are tanking, republicans have a good shot at taking senate back, a lock on the house and hillary is imploding. Republicans are about to cross the finish line in a marathon, just 1 block away, what should they do ?

I know lets stop the race, go down a side street for a protest that will have zero effect on anything. Brilliant!

How would a crafty intelligent person start an Independent run at the White House? First, you have to establish yourself as the standard-bearer for the anti-Obama voter.

Second, you have to discredit the supposed opposition to Obama as ineffectual and enabling. Since such a person would understand that the Republicans have no intention of doing anything to stop Obama, challenging them to act would be a safe bet.

Third, you have to demonstrate how Obama has hurt the working man and woman With Palin’s recent salvo, she is accomplishing all three. She is setting the stage, placing the players in fixed positions in their respective corners and she will be free to roam the set aiming in both directions simultaneously. Look for lots more to come.

"How would a crafty intelligent person start an Independent run at the White House?"

I've been thinking the same thing. Palin knows the weak, pussy-assed GOP will do nothing and that Conservative are looking for an excuse to leave the Gutless Old Party. She also understands that BRAND is tarnished beyond recovery.

She's counting heads for a 3-man race and she intends to win a 35-40% plurality.

[Mariner]

She will run against illegals, for the Constitution and against all who enabled Obama.

[usconservative]

A Wall Street Journal/NBC News survey released this week revealed that majority of voters -- 52 percent -- believe Palin should just “be quiet.”

Right, because they're sick and tired of having their noses rubbed in the shitpile of a mistake they made by re-electing the pimp in chief.

I say "tough shit!" They oughtta not only be reminded at every turn that they foisted this mistake upon the country, they all oughtta be spayed/neutered and have their voting rights taken away. Clearly they shouldn't breed their stupidity and they've proven they cannot vote like adults.

Where would Saracuddah raise the $$$ necessary for a competitive run at the Dems and GOPe? She seems to me to be outside of the GOP apparatus. She resigned her governorship to make $ that apparently she needed to fight off Dem lawsuits in AK. I don't pretend to be clairvoyant, but I just don't see the big donors lining up behind her. Things on the ground will certainly be different in a year's time.
