Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. James 1:22 NIV
Now the latest talking point by the DNC is that only Republicans impeach presidents. They conveniently forget their attempt of impeaching Bush over the supposed outing of a paper pusher in the basement of the CIA. Of course the Marxist establishment attempted to make her into a female version of 007 when in reality she was nothing more than a glorified secretary and this minor indiscretion was made into the crime of the century. Right up there with Bush lied about the WMD which they had endless hearings on only to find no deception by his administration whatsoever. Does anyone really think these were not supposed to lead to his impeachment?
So we have an outraged Marxist media and their Party making it sound as if the President has done nothing wrong when a few years earlier they sent a man to jail in an attempt to impeach Bush. They were outraged that a Democrat activist working in a gummit agency was revealed, but have no issue at all that a gummit agency was targeting American citizens. Apparently, if the CIA was targeting citizens whose only crime was dissent, that is fine as is the destruction of incriminating evidence as long as it is against Tea Partiers or as the President calls them, Tea Baggers. Our watchdog media would have been right at home in Nazi Germany.
We got a brief glimpse inside the mind of IRS head Lois Lerner when a non destroyed email had her calling Tea Partiers a__ho_s and terrorists with one of her fellow IRS heads. Wonder what other names and incrimination is on those conveniently lost records? This is the same lady, and I use the term loosely; who met with the President 150 times during the first four years of his administration. America is supposed to believe this community organizer who knows that money is the lifeblood of his reelection was not making sure she stalled their tax exemption? This is the same guy who had his political opponents divorce records unsealed to win his Senate race, so this was a no brainer to stop the momentum of the Tea Party.
So the same group who sent Scooter Libby to jail for three years and destroyed him financially are incensed that anyone would even consider impeaching this crook. If Nixon was impeached for threatening to use the IRS on his political enemies and supposedly destroyed 30 seconds of recording tape, we are now supposed to ignore the actual use of the IRS on your political enemies and the destruction of hundreds of hours of email conversations.
The conventional wisdom, the Three Pillars (academia, media and the DNC) say that impeachment will help their messiah. They believe the people will rally around the presidency and be repulsed by his impeachment trial. That may be true if you have the Clinton machine behind them and they can laugh it off as only about sex, but this is about attacking American citizens with the strength and power of the gummit. A large number of Americans still understand the concept of fair and the only thing less popular than congress and gridlock is the IRS. When it is shown there was a coordinated effort to make his opponents lives miserable with an all powerful entity his favorability levels are going to flat line.
Are the Three Pillars really saying that if and when Republicans capture the White House it is fair game to go after Marxist groups with gummit agencies? After all if they are going to make the case that all of this corruption is fine when they are in charge it has to be fine when they are not.
Will it be ok to close down these temples of indoctrination? Can we go after the Unions and assorted groups with spy agencies and shut them down? Can we spy on the media without any concern for their privacy rights? These questions have to be brought into the light and allow the voting public to cast their votes on whether America decency no longer exists or do we now have a country that can bully its citizens? Say what you want about GW Bush he respected the American people and they respected him. Those days are over since we have a president who dislikes America and despises his political enemies. We are at a real crossroads in this country and especially in his Party do these means really justify the ends?
We have enough questions about law breaking to begin impeachment proceedings which is nothing more than an investigation of those infractions. It is nothing more than a check against an executive branch that is using the power and strength against its own people which we have seen. The only question now is who was directing this illegal use of the IRS and cover up. We have to know whether or not he is so vindictive he would order his cabinet to break the law and use their offices to harass and harm American taxpayers. If he did then he needs to pay a price as do all of his leaders who did the actual acts.
The precedent has been set with Scooter Libby who the Dems used to get Bush impeached and was sent to jail for 30 months before he was pardoned. It was also set time and time again with the Dem committees to find evidence of lying over and over from the Truther investigations to WMD and any other thing they could invent to destroy Bushs administration which they finally with the help of the Three Pillars accomplished after years of vicious attacks and false charges. The Republican Party does not have a willing media that will investigate any of these actual crimes due to loyalty to their Marxist agenda. This in addition to a corrupt Attorney General there is no check for a corrupt Executive Branch and that is an investigation and impeachment. The founders brilliantly put this in the Constitution to prohibit the President from deciding he is a king and could dictate from the Executive Branch where all the power is concentrated.
We are now in a Constitutional crisis as the Marxists have taken control of this country through the front door. They are on the verge of turning our democracy into a dictatorship to make slaves out of the masses through the use of gummit agencies like the IRS, NSA, EPA, FBI and whatever agency they require to control the people. The people have one check and balance and that is the congress where this can be stopped, although it will take courage and dedication to the freedom our founding fathers envisioned. It will take faith in the American people to want freedom more than Obamaphones. It wont be about Party, elections or career enhancement it will be about starting to bring down the Three Pillars and relighting Lady Libertys torch. It is time to go back to 1776 and throw out a corrupt king.
Pray America wakes up
I am totally ready as well as many of my friends and relatives.
In their time our Founding Fathers were also ready. Are you ready and willing to give the ultimate sacrifice?
Hah!
They don’t call him Zer0 fer nuthin’ :)
You get it exactly. This could rally the entire country just like the Tea Party did and put pressure on the regime. He does not handle pressure very well and is not articulate like Clinton was.
Well, Lois Lerner was right about one thing - we are trying to destroy (her) America.
I wish our guys had as clear a view of what’s at stake as she does.
No, you are suggesting we do nothing and do what the GOPe says we should do. That is what got us Romney who I said had no chance of winning a year before he lost.Giving Obama a pass will accomplish the same thing and deflate our voters.
“Look the left are bully’s.. and he is their leader... bully’s will just keep abusing you, pushing the envelope more and more, until you fight back you can’t say ..Oh I will never strike back.. even if the bully may win you still gotta fight back, throw a solid punch, at some point”
Without something close to 66 votes in the Senate, you’re not ‘throwing solid punches’, you’re throwing airballs. Obama is laughing at you.
I do not understand why some insist on even discussing impeachment since it only plays into the democrats hands by inflaming their base and increasing their fund raising. Are conservatives so blind they cannot see that impeachment is only a red cape in the hands of a bullfighter and that they are the bull?
Perhaps the bull fighter will make a mistake and overplay his hand. Maybe his amnesty plans will be that mistake inflaming the country so badly that things will change in the senate. But we cannot win by blindly charging the red cape time after time. Let the bull fighter first make an error large enough to swing the balance and they we can charge.
What I am doing is refusing to join the Legion of Those Determined to Lose at all Costs. Its a very exclusive club who will only accept as members those who agree with them on every single point and does not want any votes from those who are not members. They are sort of like those societies who will not accept new members and abstain from sex. They are doomed to oblivion.
You mean check your principles at the door and vote the way the smart people like you tell us to vote. How many elections have you won?
I have won 6 in a Blue State by rallying Republicans. They call me and my partner the Koch brothers since they can’t beat us. We use strategies like this that you would scream against since you are one of those who know everything and really know nothing.
I have posted it here:

Dowdy would be a force, but I like him where he is.
Concur.
You certainly are on the right path and the things that you are going at the grassroots are right on the mark. No wonder that you are having success at the local level. Of course, hard work is key. With a District that’s D+7 on the PVI, you have your work cut out for you turning out your Congresscritter. Oregon 1 is not currently rated as competitive. Do you believe that you can change that? It can be done, but it’s not easy we turned out our 1st term Democrat Congress lady after she made a really stupid gaff supporting Pelosi and we pounced. The District will be R for years.
Drop the impeachment drumbeat - that’s a loser.
Goodbye and good luck.
I’m late but thanks for the ping Bray.
My opinion is that impeachment would only hurt us in the next elections.
After that, and if he has granted amnesty by executive order, then it’s time to fully consider it.
I have not read through the posts so don’t know what others said.
