IMPEACHMENT GOES MAINSTREAM

Republicans would impeach Obama in a "New York Minute"...if they had the votes. They don't, so it would just be a waste of time and effort. Congress does enough of a "cluster***k" without that nonsense.

“It’s time to impeach; and on behalf of American workers and legal immigrants of all backgrounds, we should vehemently oppose any politician on the left or right who would hesitate in voting for articles of impeachment.”

OK, we've found one patriot.

The topic is now mainstream, but the conclusions are the same: without possibility of conviction, Obama will use Victimology and the 35% of Americans INCLUDING THE MEDIA who will foment and fight for him to do even more damage.

I think our only hope for true impeachment with conviction is stealth. Outsmarting big libs. Here is how I would do it. Pitch the big lib pols and talkers wih softballs. Ask them about the constitution and how they feel about it. Do they feel it’s the best document to keep a free people free now in 2014? Then ask them if they believed the oath they took (if elected to office) to uphold it. Did they take it seriously, do they think of it when making decisions? No follow ups, just get them on tape.

Next, once a lot of Dems are on record for supporting the constitution, grab dems on TV and ask them point blank if X (executive order amnesty, etc) is constitutional. Ask a lot of them and let them finish the conversation. No follow ups. They’ll trip over their own feet to make excuses for Obama.

After those guys/gals are all taped, then start interviewing dems and pubs, even the GOPe, using the above interview clips, asking, “if you believed in your oath to uphold the constitution, and the President isn’t upholding it, what is your responsibility?” Or, what would the correct responsibility of congress be right now?”

Gots to go slow.

Not necessary, he has been neutralized, he has impeached himself and is on a short leash. By the time 2016 rolls around, voters will be so sick of him and liberalism that a Republican is a shoe-in.

I just posted this on another thread with respect to 'defunding' Obama's administration instead of 'impeaching' him directly. Defunding his administration has, in my opinion, a greater advantage to our probability of further gains in 2016. Being the target of impeachment gives him more of a soapbox to rev up his base than defunding would (a growing number of democrats approve of defunding). But, watch out, if we exercise that tactic with success, I would not put it past Obama's backroom handlers to gin up an attempt on his life leaving a false trail that points fingers toward "tea partiers", or "right wing radicals", or "ultra conservatives", etc. If I were Obama at this time, I would be very nervous about which team mate was at my six. I'd be pushing hard for an impeachment myself as it's far more conducive to a long and healthy life.

I predicted months ago about June, 2015 would be about right to impeach Obama. Obama keep being the wrecking ball and do what he claims he’s gonna do.

At least begin preparing Articles of Impeachment.

That will take at least a year, but will list item-by-item the crimes he has committed.

And the first thing to do is to subpoena that so-called "birth certificate."

If amnesty is signed all US workers should stop work for two weeks. That should get Barrys attention.

Impeach, convict, remove from office, try, convict, imprison.

That’s what Obama deserves...and his henchman Holder too.

I'm no convinced that the Senate would fail to convict.

Bill Clinton was a VERY popular President and had universal support in his party.

The same is not true for Obama.

There's a decent chance, if properly presented, Impeachment would result in Conviction.

80% of the American People are opposed to "Executive Amnesty". That's a very powerful force.

It's not the "trivial" sex thing.

Trey Gowdy was asked yesterday if he would consider impeaching the President. His reply:

“Have you met Joe Biden?”

“...House Speaker John Boehner immediately fired back, stating that he disagreed with Palin on impeachment. ..”

Well, gee.... he WOULD, now, wouldn’t he..

This is what happens when we have a Butt Boy instead of a REAL House Speaker.

Trey Gowdy for Speaker of the House NOW...!!!

Amen! Oppose any politician that won’t support impeachment. I am sick of blogging about it. They should start the hearings now and let the chips fall where they may.

The US Constitution has only one remedy for removing an out-of-control president—impeachment.

If he really is out of control, then Congress simply needs to do its duty, as spelled out in the Constitution.

If he forces illegal alien amnesty on the nation through an executive order, he is OUT OF CONTROL.

What we need are two things:

1. Conservative researchers/writers actually write up an impeachment charge document, using the Bullet approach, and including a few specific examples of “high crimes and misdemeanors” with each charge.

2. Have an organization create a “National Committee to Impeach Barack Obama” (based on the Marxists’ 1970 creation of similar name).

3. Then hold “hearings” with “witnesses” who will list, describe and document each charge.

It would make for great TV showing and as a documentary. Hey Dinesh. Can you take this on? You have some time on your hands now and know how to make great documentaries.

From MadMax who was atthe old Heritage Foundation “Third Generation” talks where you often appeared to the delight of all present. Kelly Fitzgerald was cute, and still is.

As we learned with Clinton, impeachment means nothing. It’s a slap on the hand and the miscreant goes on with life as usual. Removal from office must be on the table. And prison.
