President Nixon never pulled 5% of the shenanigans of this individual.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Sounds like the loons over at the saloon are starting to worry about their boy.

Impeach hell, pep walk his ass out the front door of the WH. He works for us and is not above the law.

[Viennacon]

I think I speak for all sane men and women when I say Odungo and the Moochie wonder are deserving of a FAR WORSE fate than impeachment.

[kingattax]

probably the only way that the lefty propaganda trash from “salon” gets any attention at all is when it gets posted here on FR.

what a treat.

Unmentioned in all this pious philosophizing is whether the Presidency sufficiently corrupted can be an existential threat to the country. Many of us, myself included, believe that it has become so through its abuse of federal agencies and its partnership with media who act as co-conspirators rather than checks on this power.

There was none of this high-minded concern for the dignities of office when Bush was President - the author grudgingly admits as much. When, if ever, the author defends a Republican President in the same terms, we can talk. This piece is not, as it pretends to be, an objective consideration of the merits of impeachment, it is only another tiresome tribal drum song.

[2ndDivisionVet]

So are you saying I should quit posting threads from sites like that?

[tumblindice]

Salon fags! Next The Nation’s Latrina Van den Hooters will tell us John McCain thinks removing, or even impeaching the Lizard King is a bad idea.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Actually, that is true.

When the left and establishment repubs are warning of the impending dangers of impeachment, then you can be sure that it’s time to impeach.

[RC one]

There is strong evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors-perjury, obstruction of justice, abuse of power, failure to uphold US laws, misappropriation of tax payer dollars, utter disregard for the constitution, inciting lawlessness, etc. This is not about politics or delegitimizing the presidency, Obama has already done that to himself. This is about delegitimizing the rule of law and, thus, the constitution of the US and the republic itself. If allowed to persist, it sets a precedent for future Presidents.

[The Cajun]

Looks like Sarah done scared the "boys" over at Salon.
Didn't take very long either :)

[KGeorge]

I sure hope he’s wrong about that!

[GeronL]

Let martyr the RINO’s instead

[SpaceBar]
