We need a new Congress who will impeach Obama and try him for treason.
Just 23% now believe the federal government has the consent of the governed.
**********************
The modern litmus test of legitimacy.
With reference to an older one, it would appear this regime has lost the mandate of Heaven.
The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” — Author Unknown
The GOP will never, ever, for any reason whatsoever impeach the first black president of the Untied [sic] States of America.
Never. They are institutionally incapable of it.
Epic Fail.
It will never happen. They won’t rock the boat for fear of a race war. JMO.
Holdin’ steady.
I read that somewhere from a foreign paper just the other day. Its so true, Czech Republic maybe
I’ve seen leftist comments on that quote,
they try to de-legitimize it by saying it isn’t from the source that some claim it is, some Czech newspaper.
However, they never address the truth of the content.
Its “legitimacy” lies in its truth.
The article states only the obvious...the obvious of which has long been noted and spoken around these forums...hence why some of us talk about ‘buyers remorse’ in reference to those who voted for this lamearse, idiot-ridden Jack Squat Barry and are now expereincing varying levels of remorse for having voted for the lamearse idiotPOTUS.
maybe they can impeach half of him?
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."
Their power is neither just nor, evidently, ratified by the consent of the people they govern.
Doesn't seem to worry them, does it?
This is nothing more than pure and simple cowardice.
It’s going to happen whether or not Zero is impeached.
Watch his numbers rise. He’s taking credit for the capping in the gulf right now. Notice Thad was the spokesman all this time now here comes Bambi. I hate this guy.
The GOP will never, ever, for any reason whatsoever impeach the first black president of the Untied [sic] States of America.
If they did not impeach Bubba Clinton with the evidence served up on a little blue dress, they are never gonna have the stones to impeach anybody
It very well may backfire on him.
Anyone paying attention will know that he had nothing to do with it, no matter how much he tries to take credit.

You are exactly right. They can deny the truth all they want. They can’t stand the truth.
And it came to pass in the Age of
Insanity that the people of the land
called America , having lost their
morals, their initiative, and their
will to defend their liberties, chose as
their Supreme Leader that
person known as “The One.”
He emerged from the vapors with a message
that had no meaning; but He
hypnotized the people telling them, “I am
sent to save you.” My lack
of experience, my questionable ethics, my
monstrous ego, and my
association with evil doers are of no
consequence. I shall save you
with hope and Change. Go, therefore, and
proclaim throughout the
land that he who proceeded me is evil,
that he has defiled the nation,
and that all he has built must be
destroyed. And the people rejoiced,
for even though they knew not what “The
One” would do, he had promised
that it was good; and they believed. And
“The One” said “ We live in
the greatest country in the world. Help
me change everything about it!”
And the people said, “Hallelujah! Change
is good!”
Then He said, “We are going to tax the
rich fat-cats.” And the
people said “Sock it to them!” “And
redistribute their wealth.” And
the people said, “Show us the money!” And
the he said, “ redistribution of wealth is good for
everybody..”
And Joe the plumber asked, “ Are you
kidding me? You’re going to
steal my money and give it to the
deadbeats??” And “The One”
ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe’s
personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, “Isn’t that
Marxist policy?” And she was
banished from the kingdom.
Then a citizen asked, “With no foreign
relations experience and
having zero military experience or
knowledge, how will you deal with
radical terrorists?” And “The One” said,
“Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how
nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill
us all!” And the people
said, “Hallelujah!! We are safe at last,
and we can beat our weapons
into free cars for the people!”
Then “The One” said “I shall give 95% of
you lower taxes.” And one,
lone voice said, “But 40% of us don’t pay
ANY taxes.” So “The One”
said, “Then I shall give you some of the
taxes the fat-cats pay!”
And the people said, “Hallelujah! Show us
the money!”
Then “The One” said, “I shall tax your
Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!” And the people yawned and
the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. “I shall mandate
employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum
wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine
and transportation to the
clinics.” And the people said, “Give me
some of that!”
Then he said, “I shall penalize employers
who ship jobs overseas.”
And the people said, “Where’s my rebate
check?”
Then “The One” said, “I shall bankrupt
the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!” And
the people said, “Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we
don’t care for that part
about higher electric rates.” So “The
One” said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn’t enough to cover your
expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and you
troubles are over!”
Then He said, “Illegal immigrants feel
scorned and slighted. Let’s
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free
education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and
guaranteed housing...” And
the people said, “Hallelujah!” and they
made him king!
And so it came to pass that employers,
facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices
and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business
and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed.
Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were
without a means of support.
Then “The One” said, “I am the “the One”-
The Messiah - and I’m here
to save you! We shall just print more
money so everyone will have
enough!” But our foreign trading partners
said unto Him. “Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile
of camel dung! You will have
to pay more... And “The One” said, “Wait
a minute. That is
unfair!!” And the world said, “Neither
are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have
become a Socialist state and
a second-rate power. Now you shall play
by our rules!”
And the people cried out, “Alas, alas!!
What have we done?” But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set
upon The One and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was
dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people
were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And the Change “The One”
had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and
like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.
And the people beat their chests in
despair and cried out in anguish,
“give us back our nation and our pride
and our hope!!” But it was too
late, and their homeland was no more.
You may think this a fairy tale, but it’s
not.
It’s happening RIGHT NOW
THIS really tells it like it is. After
reading it — and before you go into the bathroom to throw-up — forward
it to your friends and those you know who care about our country and what
is happening to it under the rule of “Commissar Obamanation”.
I read that somewhere from a foreign paper just the other day. Its so true, Czech Republic maybe
And they, like the Poles and numerous other people, know of what they speak.
