Top GOP Senator Says Obama Could Be Impeached Over ‘Most Egregious Cover-Up in American History’
The Blaze ^ | May 10, 2013 | Madeleine Morgenstern

The top-ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee said President Barack Obama could possibly be impeached over what happened in Benghazi.

Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) said in a radio interview Thursday that “of all the great cover-ups in history” — including the Pentagon papers, Iran-Contra and Watergate — Benghazi “is going to go down as most serious, most egregious cover-up in American history.”

“We may be starting to use the I-word before too long,” Inhofe said on the Las Vegas-based “Rusty Humphries Show.”

“The I-word meaning impeachment?” Humphries asked.

“Yeah,” Inhofe confirmed.

When Humphries questioned the likelihood of impeachment, Inhofe said it wouldn’t be immediate.....

Then why are we discouraging our congress from supporting impeachment. Comments like the senatora are trial balloons to see if there is popular support for impeachment. The defeatist comments on this thread disgust me, are we all going to act like Speaker Beohner with no backbone. I say “damn the torpedoes full speed ahead.”

Additionally, only with the public airing of impeachment hearings in the House Judiciary committee will the actual truth have a chance to sink into American minds of all races, even as the enemy fifth column, the media, seek to spin the truth into protective lies for little barry bastard boy. If America has reached the state where the truth being aired is too ‘dangerous’, then we are truly lost and the Republic is over ... ‘A Republic, madame, if you can keep it.’

Unless by some unlikely chance Crazy Joe was in on the Benghazi shenanigans also.

People in this forum are ready for full speed ahead. Now if you have a great idea on getting Boehner and the house to go full speed ahead lets hear it.

We have been poking and prodding them for 4 years now.

The fake president should never have been allowed anywhere near the White House. He cannot pass a weapons background check.

WF, do yourself a favor and punch that guy's name into Gargle, or poke around in here a bit as there were at least two longish threads with info from FReepers familiar with the guy.

History of ties to CodePink and OWS, among others .. whoever his handlers are will be counting on folks not checking him out before signing up for what's very likely an ØFA setup and subsequent FedGoon turkey shoot.

An aggrieved citizens' assault on the maggots in DC has a definite appeal, but that loon is nowhere near the one to lead it.

Yes, 'loon' .. to extrapolate the old truism : the friend of my enemy is also my enemy.

Thanks, and you have also summed it up very well. Assess the situation, have a plan of action, keep a positive outlook, maintain that courage within you, swallow your fear, say a prayer to the Lord for guidance, and FIGHT. Rinse and repeat until we WIN.

he went to bed as Americans were under attack, then died and then he went to Vegas to help his election and then lied after with the help of Candy Crowley.

This is the most corrupt admin in modern history , worse then Watergate infact.

This admin, Obama, Clinton, Janet not got a clue, Holder the racist should all be removed

I've often wondered how anyone born in Joe Biden's era could possibly wind up as an America hating, progressive rat.

Yeah, he doesn't know what's he's doing, he's THE VICE-PRESIDENT....he's a heartbeat away....it's all about him.

Until he said Benghazi, I thought he was talking about the birth certificate.

Interesting. Sounds like a double agent to me.

Horse doovers. If the senator was a dem, I might believe it. Sadly, ain’t NUTHIN’ going to happen to the anointed one until his holiness says so.

I’ve got a better idea. Treason. Is that still punishable by firing squad?

Yes. I seem to recall that General Hamm was silenced and under house arrest.

With Comrade Obama nothing surprises me. But there is much more to the story of General Hamm, I suspect.

To be honest I’d rather him be found ineligible to hold office in the first place than to be impeached. If he is impeached he’ll simply be removed, leaving all of his acts remaining in place. If found ineligible to hold office, a stong case can be made to void every official act he has taken as president.

Or was he actively refusing to send aid for reasons of his own? that’s what I want to know.

Recall he had to get to a fund raiser in Las Vegas. Not kidding!

That’s my take on it too .. sounds like a setup for a bloody, pointless CF followed immediately by more anti-2A treason.

I am using POTUS wrong I guess since I am meaning the People of the United States not the President. don’t know it it matters to anyone but thought I would point this out.

The first use of POTUS that I saw was on a Secret Service schedule in 1976 where POTUS was used to mean President of the United States.

Agreed. Find him ineligible, then remove everything. But if that’s the case, a lot more folks need to be held accountable for Hussein’s usurpation. Top media folks, party apparatchiks, embedded govt employees who allowed the sham presidency to happen, knowing full well he was not legally allowed to assume the office should be prosecuted..
