When the Obama scandals pile up and Obama's image of integrity starts to enter the shredder, what do the most partisan reporters do to fend off the bad publicity? Try to portray the conservatives as "nutso" impeachers. At The Daily Beast, there was this headline Monday: "The Coming Attempt to Impeach Obama: The idea of impeaching Obama is industrial-strength insane. Republicans will probably try anyway, predicts Michael Tomasky."
Tomasky portrays conservatives as "crazy" and Obama as the most clueless of presidents: he knew absolutely nothing about the Benghazi talking points? Then who elected him expecting a competent executive? Tomasky leads with his heart, with his fervent Obama-loving hope that history does not record these scandals as significant:
When the histories of this administration are written, I hope fervently that last Friday, May 10, does not figure prominently in them. But I fear that it might: the double-barrel revelations that the White House hasn’t quite been telling the whole story on Benghazi and that some mid-level IRS people targeted some Tea Party groups for scrutiny are guaranteed to ramp up the crazy.
But to what extent? I fear it could be considerable, and the people in the White House damn well better fear the same, or we’re going to be contemplating an extremely ugly situation come 2015, especially if the Republicans have held the House and captured the Senate in the by-elections.
Tomasky has come quite a way from boosting the "coming Obama landslide" that never arrived in 2012. He felt compelled to trash the would-be impeachers because he had mentioned the I-word on TV and the U.K. Daily Mail jumped on it....

‘Crazy’? That’s a real truck load of transference there Daffy.
what is interesting is that this story came out before lots of the bombs dropped, some pre-circling the wagons.
Argh! I get so mad about what is going on with this Administration that sometimes it gets me so angry about why the stupid party (Republicans) can seem to find their way out of their paper bag. You’d think that actions against the Constitution would get them riled up but NO, they are too worried about their re-election status (I guess).
Maybe they are too busy waiting to see if the public is actually mad about this Administration’s absurd actions but I doubt it! They seem to be waiting for someone to tell them that it is okay to argue or at least differ with what the Master Obama says! For these Republicans I say - good luck on your re-election. If that happens, it will be one of those lucky events - nothing to do with such words as warrented, job performance, pro-American.
That’s because the establishment core of the “stupid party” are liberals themselves and don’t have any principles other than getting elected. Which in this case will end up failing them.
The worst thing is that there probably is no link to the White House. Obama’s little minions will do it anyway because they know what he wants. He has made enough references to the Tea Partiers and people like Rush Limbaugh - “a nod is as good as a wink to a blind bat” as Monty Python once said - in other words the mere mention of a group of people by Obama or his slovenly crew in the White house is enough to sick the attack dogs onto them.

“... Obama as the most clueless of presidents: he knew absolutely nothing about the Benghazi talking points?”
The Sgt. Schultz defense!
Yes, unfortunately that will be the main reason that they will never be winners again - but I hope that another party becomes prominent since a very large majority of folks have no party to vote for at this time. The individual seems to have gone the way of the Whigs.
Agree.., We can’t have two liberal parties competing for the same position and actually care which one wins!
” I get so mad about what is going on with this Administration”

Any traditional American would be mad, but we no longer have the America that we grew up in.
Over half of the voters have bought into Marxist/Leninist ideology, or just totally brain dead. As I have often posted, I blame this on fully Marxist media and education systems.
I do not see America recovering in my lifetime, but I am no longer there to endure the humiliation.
Obumbo could crash and burn from his illegality, but not likely. Even so, there are plenty of Commies waiting to take his place.
The Republicans do not have anyone to even excite a dog in heat.
Good point. Reminds me of Henry II and Thomas Becket: “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest.”
With a big difference being, Hank and Tom were friends while there isn’t a molecule of love lost between half of America and the executive branch.
Pretty good evidence the fuse is lit on CWII.
Somehow I knew, before I even clicked the link, that it was the People’s Republic of Takoma Park. There’s not a single hard-left idea that they HAVEN’T embraced. . .
Nice reference - yes exactly like that!
The GOP must impeach Obama over Bengali...or else they will be culpable
Who cares what a failed liberal Newsweak says
Daily Beast? LOL...how the hell can anyone take their tripe seriously with that name?
Tomasky is drinking too much of his own bathwater.
It is people like him that are industrial strength insane.
