Impeachment is a political act.

So lets use it to our advantage, not our disadvantage.

Impeachment now will vastly increase Democrat turn out in November.

Stupid idea.

People who are angry that the Caliph does not enforce the law or makes his own law should not stand in the way when the legal remedy for such misconduct is discussed. Impeachment is demanded in the interests of justice, not politics.

Of course, the GOP-E and its enablers on this thread would have you believe otherwise.

> No. He is not.

I’m not saying that 0bamarx doesn’t deserve to be impeached. He does. In fact, he should be h*nged for tre*s0n.

But any attempt to unseat him would be political suicide by his opponents at this time. The Senate would never convict, and we would waste what precious little political capital we have right now.

Besides, we’d get stuck with crazy Uncle Joe as president. He’s not only stupid, he’s not only a useful idiot for the puppetmasters pulling 0bama’s strings, he’s bloody barmy!

0bamao and his masters would love nothing better than for the Pubbies to try to impeach him now. In fact, I think he’s trying to goad them into it.

Agree.

But... was useful that Palin go the “I word” out there. Now that’s the debate.

You can yell IMPEACH all you want. But when you realize Obama’s term will be over and done before House and Senate votes, then why bother?

And consider Obammie WANTS this impeachment distraction. Just like Birther Gate and a hundred other White Hut scandals; The Kenyan will use this to cover even more crimes and misdeeds.

If the purpose of impeachment is to convict there is not point doing it until the Senate is 60 in our hands. Even then it is necessary to have a 60
5 majority strongly supportive4 of removing O from office. As a matter of p[rinciple Sarah is absolutely correct. Obama is substantially in violation of his Constitutional authority. As a political matter impeachment will only slander O and give the Democrats one more bludgeoning tool.
Rather than impeachment Obama should be tried by a military tribunal as a combatant enemy. That would make sense.

Agree. Impeachment plays into the Obama Victim Card Syndrome and will super motivate his (unemployed and suffering demotivated) base.

Look at the radio lies they had to run to get Thad voters in MS, and even then they had to turn around and pay them.

Spot-on.

Agreed!
Those who are NOT on the ballot should carry the Impeachment water until after November.

Obama proves the fact that AFFIRMATIVE ACTION does not work.

Banning the teaching and speaking of Spanish in Public Schools would expel many Illegal Alien Invaders from US Public Schools, and thus reduce the financial impact to US Taxpayers whose taxes pay for Public Schools.

The failure of the Obama Administration to protect the Citizens of the US from the expenses and job losses caused by the Invasion of Illegal Alien Invaders from Spanish-speaking countries proves that this Obama-caused “Dreamer” Invasion was implemented by Obama to “Fundamentally transform the United States of America.”

He should be impeached but will never be. Repubicans don’t have the spine to even use the power of the purse over him.

But what’s the point if you don’t have 67 US Senators committed to voting for a conviction?

We never will have that 67 Senators! Get it? The communists empire in America is strong and the 2014 will prove that. We may get the Senate to kick Reid in the ars but 67, forget it. Impeachment by the House will get national attention. Like Clinton, the exposure will inform Americans we have a rotten lying communists Muslim traitor.

Palin has to know impeachment of Obama would be as successful as impeachment of Clinton was. Impeachment in the House, no conviction in the Senate.

There has to be another reason for her to be speaking about this option now. She is high profile, and she gets buzz.

Maybe it is to just put it into more people's minds that this is a remedy to the current lawless situation.

Maybe it's to motivate voters in primaries. Maybe its to motivate statehouses. Maybe it is to give voice to the Constitutional remedy which she can easily voice from her position.

Then again, maybe she has an inside that something catastrophic is right around the corner and for which impeachment can be the only remedy and the catastrophe would be so profound that even (D)'s in the Senate would find it in their own interest to convict him and throw him out.

Then she would be looked at as not only prescient, but almost predictive of the dragon slaying as well -- and that has a political cred all its own, that even her detractors could not deny.

FReegards!

Because Boehner disagrees, is exactly why obama should be impeached...Boehner is wrong about everything.
