IMPEACHMENT GOES MAINSTREAM
Breitbart ^ | November 14, 2014 | By Ben Shapiro

Posted on 11/14/2014 12:50:54 PM PST by Jim Robinson

In July, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin wrote a widely-publicized op-ed for Breitbart News. “Enough is enough of the years of abuse from this president,” she wrote. “Without borders, there is no nation. Obama knows this. Opening our borders to a flood of illegal immigrants is deliberate. This is his fundamental transformation of America.” Then, she dropped the bomb: “It’s time to impeach; and on behalf of American workers and legal immigrants of all backgrounds, we should vehemently oppose any politician on the left or right who would hesitate in voting for articles of impeachment.”

Believe it or not, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had actually suggested impeachment even earlier, this time over the Bowe Bergdahl prisoner swap, in which the Obama administration freed five top-level Taliban terrorists in exchange for the alleged deserter. He stated, “There will be people on our side calling for his impeachment if he did that.” And Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) said in March that Obama could be up for impeachment if he continued his “unconstitutional approaches” to immigration reform and Obamacare.

But it was Palin’s comments that drove ire. At the time, Palin’s critics leapt on the comments to suggest that Republicans more broadly were planning impeachment; House Speaker John Boehner immediately fired back, stating that he disagreed with Palin on impeachment.

There were some who defended Palin’s position – Mark Levin explained, “our country is being destroyed….Here’s the dead truth. Obama should be impeached, but he won’t be impeached. Obama should be impeached if the Republicans take the Senate, but he won’t be impeached if the Republicans take the Senate. Obama has committed high crimes and misdemeanors by violating the constitution.”

Spoke to Rep. Kevin Brady's office this morning. The lady I spoke to mentioned defund language in the upcoming appropriations bill...daring Obozo to veto, thus shutting down the government.

She mentioned a possible court ordered injunction and legal action and a possible cause injunction from the states if they show a court possible damage caused by this EO.

She didn't mention impeachment talk at all. Also, mentioned a meeting of reps. to discuss speaker ship. No one stepped up to oppose Boehner.

“Obama thinks the people will rise up and make him God”......

He is WAY WRONG with that thought, more likely the people may “rise up” but it won't be to crown him King, they will be bringing a guillotine.

Hey. I’d happily (and gratefully) swap the idiot Biden for this Marxist, Muslim, America-hating, sociopathic traitor.

You might want to take a look at the Daily Mail. I just printed up a story on their website that says that the White House itself is putting this out as bait. The object is; according to the article, to destroy the GOP’s creditability.

It is SO F****ING OBVIOUS where Obama’s priorities are, why can’t TPTB see it? And if they are actually awake and understand what he is doing, why are they sitting there DOING NOTHING? Every single initiative the lawless SOB has implemented in his 6 years of office has had the goal of weakening, overburdening, or outright destroying our country. It’s pedal to the medal now, he thinks he has nothing to lose. His legacy will be the destruction of the US, and he knows it.

From my experience liberals are cowards. If tomorrow the press decided that black is evil, liberals would in lock step don a Swastika arm band and demand “freedom”

Obama thinks the people will rise up and make him God if the GOP try to Impeach him

Since the voter fraud didn't show up this time around, I doubt that will happen.

Bookmark Ping to Sarah's List!

I heard it here on F.R. Frist.

Sarah says she knows and reads F.R., So I can only imagine where she saw it first......

Free Republic is more influential than we know.

> Obama thinks the people will rise up and make him God if the GOP try to Impeach him and the same if the GOP try to throw out all the crazy things he’s putting in place

I say it’s worth taking a chance. To not act is keaving too much to chance.People are starting to realize that he IS a Manchurian Candidare and is answering to powers above him to destroy the U.S. not just transform it...

So we can all go home now.
