With the full House of Representatives expected to vote on impeachment Wednesday, it seems appropriate to point outagainhow if Democrats public sentiments about impeachment were sincere, and not purely partisan, theyd have impeached Obama for the very same things many, many, many times.
In addition to abuse of power, Democrats have charged President Trump with obstruction of Congress over the refusal of the White House to simply allow individuals to testify. The Trump White House, like his predecessors, is very much aware of the separation of powers, and hasn't given Democrats open season to call any witness they want to be grilled for hours without some pushback. This is technically how the system is supposed to work. Congress can subpoena witnesses and documents from the executive branch, but the executive branch can fight those in the courts. Democrats, not wanting to prolong impeachment and risk severe public blowback, have essentially argued that such refusals to comply with the first request merit obstruction of Congress.
So, lets take a look at just a few examples of their golden boy Obama doing the exact same thing, and then we can ask ourselves Why didnt Congress impeach Obama over this? If the same standard theyre applying to Trump today were applied to Obama, the latter would have been kicked to the curb.
5. Refusing to let the White House social secretary testify on party-crashers scandal
In 2009, two party-crashers got past the Secret Service during a state dinner, and managed to meet and shake hands with Barack Obama. How does such a breach in security happen? Congress wanted to know and opened up an investigation. For some reason, though, the White House wasnt equally interested in investigating the breach, and when White House Social Secretary Desirée Rogers was asked to testify before Congress,...

Obama was never eligible.

Dems say that was all in the past; now Trump ......
Give it a rest. Whoever complained about seeing this 1000s of times recently nailed it.
Sod off, swampy.
This is not “he faked his birth certificate” : this is, “by what he openly admits, he was Constitutionally ineligible and Pelosi KNEW” (so did the GOP-e)
Forfeit part of the Constitution, lose it all.
Amen!
Thank you, hoosiermama.
Pelosi also thought impeaching Bush for the Iraq war was a “Waste of time” but a freakin PHONE CALL is a reason to impeach Trump..Obama can use the IRS to target Conservative groups, give guns to cartels who used them to murder a border patrol agent..give Iran MILLIONS of OUR money in the middle of the night, let our Ambassador DIE in Benghazi and LIE about it, and NOTHING happens to him..NOTHING

Nice paychecks and pensions, eh?
Thanks for helping out your fellow citizens.
Take that duct tape off your mouths.
Punks.
“Bitter clingers”, “charter of negative liberties”, etc.,etc. How cool is that POS?
FUBO
BUMP!
This list of charges is lame. That SOB weaponized the Federal government against his opposition, routinely violating their Constitutional protections and this list cannot even bother to mention that?
That’s more like it and like it says, “for starters”.
Yes, I should’ve ‘sourced’ all of the items I listed. If my fellow FReepers wish to edit my editorial post to include sourcing and adding additional impeachable offenses, I welcome it! GO FOR IT!!
Just did. He needs our support now more than ever.
I believe we will prevail, just by virtue of the fact that the man is where he is, despite the horrific forces arrayed against him.
