Drop talk of Impeachment, NOW

NO. Absolutely NO. The attempt would do precisely what the Clinton impeachment did for Clinton, and divide the nation further. All to get Biden, who would then run as an incumbent prez?
I assure you, that men like Henry Jackson, Hubert Humphrey, and Harry Truman are spinning in their graves.
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if this is what Americans want in a prez.
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if the voters KNEW he would do all this if they would have voted for him in 2012 .
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if the voters want a nation that can’t tell a dangerous deal from a bad deal from a good deal.
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if the voters want a nation that supports the Muslim Brotherhood everywhere.
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if the voters want a nation that abandons allies?
The R’s should be asking in a UNIFIED fashion if the voters want a nation SHRINKING economically, and jobs at fast food joints, instead of careers building things?
All of the questions add up to how well we do in that last, most important question.
Those sentences should be pounded home on every interview ..ON CNN, ABC, NBC, and CBS, and even MSNBC.
Those sentences should be on the lips of R’s in every sound bite of BOTH Tea Party R’s and ‘chamber of commerce’ R’s. No public statement should get by without this message.
Are the last few months the nation you want, Americans?
Are the last few months the world you want to live in? 
Because the last few months is the nation and the world Obama and the Progressives have BUILT.

Epa, would you agree that Obama has ratcheted up his lawlessness several notches in the past few weeks, with the Taliban release and the Illegal Alien and relocations?

He is ABSOLUTELY in the IGDAF phase of term 2 and is starting to show who he REALLY is.

YES. But I am about WINNING the elections, not emotional satisfaction of an impeachgasm.

If I could believe we could BOTH convict (67 votes in senate) an impeached Obama AND win 2014/16 then I would be for impeachment.

However, I think it would help or guarantee D election success the way this nation is today.

As it is IMHO it will take 12-25 years AT A MINIMUM to reverse the last 6 and what will be 8 years. The world has seen what America has CHOSEN... the American people.

I don't know if this encounter is true or not, but the resulting analysis should be considered. We discussed this result on AOW and my show.

Some years ago, the University of Nebraska asked a consulting firm to help build a crowd for a debate between William Rusher, the publisher of the conservative National Review Magazine, and Nat Hentoff, of the liberal The Village Voice.


While William Rusher and William F. Buckley, Jr. and National Review, were already familiar, it was only necessary to read a few back issues of The Village Voice to understand that Nat Hentoff was (and is) one of the world's most articulate liberals. We filled the auditorium; however, we didn't know what to expect. Would the debaters be civil or uncivil?


More than civil, they listened respectfully to what the other had to say. The audience was treated to the best ideas that both conservatism and liberalism had to offer in an atmosphere of respect and even genuine friendship between the two icons of their differing points of view.


Unfortunately, in April, 2012, Mr. Rusher went to his Eternal rest. Fortunately, Mr. Hentoff is still with us and continues to give voice to liberal causes. But what brings this particular column about is that Mr. Hentoff, the consummate left-winger, has just called for the impeachment of President Obama, saying that Mr. Obama is the most dangerous and destructive president ever and is far worse than Mr. Hentoff's former target, President Richard Nixon.


Mr. Hentoff says Mr. Obama has thrown the U.S. Constitution under the bus and is ruling as a dictator. As evidence, Hentoff cites Mr. Obama's delay of the employer mandate in ObamaCare, the changing of types of plans available under ObamaCare, ignoring our immigrations laws, refusing to deport illegal immigrants, enacting stricter gun-control measures without Congressional legislation, sealing his presidential records, creating government offices and Czars without authorization, and changing the pay grades of selected federal employees without authority.


For some work-a-day Americans, these burrs under Mr. Hentoff's saddle might seem insignificant; however, one of conservatism's leading voices, St. John's University Professor M. Northrup Buechner, writing in Forbes Magazine on November 19, 2013, saysMr. Obama's unlawful actions could lead to a troubling scenario:

"A Republican Congress is elected and repeals ObamaCare over a Democrat President's veto. The President refuses to enforce the repeal. The Supreme Court rules that the President's refusal is unconstitutional. The President denounces the ruling and refuses to be bound by it.


"If the President persists in rejecting all authority other than his own, the Dénouement [outcome] would depend on the side taken by the Armed Forces..."

Writing in The Washington Times on November 12, 2013, Commander J.D. Gordon, USN (Ret.), a former Pentagon spokesman, says "...every week since President Obama took office, we've been hearing that another top leader has been summarily fired, despite decades of loyal service and valuable experience protecting the nation. Statistically speaking, it's actually closer to one every 8.8 days, a staggering 200 military brass shown the door in less than five years.

Thus, one wonders if this Stalin-like purge of generals and admirals is a precautionary step taken by Mr. Obama in advance of a descent into the darkness of a Constitutional crisis.

On of the biggest problems we are facing is a country divided. Even though impeachment is what he deserves (not just him, but many in the administration,)it would further damage the country.

It may sound naive, but what is needed is for Democrats, other than the far left crazies, wake up and stop following the party line, which may or may not be the president's line.

The battles we are facing and will continue to face, cannot rest on Republicans only. Democrats in Congress, and other political figures have to understand this is no longer American politicking. This is a national and an international catastrophe, and nothing, or nobody in sight seems ready or willing to stop the mudslide.
