Valsuelm Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Won't happen. Very sadly and to our great detriment the U.S. is far too polarized along 'left/right' politics, like so many other nations these days. If it wasn't Bush would have been impeached. Both Bush and Obama have done more than enough to be impeached many many times over (and the same could be said for most of the people in the Senate and Congress). Also, the Senate, which tries an impeached President, is not currently how it was originally designed to be (the 17th amendment is one of the ones that needs repealing) and as it currently is, is really just far too corrupt to properly handle an impeachment trial even if the house votes to impeach. Not to mention the judge who would preside over it is a beyond corrupt bought and paid for evil MFer who is playing for the same team Obama plays for. If Obama actually was impeached the trial proceedings would be a farce no matter how guilty he is. Our mainstream media is bought and paid for and petty as can be as well in regards to domestic politics, so the serious Constitutional and legal issues are generally overlooked in favor of sensationalistic crap and lies meant for a polarized audience with a short memory and little understanding of history, the Constitution, the laws of the land, and their importance. And that's the audience, most people don't even pay attention. They're too busy dancing with the stars, watching some sports event, gossiping about Snooki, or something else that has no real bearing in their life. The impeachment of Clinton exemplified this, and memories of that trial are still fresh enough in many folks minds. Also, the elites that pull Obama's strings aren't likely to sacrifice him, especially considering that at the moment and for the foreseeable future at least there's nothing substantial to sacrifice him for. He's their baby, has been delivering quite well, and they are full of enough hubris to not give all that much poo about the reputation of the U.S..

Guard Dog Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Never happen. Should not happen. He's been a bad president and a poor leader but impeachment is for removing a president who has actually broken laws. He's done some questionable things, looked to other way on some things that are arguably illegal (turning the IRS into the lefts own thought police for an example) but I didn't think Clinton should have been impeached and he actually did commit a crime (perjury) I certainly don't think BHO should be who hasn't. What I want for Barack Obama is for him to lose both houses of Congress this year (a good probability) which will neutralize the government. Congress will protect us from him, he'll protect us from them. Then I'd like to see him quietly run out the clock on his next two years, leave office, build a library, spend time with his family and make $1M a year on the lecture circuit and just go away. 3 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be the most reasonable I've seen you be about Obama, and I agree with you. Although I want to see the Republicans clean house a bit and refocus. For example many of the top Republicans have changed direction on immigration, and I see that as a positive. But yeah, no President has ever been successfully impeached, it won't start now. Heck he'd be out of office by the time they could get a full trial together, with the speed of everything in DC today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK htiw klaw eriF Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I don't like any of the local Texas Republicans. Don't know what they're like in your area Hurlshot, but around here they're still railing about immigration and abortion pretty loudly. On-Topic: I doubt Obama will be impeached. Makes a fair bit of political theater, but there is no realistic situation where he can be charged with a legitimate offense. 1 "Akiva Goldsman and Alex Kurtzman run the 21st century version of MK ULTRA." - majestic "you're a damned filthy lying robot and you deserve to die and burn in hell." - Bartimaeus "Without individual thinking you can't notice the plot holes." - InsaneCommander "Just feed off the suffering of gamers." - Malcador "You are calling my taste crap." -Hurlshort "thankfully it seems like the creators like Hungary less this time around." - Sarex "Don't forget the wakame, dumbass" -Keyrock "Are you trolling or just being inadvertently nonsensical?' -Pidesco "we have already been forced to admit you are at least human" - uuuhhii "I refuse to buy from non-woke businesses" - HoonDing "feral camels are now considered a pest" - Gorth "Melkathi is known to be an overly critical grumpy person" - Melkathi "Oddly enough Sanderson was a lot more direct despite being a Mormon" - Zoraptor "I found it greatly disturbing to scroll through my cartoon's halfing selection of genitalias." - Wormerine "I love cheese despite the pain and carnage." - ShadySands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgambit Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) no President has ever been successfully impeached, No. Andrew Johnson (violation of the Tenure of Office Act) and Bill Clinton (Perjury and Obstruction of Justice) were impeached. They were acquitted in their trials but they were impeached. http://www.ask.com/wiki/Impeachment_in_the_United_States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment Article One of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power of impeachment and the Senate the sole power to try impeachments. Unlike the British system, impeachment is only the first of two stages, and conviction requires a two-thirds vote. Impeachment does not necessarily result in removal from office; it is only a legal statement of charges, parallel to an indictment in criminal law. An official who is impeached faces a second legislative vote (whether by the same body or another), which determines conviction, or failure to convict, on the charges embodied by the impeachment.

Meshugger Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Obama approved, legally, dronestrikes that have killed between 2000-4000 people. All terrorists, thanks the jurisdictional process of defining them as such. He will not be impeached unless takes money from the treasury in and puts it in his own pocket. Now that is just unacceptable on any level. 1 "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would prefer the USA sending ground troops into western Pakistan to kill the members of the Taliban and Al-Qaeda who were actively involved in the insurgency in Afghanistan? 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Yes and Yemen is also a hotbed of Islamic fundamentalism I am not saying that there haven't been civilian causalities and that is always reregrettable. But don't kid yourself, this is a war.

I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future.
