Are there sufficient and compelling offenses by President Obama to impeach him?

[auditor0007]

I believe there is no excuse for the House to not move forward with the impeachment of Obama which is the constitutional solution to our present circumstances. And for the Republican controlled House to not utilize this solution, its members are enabling the ongoing destruction of our country!


But getting back to our Constitution, just what were our Founder’s expressed intentions regarding impeachment of a President? Let us read their intentions which were made on July 20th when framing our Constitution:


Mr. MADISON thought it indispensable that some provision should be made for defending the Community agst. the incapacity, negligence or perfidy of the chief Magistrate. The limitation of the period of his service, was not a sufficient security. He might lose his capacity after his appointment. He might pervert his administration into a scheme of peculation or oppression. He might betray his trust to foreign powers.

Mr. GERRY urged the necessity of impeachments. A good magistrate will not fear them. A bad one ought to be kept in fear of them. He hoped the maxim would never be adopted here that the chief magistrate could do no wrong.

Mr. RANDOLPH. The propriety of impeachments was a favorite principle with him. Guilt wherever found ought to be punished. The Executive will have great opportunitys of abusing his power; particularly in time of war when the military force, and in some respects the public money will be in his hands.

Mr. Govr. MORRIS'S opinion had been changed by the arguments used in the discussion. He was now sensible of the necessity of impeachments, if the Executive was to continue for any [FN12] time in office. Our Executive was not like a Magistrate having a life interest, much less like one having an hereditary interest in his office. He may be bribed by a greater interest to betray his trust; and no one would say that we ought to expose ourselves to the danger of seeing the first Magistrate in forign pay, without being able to guard agst. it by displacing him.

It was moved & 2ded. to postpone the question of impeachments which was negatived. Mas. & S. Carolina only being ay. On ye. Question, Shall the Executive be removeable on impeachments &c.? Mas. no. Ct. ay. N. J. ay. Pa. ay. Del ay. Md. ay. Va. ay. N. C. ay. S. C. no. Geo. ay.

Is it not a fact that our President is ignoring our immigration laws and is allowing our borders to be invaded; has engaged in bribery in the passage of Obamacare (the "Cornhusker Kickback" and the infamous $300 million "Louisiana Purchase"); has lied with impunity to the American People that under Obamacare they could keep their existing health insurance and doctors if the like them; has engaged in a money laundering operation under the guise of “green energy” in which he has plundered billions of dollars from our federal treasury and transferred them to his political donors (see: 80% of Obama green jobs money goes to Obama donors.); and has usurped legislative power when he arbitrarily gutted the work requirement for welfare recipients passed by Congress and signed into law by President Clinton?

Our wise founding fathers placed the power of impeachment in the hands of the people’s representatives to be specifically used to remove the kind of president we now have. Our nation cannot survive as a constitutionally limited Republican Form of Government for another two years with President Obama and his henchman Eric Holder in the driver’s seat.

Why is the Republican controlled House not moving forward with impeachment and letting the chips fall where they may? Do our Representatives in the House not have a sworn duty to stop the above mentioned tyranny?

*yawn* You got something new to talk about?

 

[Vigilante]

Get a hold of yourself...you are like someone asking me about canadians and going over on the reasoning! Why hasn't a special prosecutor been assigned?

Come on Nutz, are you old enough that you were taught civics in High School?....No I guess that was before most here's time. A Special prosecutor is assigned by the President or the ATTORNEY GENERAL only, and you think they would assign an INDEPENDENT, OUTSIDE, PROSECUTOR?

or just a SNIPPET from the IRS contempt......"Lerner has now been held in contempt of Congress, and will be passed along to the Justice Department, although nobody really expects Attorney General Eric Holder to do anything. What is really needed is a special prosecutor that is independent of the government, to further investigate and draw up charges where necessary, bypassing the Obama administration’s stonewalling efforts."

BREAKING: House Votes for "Special Prosecutors" for Obama, the IRS

 

[Nutz]

Yes, Congress will vote for a special prosecutor...why have they not done it for the other issues?

Neither will another dozen or so calls for impeachment.

 

[HenryBHough]

Obama could attempt to rape The Statue of Liberty (not just figuratively, why repeat something already done?) and He would not be prosecuted or even questioned.

What a picture! Akin to the old saw about a mouse climbing an elephant's hind leg with intent to fornicate.

Say, remind me, please, why it's still called The "Justice" Department.

If the Republicans were as good as the subversives at PROPAGANDA, they would be able to get MILEAGE out of each count of an impeachment that would never be brought before the Senate....Spell out for the LIVS exactly what the POS did, how it was Unconstitutional, and the Obomanations refusals to amend the situation. For the life of me, why the RIGHT doesn't hire the BEST PR firm they can buy, is beyond me!

Propaganda?


I take it you are not familiar with what constitutes impeachable offenses as expressed by our Founding Fathers, and particularly so with reference to the President? If so, let us review their expressed feelings stated on July 20th when framing our Constitution:

Do we, the American People, really want to allow the fundamental transformation of America as envisioned by Obama to continue?

*yawn* You got something new to talk about?

I noticed you did not refute any of the charges listed above. And so, let us add a new charge. Obama was held in contempt of a federal court's ruling by continuing his deepwater-drilling moratorium after the policy was struck down by the Court (See: U.S. in Contempt Over Gulf Drill Ban, Judge Rules).
