Why to impeach Obama

[georgephillip]

Is impeachment preferable to hanging?

"If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged.

"By violation of the Nuremberg laws I mean the same kind of crimes for which people were hanged in Nuremberg. And Nuremberg means Nuremberg and Tokyo. So first of all you've got to think back as to what people were hanged for at Nuremberg and Tokyo.

"And once you think back, the question doesn't even require a moment's waste of time.

"For example, one general at the Tokyo trials, which were the worst, General Yamashita, was hanged on the grounds that troops in the Philippines, which were technically under his command (though it was so late in the war that he had no contact with them -- it was the very end of the war and there were some troops running around the Philippines who he had no contact with), had carried out atrocities, so he was hanged.

"Well, try that one out and you've already wiped out everybody."

If the Nuremberg Laws were Applied..., by Noam Chomsky (Talk delivered around 1990)

Here is the results of a poll among Conservatives of what charges to bring against Obama if he were to be impeached...

Pretty evenly split.

12.3 percent -- Obama's abuse of executive power to bypass Congress.
12.1 percent -- Obama's lawless implementation of his Amnesty Agenda.
12.0 percent -- Obama's use of the IRS to attack Tea Party and conservatives.
10.9 percent -- Obama's attacks on religious groups and religious liberties.
10.7 percent -- Obama's attacks on State's Rights.
10.5 percent -- Obama's attacks on free speech and the freedom of the press.
10.2 percent -- Obama's overt actions against the Middle East.
9.5 percent -- Obamacare.


Of course most also say don't impeach Obama because they don't want Biden in office and all acknowledge that the House leadership doesn't have the balls to even hold committee hearings on the subject let alone hold a full vote.

Just the mere threat of using the IRS to punish critics was the 1st article of impeachment of Richard Nixon. Obozo's actually used them.

Incorrect.

The first Article of Impeachment charged Nixon with obstruction of justice:

On [July 27,]1974, the House of Representatives charge[d] President Richard M. Nixon with the first of three articles of impeachment for obstruction of justice after he refused to release White House tape recordings that contained crucial information regarding the Watergate scandal.

Nixon charged with first of three articles of impeachment ? History.com This Day in History ? 7/27/1974

Moreover, unlike Nixon, President Obama has committed no 'crimes' – consequently there's no justification for 'impeachment.' And the president has made no 'threats' against anyone with regard to the IRS.

Horseshit. Six IRS computer disks damaged at the same time covering the period when IRS was harrassing the TEA Party? They are protecting OBOZO and doing his bidding.

And by the way, see post #kissmyass.

The president has committed no 'crimes.'

And the hard drive nonsense fails as a post hoc fallacy.

You're an ignorant and pathetic partisan hack, whose hatred of the president is unwarranted and idiotic.

 

[candycorn]

You people only have another 2 1/2 years or so to get this impeachment going.

What the hell are you waiting for?

Just as an aside; doesn't it seem as though at times the Conservatives have no party they can rely on in Congress?

Obviously, they want Obama out of office
Obviously, they don't have the votes to do it at the ballot box
Obviously, they cannot rely on the establishment GOP to carry out their absurd designs
Obviously, they are seen by that establishment as a group they can take for granted
Obviously, they don't like it but are unwilling to/unable to jump ship and flex any muscle

Wouldn't it seem as though they are what they say they are...

Smarter than other minorities
The "grown-ups" willing to tell others "no"
Support populist/popular programs only such as constitutional measures and "race neutral" policies.

...that they would have more support in their own party if not across the nation?

.

I'd bet the Dems would love to see this, and especially if it were announced right before the November mid-terms.

But, that's up to the GOP.

That poll tells me of the ignorance of the conservatives. If there was a high crime committed by Obama it is his death list and his murder of Americans by drone. Murder because they were not convicted of a crime in any court. The 16 year old boy he killed, if not murder then manslaughter, should be the grounds for impeachment over war crimes.

use of executive power no different from any other president
what "amnesty agenda"? what law does it violate?
there has been no proof of misuse of IRS except in the voices in your head
what attack on religious groups? what has he been convicted of?
there has been no attack on states rights. there has however been a rise of rabid neoconfederate insurrectionists.
what attacks on the press and speech have been found to have occurred?
what actions in the middle east?
the ACA has been upheld by the court.

freaking nutcase.... impeachment is for high crimes and misdemeanors NOT to advance your rabid rightwingnut agenda because you can't win damn national elections and probably never will again.

loon.

Do you Repubs just like to waste your time all the time? Don't you ever do anything productive?

What are the cons waiting for?

we are waiting fpr ISIL/ISIS to come take him back home.

12.3 percent -- Obama's abuse of executive power to bypass Congress. he hasn't abused any executive power
12.1 percent -- Obama's lawless implementation of his Amnesty Agenda. he hasn't implemented andy Amnest to anyone
12.0 percent -- Obama's use of the IRS to attack Tea Party and conservatives.Obama never used the Irs to attack the tea party
10.9 percent -- Obama's attacks on religious groups and religious liberties.
10.7 percent -- Obama's attacks on State's Rights. Obama never attacked any states rights
10.5 percent -- Obama's attacks on free speech and the freedom of the press. Obama never attacks on free speech and the freedom of the press of anyone
10.2 percent -- Obama's overt actions against the Middle East. another republican that can stand the heat
9.5 percent -- Obamacare. even now 76% of republicans like Obama care that would be another reason that repubklicans will lose this next election if they continue their bull shit...

Of course most also say don't impeach Obama because they don't want Biden in office and all acknowledge that the House leadership doesn't have the balls to even hold committee hearings on the subject let alone hold a full vote.

the only reason these republicans won't hold impeachment proceedings is becasue of their polling ... 78% of the voting public say they will vote against any republican in their state if they try to impeach obama... that's the only reason...

isn't it odd every time republicans don't get their way they try to impeach a dem president
first Clinton now obama ... sounds like a lot of sour grapes to me

 

[Wildman]

Dumb ass.

"No congressional support for Libyan action (violation of the War Powers Act ). Obama lied to the American people when he said that there were no US troops on the ground in Libya and then later said they were only 'logistical troops.'

"Obama violated the War Powers Act of 1973 by conducting a war against Libya without Congressional authorization."

Surely, Obama isn't any different from all other US Presidents when it comes to good reasons for impeachment?

War Crimes??

wellllll........, YES, he is guilty of WAR CRIMES!!!!

Impeachment is for crimes, in case you didn't know that.

you do realize it was a repub-lie-tard that said the 1st was IRS with nixion ... we realize you knew that ... we all know repub-lie-tards aren't very bright

Obama should be impeached because he is clearly incompetent and reckless with the powers of the office- IOW, you let the fox into the hen house.

It's all but certain Obama will go down in history like a corn schooner sent to sea duty.

Yes Obama should be impeached if not only for the display to all what a small majority of stupid people are able to accomplish. That phrase comes to mind "never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large groups".

Obama should be impeached to set an example to other unqualified would be candidates to think twice whether they have what it takes to be a leader. Not a failure
