Impeach in the House, trial in the Senate.
Repos control House. Impeachment = Yes.
Dems control Senate. Conviction = No.
Any impeachment before the November elections would be futile, and a waste of political capital. Actually, more like the January '15 seating of the newly elected congressmen.
After November, if Obama has the sense to just Sit The Fuck Down and Shut The Fuck Up then he can ride out his last two years and retire a "successful" president. And if the Repos have any sense then that's what they will let him do, and then try again in '16.
In the last 25 years the Repo establishment leadership hasn't shown that they have ANY sense at all. Literally the last act of Republican leadership was Newt's Contract With America, and he did that as a leadership outsider.
That's neither hear nor there, though. Obama is too much of a narcissist to NOT try to bully a Repo controlled Congress. He'll back congress into a corner, fully expecting them to back down, and they'll have to respond with impeachment.
The Republicans have become the party of symbolism. They don't do anything productive but chase red herrings for political points. If they try impeachment again(remember Clinton) it is another "see we did something" that has no teeth and will accomplish zero. Their brand has tanked. What the hell has happened to them?!?!?
easedel - time for government to get whitewashed completely and start overBeing an independent voter I agree with this statement but at the same time Obama is out of control and needs to be stopped
easedel - time for government to get whitewashed completely and start over
The military swore to defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Well... they better get busy on domestic front.
Obama is just as bad as other politicians. Stop with the witch hunt. All of these cunts in suits need their pink slips handed to them.
Government sucks anymore.

Please go back to Russia. You obviously have no grasp of how things work here.
When immigrants come here they shouldn't promote armed revolution against our legally elected representatives.

I've been here for more than twenty years. I've grew up here.
I have a good grasp of how things work. It's you who lost the perspective here.
Oh really? The military should depose the president because of petty political squabbles?
You know we have these things called elections right?

Executive amnesty? Against the will of majority of Americans?
This is what you call "petty political squabbles"?
This is democracy somehow?
I haven't heard anything about Obama actually saying he would do that but even if he did we have checks and balances from the other branches of government to determine if that action is constitutional.
Is overthrowing a legally elected representative in a military coup democracy somehow? Even though we live in a republic.
So, how much is this going to cost the taxpayer?
tetris - So, how much is this going to cost the taxpayer?
Probably nothing because Obama hasn't said anything about "executive amnesty" as far as I've seen and BreitBart/Peter King are a couple of shit talking bullshitters.

This. They have also wasted hundreds of millions of dollars while moving the country backwards
Yes because that progressive agenda has really helped in the advancement of the country. I mean look how well it has worked in the inner cities that are dominated by democrats.

You're right the conservative agenda has been much better for the deep south. Highest teen pregnancy rate, high school drop out rates, poverty rates, obesity rates...I could continue.
Both parties are so blinded by their on rhetoric and bullshit that we are going no where. It is pathetic.

I never said I agree with the right. I think both sides have fucked this country up. I could continue about the problems with democrats and republicans. This partisanship is such bullshit that people refuse to accept anything from the other side and yet everything their team says is right is just ridiculous. I can't stand tons of shit from both sides. I also have seen good solutions to issues come from both sides.

To be fair, both ends of the spectrum come together on the truly important issues. Things like perpetual war and corporate welfare, etc. The rest is just political bickering.
repeated violation of the separation of powers
In some instances the president has the authority to act unilaterally. In others he does not.
Also, repeated malfeasance in office - Fast and Furious, Bengazi (Who gave the Stand Down order?), IRS, NSA.
mishandling of foreign affairs - Reagan won the cold war with Russia, Obama let it rekindle. Bush pacified Iraq with the surge, Obama let it radicalize again. Syria, Egypt.
The man is an empty suit, and history will not be kind to him.
