BREAKING NEWS: Congressman Finally Makes Move To Impeach Barack H. by lionstone: 9:45am On Apr 11, 2015
After 7 years of numerous high
crimes and misdemeanors, a
member of the U.S. House of
Representatives finally just made
a move that could set off
impeachment proceedings
against Barack Obama.
Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., is
preparing to introduce a
resolution setting forth the
House’s definition of “high
crimes and misdemeanors,”
drawing an unmistakable line in
the sand that would directly
challenge Obama’s actions.
This is the single most
significant action taken by a
Republican towards
impeachment to date.
The resolution introduces 11
different specific actions that fit
the Constitution’s standard of
“ high crimes and
misdemeanors,” and several of
them apply directly to Obama.
For example, the resolution lists
“failing to take care that the laws
be faithfully executed through
signing statements or systematic
policies of non-enforcement”
and “substituting executive
agreements for treaties” as two
of eleven potential high crimes
and misdemeanors the House
would be declaring
“impeachable,” according to
Breitbart.It further adds that the use of
military force without
congressional authorization, the
use of funds in defiance of
congressional appropriations,
and the defiance of
congressional subpoenas during
oversight investigations are all
impeachable offenses.
Sound familiar?
Obama’s refusal to enforce
America’s immigration laws
, his threat of bypassing
Congress on Iran, his illegal war
in Libya, and his consistent
defiance of congressional
investigations
into executive branch scandals
like the IRS, Fast and Furious, and
Benghazi all fit squarely within
Yoho’s 11 criteria for a “high
crime.”
Yoho said that the most
frequently recurring argument
against impeachment by experts
was that Obama’s actions are
similar to actions of previous
presidents. This, he says, is why
the resolution is a necessary
first step to impeachment. Once
Congress has defined its criteria
for “impeachable” offenses, the
“Bush did it, too” argument is
immediately destroyed.
This resolution was crafted with
the assistance of legal experts
like Fox News’ Judge Andrew
Napolitano and civil liberties
attorney Bruce Fein.
Yoho added that he expects the
resolution will cause a liberal
“firestorm” and will draw the ire
of the race baiters, who will
inevitably claim that the only
reason the GOP wants to
impeach Obama is because he’s
black.
But Yoho won’t back down,
declaring, “This is strictly about
the rule of law.”
He noted that executive amnesty
was the final straw in a litany of
abuses against the Constitution.
It was a “blatant, in-your-face
‘I’m above the law and I’m going
to do what I want. I’m a dictator,
I’m a king’” act, Yoho said.
This brave congressman should
be commended for his efforts to
fulfill his oath to defend the
Constitution. Now, his colleagues
who claim to love liberty and
represent the interests of
Americans need to step up to the
plate and give this effort their full
support.

This is only a move..... It's quite unrealistic.


Obama only has a year and half left. He will rather resign than to be impeached.


The worst that can happen is ruining the chances of the democratic party in the next election.


Impeachment will only happen in the dreamland.
