The gauntlet is thrown

This morning on Glenn Beck Radio, Glenn threw the gauntlet directly in Obama's face. He charged the president (notice the little 'p'?) was complicit in the expansion of ISIS from the beginning of his presidency. This from newly declassified DoD documents. If this is provable, there may be a bill of impeachment in the offing. His conduct has been reckless and detrimental to the safety and security of the United States and may be considered treasonous.

    I'm curious -- what sequence of events do you see that would put DC out of business but leave us a chance to do something right? The only way I see DC going under is if some other country conquers us.

    Glenn Beck is a conman and an enemy of liberty. He says some good things, but when he has a chance to lead towards liberty, he chooses the corporatists and war maniacs like Romney, Santorum, McCain and his retarded soccer mom running mate. He is a wolf leading sheep & a CIA trained propagandist.

    Question? Who has the authority to file impeachment charges?

    Answer:

    Article I § 2 of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power to impeach (make formal charges against) and Article I § 3 gives the Senate the sole power to try impeachments. Article II § 4 of the Constitution provides as follows:

    Impeachment is the same as A Grand Jury Indictment it is not a trial. As stated above the only legal entity to conduct such a hearing is the House of Representatives.

    The Actual Trial itself is conducted solely by the House of The Senate. They are the only entity that may and can determine a guilty or not guilty verdict.

    I would imagine the Congressionals themselves are so deeply involved they could do either action without implicating themselves.

    There is a rumored prophecy that BHO will walk away from the presidency before the end of his term. The Congress will not impeach him. Because they both parties will not be able to get enough votes between them for Articles of impeachment.

    Hey! Here's an idea! Let's impeach every member of Congress! For failing to honor their oaths, for failing to vote and act on all the powerful provisions given to them in the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Maybe we should give honors to obama (notice little 'o') for showing us the inevitable results on unbridled liberalism, socialism, and corruption?

    Have a link for you below and I haven't checked it out yet but I wanted to comment on your small 'p'. I have made it a practice for a while now of using a small first letter in some names, titles and faux concepts, etc. The reason is that I feel they do not deserve my respect nor the assumed respect of capitalization.
    Here is your link, just got it this afternoon.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all.

    Yes, definitely one of my favorite authors in my younger days. Maybe it's time to re-read and relive the adventure! Let's see... along with the above: "The Martian Chronicles", "S is for Space", "R is for Rocket", "The Illustrated Man", "Fahrenheit 451", and whatever this old brain can't remember. Amazon, here I come...

    Actually, the reality is that fear of "violence" will be the justification they will use to keep from impeaching him...right OR wrong.

    Nothing that we didn't know from the beginning. And even now, as a lame duck, he has put forth hundreds of new regulations, futher strait jacketing the country's ability to improve economically. Done, as usual, on a holiday weekend when people do not have their minds on Washington. Obama is a vampire sucking the life's blood from this country -- among other things, such as an intently insane foreign policy. Michigan had a little rhyme that I'll parody.
    Oh how I hate

    Glenn Beck is smart and is a good friend of liberty, in spite of his religious beliefs. Who insults him insults me.

    Unless we can get enough Democrats in the Senate to cross the line, impeachment would go nowhere. But once we have a Republican administration, Obama can and must be prosecuted and sent to prison. Let's start demanding that Republican primary candidates commit to do this.

    Yeah...if it's stupidity, it would really be shocking that he'd be that stupid. I just can't swallow that. Then...we have the alternative.

    I used to listen to Beck much more often than I do now. Beck usually has information and insight that are uncommon to find elsewhere. Although I disagree with some, his insight does have value.

    I listen to Beck and concur with jb.

    My questions is, would it have made any difference if the story got out sooner? Seems that this administration doesn't care. They just call it a lie, the media backs them up and they proceed with their plan.

    No surprise. Last night at dinner my step daughter (freshman in high school) stated she was scared that in a few years her generation was going to be voting. At least she seems to get it but doesn't sound like many do.

    According to "man on the street" videos, many supposedly educated Americans don't know what the 3 branches of government are, or who the VP is. I heard one idiot replying yesterday that Thanksgiving was about the birth of Christ. .

    "A Tranny"....Pretty funny! Judging by her appearance the First lady does appear a bit "Butch" so apparently that might be what the Bamster likes.

    I don't follow Beck, so I don't know what he has or hasn't said about Libya and Syra. I was responding to the post that makes it sound like a revelation that the US and Obama have been supporting ISIS. That story has been known and publicized for some time, and if Beck was on board prior to this, good. The more the real story gets out the better. It may still not be to late to stop the US from doing something really stupid, although like dhhalling above, I have my doubts.
