    The Supreme Court has no say in Impeachment proceedings. Those are strictly a House (Impeachment) and Senate (Conviction) matter.

    But then again, this President has shown that he believes himself to be above the law, and so do several of the Justices.

    Impeachment is actually quite flexible. All that need be shown is "conduct unbecoming a President of the United States". If one wants to list all the numerous offenses against the Constitution as evidence, I'll submit this list for your perusal:

    my response to things like this is "persistent squeezing"
    like the anaconda progressives -- they never let up. . yet they
    do pick their battles. . this might be a no-go. . I would, instead,
    push for pressure on our wimps in congress. . we hired them
    to stop BHO ... and so far, they've funded him and stood aside
    while he continues to march away with our freedoms in
    his trophy pouch. . Get Our Senators -- Be Noisy!!! -- j

    We get the leaders that we deserve. We tolerate a corrupt class of professional politicians to represent us at every level. Busy people, producing, managing, parenting ignore the idlers that legislate, regulate and educate our offspring into believing that the answer to bad government is more government. It becomes worse with each generation like a snowball going downhill. We know the futility of fighting it and await Atlas to shrug.

    The effort is entirely worth it, if for no other reason than to show others that we mean it.
    Unfortunately, like Slick Willie and that poor excuse for an Attorney General, Eric Holder, Barack Obama will simply ride off, untouched, into the sunset.

    I just got the pop up regarding behavior in our comments. I intend no personal attacks but only a strong dislike for the views and programs of the left. Whew-got that out of the way. First-even after receiving a huge mandate just 10 months ago I do not believe the majority of Republicans have the courage to bring about articles of impeachment-AND STAND THEIR GROUND. If they did they would do budget battle and shutdown "non-essentials". No, impeachment might make one feel good-but it's impractical. If successful it would be pointless (given the time frame) and could even give Biden some implied mantle of executive ability. Managing during a "constitutional crisis."
    I think the smart play is to recognize and neuter the biggest threat. Hillary. The Clintons have proven time after time-they can be caught red handed in questionable activities, defended with outright, known perjury and somehow escape justice. Looking ahead we really don't know how "Server-Gate" will play out. If history is any indication-nothing short of an all out-full court press will suffice.
    Again-the biggest threat. I believe most of the Republican 17 could probably beat Biden, Warren, Sanders. Any guess on how they would do against a Hillary that escapes the latest onslaught?
    With time being an issue-eliminate the BIGGEST THREAT."
    Then with some Conservative/Objectivist/Libertarian leadership in both houses and the WH-impeach BHO's legislation. Why waste time on BHO and end up with Hillary?

    It might be...there is always the odd rumor that this creature will seek a 3rd term like roosevelt did...if we see hiltery go down and joey's mental disease reemerge, the people rejecting bernie and hyawatha; then it might pay off. On the other hand...we can't his crap slide either.

    And the life-time protection for him and his
    family and future presidents. He changed the
    law from 10 years to life=time. Wonder what
    THAT will cost! He needs life=time protection?
    What is he afraid of?????????

    They'll spend mucho time and money and in the end get a few mentions on FOX. No, not worth it. In 2012-13 possibly, but he'll be out of office by the time it gets anywhere, if it gets anywhere.

    It might have been worth doing a few years ago, but
    I think that now, it would be a waste of time,money,
    and effort. It would be better to put that energy into
    defunding things,and stopping the Iran deal.

    Irrelevant. The GOP doesn't want to rock the boat. If you said 67 ethical Republicans you might be right, but the GOP doesn't want ethical Senators, they want those that can be manipulated. There is a 0% chance that the GOP will move toward smaller government and more individual liberty. Same as the democrats in that respect, and that is what matters.

    Unless they have a way to put 67 Republicans in the Senate first, any impeachment is a complete waste of time, just as is any bill to repeal ObamaCare.

    The way to see to it that Obama pays the price for what he has done is to ask next year's candidates for a pledge that they will prosecute him.

    #1 on his list of offenses has to be treason, for deliberately creating ISIS and strengthening Iran.

    It IS worth it, as a deterrent for the next bozos to come after him.

    I would hope so. The Constitution has requirements for citizenship, right? An supposedly he swore to abide by that, so I'd call it treasonous.

    I do agree with khalling, keeping the government in check, and limited (within some bounds) by the population is important.

    I worry that these antics may simply galvanize some of the middle against the right wing and take away from the next election.

    The thing that worries me about the next election is republicans taking both houses and the oval office. This is a recipe for big government in a different way. Boy do I hope for Rand or Walker.

    Even being the Idiot that he is, Biden seems way less dangerous than the trespasser in our White House!

    Why do you single out Republicans??? Do you think the socialilist/liberals will just roll over and not call Sharpton???? If they can't get Mrs. William Clinton for being loose and easy with state security secrets, they will never find the energy to go after the Emperor.

    A ineligible non-citizen taking the Oath was treason - death is the penalty. Impeachment in a government comprises of 98% criminal Regressives is an exercise in futillity.
