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. |

Useless news from a stupid conservative website!!! Attempt that rubbish make hillary Clinton president and handover congress back to Democrats. Bush who sent thousands of u.s troops to die on a lie in iraq and left office with a 32% was not impeached, it's the guy that's cleaning up the mess that you're targeting.. |
