Impeach Obama "movement" is already underway

There are people that wanted to impeach Bush for no reason...what comes around goes around.

After 8 years of Bush bashing, why does it surprise some people that Obama might get bashed also.

No, no, they did have a reason. Whether it was valid or not is another matter.

I personally don't believe in "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" because eventually someone has to act like an adult, but even still that philosophy doesn't fit appropriately in this situation. We actually HAD Bush as a President for eight years and the people complaining, were complaining based on his actions as President.

Obama is not President yet.
Hasn't served a single day.

There is too much whining, race drama, and overreacting this early in the game.

All of you out there on the edge of your seat, tearing your hair out over this President-elect just do the following:



The election is over.

There is a Black president around the corner.

Relax.

Breath.

... and let the man make a mistake then pounce on it like fresh meat for starving wolves.

I know you won't let me down.

There is a Black president around the corner.

Was that adjective really necessary? Why not just say "new" ?

It's difficult for me to argue against your logic, because you named him Lord Obama. I don't consider to him to nearly as high regard as so many conservative Republicans. He was the better of two choices, which is why I wanted to vote Libertarian.

Any libertarian who believes Barack Obama was the lesser of two evils is not a libertarian by any definition I have ever known.

Libertarian Values
1. Smaller government, only essential government services provided
2. No government regulation on social issues
3. No government intervention on anything except national defense

I believe (1) and (3) were blown out of the water when Mr. Obama began appointing people who have served in past administrations and expanded government, and got completely taken off the table when he recommended yet another "stimulus" package of taxpayer money. On (2), while this has traditionally been a strong point for the Democrat party, Obama has said he will not support efforts to stop pointless regulation of social issues (he is not for removing government intervention on gay marriage, prostitution, or drug use).

And this is why I am terrified of voters. You know its bad when "libertarians" are voting for someone who is 100% against their own values.

Is it even Constitutional to impeach someone who hasn't taken office yet, based off of policies not yet implemented?

I think that's a valid question.

It's become blatantly clear that the back-up plan for Gore and the Democrats if they don't get a new election is the "impeachment" of George W. Bush before he is even inaugurated.

What goes around comes around. Its funny watching all the Obama supporters hysterically act like this is just so unusual and that they would never participate in such political games.

Is that true though? As I recall, Gore wasn't even adamant about a recount.

If the democrats really advocated this, they must have brought it up in Congress some where.

I think that that was said because that is the REAL issue here.
If the President elect were Blond with blue eyes we probably wouldn't be hearing any of this noise.
Historically the South has been very hard on minorities.

I thought that things had improved until I worked on a project in Baytown, TX.for Exxon.
We had some east indian guys on our development team and wanted to rent an apartment for the duration of the project only to find that housing is still very much segregated there.
I'll never forget the code word was " We got all kinds of people here..."
And needless to say , that apartment never materialized.

Also,the Indian guys weren't allowed in the meetings held in the office tower conference rooms. There was always some reason to exclude them. It dawned on us one day when the Exxon guys told the Indians to wait downstairs in the lobby.

The White Only signs are gone but the rules apparently haven't changed.

Looking at the source and content of these comments, I'm not really surprised at all.

Not sure about that. They were pretty hard on all democratic candidates in the past (all 2 of the recent ones).

Think about Clinton. That guy couldn't sit on both butt cheeks without getting harassed.

Since when has the Republican Party cared about the constitution?

I think that's a valid question as well

Ignorance is no excuse. Leave Obama to do his job, he hasn't even stepped into office yet and a handful of rejects want him out. I doubt any true credence will be given to this act.

I think what we're seeing is the Republicans furious because for the first time in over a decade... they have almost no power.

the people have spoken... and voted them out.

Isn't this what Bill got impeached for?

You're right...they screwed up enormously. But have people made the right choice...or better yet....was there even a choice to begin with? Whenever we have to choose between "Lesser Evils" is not a good thing. The parties seem to be one in the same to me anymore. Let's watch the splendor as they spend us into oblivion.

Oh the irony of it all....

Sorry to tell ya' but that list of 'articles' was pathetic and bogus.

countless thousands more were omitted from certain "black populated" communities.

countless thousands of military absentee ballots were thrown out then, and now, as well. Gee ... wonder why?

He was definately sour grapes. He conceeded. Then unconceeded. Then wanted it recounted. Then wanted a recount of the recount. Then complained about the Supreme Court. etc etc

ah geeze, there's always at least one who will try to claim 'racism'.
It's already been shown that there were a group of democrats who wanted to impeach Bush even before he took office. So were they all anti-white?


Obama can't be impeached until something is shown that he broke the law or that he stepped outside the powers of his office. At this point the only way to 'impeach' him would be to prove that he isn't a US citizen or that he's a duel citizen and that he lied about it. Otherwise - they'll just have to wait until he does something that he can be impeached for. At this point he's just a severely inexperienced tool that the Bildebergers are using for their own agenda.

Bush wasn't impeached, so I'll be really angry if Obama is impeached, especially so early! This is probably just a bunch of racists (guarantee at least some percent are racist!) and people that don't want to give him a chance. He hasn't even done anything yet! So there's not really any grounds for impeachment anyway.

I have noticed that the hard right tends to be sore losers and even worse winners... I recall their get over it taunts about the 2000 selection.

And those who comment that most Americans don't understand socialism I would agree and add that they probably rank with them.

Obama is a moderate... all my liberal friends understand... and I think that most of the people who voted for him understand this which is why he won... but for many on the right anything left of Pat Buchannan is a dangerous liberal... it would be funny if it weren't so damned pathetic.

I agree. The liberal attempts to make Obama into a moderate are pathetic. Shows just how desperate the party has become to get into power.

No need to attempt to utilize such blatant partisan propaganda: the man won. And hes the most liberal democratic nominee since Carter. Just the facts, don't be ashamed of them. You voted for them.

reply to post by LowLevelMason


You turn what I said on its head... Obama IS a moderate and any attempt to paint him as a liberal is little more than a desperate political ploy.

Take it from a dyed in the wool liberal... Obama is a moderate.

Actually, I'll have to side with him on this one... Obama is pretty liberal. Not that Liberal is bad, this is a time iwhen we need a liberal governmnet...

Colin powell is probably the last of the true moderates...
