If there were any members of the GOP in congress who loved their country more than their jobs, this would have already been done.

If any of them had started impeachment hearings we would already have been given the opportunity to expose this tyrant live on C-SPAN.

Then candidates for the senate could run on the promise to follow through.

This is completely unrealistic.

It takes a 2/3 vote in the Senate trial to remove an impeached president from office. Realistically it will never happen. Even if the GOP takes control of the Senate in 2014, there’s no way that they will have anywhere near a 2/3 majority.

should they take over the senate...

A 2/3 vote is needed to convict an impeached president. Ain't gonna happen. Even if it could be proved that Obama is a general in the Iranian army, ain't gonna happen.

Not as long as their are weak-replacement-kneed RINOsaurs like Juan "El Guapo" McCain" and Orrin "What The Hell Is An Orrin" Hatch in The Senate.

Is Orrin Hatch still in The Senate?

We need to put term limits on Senators. 100 years is enough.

Rand Simberg who does not seem to know about a 2/3rd Senate vote required to impeach Zero should stick wiht aerospace projects.

How about a tens of millions of people signing one of those White House petitions, this one demanding Obama resign?

Take it the bank, the USA will never impeach it’s first black president. Although one wishes it would.

Rand Simberg, who usually writes about aerospace subjects

When he's not playing second base for the Cubs or managing the Phillies.

Even if the GOP captures the Senate with a 2/3 majority, Obama wouldn’t be impeached regardless of what he does to sabotage the country. I am convinced that if Obama were to declare himself dictator the GOP would do little more than whimper while the Democrats and media would be praising Obama for his boldness. Let us pray that in 2016 Obama relinquishes the White House without a coupe.
