I don't see how we could impeach without forever being saddled with the racist label.

Our only hope is a return to sanity in the 2012 election but with a war chest like 0-Nada's ($1B) it will be tough sledding.

Fortunately, I'll just bet there are several FReepers with armored toboggans.

By default I am a racist, what more can they call me? The word and the accusation has lost all credibility because of their over use of the term and achrge to anyone who disagrees with them.

When someone calls me a racist, I laugh at them and point out how the word mean nothing any longer. So why worry about them calling us racist if we impeach him?

“I don’t see how we could impeach without forever being saddled with the racist label.”

It was the implicit, sometimes explicit, label for anyone not supporting him in 2008; it will be both implicit and explicitly applied to anyone not wanting him reelected in 2012, as it’s applied liberally now to anyone who questions assertions of his ‘greatness’. Since it’s going to be the label no matter what, we might as well do what’s right, right now. His combination of incompetence and malevolence certainly recommends this, and it’s the option for exactly this kind of situation, a counterpart to legislative recall. We should make full use of it, and we should do it now. What are people here going to be saying about it should there not be regime change in 2012?

Sanity around an election?
