Impeach Obama Says Sister of Cole Sailor Killed in Terror Attacks
Friday, February 6, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 02/06/2009 2:25:14 PM PST by kristinn

The sister of Seaman James McDaniels, a sailor killed in the terror attack on the U.S.S. Cole wants President Barack Hussein Obama impeached over his decision to withdraw charges against the al Qaeda mastermind of the attack.

Diane McDaniels, the mother of the slain sailor, related her daughter's outrage over the President's decision during an interview on the Fox News Channel show Your World with Neil Cavuto this afternoon.

Ms. McDaniels also expressed her own regret for having voted for Obama last November. She declined an invitation to meet Obama with other Cole family and crew members and 9/11 families at the White House this afternoon.

Hopefully a video or transcript will be available soon. This was a stunning interview. Neil Cavuto was respectful and gave Ms. McDaniels room to express herself.

Ms. McDaniels conducted herself with dignity and was very direct in her criticisms of President Obama.

Obama will not be impeached. The Dems are in charge in both houses of congress. As they love to tell anyone who will listen, O and his Dems won. Get over it.

Elections have consequences. It didn't take much effort before the election to see what Obama was. Anyone who voted for him (or a 3rd party, or stayed home) while expecting anything different than what he has already done is either stupid or a fool. As for O, the worst is yet to come.

President Dinky is a diminutive man. He will always be standing on tip toe just to watch what real people are doing. He will never have the capacity to join them in what they are doing.

I would imagine their are millions feeling that way now too.

I don't. Not for one single, solitary minute do I believe that millions of O voters regret their choice.

If the crew of the USS Cole were given an option, I would bet none of them would meet with Obama at this point.

Poor kids never had a chance. Obama will destroy this country but the GOP can’t even vote together to block the Porkulus or ask him to show his BC.

From a Fox News article earlier today:

Diane McDaniels, whose son was killed in the Cole bombing, also declined an invitation to meet the president, saying she was too disillusioned with Obama for dropping the charges.

"My son was blown up along with 16 others. I buried body parts for three years," she told FOX News. "I'm still suffering and now he's withdrawing the charges?

"There's nothing he can say to make me feel better," she explained, adding that Obama is sending the wrong message to the American people. "He may be the president but he's wrong."

I understand her anguish.

But this should not be a surprise to her.
Obama clearly stated that he was going to shut Guantanamo down.
What did she think he meant by that?
Did she think he meant "...after I prosecute all the terrorists, even if it takes years"?

The reason this doofus socialist got elected is because when he said "Change", people like Ms. McDaniels didn't think what that could mean.
They just thought how nice it would be to vote for a clean, articulate mulatto.

Usefull (to Obama) idiots deserve what Obama is dishing out.
It is too bad millions of others will suffer because of the stupidity of people like this.

If that doesn’t sadly say it all.

Oui.

This is especially significant.

There were so many surprising endorsements of Marxist Obama during the general election (Ike's granddaughter comes to mind); and, I'm thinking that a lot of folks were fooled by the teleprompter and bullied by the media into voting for Obama.

When these folks come to, and find themselves marching in the fifth column, they will bolt in a big way back to rational political thinking.

I saw her, my heart went out to this woman, wonder how long before a lot of other of his voters realize their folly? Probably when they turn on the electic and there is no there-there because Bambi has it all turned off for global warming... he is a madman and all the people who’ve tried to get rich off the poor and downtrodden in this country are feeding at the trough.

Glenn Beck was supposed to have one of the family members that met with the President on this afternoon and the WH screwed it up so they couldn’t get them on.

“Ms. McDaniels also expressed her own regret for having voted for Obama last November.”

You were warned Ms. McDaniels. Votes matter, and as such, I don’t understand why you’re upset. He said he was going to do it, and now he’s done it, and you helped him do it.

I’m sorry for your loss, but you helped put him there, and the President hasn’t done anything illegal.

>>”The father of a fallen sailor and the Commander of the USS Cole will be on the Glenn Beck program in a little while. They met with Obama this afternoon and will be on to talk about it.”<<

In Beck’s own words tonight “they were escorted off the White House grounds” and were refused permission to come back in.

Didn’t happen. He passed outside WH gates while interview was to be inside (either on grounds of inside WH I couldn’t suss).

GB was saying w/ 5 minutes left in show they were trying to get him back inside as apparently agreed upon.

Didn’t happen.
