O’Reilly thinks FR is a racist website, he has no cred here.

I wouldn’t hold my breath that the Pubbies would go after him if they had 300 House members and 60 in the Senate. They would have plenty of apple polishers to throw monkey wrenches into impeachment proceedings. Don’t rock the boat, don’tcha know.

A horrific power grab, to be sure. But a high crime or misdemeanor?

What constitutional power does a president have to grant citizenship?

To pardon an illegal is one thing.
To make said illegal a citizen is something else, entirely.

apples and oranges

AND if the Republicans by some fluke should win a majority in the House and/or Senate, they do not have the stomach for work as hard as impeachment.
Nope, I truly think we are stuck with 0bama until Jan.20, 2017 when the next in long line of Democratic “Presidents” is inaugurated.
I think we are being setup, not for a one man dictatorship but for a one party dictatorship.

Fox News' Bill O'Reilly is warning that if President Barack Obama ever bypasses Congress and uses his pardon power to make millions of illegal aliens citizens, he could face serious calls for his impeachment.

Oh nonsense. Honestly.

Who would make such a "call?" I mean other than a few old-fashioned Americans, and who gives a flying fig about what they think?

None.

But he can only be impeached for high crimes or misdemeanors. The grounds for impeachment are pretty narrow.

While granting pardons to all illegal aliens would be a disgrace, such an act is fully within the powers granted to the president under the U.S. Constitution.

Just ask him.

It’s on the grounds that Obama isn’t protecting the homeland, and then pardoned the illegals giving them citizenship immediately.

BOR needs to learn the difference between a loofa and a falafal before he showers or invites a co-worker to what he this is a good time and what the world thinks is the creepiest harrassment .

We believe you Andrea Mackris .

BOR said Matt Drudge should be killed .

BOR said FR was racist , hate filled and tried to sandbag FRs fine representative .

Let’s not accept the idea of an EO as the means for impeachment.

Why not? The executive has no grant of authority in this matter under the Constitution. To issue an amnesty by Executive Order would be a naked usurpation of powers and prerogatives the Constitution reserves to Congress.

Anyhoot, were the president to do so, this would be a good pretext for a long-overdue public discussion of what the Constitution says on questions of the separation and balance of powers. Obama badly needs to learn this lesson.

does anyone think 0bama cares? he knows if he does the amnesty, the dems will have a lock in 2010. who will impeach him again? not the republicans... they won’t have the votes.

besides, he is a one-term _resident. he knows if he runs again he’ll be forced to show the long form... and you only spend $3m to keep the info from going public because it would hurt you.

dems will win in 2010.

hillary will be running in 2012.

and the dems will have a lock on the power structure of the US for 40+ years.

Even if the GOP wins both the House and the Senate in 2010 (a huge if, I don't believe the GOP will win either body) impeachment will still mean nothing. The only thing that means anything is if 0bama is convicted by the Senate of an impeachable offense.

To pull off that trick, you're going to need at least 75 or more GOP senators because you know there will always be the worthless RINOs who will vote to acquit.

It is not happening in any reality. Bill O'Reilly needs to lay off the crackpipe.
