Yes, that’s true. This Obama has to be impeached.

Insane or for obama? You are just full of crap. The dims have gotten away with their treason because the republican party over the years, has compromised and adopted the leftist agenda willingly. Look to jeb bush's latest attack on the TEA Party. Sorry pal... the republicans own their share of our woes... they have been more than complicit and they should have either filed suit minutes after obama’s announcement or started impeachment proceedings against him. They have done nothing so far... polling is my guess as to why.

This election, being Obama is bad, but being the non-Obama won’t help Romney

President’s rival is like Illinois’ white-shoe Republicans, helping to spend state into debt

John Kass

June 24, 2012

President Barack Obama has had a terrible few weeks, and it could get worse.

Especially if the Supreme Court accepts the ancient premise in that old, forgotten document called the Constitution that the federal leviathan cannot force Americans to purchase a thing, let alone health care.

But I still believe that the guy from Chicago will win re-election in November, despite all the anguish around him, because the Republican candidate, Mitt Romney, isn’t exactly inspiring either.

Romney is no conservative alternative, he’s merely the un-Obama corporatist, eerily similar to the big-government Illinois Republicans who partnered with Democrats to spend the state into crippling debt, those white-shoe Republicans whom Obama dealt with and learned from during his brief political apprenticeship here. He knows the type.

So if the 2012 presidential race is on Obama’s ground, if it’s about government subsidies for business versus government subsidies for select demographic voting constituencies, and if all of us in America keep our hands extended, waiting for government plums, then Obama wins. It’s Chicago machine politics writ large.

But there are problems for the president. Centrist Democrats in the Clinton wing can’t help but peel away from him, perhaps looking for a safe landing, or maybe they’ve got eyes on a Hillary Clinton-Rahm Emanuel ticket in 2016.

Watching Obama squirm next to Russian strongman Vladimir Putin recently, Obama avoiding eye-contact as they met to discuss Russian ambition and the catastrophe in Syria, you couldn’t help but remember Mrs. Clinton’s campaign commercial about that 3 a.m. phone call.

Our American president must have learned about not making eye contact with strongmen during his days in Chicago dealing with the Democratic bosses. And the first thing I thought of was how a President Hillary Clinton would have sat with Putin, perched on the edge of her chair, staring dispassionately at the Russian leader as if she were a velociraptor.

And if she had a paring knife in her purse, she might have peeled him like an apple....
