Mark Levin explains why Obama should be impeached if he acts unilaterally to raise the debt ceiling:
If Obama unilaterally acts – and I think there’s a fan dance going on here where his spokes-idiot Carney is out there saying ‘no, we’ve decided we’re not going to do this’ – if Obama, though, plays the role of Hamlet and in the end says ‘I have not choice, the Republicans are going to destroy our economy, our debt rating, all this that and the other, therefore I must unilaterally act,’ he should be impeached!
Because that means Congress’ core power – in addition to declaring war – Congress’ core power, that is control over spending and taxing, will have been seized by the president of the United States in one executive order. NO Congress would tolerate this from any president! I don’t care if the president was Abraham Lincoln. This Congress would not have tolerated it from Richard Nixon. No Congress can tolerate such a complete and brazen frontal assault on its enumerated power. No Congress! No twisting of the language in the 14th amendment or any way else. Because we will cease to be a federal government of three coequal branches.
There’s more. Listen:

Obama should have been impeached a long time ago
The Won should have been impeached, removed from office, tried for treason, and hanged after his crack to Medvedev about “having more flexibility after the election”.
Instead, he was reelected.
If he wasn’t impeached after that, he never will be.
Should
Those who support him doing so should be removed from office for ceding the authority that the people elected them to wield.
As I put it on another occasion, he should have last been seen dropping through the trapdoor of a gallows.
President Obama has committed treason.
Surrendering sovereign U.S. war-making to foreign powers and international authorities by attacking Libya without consulting Congress, in violation of U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 8 and U.S. Code Title 50, r 33:1541-1548;
Right Longbow1969? Of course I’m right.
Levin is right, but I’m not so sure Obama wouldn’t want that fight.
I think Hussein would bet the public would fall on his side. He’d know he could never be convicted in the Senate. He has shown he is skilled enough (and with the media to help him) to kick the Republicans around, and they aren’t unified anyway. The public still loves them some Obama, and they don’t want to hear anything bad about him. As uneducated and pathetic as the American public is currently, he might win that political fight, be left with a completely defeated Republican party, and end up with unlimited power and nothing to stop him.
I doubt Obama will really do this because of how risky it would be, but I bet his administration think they’d have a good chance to come out on top.
those who voted for him are low info voters, not got a lot of brains, would rather watch their hero’s from Hollywood or American idol.
The media got him to where he is, and it;s a frigging disgrace.
These obama voters will go down in history as the dumbest voters in history and history will show how obama took the constitution and tried to rip it up.
1st , 2nd, 10th, and 14th all under attack as I type this
Quoted the previous poster...yours has a more dignified ring to
He should never have been elected
The 4th isn’t doing well, either.
agreed and I should have added that too.
Levin is on target and one of the few who has balls to call these socialists out.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH of this crap.
LOL ;)
We certainly disagree on that treason list of yours. However, I'm sure we do agree that if he tries to raise the debt limit unilaterally that he should be impeached.
What I wonder is whether Obama might want that fight because he thinks he can win. Heck, look at the stuff FDR got away with - and that was when the American public was made of somewhat better stuff.
I doubt Obama will do it though. In the end there will be an agreement to cut spending some time in the future. (which will then not happen).
1st
2nd
4th
10th
and 14th all under attack and the GOP is er , er , er wait where the hell are they?
Listening to Powell and Levin right now, Powell is a frigging ass who got where he was because of republicans and now shouts racism about republicans the same party which fought the KKK, Segregation, slavery party
