Where Is the Red Line of Impeachment?
American Thinker ^ | February 15, 2014 | Cindy Simpson

In the business world, a diligent board of directors would have long ago fired CEO Obama.

Sometimes it takes only a year of less than expected earnings to result in the termination of a corporate CEO. A couple of underperforming years and a few reasons more, and a CEO would have his bags packed and stowed underneath his buck-stopping desk. A long list of problems -- especially one suggesting even a hint of fraud -- that fails to generate a satisfactory board response would stir shareholders and lenders to demand the resignation of not only the CEO and other key employees, but also its directors. For without remediation, the company's stock prices would tumble as shareholders divest and banks pull the plug.

Our government's CEO is Barack Obama, its board of directors is Congress, its workforce consists of a growing multitude of Big Government bureaucracies, and its bank is the unaccountable monopoly of the Federal Reserve. Anymore, hardly anyone with any power in that vast organization seems to represent the interests of We the People (the shareholders).

The Democrat-media complex can ridicule political opposition as "fringe" or "extremist," but the ominous ticking of the 17-trillion-dollar debt clock is becoming harder to ignore. The growing debt transforms our shares from an asset into a liability that gravely impacts our national security. Our future generations will no longer expect the reward of dividends in their pursuit of happiness. Instead, and not by choice, they inherit more than their fair share of risk -- the labor of digging out of this financial mess, the difficult task of restoring real freedom and liberty, and the rebuilding of our national status and defenses abroad.

Not only has the financial value of our shares turned upside-down, but the attached voting value has become diluted...

They are held to the black standard, which is a horse of a different color.

“When does the US become a Marxist dictatorship?”

Soon, comrade, soon.

What about the name, “Soviet States of America”

Pretty catchy, isn’t it?

IMHO

That line is way back there in January of 2008 with his first official lie, his oath of office.

The lawlessness of the Senate is no excuse for the House to fail to act in line with its responsibilities.

Not true. Its time for all Americans to be Americans. Why sjhould we submit to the divide and conquer meme of the Black Power Nationalist Redistribution Socialist Obama Movement.

The biggest fear they have is that we awaken and unite against them. The only thing stopping us is the GOP elite, who want things to be ‘the same’ when in fact they are not business as usual at all.

The GOP will never again achieve majority elective office as long as Boehner, McConnell and others remain passive players in the face of Obamas nationalist socialism.The future is with Cruz, Lee , and others, those whom the GOP seeks to destroy on behalf of Obama.Congress has power. Its time to use it agianst a criminal executive,or get out of town.

Dumb question. He could start exterminating people on live tv and the SRM would not question it. The rats would defend it. The GOPe would sit on their hands. Nothing would happen.

Indeed, impeachment should be a start to prosecute the way business goes on in DC at large. Further charges should follow.

It is a dangerous precedent to have people bragging about what they can get away with, the number of people they have fooled and made money of, or, worse, in the case of Mao the number ofnpeople they murdered.

Always is easier for a tyrant to murder his own first, then they murder entire countries.

Here’s what happened to the last dictator who started killing his own people.

“Our government’s CEO is Barack Obama”

Yep and its not a coincidence that he’s Black. Black kevlar to protect him from impeachment. If Barack Obama was white he never would have been elected to the US Senate much less the US Presidency.

While there is ample reason to impeach Obama it will not happen as the GOP still fears the same shellacking they took when they impeached Clinton for committing perjury. The Democrats will rally around Obama no matter what he has done and the media will continue to be in lockstep with White House talking points. Obama's supporters would also immediately play the race card denouncing the impeachment as racism.

There are only two ways we can be rid of Obama: when his term ends in 2016 and he leaves office or if he is forced out by a popular insurrection like Nixon. I fear Obama will not relinquish office voluntarily and will simply declare himself president for life. I doubt that the Democrats would oppose this, the MSM would applaud him for doing so and the GOP could do nothing but bluster. At that point it would take another revolution to free ourselves from this oppressor.

Start the process anyway. Clinton was impeached, and was worthwhile even though Senate didn’t convict.

Thing is, the Left has learned that formalities are irrelevant at best, and harmful to them at worst. He doesn’t need to change the military oath from defending Constitution to defending him, he just needs leadership thereof to be understood devoted to him. They’ve mastered the “one off” approach, where everything is veiled just enough to confuse their opponents into trying to explain what’s wrong to an uninterested populace while the Left plows forward to their goals. It’s very effective. You draw a line, they walk around it.

He’s black. You can’t impeach him.

Obama could kill puppies with a hammer at a daily press conferences, air videos of himself raping little boys, and start publicly attending satanic human sacrifices, and when it was all over, he’d still get every vote that he got in the last election, and the full support of the media.

Imagine leftist goons with the support of Obama shooting at a conservative rally and the DOJ arrests Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin.

This scenario just happened in Venezuela.

It could happen here.

Leftists only believe they ran away from an abusive home taking refuge with a pimp kingpin Obama. They do believe in God and are waging a jihad of belief in an antichrist. They think because I work for a corporation I worship my boss as they do theirs. They abandonned the the pastoral enforcement for city street struggle.

They do NOT believe in God and replace that belief for the antichrist, that is, projecting their love of a fascistoid on us.
