The true beauty of them publishing the devious, demagogue, hate spewing, Dimocrats as they continue to become more shrill in their denouncement of impeachable offenses committed by Skippy the First is that they may well make the case for impeachment in the press before the idea catches on with the timid GOPe.
The federal government is constitutionally gridlocked at this time because Congress is divided. (Obama’s constitutionally indefensible executive orders are a different issue.)
For example, citizens understandably want Obama impeached out of office. The problem is that a split Congress cannot impeach Obama out of office at this time. This is because only the Senate has the constitutional authority to remove someone from office should the House of Representatives impeach someone. And Reid, who also needs to be impeached imo, will not allow the Senate to remove Obama from office.
Again, a lot of so-called House chaos is a actually consequence of Congress being divided imo.
As a side note to the federal government being gridlocked, please consider the following. Given the limited powers that the Founding States had delegated to Congress, gridlock is arguably the effect as to how the Founders wanted the federal government to normally operate. In other words, the Founder intended for citizens to work with their local and state government representatives, not federal lawmakers, to resolve domestic problems.
In fact, note that just about the only peacetime concern that citizens would contact their federal lawmakers about is the US Mail Service evidenced by the Constitution’s Clause 7 of Section 8 of Article I. Otherwise, the states have never delegated to Congress, expressly via the Constitution, the specific powers to establish most of the federal services that many citizens are depending on today.

Not for long!
And he deserves ridicule, and I'm darn willing to give it.
Where is The Program, The Plan, The Leaders we need to get the Republic into recovery? This is Depression. It is made worse by the fact that the GOP is enabling increasingly despotic rule from the WH.
OK, Cruz. OK Gowdy. But exactly what is the Program, The PLan; how are we going to do this?
Much of this would have been laundered through Acorn Affiliates back to the DNC.
My point was that I think this is coordinated between Cruz and Boehner. Now is not the time for impeachment, because we simply couldn’t do it and we won’t be able to do it until we control the Senate. Which, because of the dysfunctionality of the GOP, may not even happen.
‘The chaff is being separated from the wheat’, because the Winds of Washington are on now on Cruz Control - - - .
Make us proud Ted Cruz, Jeff Sessions and Mike Lee, make us proud to be Americans, again.
I think we need to keep saying No to impeachment if only to throw the leftist media off, although we shouldent fail to point out why Obama legally should be impeached for his crimes.
If we win both houses in a sufficient majority then we can talk about actual impeachment. I have no doubt Obama will carry out an even more illegal act that can be used to spear head the movement when we have time.
If the Ministry of Information saw Bonehead pick his teeth after lunch they would report “He’s moving toward impeachment.”
Boehner’s most significant accomplishment in Washington, D. C. has been to block a good capable man from holding the position of Speaker of the House.
Has anyone ever heard the RNC or someone thought of as a part of the GOPe leadership, criticizing Boehner?
Obama has been able to do much of what he has done, because there is no opposition to him. The Senate is in Democrat hands, and the House is in the hands of a man who has no leadership skills, no vision, and no visible character.
