You need to wait until we have back the house.
Do you really think that inaction by citizens (we already know about politicians) will preserve the nation long enough?
Before Barak's term is up this country will no longer be free unless WE take action.

Senators can be impeached as can all govt officials. And it just takes a majority of the “House of Representatives” PRESENT for the vote to do so. Clinton was Impeached!

It just takes 2/3 vote of the Senators PRESENT to remove from office! It’s called a trial when it gets to the Senate. Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson were the only 2 Presidents to be Impeached by the House. They had trails in the Senate.

Johnson was one vote short of being “removed from office” in the Senate. Clinton was between 9 to 15 (?) votes from being removed from office in the Senate, so it was not close.

A lot of freepers get this mixed up.

We need the House!!
