Cesca: The Impeachment of President Obama

If the Republicans ever manage to retake Congress, they will absolutely try to impeach President Obama. And it'll be based upon a supremely ridiculous charge such as, say, the president refusing to nourish our crops with a sports drink instead of water.

Okay, so maybe the Idiocracy example is over-the-top, but if we follow the current trajectory of far-right attacks to their logical yet insane conclusion, it makes sense in a very eerie way. Have you seen the television commercials solemnly defending our right to poison our kids with "juice drinks and soda?" There you go.

That is why Pelosi took impeachment off the table, she rather would have control of congress than doing the right thing and impeaching Bush. The Repubs will do the same.

Democrtas suck, the left is angry at them, some people might even vote third party (Green, Socialist), so they are warming people not to do it, scaring them into the bondage of the two-party system. This is complete nonsense.

"But it functions as an effective Beck attack because he knows his audience isn't bright enough to distinguish "czars" from "communists."

I don't think this statement makes any sense. The communists were not ruled by czars; they fought against them. If the author had been equating an all powerful king to czar or even a dictator to czar, this might have made sense. Not that I really care one way or another, but I just thought it was homorous that the author incorrectly equated two terms in a statement where you they insulted the intelligence of others.

They're just going to defeat him 2012.. which is how these things should be decided .. impeaching Clinton was a big mistake.. the Repubs learned that..

Okay, I still don't get it. I think the people watching Glenn Beck are afraid that Obama is trying to socialize everything (communist). So, is the author trying to say that Glenn Beck's audience is stupid because they are calling Obama a communist when his czars are actually associated with an all powerful king or a dictator? Truly, I have no idea what the author is trying to say here. Or are they making a more general statement that Glenn Beck's audience has a hard time telling Russians apart?

Perhaps the previous sentence can help you:

100 House Republicans out of 177 have attached their names to a bill that was essentially invented as a television bit by Glenn Beck without any regard for the fact that "czar" is a nickname invented by the press, and that every president -- all of them! -- has employed policy and political advisers within their administrations.

He's calling Glenn Beck's audience stupid because:
1) They don't know that the 'title' 'czar' is not an actual government title
2) They use this fictitious government title as proof of non-existent communist/authoritarian tendencies

Like a lie based on a misconception, a straw man made of spaghetti.

There is hilarious video of a bunch of the Teabaggers with their panties in a bunch about "czars," who then change their tune dramatically when the interviews clues them in that the Original Messiah Ronald Reagan was the first to appoint a czar. (The "Drug Czar.") Teabaggers are douchebaggers.

The problem with witch hunts is that there are no witches. Laws were broken by the previous administration. Are we not a country of laws? Are laws not equally applied to everyone in this country? If they aren't then that would be 'banana republic' stuff. I think we are are past that point. We are the richest and best armed third-world country on earth. I think Eric Holder is an idealist who still believes all that 'shining city on a hill' rhetoric.

I would think that everyone knows that czar is not an official government title. As to your point number 2, the author clearly used czar and communist together showing that they have no clue as to the difference between the two. As such, I stand by my original comment that the author is rather funny as they are insulting another person's intelligence in the same sentence where they display their own stupidity.

At least be honest enough to say that you Believe laws were broken,.. because Holder has not said they were..

And.. Bush could easily have done the same thing with Clinton over the Rich pardon, that stunk to high heaven. A lot of righties were clamoring for an investigation.. but Bush wisely chose not to do so..

"shining hill"???? HOLDER IS TH GUY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RICH PARDON.. get over yourself.. geez

The only thing you were successful at was displaying your own stupidity. For future reference:

"...because he knows his audience isn't bright enough to distinguish "czars" from "communists.""

I have news for you the czars in Obama's white house are not advisers but control what they are assigned to. They are not cute little bunny rabbits but rabid leftwing lunatics with the same communitst ideology as Obama.

Too late to impeach Bush--but how about life in prison without parole? With his bisexuality--he'll be a big hit. Allowing an attack on the United Staes, and lying about his involvement, and forcing others to lie seems like a prison sentence would be justice for the thousands of deaths that followed. Of course, the Kool-aide drinkers and pants pissers will support him no matter what the evidence. Bush could confess, and they would still blame Obama.

What is happening politically that makes you think this will happen? Polls seem to say the opposite. Not saying you are right or wrong, but I just wonder if there is substance to this prognostication or just partisan zealousness at work here.

Consider the following two statements about Beck's audience.

1. They don't know czars from communists.

2. They don't know shit from shinola.

See the resemblance? I hope it helps clear up your confusion.

That's enough history.

According to the republicans:

Every FAILED neoconservative policy implemented from nixon thru reagan and bush 41 was Carter's fault, tho his 4 years was between 20 years of republicans.

Every FAILED neoconservative policy implemented from Contract ON Americans congress thru lilaWol/hallichainy was Clinton's fault.

Now, every neoconservative policy failures of the last 8 years are Obama's fault.

So, it figures that the republicans would spend the entire time reagan/bush41 was in office blaming Carter and would spend $70 million of taxpayer money attacking Clinton while he was in office.

And now, they will spend the entire Obama presidency attacking him.

THINK

GOP=Party over Country

The left also accused the administration of using illegal wiretaps, torture and other human rights violations. All true.

So the Obama administration has ended illegal wiretaps? This story from ABC shows President Obama would want to extend "illegal" wiretapping (and "torture") so if you are an Obama supporter who doesn't get up in arms about this, this would Validate the Bush admin. Patriot Act Provisions Get Obama Support

This guy is dripping with condescension, which really doesn't help the left try to build on their majority.

Even funnier is that the communists (or was it bolsheviks : ) ) overthrew the czars. Czars were monarchs, rather like, oh, kings.

But maybe someone on this thread already pointed that out. I just thought I'd toss my thoughts in despite my ignorance. You know, I'm like most bloggers in the world, as it turns out. : )

I hope he is not impeached for any reason. I want him to continue to push his socialist agenda (operative word: try) so that it will be a decade or two before the American public will even 'consider' voting in another Dem president.
