If the Tea Party morons try impeachment...

[MineralMan]

I don't think it's likely at all, and that it will be quashed by enough Republicans to keep it from getting off the ground. However, if it did happen, it would fail, of course, probably before ever making it out of the House. Still, such an effort would show the Tea Party House members for the abject morons that they are. I believe it would ensure a Democratic House in 2014, with very many of those who pushed for impeachment simply losing their seats, many of them in primary races. In that sense, it might just advance the cause of reason. However, I don't think any such thing will occur.

That is why it is unlikely to go beyond some morons screaming for impeachment. There are enough sensible Republican House members to stop such a thing in its tracks, I'm quite sure. The Clinton impeachment wasn't so long ago that people have forgotten.

1. What reasons are they giving for wanting impeachment?

The Benghazi nonsense?

[MineralMan]

4. Yeah, that's the current thing being floated.

I'm sure someone will hold House hearings on it.

[BlueToTheBone]

8. They already are holding Benghazi hearings.

That horrible Issa didn't leave the building this cycle.

2. If it was not for the democratic majority senate, I believe they would try it.

If I recall correctly, that is where the Clinton impeachment was derailed.

[MineralMan]

5. The morons might try it anyhow, on the theory that it will

give them more credibility. Fortunately, they have plenty of incredibility already.

[SickOfTheOnePct]

15. Kind of

The impeachment wasn't derailed - Clinton was impeached. But the Senate didn't convict him.

[geckosfeet]

16. Thanks for the clarification - the details are getting fuzzy

3. The newly Duped should read a book , stop getting their ques from

Rush Windbag, Blabba O'Reily and the rest of the bunch at Fox-it-up News .

[MineralMan]

6. A book? Read a book?

Perish the thought!

[butterfly77]

7. Darryl Issa...

needs to be impeached for wasting taxpapers dollars on nonsense. What is it that the republiCONS and the teabaggers always say.."We got to cut the spending"!

[HopeHoops]

9. The Gingrinch should know better than anyone that it's a bad strategy. Look what happened then!

[MineralMan]

10. Yah, it turned around an bit him right on the ass, didn't it?

[HopeHoops]

12. I'm not sure he felt it - that ass has gotten pretty large.

[MineralMan]

14. LOL!

[JaneyVee]

11. Yeah, Clinton was impeached & now enjoys a 70% approval rating. GOP Fail.

[mick063]

13. Right after a bad election loss?

This is political suicide for the Tea Party.

Do it knuckledraggers!

[bluestate10]

17. They can't be that fucking stupid. President Obama has not given them the remotest reason.

I agree with your assessment, if republicans in the House try impeachment, the effort will fail and destroy their party in two years. People that voted for republicans with some concerns will turn on them, giving democrats majorities in many districts.

[Bucky]

18. If they do, I hope they time it to occur in October 2014

We'll need the GOTV help.

[Dawson Leery]

19. That would result in a Democratic house in 2014.

Also, the Democratic Senate is not going to hear the bogus charges.
