Gohmert pushes impeachment: Obama ‘getting close to a high crime and misdemeanor’
Source: Raw Story
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) on Tuesday amped his recent impeachment rhetoric by claiming that President Barack Obama was getting close to a high crime and misdemeanor.
Fox News host Alisyn Camerota pointed out to Gohmert that after two weeks of a government shutdown, Republicans were basically guaranteed to lose on their core goal of repealing, defunding or delaying the presidents health care reform law.
A majority in the House should be sign to the Senate that we need to negotiate, Gohmert opined. We have sent over compromise after compromise after compromise with ourselves. Our own leadership proposed yet another compromise and [Senate Majority Leader] Harry Reid said all of the sudden, he thinks thats a slap at bipartisanship.
He wouldnt know bipartisanship if it came up and slapped him and said, were bipartisan, he added. So, I dont need to hear any crap from Harry Reid about bipartisanship. He doesnt know bipartisanship, nor does the president.

His being black just makes for easy fodder for race baiting.
Bill Clinton was not black and they accused him of being a drug dealer, murderer and ended up bringing up articles of impeachment.
His major crime is being a democrat, his being black is, for them, a fortunate thing making it easier and more convenient to slander him.

(42,282 posts)And remember, Clinton was called 'the first black president' because he understood more than just white culture (yes, it was a dumb title, but also explains a certain mindset).
And if Obama had realized what the Republicans have become, he wouldn't have trusted them from Day One and wouldn't have played Frog.

(14,564 posts)he campaigned and was elected based on his saying he was going to be the grownup and work with everyone.
it isn't his fault republicans are complete jackasses.
But, he had to try.

Do you have to be an asshole just to live there and vote - or did they put something in the water in the past two decades?
It's hard to believe the place was once capable of electing folks like this:

Yes, there are home grown republicans but not republicans are from Texas.
Lots of jobs in Texas so people moved here.

(70,508 posts)The A.C.A. is a law not a bill. The House and Senate negotiate all the time about
bills but once they have become a law that is not the time to have negotiations
but if you don't like a law and you want it overturned then you can:
1) Hold an election and gather enough support to have the law overturned
by democratic methods.
b) Take the law in front of the Federal Judiciary System and have the law
declared un-Constitutional.
*****
Bottom line the House republicans are trying to hold a coup to change the
outcome of the last elections and to be allowed to control the nation's rule
of law by threating to crash and burn the US and the world's economy.

(24,324 posts)the whole issue of these crazies having gotten so close to ultimate power, having the power to do even what they have done so far, the end timesers, "the gov is coming for our guns' nuts, the morans, and most dangerous of all, the people running them...it does not bode well in general.
My European friends think we have lost our mind. A good friend and I were talking yesterday morning and even with the issues in The Netherlands, he called to ask me what the fuck is going on in this insane asylum. He and everyone he knows can NOT UNDERSTAND, for example, how people would not want good health insurance.. and on and on..

(6,241 posts)and I was the Republicans, I'd just let it go through. I'd let it do the damage I knew it was going to do and let the President look bad. It's his baby. He can own it, then they can swoop in and save the day by repealing. Nothing about the law cannot be undone if it goes through.
So these people are either really bad at strategy, or they know that people are really going to like it and they don't want to give it a chance.

(8,699 posts)"What crime?"...name it. Give it life. If the President committed a crime that rises to that need than say what that crime is or is not. They throw around this bullshit like they are talking about a traffic ticket. If you have evidence of a crime than make it happin captain...you have a duty to act on that evidence. What a worthless toolbox.

Congress owns the purse strings. Therefore, and to wit;
Congress is liable for any violation of the constitution as far as the 14th goes..
Furthermore, and I say this with the utmost respect;
