Impeach the President?

Impeachable Offenses

Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution says, "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors." In his report, Independent Counsel, Starr accuses President Clinton of committing eleven acts for which he could be removed from office by impeachment. Are any of those acts "Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors?" Well, that's up to the members of the House of Representatives. According to Constitutional Lawyers, "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" are (1) real criminality -- breaking a law; (2) abuses of power; (3) "violation of public trust" as defined by Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers. In 1970, then Representative Gerald R. Ford defined impeachable offenses as "whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history." An excellent definition, Mr. Former President. In the past, Congress has issued Articles of Impeachment for acts in three general categories:

Exceeding the constitutional bounds of the powers of the office.

Behavior grossly incompatible with the proper function and purpose of the office.

Employing the power of the office for an improper purpose or for personal gain.

All three of the above offenses apply to Obama. His policies are definitely not aligned with the Constitution that he swore to uphold. All of his major agendas are leading us to financial ruin and Socialism. The House needs to consider impeachment even though the Liberal lap-dogs in the Senate will probably vote it down. This is a critical time in our government. We cannot tolerate more of this "Change" to Socialism.

Overwhelm the system

HEY CONGRESS! The American public doesn't give a damn which party you are in. Vote for what is BEST FOR THE PEOPLE! Stop playing politics with our future and do the job you were elected for. To protect the Constitution and do what is right. Screw the party politics! Most of you who are holding this country hostage will not be there next term anyway!

And as for "President" Obama, there is growing concern that his agenda is NOT in line with our Constitutional Republic. His policies and the Democrats who follow him like puppies are pushing us into socialism. Read this and you will see where "Change" is leading us! Overwhelm the system
