This is going to be a great year folks, Obama and his welfare democraps need to be sent a message and impeach them all..

South Dakota wants to impeach President Obama. They’ll have to get in line.

Among the many political imperatives identified by the South Dakota Republican Party for 2014 this past weekend was impeaching President Obama for violating "his oath of office in numerous ways." The reasons given for wanting to impeach the president were the newly proposed regulations on power plants from the Environmental Protection Agency and the captive swap that led to Bowe Bergdahl's return. Dr. Allen Unruh sponsored the resolution. He told the Argus Leader that he has a "thick book on impeachable offenses of the president."

WASHINGTON For many on the far political right, it’s high time to charge President Barack Obama with high crimes and misdemeanors.

The “I-word” – impeachment _ is creeping back into the political lexicon nearly 16 years after the House of Representatives impeached President Bill Clinton for lying under oath about his affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.

And Obama shouldn't joke "so sue me."

A lawsuit is a serious challenge to him overstepping his authority under the law, and if it wants to, the SCOTUS can curtail his authority and correct him on his interpretation of his powers.

It really is overreach, this leads to imperial presidency and dictatorship, it's really not good and the next Republican president would have all these powers too so it's not good.

If Congress won't legislate then we the American people just have to suffer and let the place fall apart and let enough pain happen for voters to vote for different kinds of reps.

(my concern is that SCOTUS will wind up codifying an imperial presidency as constitutional -- Dems also have a point that it would be easier if Republicans would just legislate and make compromises and address problems and then we wouldn't be in this boat)

Considering the time it takes to sue or impeach anyone it would be a waste of time to start such proceedings now. Better to just wait out the 931 days he has left and have the subpoenas and warrants ready on that day. The statute of limitations will not have run out on any of it in the mean time. If the 2014 elections go well Congress might pass some useful legislation with veto proof majorities in the meantime as the remaining Democrats in the Senate will see the coming sea change and not want to be found culpable in all the administrations fiasco's.

Well sure, because, you know:

Waste of time, at this point in our history Attila the Hun could be President and Congress would still sit on their hands doing not much of anything for their big fat cat salaries.

This is a lot of nonsense that will do nothing more than bring out the Democratic base in the midterm elections. So, no wonder Obama says; " bring it on."

The only reason John Boehner is bringing up the specter of a go no where law suit is to placate the fringe right and stall them from making a bone headed move to start an impeachment proceeding before the elections. The knuckle draggers in the Tea Party have already alienated the women's and minorities vote through the activist right leaning SCOTUS. Let's see if they can add to their pain.

The imperial presidency was started by Obama's predecessor, George W. How soon we forget the authoritarian grab over Congress orchestrated by Karl Rove and gang to implement the wars and the patriot act. In fact, Obama has made fewer executive orders then any President since Grover Cleveland.

I remember way back when a buddy of mine, a really nice guy, told me about some talk radio jock in Sacramento who was just hilarious. This was way back before Rush became a syndicated show, 1980-something. I tuned it in, this was in the Howard Stern "shock jock" days so I expected some funny, school-boys-nasty jokes but here was this guy ranting about things I'd never thought of as if they are the end of modern civilization, "feminazis" sticks in my brain,.

I was really surprised that my bud, who is such a nice, well like guy, could relate to all that bile. Rush, Beck, whoever, have this kind of sissy, passive aggressiveness that I just don't get but really struck a vein with white males of a certain age - my age actually, LOL. I couldn't figure out why white guys my age would feel so bullied. I was talking to my boss at the time and Rush came up. My boss was a second generation owner, a very fair and generous old-fashioned one-percenter. He said 'it's just entertainment, but he's right you know...'

I was kinda shocked Rush was able to connect with these guys but actually I was surprised there was so much hate - directed at just about everyone - there to tap into. I guess we are of the generation who let women get out of hand, not to mention letting the blacks forget their place; we even let our kids become spoiled by sparing the rod. Dittoheading Rush is like being a sycophant to a tough guy, it makes us feel tough. To be honest, I think he and all these "entertainers" kind of made this whole tantrum possible, acceptable, inevitable really.

After all, every other group has their victimhood, why not well-off white guys?

I know this isn't my fight, but this little problem with the IRS and the dog eating the home work, sorry my computer crashed, excuse to me, as an outsider has the same feel as tricky Dickey back in the seventies. The only thing different is that it is so amateurish it is laughable, but the only reason all these computers could crash so conveniently is that they contained information leading to much higher places. Once people start to crack, or some decent forensics are done on those so called crash discs then "duck and cover" will become all the rage again.

I can hear, Obama's defense already, "don't be ridiculous, I am more computer literate then, to suggest that all that information could be lost due one computer crash", and who could argue against it? This has to be one big time bomb for the Democrats.

Lore,

You maybe be right, but the "crime" in this one will not be what ever the IRS was accused of, it will be the amateurish cover up, or attempted cover up. With what has come out already, people will have to go, just for not keeping secure records. But as the story unfolds as to who directed it all and who is willing to fall on their swords for the greater cause, only time will tell.
The line, to paraphrase, "the dog ate my homework" is like a red flag to a bull for the Republicans. It says quite bluntly, yes there are things you would love to read in those emails, but you aren't going to get to see them, in a childish school yard way.
As I said before it will be the cover up they will be nailed for not the original charge of going after the Tea baggers.

It worked so well for Gingrich last time.

Unfolds to what? First, you have to prove that the records exist and hiding them was a deliberate coverup. So far, all you have is supposition with the likelihood of going nowhere as with all the other conspiracies. Then you have to tie this somehow to the upper levels of the administration. It's nothing more than a right wing circle jerk.

It's a complete diversion to keep the public's mind off the do nothing Congress. As if this hoopla represents the most important problem currently facing the country.

[Lore]

I apologize if I sound defensive. I meant to sound disgusted by the complete waste of time in these on going witch hunts conducted in the style and purpose of the Spanish Inquisition.

And yes, you'd think with all those people over at the IRS some loose end would show up somewhere.

Personally, my skin in this game as a progressive is not satisfied by either party in power. See my signiture.
