A presidential impeachment process could damage Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and satisfy the "grassroots" of the Republican Party, Dave Agema said.
The Republican National Committeeman from the Grand Rapids area wants the GOP at its winter meetings later this month to pass a resolution calling for the impeachment of President Obama.
"(The resolution) has no binding requirements in it," Agema said. "It's basically just requesting that our GOP leaders do what the grassroots have been yearning for and show a little backbone and stand up to the Obama Administration.
"We're a nation of laws and (Obama) has to abide by the law like everyone else. He has blurred that separation of power consistently. Are we doing it right by just letting them get away with this? Our grassroots is looking for leadership."
I imagine that impeaching Obama will hurt Hillary's chances of being elected about as much as the impeachment of her husband is hurting her chances.
Not one little bit.
In fact I would argue that the attempt, and let's face it there would only be a failed attempt, would in fact energize the Democratic base and turn them out in numbers that would ensure that Hillary wins by a landslide.
By the way this Agema guy is the same guy who said that homosexuality was a "filthy lifestyle" and that the gays want free healthcare "because they're dying between 30 and 44 years old."
So yes he is just brimming over with intelligence.
These knuckleheads! When will they ever learn?
ReplyDeleteThere are legitimate grounds for impeaching President Obama dating to the very earliest days of his Administration, to wit: the order to kill American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki the founder of AQAP. Sucks for them, they invested so much in the "Obama's weak on terrorism" narrative, huh?
ReplyDeleteHopefully they will try it. Michigan Democrats need to galvanize. Look at their slimy governor; he also needs to be impeached or recalled. Glad the DOJ is looking into his record of poisoning water in Flint.
ReplyDeleteGov. Snyder, our creepy carpet-bagging governor, just signed into law the latest GOP assault on voting in this country. No more straight party voting, more restrictions on absentee ballots, more restrictions on everything except donations by the rich to the GOP. I always wonder why Republicans don't want people to vote. It is a democracy, isn't it?

Yes, Beaglemom, I was steamed to hear that this morning.
DeleteThey claim they want voters to engage in the process by carefully selecting each candidate blah blah blah.
So who now is pushing the "nanny" state?
Nobody is forced to vote straight straight ticket. And if someone chooses to do so, how is that anyone else's business?
Of course it is all bs meant to discourage people who know how they want to vote and need to do so quickly so as to lose less pay while taking time off to vote (just one example).
Oh look some one else who has koo koo puffs for breakfast. What a loon.
ReplyDeleteNo binding requirements...
ReplyDeleteawwww the little chairman wants to stomp his feet and hold his breath because no one pays any attention to him.
Since impeachment is SOP for the GOP, I recommend the DNC start impeachment proceedings against the next republican president immediately. Let's have that ready to go day one.
ReplyDeleteIt really must suck to only know how to play tiddly winks while President Obama plays 3-D chess masterfully.
ReplyDeleteO/T but has to be read. Reading Cheers and Jeers at DK this morning and started laughing out loud. Be sure to read the last sentence of his post on the state insect of New Mexico.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, why don't they put their money where their mouths are and actual impeach him. Because they got nothing!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is really good idea, great way to stop Hilary, show how stupid they really are.
Grand Rapids-republican clown/teabagger/DeVos territory.
Please proceed, dribbling dipshit.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a little distraction from the GOP problem at hand -- the lead poisoning of an entire city, especially a group of children whose lives are forever altered. Call it the Snyder cluster, or the GOP cluster. Those smart-ALEC types, like this creep need to be run out of office. Tarring and feathering might mollify me.

Hey Agema, I'm on my first cup of coffee, and not ready to suffer fools. This homosexual is 61, fucked like a rabbit in his 20s, had a real good time, is with the same husband 40 years next month, and healthy enough still to get around unassisted. So why don't you cork whatever orifice you think your wisdom pushes out of.

The reek of gop desperation grows as the election year begins.
ReplyDeleteAnd how, exactly, will this stunt hurt or help Hillary? The crazies are losing sleep thinking of who can say the stupidest thing.
