No, Seriously Y’all, It’s Like Having Little Kids In the House. You Can’t Even Go to the Bathroom For Three Minutes Without Them Tearing Up Your House.
Louie.
Yeah, Louie.
Louie says that if we default on the debt ceiling, that’s an impeachable offense. (Take a deep breath.) For President Obama.
That’s right. If congress doesn’t vote to raise the debt ceiling, then they can impeach President Obama for … I dunno, like they’ve ever needed a reason?
What is it with Republicans and the word impeach? Didn’t they learn anything from Bill Clinton? You can impeach ’em but you cannot cook and eat ’em. Hell, Bill Clinton was all over the stage at the last Democratic National Convention but Republicans were hiding George W Bush in an attic somewhere feeding him a pet goat or some damn thing.
Thanks to Kyle for the heads up and John for the snow globe.
Hey, Louie! Why don’t you just try to impeach our President. Then we will all march on Washington and boot your sorry butt out, along with all the other crazies trying by seditious conspiracy to collapse our government. Until then, please shut up!
1I second that, Gramiam. Except I really don’t want to go to Washington. I’m really tired of Cruz and the Tea Party. Read Paul Krugman’s article about what to do when your mean neighbors don’t understand the concept of getting along.
2Louie must be having he DT’s. That’s all I can figure out.
3rethuglicans didn’t learn any lessons from Vietnam or the Soviet Union’s Vietnam-Afghanistan. Neocons decided to re-fight the war over in Iraq and Afghanistan and lost two more wars. They don’t learn from past disasters and are safe bets to repeat as often as they can get away with.
4Has Screwy Louie read Section 8 of Article One?
Using an old Army term, Louie should be given a Section 8 and relieved.
He thinks that if President Obama does not violate our Constitution, he should be impeached?
What other points in the Constitution does he not understand?
5It is the offense of “Presidenting-While-Democratic” that is impeachable. The Repubs define that as treason.
Being black is just a high crime.
6There are only 435 people in the whole United States who can file Articles of Impeachment. He is one of them. What’s he waiting for?
7Palin is now joining Gohmert in the claim that President Obama is committing high crimes http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/palin-obama-is-flirting-with-impeachable-offenses
Former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin accused President Barack Obama on Monday of coming dangerously close to “impeachable offenses.”
In a post on her Facebook page, Palin wrote that Obama is trying to create a sense of fear over Thursday’s looming debt limit deadline. Obama warned Monday that the United States faces “a good chance of defaulting” unless Republicans in Congress “set aside some of their partisan concerns.”
“It’s also shameful to see him scaremongering the markets with his talk of default,” Palin wrote. “There is no way we can default if we follow the Constitution. The Fourteenth Amendment, Section 4, requires that we service our debt first. We currently collect more than enough tax revenue to service our debt if we do that first.”
8If I lived in TX, I would make sure I lived near you. Seriously, you are too damn funny. And you speak the truth. I would love to see the ceiling breached, then Obama using the 14th amendment to raise it. There would be screaming!
9@Kyle, I think we would be better off following the advice from my six month old kitten rather than anything screeched by the Tundra Turd.
10What is it about holes that wingnuts can’t seem to figure out?Must be the scenery never changes as they dig deeper and deeper. rethuglicans are in so deep now that by next election Dems should own every political office around the world.
11I promise I’ll read the post and the comments, but if that picture is John’s doing, I bow. A Louie Ghomert snowglobe! You can almost see the devil horns sticking out through the snow.
12That is very insulting to my worldwide collection of snow globes…
13I figured that the push into a default corner was to force ( my)
President into over riding the vote or stalemate by executive
Order and then try and impeach him for doing that.
We cannot go into default–it would trigger a worldwide depression and maybe a war with China–they would “just” be claiming what they own…
So for the good of us all executive order may be what happens.
I vote for Holder to start proceedings on sedition and traitors, starting with the signers of the Williamsburg Accord and any one who said on tape they wanted to shut our government down…enuf said.
@Marge Wood. I read Prof Krugman’s article today, too. His analogy was so incredibly on point and would have been hilarious if it wasn’t so close to the truth. I really love his articles, but today I wished I still read the papers in print rather than online so I could cut it out and put it in a scrapbook. It was that en pointe (as they say in Louisiana).
14Why aren’t people demanding that Boehner be impeached?
15Everyone knows the Rethugs have different values. It is OK to impeach a President while the Newtster is cheating on Mrs Gingrich #2 with the present Mrs Newtster #3.
Or getting in a park ranger’s face about the shutdown they caused.
