Apparently the nut crackers over at the teabaggers secret lair are on to a new tactic. Like clockwork, it's time to start the American movement for the impeachment of President Obama.

Wow. Farright Town has its very own Village Idiot.

I had to go over halfway down the larg type text to find what they said were his actual crimes that they wanted to impeach him for.

He lied to the American people when he said we could keep our private insurance, knowing full well that his legislation would inevitably drive private insurers out of business.

Gerald Walpin, Inspector General of the Corporation For National and Community Service investigated Kevin Johnson, a big buddy of the president, for misuse of funds from an AmeriCorps grant. Whereupon Obama vindictively fired Walpin to cover for Johnson. A subsequent investigation vindicated Walpin’s judgment in the matter.

Barack Hussein Obama has overseen the effective takeover by government of banks, the largest insurance company (AIG), and General Motors (GM) and Chrysler... the bulk of the U.S. auto industry, thus depriving bondholders, shareholders, and others of their property.

Barack Hussein Obama is actively pursuing cap-and-trade legislation. Instead of taxing the very air we breathe, it would instead, in a manner of speaking, tax the air we exhale and give the government unprecedented control over the economy and American businesses.

Barack Hussein Obama is running up our debt at an alarming rate. In just 9 months since Obama assumed office, our National Debt has gone up by over a trillion dollars. To put that figure in perspective, it took George W. Bush 8 years to add 4.8 trillion to the National Debt.

And, to add insult to injury, we're printing money like it's going out of style. The effect will be hyper-inflation, a crippling of our economy and, quite possibly, personal hardship on a scale that has not been experienced since the Great Depression.

Barack Hussein Obama has appointed countless “Czars” to oversee everything from the closing of Guantanamo to the food we eat. These Czars don’t have to be approved by the Senate. The Czars have unprecedented power and report only to Obama. Members of both parties are disturbed by these extra-Constitutional excrescences.

Senator Robert Byrd said: “The accumulation of power by White House staff can threaten the Constitutional system of checks and balances.” Congressman Jack Kingston called the Czars a “parallel government.”

And finally, Obama has consistently refused to approve the release of his actual birth certificate, college transcripts and his medical records.

And these matters only scratch the surface.

No kidding... :lol:

They do seem to have missed one important point.

Impeachment is a process whereby the House of representative calls for impeachment, requiring a majority, and the Senate tries the case, requiring a supermajority to convict.

It's not something a citizen group can do anything about - although if they have enough members they can of course vote the scoundrel out.

Since they don't have a majority in Congress, Senate or the voting public there's nothing they could do -even if they had a case, which of course they don't. But what can you expect from the Birthers

I signed up as Banana Muffin. They don't seem fussy.

Interesting that these people are so far disconnected from reality. I guess fear really does push some people into a fantasy world.

Though really, it is a shame that the impeachment process is so political. It was working pretty well back in 1973, when Nixon resigned just ahead of his impeachment and certain conviction. The polarization that escalated to some weird sort of political Cold War in the 80's and 90's resulted in the pathetic spectacle of the Clinton impeachment. It culminated in the total failure to make any progress on impeaching Bush.

Now we have nutbars trying to impeach a man after 8 months in office ... pretty much for not being Republican.
