They’re finally turning on him:
…nearly half of Millennial’s surveyed – 47 percent – said they would support a recall of the president.
Most probably don’t know this, but there’s no such thing as a “recall” of a president. However, as I’ve noted previously, the Constitutional equivalent would be to elect enough Republicans to both houses next fall to impeach and remove him.
[Thursday-morning update]
Millennials jump ship over ObamaCare bait’n’switch.
Very well, but what high crimes and misdemeanors would he be impeached for? “Sucking” doesn’t count. The IRS thing? That’s gonna get less traction than Juanita Broaderrick got…
High crimes and misdemeanors are whatever the Congress decides they are.
How about illegally ignoring laws via presidential orders? Obama’s actions in that manner are provable. As bad as the IRS scandal, Fast & furious, Benghazi, etc, are, proving the President broke the law in those cases would be hard. Knowing he did, and proving he did, are sometimes very different things.
However, there’s no question that Obama is breaking the law via wholesale contradiction of law. His actions on immigration enforcement and Obamacare are just two.
What’s the charge? How about abuse of power, which is one of the most common Federal impeachment charges. (Quite a few judges have been impeached for that, and a president can be as well.)
However… it’s not mathematically possible for Republicans to win enough senate seats to convict, so they’d need D votes to do so. My guess; Obama could be caught on camera committing every single felony on the books and most of the D’s would not vote to convict.
What I can’t understand is why nothing can be done via the courts to stop the ignoring/rewriting of major laws by the Executive Branch. There’s a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth, but nothing else.
And the millennials will just turn around and vote for Hillary! in 2016, so, as a famous person once said, “at this point, what difference does it make?”
Has anyone in the Obama administration faced consequences for enabling the smuggling of a couple thousand firearms to Mexico without the knowledge of Mexico’s government or law enforcement, most of which ended up at crime scenes, including a couple hundred murders? I’d start with protecting the guilty from justice as my first selection of a “high crime”.
Obama, Hillary, and team stopped talking about violence in Mexico as a reason for increased gun control in America. Its almost as if fueling cartel violence was fueling political rhetoric, like the two policies from the same administration that cut across several agencies was coordinated.
Shorter Democrat:
“It’s not illegal if the President does it… as long as the President is a Democrat.”
More and more people are jumping off the Obama ship. Soon all that will be left are the Obama-bots who would rather sink with him than admit they were earth-shatteringly dense at election time.
Democrats still have sky high approval ratings for him and they make up a big chunk of the population.
Why we don’t have more controls on the federal government–like term limits and recalls–is beyond me. They couldn’t be much more out of control.
The controls would need to be on the federal employees themselves, not the elected officials. Perhaps something like what the US military has.
Looks like we have a real racism problem with the younger generation.
Obama is just a symptom. The voters who are turning against him now will happily vote for Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren in 2016. Surely they will make socialism work!
Below is the greatest chain e-mail I’ve ever seen. I spent a whole Saturday trying to track down the origin of this quote, but its author remains a mystery to me. It’s sometimes claimed that it came from an Eastern European newspaper, but if so, the original wasn’t in English.
That may well be the epitaph of the Obama administration. I only hope that it doesn’t turn out to be America’s epitaph as well.
The article says that those voters who want to recall him would still vote for him over Romney. Most likely a fair percentage of those voters who want to replace him want someone even more radical.
the mathematically literate headline would be “Millenials disapprove of Congress
more then President”.
And if they took a poll I expect they disapprove of Republicans more than congress.
“And if they took a poll I expect they disapprove of Republicans more than congress.”
One reason for that is because many republicans are not conservative and therefore are despised by both sides…..despised by the lo-fo’s who are waking up from their comas and are coming to realize how inept government is; despised by conservatives because they aren’t well, conservative.
And if they took a poll I expect they disapprove of Republicans more than congress.
Guys, keep your head in the sand.
Drudge linked this interesting Townhall breakdown of the drop in Obama’s approval numbers.
Hispanic approval has dropped 23 percent in the past year, and he’s now at only 52%. Among conservative Republicans his approval only dropped two points, from 7 percent to 5, which is getting almost down the conservative Republicans who have Alzheimers and think they’re approving of Reagan or Bush.
