The Tsarina wouldn’t get rid of Rasputin, either, though everyone else hated him and the Russian people loathed and mistrusted him.

Aristocrats had to kill him, and boy howdy, was he tough to kill!

Where is that contempt of Congress charge?

And new charges for perjury on the AP and Rosen matter?

Trey Gowdy step up.

Obama: holding onto Holder somehow reminded me of 39 and Holding, courtesy of Jerry Lee Lewis. Obama and Holder are both scoundrels. We will not be rid of one until we are rid of the other. Three and a half years to go.

On a lighter note, if Anthony Weiner were the AG, Neo’s headline to this post would have been sort of amusing.
I wish this guy would get out of the race because I cant stop with these stupid jokes.

Holder is the general in charge of the race war.

I see. And for that matter, if we had a conservative Congress, the dems never would have nominated Obama because the electorate would never have voted for him. I do agree, that there is no chance whatsoever of Obama being impeached.

Geoffrey Britain,

My point, perhaps not clearly stated, was not about the willingness, eagerness or desire of any congress to impeach, but about the reality of it happening under any circumstance. I don’t think it is a possibility even in one’s wildest dreams and I believe that Obama knows that which is why he performs as he does–no consequences, no repurcussions = no limitations.

As for shame, for the record, I didn’t vote for this clown either, but for the first time in my life, I am ashamed for my country.

I think a conservative Congress would be eager to impeach Obama but I don’t think Obama would let it get that far, which is why I think he’d sacrifice Holder to save his own skin. It’s true that, under certain conditions, being black amounts to a ‘get out of jail free card’ and impeaching Obama because he’s black, arguably gives him the most immunity. Hey, maybe we could impeach just Obama’s white half? 😉

Ashamed of, no. Disgusted with, yes. I did not vote for this administration. I am ashamed of and appalled by the many Americans who are blindly throwing away our inheritance of liberty for the 30 pieces of entitlement silver they receive in exchange.

They are both unknowing victims of and culpable in the tyranny that is coming.

Geoffrey Britain,

Although a theoretical point, I do not believe that even a conservative congress would have the brass to impeach Obama. For better or worse, Obama projects an endearing persona which is constantly burnished by the media. Regardless of one’s sympathies, it is simply difficult, nigh impossible, to swim against that tide.

It’s a good example of the aphorism that “In theory, there’s no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.” In theory, even a dyed-in-the-wool liberal can admit that there are minorities who are incompetent or jerks, but to actually call a minority incompetent makes it clear, prima facie, that one is saying that only because the target is a minority.

Quite simply, Obama can do no wrong in their eyes because he’s black; Trayvon Martin was the victim because he, too was a minority; so, too the Duke University stripper. Damn, these white opressors (Zimmerman?) keep busy, don’t they?
