The link to the impeachment site has been disabled. They really do hold the power now.

Sorry about the delay in responding…Not to beat the proverbial dead horse, Basil, but while I’d be happy with either “impeached but not removed” or “impeached but not convicted,” I persist in my assertion that no “acquittal” was involved. No positive attribute attaches to a failure to convict following an impeachment – for example, theoretically, the House could keep repeatedly impeaching until the Senate got tired of saying, “No” (at least, most con-law types seem to think so – certainly it’s never been tried, and would probably be politically ill-advised, to say the least). Certainly the language in the Constitution only references “conviction” and “removal from office,” not “acquittal.”

Do you have a problem w/nuts??? Ron Paul is alright…he belives in guns, gold, and God….sounds ok to me….”You don’t have to be [nuts], but it certainly helps!”

[Obama believes in guns, gold, and God, too. Of course, he believes guns should be confiscated, gold should go to his mobbed-up friends, and that he is God.

Ron Paul, of course, has his good points. Then, again, Mussolini made the trains run on time. - B]

Really Basil, if O’vomits cast aside we still have to keep Biden? If the elections invalid and they both committed fraud why wouldn’t there be a do over. Seriously, the country didn’t vote on Biden he just came with “the one”, sort of like dehydration comes with diarrhea.

I really like that analogy, Biden is to O’vomit as diarrhea is to dehydration. Should be on the SAT/ACT , they like questions like that.

[Remember, you and I didn't vote for anyone for president. We cast ballots for electors. The electors voted for president in December. They cast one vote for president, and one vote for vice-president. If Obama would be declared ineligible for the presidency, it wouldn't impact the votes for Biden.

The real question is, would Obama's disqualification mean that the House of Representatives would select a president from the top three eligible persons that received votes, as laid out in the Constitution? If so, then they choose from McCain and .... well, McCain. If that happens, Biden will be considered Acting President from January 20 until McCain takes office. Then, Biden returns as vice-president.

Just a thought exercise. But we all need more exercise. - B]

If we don’t want to get screwed again in 2012 we need to start NOW on closing Republican primaries around the country. Think about it folks. In ’12 His Royal Highness will be running unopposed so what are all those Dems going to do during primary season? Yup, ensure we nominate a loser.

I’ve suspected for a while that the only reason Obama chose Biden was so that we couldn’t afford to impeach him. The veep is basically a suicide belt.

@#26 – Darth Cheney as Speaker of the House? I just got a thrill up my leg.

That, and The Fred as Senate Majority Leader would, I believe, make Liberal heads truly explode.

I have thought about the impeachment/succession issue as well. There are no good alternatives to Obama in the line of succession. However, I have come up with a workable solution. We impeach Obama. Biden becomes president. Now, at this point, he needs to appoint a new VP. Through some deft political manuvering, Joe is forced to appoint Sarah Palin. I mean, what’s she doing now anyway? Through the same manuvering, she is approved by the Senate. Then we impeach Biden! Problem solved.

Nope – we don’t have to wait until 2012. We only have to wait until 2010 and Pelosi will no longer Speaker. We can elect Darth Cheney back to the House, he’ll be the new Speaker, and, with a couple of his assassination squad members on each side, he can simply declare that Obambi and Biden should abdicate if they know what’s good for them. They’ll both be seen running away and wishing they had worn their brown pants within 30 seconds of his being sworn in. We can then round the rest of the liberals up and herd them into camps at our leisure.

Impeachment is not an option personally I want Obama to keep doing exactly what he is doing so that mentally retarded moderates and flat out wacko liberals get to enjoy the next 3 years every bit of it.

With enough pain you only need 11% converts to ultra conservatism and who knows?

You might just get a Prez and Congress that would support dinosaurs with rocket launchers and maybe giant robots with dinosaur brains and then you could have a Deathmatch (in Tokoyo of course)

No offense to the Japanese I like ‘em but it’s sorta tradition.

Yeah, I would think that if the top of their ticket is found to be a non-citizen and therefore ineligible to hold to the office of POTUS, that their whole administration is ineligible by default and gets thrown out.

So what we need to do is keep Obama so busy with FOIA requests for the birth certificate that he doesn’t have time to do anything else. What was good for Palin is good for Obama after all.

Other than that, especially with ACORN’s election fraud in 2010 and 2012 that YOU KNOW they’re going to do again, we’re looking at armed Civil War v.2.0 in order to get the commie b*st*rds out of DC.

The thing about impeachment is the process. While it was going on the government would have a hard time driving us deeper into socialism and destruction of our economy and sovereignty. So keep impeaching whoever is in place until the government is completely shut down and nothing gets done. The reason the economy did so well during Clinton was the republicans in congress essentially shut down the process of passing new government controls while fighting the Clinton Communist machine.

2010, hopefully, the people of the United States will turn out the House Democrats as a Majority. Then it will be up to the Republicans to repudiate O-bah-muhh’s Agenda. Republicans would have 2 years to show they’ve got testicular fortitude(or ovarian tenacity), or the country is DOOMED.

Well it was either Lemmings or A Childs’ Garden Of Grass (not an NL production). Definitely not a Cheech & Chong album. But it was on an album and they were winding their way from Nixon (naturally) down through the administration and I think they were introducing the head of Agriculture.
“People! We are running out of food! So remember…..the man sitting next to you…….is your dinner!”
Actually Godley & Cremes’ triple LP “Consequences” had an excellent parody of Woodstock via their song “The Flood”.

Impeachment is definitely not and option. The lefty wacko bench is deeper than the ’27 Yankees batting order. Talk about a murderer’s row!

I don’t remember a bit like this on the Lemmings album. The Woodchuck Festival was dedicated to “Peace, Love, and Death”. Most memorable parody song: Joan Baez rendition of “Pull that Trigger N—–”.

So . . . what is the line of succession at IMAO?

1. SarahK
2. FrankJ
3. Rocket launching dinosaur
4. The moon (pre-nuke)
5. Angry monkey with mind control thing attached to his head
6. Basil
7. Harvey
8. Evil Scary eyeball eating poo flinging monkey
9. Bambi killing grandma
10.Cadet (Un)Happy
11.MarkoMancuso (Shun!!!)
12.Zombie Helen Thomas

You’re right. Let’s hope nothing ever happens to SarahK. Things could get ugly.

So Basil why do you think the “smartest man ever” appointed the yahoos he did? Most communities wouldn’t hire these people to pick up dog doo doo. It’s called “Job Security”.

[Why do I think he made the appointments he did? What's the title of the post? - B]

Our only hope is to prove “the one” was not born a US Citizen. The election would be invalid and we’d have to have a do over. Right about now I think we’d get the White House both Houses of Congress and the Penn Ave. BurgerKing as well.

[Actually, the election is valid. If Obama was found ineligible for office, Biden would have been properly elected, and move up. There would be the whole thing about Executive Orders, and bills he signed, but SCOTUS would probably rule them valid, if Biden re-issued and re-signed. - B]

Now just hold on there. I think if you keep drilling down the chain of command, you eventually find Wink Martindale. That wouldn’t be so bad, would it?

[He would be an improvement. And I understand the sentiment. I was hoping that Bill Cullen could have replaced LBJ, but it was a pipe dream. - B]
