Obama Will Be Impeached

No white man ever had to show his birth certificate.
.
Jonathan Chait, of The New Republic, writes, "But if Obama wins a second term, the House will vote to impeach him before he leaves office."
.
I disagree with Mr. Chait on only one issue: If Republicans control the House, which looks like they will, they will not wait until a possible second term. The Republicans believe he will be defeated in '12, and they will resort to dirty tricks, like Nixon did. Not one Republican has denounced the Birthers. Those who have in the past, were defeated: Mike Castle and John McCain.
.
Republicans are winking at the Birthers, knowing they help in the long run.
.
Sarah Palin: "...I think the public rightfully is still making it an issue...I think it’s a fair question..."
.
Haley Barbour: "This is a president that we know less about than any other president in history." Does Barbour think the president is a natural-born citizen? "As far as I know."
.
Conservapedia.com: Barack Hussein Obama II (aka Barry Soetoro), said to have born in Honolulu August 4, 1961. Obama reportedly was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to Barack Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham in 1961, however claims have been made he may have been born in Kenya.
.
If Republicans cannot get any traction with Joe Sestak, they'll find something else: "the bribery statute cited by Congressman Issa is, for reasons explained in my previous post, difficult to envision applying to this situation." The right wing crank site Canada Free Press, has a list of 50 impeachable offenses, all of it regurgitated drivel. GOP Representative Darrell Issa will find something from that list.
.
Here's Tom Tancredo, who pines for literacy tests: "Yes, Mr. Obama is a more serious threat to America than al Qaeda. We know that Osama bin Laden and followers want to kill us, but at least they are an outside force against whom we can offer our best defense. But when a dedicated enemy of the Constitution is working from the inside, we face a far more dangerous threat. Mr. Obama can accomplish with the stroke of his pen what bin Laden cannot accomplish with bombs and insurgents."
.
Seriously.
