Poll: 9 Out Of 10 Want Obama Impeached
Biggest response would link removal to eligibility dispute
An unscientific poll today revealed that nearly 9 in 10 respondents say it’s time now to move on impeachment proceedings for Barack Obama.
The WND poll revealed that of nearly 10,000 votes by this evening, only handsful picked negative responses to the question, “Is it a smart idea to pursue impeachment of Obama now?”
Other categories with “yes” answers totaled another 60-some percent. Included were “Yes” at nearly 15 percent, “Yes, it’s’ way past time,” at 13 percent, “Yes, or else America is done for” at 11 percent, “Yes, but only if concrete, beyond-a-reasonable-doubt evidence is assured” at 9 percent, “Yes, it will at least publicize to Americans his crimes before the election” at nearly 7 percent, “Yes, it’s a good idea to at least lay the groundwork for whatever his next offense is” at nearly 4 percent.
Several other yes votes got a fraction of a percent.
Those responding no congregated around the “No, the Senate would never convict him, so it’s a waste of time and energy answer.” It had 3 percent of the votes. “No, this is just politics by desperate Republicans” got 1 percent and “No, if they didn’t impeach Bush for unauthorized use of military, they sure shouldn’t Obama” also got 1 percent. Several other “No” votes also got a fraction of a percent.
The latest move in the impeachment sweepstakes came when Rep. Walter B. Jones Jr., R-N.C., introduced a resolution declaring that should the president use offensive military force without authorization of an act of Congress, “it is the sense of Congress”
that such an act would be “an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor.”
Also, in an exclusive WND column, former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo claims that Jones introduced his House Concurrent Resolution 107 in response to startling recent comments from Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta.
“This week it was Secretary of Defense Panetta’s declaration before the Senate Armed Services Committee that he and President Obama look not to the Congress for authorization to bomb Syria but to NATO and the United Nations,” Tancredo writes. “This led to Rep. Walter Jones, R-N.C., introducing an official resolution calling for impeachment should Obama take offensive action based on Panetta’s policy statement, because it would violate the Constitution.”
Read “The Case for Impeachment” and know why Obama has got to go before America is done for … and also put your opinion out in public, with a bumper sticker that calls for impeachment.
In response to questions from Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., over who determines the proper and legal use of the U.S. military, Panetta said, “Our goal would be to seek international permission and we would … come to the Congress and inform you and determine how best to approach this, whether or not we would want to get permission from the Congress – I think those are issues we would have to discuss as we decide what to do here.”
“Well, I’m almost breathless about that,” Sessions responded, “because what I heard you say is, ‘We’re going to seek international approval, and then we’ll come and tell the Congress what we might do, and we might seek congressional approval.’ And I just want to say to you that’s a big [deal].”
The full wording of H. Con. Res. 107, which is currently referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary, is as follows:
“Expressing the sense of Congress that the use of offensive military force by a president without prior and clear authorization of an act of Congress constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution.
Whereas the cornerstone of the Republic is honoring Congress’s exclusive power to declare war under article I, section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that, except in response to an actual or imminent attack against the territory of the United States, the use of offensive military force by a president without prior and clear authorization of an act of Congress violates Congress’s exclusive power to declare war under Article I, Section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution and therefore constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution.”
GOP legislation warns Obama of impeachment over military action
It is a pretty scary choice choice of men in total this upcoming election who want the controlling seat of America.
It’s not scary at all, Ron Paul is still in the race.
It’s the other three that make me nervous!
Barry Whathisname will not survive a second term. So if he is reappointed (POTUS is not elected … didn’t you get the memo?), he will get what he deserves. Meanwhile, the American people are already getting what they deserve, and the worst is still in store. What a short-sighted people.
Vote Ron Paul people. He’s the ONLY candidate talking about putting a STOP to the federal Reserve counterfeiting scheme.
Our currency system is based on DEBT because its a worthless pc. of paper. Since the Federal Reserve was established back in 1930′s our dollar has lost over 90% of it’s value. If we want our economy to improve the federal reserve must be eliminated. The federal reserve creates inflation by printing massive amounts of cash. WAKE UP PEOPLE.
Impeachment? No, removal and conviction is what is warranted.
