For the first four years, I believe, most of us felt that his record would condemn him and he would be one and done. Yet the media and the low information electorate ignored the complete incompetence and contempt of Mr. Obama. Now we have him for another term and he is upping the ante.
I agree that impeachment will bring nothing other than a Senate trial resulting in nothing more than grandstanding and possibly political gain for the president.
Richard Nixon was never impeached. His "crimes" were brought to light and he was pressured into resigning. This is what need to happen with the current resident of 1600. All who are speaking of preparing for the onslaught of the various agencies now stocked with billions of bullets, "self defense rifles" and armored vehicles need to be politically active. Writing their representatives is a start. Using, in a responsible and factual way, social media to keep these issues hot. A consistent call for the resignation of the president needs to come from the 50 million who did not vote for him. Last week tens of thousands marched on Madrid Spain calling for the president to resign. We need million to organize and march on Washington to do the same. Make it so the media cannot ignore us.
Many talk about a new civil war. We can avoid a hot civil war, if we fight it legally before the first shots are fired. If civil action cannot force his resignation, we need to make sure that the 2014 mid-term elections result in the control of the House and Senate is in the hands of representatives who will fulfill their oath to preserve and defend the Constitution. They need to be elected with a mandate to impeach and remove Mr. Obama from office. We need to make sure that those who are complicit with him are removed from office via the ballot box.
I swore an oath and there are now true domestic enemies. Many of you have done the same and others share that code of honor even though they may not have served. We must be diligent and zealous in this day. This current administration cannot destroy the Constitution on its own. It can only do so if the people allow them. Tyranny cannot stand against us, if we truly love the freedom we have been given by our Creator.
I don't know what the fix is. I would dearly love to see the current POTUS and his crony crew go bye-bye, sooner rather than later preferably. I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for that to happen. I have no doubt that you are sincere. There are many other folks, both on here and elsewhere, who are concerned and sincere. However, there is an unholy alliance between the masses who do not care as long as they get their EBT cards, their "Obamaphones" and whatever other handouts they did nothing to earn...and the current administration...and the left-wing political-media-entertainment complex who are involved in groupthink that will not allow them to say anything against their "daddy"/"lord and savior" and that political agenda. I don't want to stop fighting because I don't like being a quitter. But, at this point, I'm truly starting to believe that it will take something severe to wake up enough folks to make a difference.
If one does not laugh, one cries.
