Who Hijacked Our Country

The GOP’s Newest Tic: “Impeach Obama, Impeach Obama, Impeach Obama…”

Not to be confused with Rudy Giuliani’s 9/11 Tourette’s Syndrome.

On her TV show last Friday night, Rachel Maddow said the GOP’s constant hiccupping of “Impeach Obama, Impeach Obama” is like an involuntary tic.  She also compared it to incontinence, like when somebody coughs or sneezes too hard and then, “oops, ahem, uhh, I need to be excused for a minute.”

And this has nothing to do with Benghazi or whatever the Republicans’ fake scandal du jour happens to be.  The Far Right has been having a mass bedwetting since the day Obama took office.  Rachel Maddow played back the audio of a phone call to Michael “Voice of the Inbreds” Savage from March 2009:

Caller:

“What they’re doing right now is destroying this country.  Everyone that I know of, at least, is very angry about it. We’re very upset. We want this guy out. We want him to be impeached.”

Michael Savage:

“What I don’t like is that this guy is doing this by executive order, one after the other and the American people are sitting like a bunch of shmucks watching a dictatorship emerge right before their eyes.  I think it is time to talk about impeachment. Somebody has to get this guy under control. He’s out of control. Thank you for the call.”

Rachel Maddow said:

“Republicans on the right love talking about impeaching President Obama even when they’re not sure exactly why.  It’s almost like an involuntary tic. They sneeze and a little ‘Impeach Obama!’ squeezes out without them meaning to.”

Last week's foulest burst of incontinence came out of James Inhofe, who shat his pants with:

“Of all the great cover-ups in history, we’re talking the Pentagon Papers, the Iran-Contra, Watergate and all the rest of them, this, I said back on November 28 on Fox, is going to go down as the most serious, most egregious cover-up in American history.  People need to know how serious this is. To me, this, people may be starting to use the ‘I-word’ before too long.  The ‘I-word’ is ‘impeach.’”

Well, you’ve gotta give James Inhofe credit for one thing:  He’s fully aware that his inbred constituents need to have every little word spelled out for them.

They just want to step up and say we are impeaching because he dares to do his presidenting while black. I mean we've got stuff going down for walking while black, driving while black etc, why not presidenting while black.

The half-wit wingnut segment of the population got the impeachment bug when Earl Warren, former Republican governor of California, was appointed chief justice of the Supreme Court by Republican President Dwight Eisenhower. The disease flourishes whenever we have a Democratic president.

I have a strong hunch Inhofe, a fairly typical Republican bully type senator, if scrutinized closely enough, would come closer to qualifying for impeachment than Obama ever would.

Not to mention William O Douglas and Bill Clinton. They make such a mockery of the Impeachment Process.

Jess: Presidenting While Black (PWB) -- clearly grounds for impeachment.

SW: I'm sure the impeachment bug goes back at least as far as Earl Warren. I agree Inhofe, and a ton of other GOP politicians, are highly qualified for impeachment.

Erik: Yup, can't forget William O. Douglas and Bill Clinton.

Randal: Yes, another well-known communist.

Lisa: Since you're so fascinated with these news stories, why don't you write about them at your own blog?

Anonymous 11:42 a.m.: Those days seem so idyllic compared to today.

Poor Lisa you guys, let's have a telethon for the terminally stupid among us and give her the money. Has to resort to dredging up 1 story from 2010 to make what point again? Oh yeah, the gazillion attacks on white people that happen everyday because they are so very very oppressed. Gimme a fuckin break.

If any of you guys can find a tiny violin playing the saddest music ever it would help with the telethon. I would look for it, but sadly, I cannot bother myself that much.

Tom I'm not fascinated with the stories,I am fascinated that it isn't a bigger story. But that aside you know Obama's color has nothing to do with anything. The only ones who are fascinated with black or white these days is the left. Look at Jess' comment.
No matter the situation they bring up color,even though black people supported Hillary over Obama originally because they said he wasn't black enough.
It's his extreme leftism people don't agree with and thank goodness for a republican congress to "obstruct" his policies. Too bad they weren't the majority when the democrats went and destroyed our health care system.

Isn't it though Tom. Funny thing is, these people are always accusing the left of using that race card, when we call them out for their racism. It gets awfully confusing when you are a bagger I suppose.
