So, without enough Democrats in the Senate who are both very angry at Obama, and willing to kowtow to the Republicans, there just aren't any pissy gripes from the House that could succeed in a Senate trial.

"kill lists, drone strikes, and NSA spying."
Where do you think these programs started? Where did the laws change so this was allowable? When Bush was approving the changing of all these rules I knew they would come back to bite the Republicans in the ass but they are so narrow minded all they could see is the moment when they were in power. President Obama is doing nothing illegal. He is just using the power the Republicans gave themselves under Bush. Not saying what he is doing is right but it's not illegal by the powers given to him.
Presidents can only be impeached in the Senate.
Actually he has done quite well on his campaign promises if you look outside the conservative news bubble. And he has compromised on over half of his promises kept. Blows that lie out of the water:
Promise Kept 241 (45%)
Compromise 131 (25%)
Promise Broken 118 (22%)
Stalled 5 (1%)
In the Works 30 (6%)
Not yet rated 7 (1%)

I've asked myself this many times. I wonder what type of intel he is seeing that made him keep the programs open and even expand them. I bet the intelligence is a little overwhelming when you first get in office. More than any President imagined on the campaign trail. There probably isn't much sleep those first few nights. And how much of that is real and not scare tactics by the CIA, FBI, NSA and the military so they can keep those large funds flowing in?
That should have been 'a third of his promises kept' not half.
Didn't we have bunch of left wing dip shits right here in SLOG just a few weeks ago saying that Obama was a tyrant.
Oh. Hey. I see a couple are right in this thread now.
Well. Guess what? you think Obama is a tyrant? Michelle Bachman is the company you keep. And that's why nobody listens to your crazy fringe asses.
I've lived in places under ACTUAL tyrants. You know the kind that kick in your door in the middle of the night and disappear your ass for hanging a poster they didn't like. It's NOTHING like here in America. Nothing.
Spend a few years in places like that and then tell me about god damned tyrants, you entitled spoiled little whiners.
I don't see how those Healthcare Exchanges opened up if a CR wasn't passed to fund them.
See, that's the thing that gets me. There are so many reasons to be really pissed about Obama. Why do they have to make shit up?
Jeeezzzz
calling him simply an "American citizen" is purposely misleading. C'mon, you know i'm right!
For fucks sake, read the Constitution once in a while. Or buy a high school civics textbook. It is embarrassing that you would correct someone with the wrong answer when it takes 5 seconds to search for it.
really in the mood for some peach cobbler!
I'm actually kind of disappointed that Bachmann isn't running again. It's crazy morons like her and Louis Gomert and Virginia Foxx that keep the U.S. House of Representatives entertaining.
The last thing we need are reasonable Republicans. The crazier the better. I'll continue to make popcorn.
