Senior White House advisers are taking very seriously the possibility that Republicans in Congress will try to impeach President Obama, especially if he takes executive action to slow deportations.
Dan Pfeiffer, a senior adviser to Obama, said Friday that the White House is taking the prospect of impeachment in the GOP-controlled House more seriously than many others in Washington, who see it as unlikely.
Pfeiffer noted that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who has a large following among Tea Party conservatives, has called for Obama’s impeachment and a large block of the GOP’s base favors it.
Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL) told colleagues that the House should pass legislation with new steps to secure the border, and tell Obama if he didn't implement it, they would impeach him. "He either enforces the laws on the books—as he was hired and elected to do—or he leaves Congress no option. This is not our choice, this is the President's choice and I would advise him to uphold the law on the books," Yoho said in a written statement after the meeting.

There may in fact be a good case for impeachment.
Possibly...
But it won't matter - Obama is already writing up an Executive Order to override the impeachment.

Ya baseless claims like him writing up a EO to override an impeachment do great in threads like this. Sure to get you plenty of stars.

Do we really want to give Biden the seat? At this stage of the game maybe we should just ride it out and hope to heck the pickings are better in 2016.
The White House is defying a congressional subpoena (pertaining to misusing government resources for political purposes) by keeping a top political aide to President Barack Obama from testifying at a hearing Friday, setting up a potential new legal battle
I thought he learned of everything first through the news - "just like the rest of us". Jay Carney on how Obama learned about the VA scandal. < how sad

Wait how could the White take take impeachment 'seriously' ?
After all he doesn't 'watch the news'.
Pre sident Who Learns Everything Bad From The News Says He Doesn't Watch The News
Hell that one deserves it's own thread.
Guess the White House is 'feeling' guilty'.
