this is odd because I have wondered the same thing myself, for a while now
Impeaching Obama would send America into turmoil, I think that would be right up his alley.
Why does he seem so lackadaisical, because he his, he is enjoying ever second of this fiasco.

Weapons of news destruction at it again.
Always the premier source for misinformation and endless lies of the birther crowd.
But, as I've said, there's literally zero chance this will get the results you all want.

Nervous isn't the word i would use, excited to get the house and senate back after the dismal failure this would be.
Government could start working again.

I don't recall anywhere near the level of calls for impeachment (or any, for that matter) though when he was in power. It all seems a little, well, fishy that there is such a vociferous campaign against Obama and one has to wonder, why?

Hmmmm, the Guardian is a left-wing rag which things as much as shooting an enemy who is firing at you is a War Crime - it is interesting in that it thinks because the US is only involved in Afghanistan that it cannot fight it's enemies wherever the be found. Using the definitions set out in that article, merely firing a weapon where civilians might be is a "war crime".
Much like "hate crimes", or "racism" etc, its a word that is bandied about so much it's actually lost much of it's meaning. A true war crime is the deliberate targeting and killing of non-combatant's, for example, which simply is not the case with these drone strikes. Killing people accidentally is, unfortunately, part of War and it's highly suspect that people should be wringing their hands on the side lines and crying "war crime" any time it happens.

Hmm. I can understand the sentiment; but, correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't the president have to commit a crime to be impeached? Or is it also to be a way for dissastisfied citizens to oust the man in power?

Impeached for what?? Being president with the wrong skin colour? Oh wait, it's a Xuenchen thread, never mind!

A lot of it did start under Bush (and before) but you can only pass the buck so much. he still supported it and allowed it to grow.
We all know Clinton and Bush started much of this, but Obama has taken it to all new crazy levels, that is what he does.
Spending, all new crazy levels. War on Terror, all new crazy levels. Socialized medicine, all new crazy levels. Attack on the Constitution, all new crazy levels. Recession recovery, all new crazy levels of failure there.
Its like saying that because other Presidents stole an apple off a tree and Obama robed a bank it is all the same, since both are stealing. The big difference is we could recover from anything that any other president did, I'm not so sure about this time.
I don't remember Obama starting any wars. Or turning a blind eye to torture. Or screwing up those wars with blatant stupidity and incompetence.

With Benghazi Obama violated the espionage act which is definitely a crime. And the Arms Export Control Act to the IRS in which there are violation of IRS law, to witness tampering on multiple counts. There are tons of charges can be brought against the Obama administration. REAL CRIMES. But if you support Obama or are someone in congress or the house, or the senate that is afraid of him, then you would be inclined to pretend it doesn't count.
Or like the MSM which doesn't even talk about his crimes, and when they do talk, it never focuses on any of the crimes he has committed, and they just pretend they never happened or they don't apply to the president.
Obama runs his criminal enterprise just like the mafia where he doesn't have to do anything except just let his minions do all the dirty work. All of those minions were handpicked and groomed into place for the purpose of making law breaking by Obama, a sure fire thing. Because his goals and agendas by their very definition require laws be broken to accomplish.
You not being aware that he has broken laws just shows how well public opinion and perception has been successfully manipulated by his backers and people in the press and media, and the CIA, NSA whom are all on board with him.
But just a tidbit of researching the crimes he has done will return a lot of reliable sources that leave no question about it. I would say that a large majority of people on the whole planet know he has committed plenty of crimes worthy of being thrown behind bars for. Obama is a toilet bug, and I hope someone tells him I said so.
