Message to a nervous GOP – Impeachment doesn’t necessitate removal from office…

At a House Judiciary hearing, ‘Impeachment’ talk has resurfaced on Capitol Hill.

Even a liberal George Washington University law professor openly stated during the Congressional Hearing that Obama’s lawless acts deserve a Constitutional rebuke.

House GOP leaders are nervous. They resent Obama’s unconstitutional acts, but are also skittish about the “i” word, seeing little public sentiment to support such an act.

None of them want to be involved in impeaching Obama, for a variety of reasons.

Are they missing a larger point? None want responsibility for removing the first black president from office…but fail to realize ‘impeachment’ doesn’t dictate removal.

Article 1, Section 3 of the Constitution states

“Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.”

“Judgment…shall not extend further…” That leaves a lot of room for actions that can halt Obama’s lawless behavior without necessarily going as far as “…removal from Office…”

Andrew McCarthy has written brilliant, focused impeachment articles on this very issue.

The Weekly Standard’s Barnes notes Obama’s under-water in 5 crucial polling issues. It begs the question of why the GOP is still afraid to go down an impeachment path.

Obama’s lawlessness must be stopped – otherwise, at what point is there a Red Line?

Our August 27 blog pointed out the problem of SELECTIVELY enforcing the Law..

…with such an act, Americans no longer become subject to the Law

…we become subject to those who do the selecting.

Impeachment is a final Constitutional check on a branch of government running rough-shod over the Rule of Law, thus subjecting American citizens to a Rule of Elitists…

Impeachment is possible. The House initiates the proceedings, but first must de-fang a  Democrat Senate willing to be complicit in Obama’s lawlessness.

An earlier BCP blog laid out the path…impeach Obama and Senate Democrats who, as co-conspirators, were guilty of the ‘if you like your health plan, you can keep it’  fraud.

The Senate Democrats are thus removed from hearing the impeachment process, and the balance of Senate power hearings then shifts to the Senate GOP, as the majority.

Impeachment gives the Congress power to check Obama’s lawless activities, right up to the doorway that could remove him from Office…if public sentiment swings that way.

If not, leave him in Office, but de-fanged.

(After all, a de-fanged Obama is preferable to a President Biden…!)

And we ALL know what happens when the back-end isn’t working…

Reflecting on the joke about the organs of a human body arguing which was most powerful, it’s particularly laughable when you see a headline like this on Obamacare…

…”CBS: Backend of Obamacare Website Is Not Functioning…”

As the story goes, the brain and heart made their case, then the stomach chimed in…

But when the ‘back-end’ stopped working…

After 3+ years, still hyping the unworkable…?

Obama’s hitting the road again, to campaign for support of Obamacare.

But, if a law only works when it’s foundational mechanisms are delayed or not enforced, how does he expect to hype its benefits? And who does he expect to believe the lies?

Someone should explain to him – his problem isn’t that Americans aren’t buying his hype…

…his problem is he can’t sell it…

This is how STUPID Obama thinks voters are…

Warnings that 90 million+ Americans could lose their employer-provided health plans throughout the next year (just before elections) prompts another illegal Obama act.

Although it’s part of the law that employers buy health plans on O’care exchanges now, Obama’s trying to dodge a 2014 election disaster, pushing the mandate past elections.

Exemptions, delays, waivers, illegal demands that insurers violate law…all to hide the fact that IF the O’care monster is ever unleashed, voters will show outrage at the polls.

Are voters REALLY as stupid as Obama and his team believe them to be?

A Thanksgiving message…and a few questions to consider…

BlueCollar extends a wish for all to have a Happy Thanksgiving.

And, poses a few questions to ponder, during the haze of after-dinner bliss…

Reading yet one more article slapping Republicans for lousy messaging when it comes to the support of Conservatism… or the dangers of Liberalism… a dichotomy emerges.

Is the GOP’s truthful message that bad…or are the Democrats’ lies that good?

First, with hardships of Obamacare hitting many Americans already, it’s extremely ironic to believe a senior writer – complaining about GOP messaging – would title an article “Be Thankful For…Obamacare”. Maybe this sums up why GOP messaging fails?

Then there’s the Conservative message, which centers on personal responsibility. The Democrat message is all about ‘letting the gov’t do that for you’. Many buy that hope.

And don’t forget the forces arrayed against Conservatives, which include the media.

False hopes + non-accountability + mainstream media allies = a steep GOP climb…

The tide is turning…Obama’s lies have caught up to him…Americans are awakening.

This Thanksgiving, if you take a moment from family to think politics, would it be too much to include a silent prayer, that voters will finally rebel against Democrat lies?

Ignoring the ‘160-lb Liar’ in the room…

Juan Williams bleeds everyone’s heart with an article about the GOP’s refusal to bring immigration reform to a vote in the House, and how it will haunt Republicans.

Beyond Williams’s HUGE Liberal bias, lies an obvious question conveniently ignored.

Considering Obama’s lawless acts refusing to enforce laws he doesn’t like (e.g., his refusal to enforce current deportation law), and his continuous lies concerning just about everything else, from Obamacare to Green Energy to Benghazi…

…why vote on an immigration bill that’s predicated on his promises to enforce borders?

Obama’s lies are intentional; he really doesn’t want the GOP to trust him. Then, when they refuse to consider legislation because of the 160-lb liar in the room, the GOP can be painted as obstructionists, anti-this and anti-that, by the Liars Club…Democrats.

The Socratic principle of debate requires intelligence, candor (honesty), and good will by both sides…sadly, Obama and his Democrat cohort are lacking in these areas.

Obama’s poll numbers reveal Americans distrust him. The GOP should drive that point home in every discussion…how can you deal with a liar who dishonors the law?

On this, we predict Juan Williams will continue to remain silent.

More importantly, though, Obama’s lies, fraud, and illegalities destabilize the Rule of Law in the United States of America, and on that basis, justify his impeachment.

Of course, that’s just one humble opinion…

Israel exposes Kerry, Obama for the fools they are…

Gun Control…Nuke Control…it’s all the same to these guys.

John Kerry demanded that critics of Obama’s Iran deal must give reasons.

Israel’s incredulity must have been obvious when they asked……you mean besides…

 …”UN Security Council resolutions 1696, 1737, 174718031835, and 1929, all of which demand that Iran suspend all nuclear enrichment…”? (But Iran has ignored.)

As with ‘gun control’, this administration refuses to acknowledge the obvious…

creating more law to curb those who break laws with impunity is a Fool’s Errand.

Israel should demand Kerry & Obama explain how yet another law solves the problem of a terrorist-enabling nation like Iran bent on securing nuclear power…

when at least 6 previous Security Council resolutions failed to do so…!

OMG – Are we witnessing a ‘spirited’ enrollment…?

Don’t panic – the ghostly stench of dead fish isn’t your imagination…

…that ‘106k’ figure Obama’s team came up with for O’care enrollments smells.

Seems they counted a lot of people who ‘selected’ a plan…but haven’t paid yet.

If that’s not a formula for ‘ghost enrollments’, we don’t know what is…

Until a plan is actually paid for, it would be easy to inflate enrollee numbers, since doing so would never be recognized if payment is never made!

First we had fake Obama Twitter-&-Facebook-followers, and of course, who can forget the fake unemployment numbers put out by Obama’s team just before election time?

And, it’s no surprise really…a lot of dead people have successfully voted for Democrats over the years…why expect any less for their Obamacare travesty?

Dead…fake…all the same…a distinction without a difference, wouldn’t you agree?

After all, in the end, Obama’s just following a long-standing Democrat tradition.

With that groundwork laid, you can expect the ‘spirited enrollee’ numbers to expand significantly over the next 11 months (and you can also expect the HHS to stonewall attempts to get any actual ‘payment’ numbers from the administration)…pre-election.

(FYI – a BCP blog of Oct 21 discussed/predicted the potential of fake enrollees

…it’s SO hard to be humble.)

Rush channels BlueCollar on Democrats’ nuking filibuster move

This morning, Rush Limbaugh channeled the BlueCollar Perspective.

Yesterday, BCP stated Senate Democrats were eliminating the centuries-old filibuster tradition, to make sure Obama can stack the deck with his nominations, pre-election.

Democrats expect an anti-O’care backlash in Nov 2014…pushing through presidential nominees with a simple majority vote pre-election will insulate Liberal ideology and make it that much more difficult for a Republican Congress to repeal bad law.

We saw it, and branded the Democrat move for what it was…now Rush confirms it.

Strap in – Expect more nasty Harry Reid/Democrat deeds before Nov. ’14.
