Republican Rep. warns of Obama impeachment if GOP forces debt default - Polidicks

[QUOTE=SwissArmyKnife;31355019]Playing life or death chicken with a nation of 311,833,000 people should be grounds for impeachment.[/QUOTE] That's not how it works.

[QUOTE=Fort83;31354966]Everyone meet at Megafanx's place to start this movement.[/QUOTE] We'll call it the "My House" movement.

Do these fuckers not realize that Liberals have guns too? If they fuck it up and make us default, there will be massive riots. None of them will be safe.

[QUOTE=Fort83;31354463]The Republicans will go to no ends to get Obama out of the oval office, even if it means a global financial crisis that will put everyone in a great depression. Why aren't they charged for treason?![/QUOTE] you raise a good point, WTF America?

yeah impeaching the president during a global economic crisis would be a great idea! why not declare war on all those countries we owe money to while we're at it?

[QUOTE=geoface;31355281]you raise a good point, WTF America?[/QUOTE] I think you mean "WTF Republicans?".

[QUOTE=djshox;31355185]That's not how it works.[/QUOTE] Unfortunately not, but holding the country hostage because you refuse to compromise is a pretty dick move.

[QUOTE=SwissArmyKnife;31355415]Unfortunately not, but holding the country hostage because you refuse to compromise is a pretty dick move.[/QUOTE] Yes, it is a dick move on the Republicans' part.

[QUOTE=Megafanx13;31355368]I think you mean "WTF Republicans?".[/QUOTE] "WTF America" if these people are still in senate/parliament/whatever.

[QUOTE=djshox;31355446]Yes, it is a dick move on the Republicans' part.[/QUOTE] That's what I was getting at this whole time, sorry if it sounded like I was referring to Obama.

I blame the Republicans for call of duty

[QUOTE=Jetpack Bear;31356216]I blame the Republicans for call of duty[/QUOTE] Of all the things in the world you can blame republicans for you choose something as insignificant as Call of duty?

[QUOTE=Miskav;31346356]Fuck off Republicans, no-one likes you. Not a single person on the earth with a rational mind likes Republicans, why wont you get this.[/QUOTE] because jesus likes them :downs:

[quote] "Obama would be impeached if he blocked debt payments." [/quote] You can only impeach the president if they break a law. And how is Obama breaking a law when it's Congress's job to handle money and the budget. Obama isn't the one spending money and paying the debt.

[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;31357168]You can only impeach the president if they break a law. And how is Obama breaking a law when it's Congress's job to handle money and the budget. Obama isn't the one spending money and paying the debt.[/QUOTE] Even then, he isn't blocking shit.

I liked the [URL="http://politicalcorrection.org/blog/201107250004"]Political Correction[/URL] post on this. [QUOTE]So, if the president invokes the 14th Amendment to continue paying the government's bills in the event of congressional failure to increase the debt ceiling, House Republicans will try to impeach him. And if the government doesn't make debt payments, House Republicans will try to impeach him. (If history is any guide, even if President Obama eventually manages to balance the budget, House Republicans will try to impeach him then, too.)[/QUOTE]

Republicans....... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbMLphi7HQU&feature=player_embedded[/media] They are hypocrites and need to stop the whole "Herp derp, lets oppose Obama just because he is not a Republican." They also need to realize that the US can make do with less funding for military (you do have many many allies). Making guns, which may never be used against an enemy, is a whole lot less important than the healthcare and social security.

[QUOTE=geoface;31355281]you raise a good point, WTF America?[/QUOTE] No, WTF Republicans? Republicans are not the majority. [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7b/U.S._party_affiliation.svg[/img] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:U.S._party_affiliation.svg]Source.[/url]

[QUOTE=Lazor;31355305]yeah impeaching the president during a global economic crisis would be a great idea! why not declare war on all those countries we owe money to while we're at it?[/QUOTE] Not so loud, they might actually use that idea. Also, legally, Obama can't be impeached for shit like this. [quote=Article II, Section 4 of the US Constitution]The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.[/quote] I'm fairly sure trying to stop the nation from going into default is the complete opposite of treason, and he's certainly not taking any bribes. "High crimes and misdemeanors" is pretty vague, too. Even if they take him to trial over this shit, there's no way he'd be convicted. It's just not possible.

[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7b/U.S._party_affiliation.svg[/img] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:U.S._party_affiliation.svg]Source.[/url][/QUOTE] They are in the House of Representatives. So the Dems can't do shit, or the president, and the republicans don't give a shit until America has to default, the economy is in shit, and making sure the president leaves in 2012. So they could say We told you so and take power again.

I love the blind bandwagon anger towards Republicans. Both sides are at fault for not negotiating a solution.

[QUOTE=Shoe Phone;31358565]I love the blind bandwagon anger towards Republicans. Both sides are at fault for not negotiating a solution.[/QUOTE] No. Simply no. Every plan presented to the republicans was either rejected because Obama endorsed it or because it did not cut funding from insignificant things that the Republicans happen to be butt-hurt over. They are refusing to help save the country because they simply cannot live in a US of A where a woman has a say over what happens in her body or senior citizens have a stable future. It's absolutely pathetic how consumed the GOP is with these "social issues" that they are willing to take the nation into default to get their way over them. [editline]26th July 2011[/editline] And before anyone says "but not all Republicans are like that" - this may be true, but the majority of them are. You people are in the minority, supporting a party that is doing absolutely insane shit. If you don't agree with them, why are you voting for them? Simply because you are financially conservative should not mean you have to endorse the GOP. Why is there not two conservative parties, one more focused on financial liberty, and one more focused on social conservatism?

[QUOTE=Shoe Phone;31358565]I love the blind bandwagon anger towards Republicans. Both sides are at fault for not negotiating a solution.[/QUOTE] I love the blindness you show by saying this.

[QUOTE=Shoe Phone;31358565]I love the blind bandwagon anger towards Republicans. Both sides are at fault for not negotiating a solution.[/QUOTE] Oh man you just don't learn, do you? The Democrats have made [B]concession, after concession, after concession, and the Republicans have made NONE.[/B] How you can be of the mindset that they are in any way at fault for the failure of these negotiations is beyond me.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;31358839]because fox news says the dems are bad.[/QUOTE] This would be funny if it weren't the actual reason behind it. Right now it is just sad that any human could have that lack of critical thinking skills.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;31358886]This would be funny if it weren't the actual reason behind it. Right now it is just sad that any human could have that lack of critical thinking skills.[/QUOTE] It makes my blood boil.

Typical Republican troll. Can not beat them so lets impeach.
