PUSH TO IMPEACH OBAMA MAKES MAJOR GAIN
Members of Congress more and more eyeing Washington solution

The possibility of impeaching Barack Obama based a wide range of alleged constitutional violations already has been discussed by a long list of members of Congress, from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, to Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif.
Now Rep. Paul Broun, a Georgia Republican who is seeking to replace the retiring Sen. Saxby Chambliss, is joining the list.
He’s accompanied by a couple of his opponents in the open race.
A video from a forum over the weekend featuring candidates for Chambliss’ seat shows Broun and two others, Derrick Grayson, an engineer, and Eugene Yu, a businessman, raising their hands when asked whether they would support impeachment.
A forum moderator asked the candidates: “Obama has perjured himself on multiple occasions. Would you support impeachment if presented for a vote?”
Broun, Grayson and Yu raised their hands.

At the Gilmer County GOP Forum on Saturday five of the eight Republican candidates in the Georgia Senate race were asked if they would vote to impeach President Barack Obama. Three signaled they would.

Push to impeach Obama makes major gain ...
He's got three years left in his presidential term, but will Barack Obama actually complete them?

The battle to impeach him has just taken an attention-getting new step toward frog-marching him out of the White House ...

Push to impeach Obama makes major gain

Members of Congress more and more eyeing Washington solution

The possibility of impeaching Barack Obama based a wide range of alleged constitutional violations already has been discussed by a long list of members of Congress, from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, to Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif.
Now Rep. Paul Broun, a Georgia Republican who is seeking to replace the retiring Sen. Saxby Chambliss, is joining the list.
He’s accompanied by a couple of his opponents in the open race.
A video from a forum over the weekend featuring candidates for Chambliss’ seat shows Broun and two others, Derrick Grayson, an engineer, and Eugene Yu, a businessman, raising their hands when asked whether they would support impeachment.
A forum moderator asked the candidates: “Obama has perjured himself on multiple occasions. Would you support impeachment if presented for a vote?”
Broun, Grayson and Yu raised their hands.
Several other candidates did not, and there were others vying for the office who were not in attendance.
WND has been reporting on members of Congress who have discussed impeachment. The list now includes:
Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa; Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas; Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Texas; Rep. Bill Flores, R-Texas; Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif.; Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.; Rep. Kerry Bentivolio, R-Mich.; Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas; Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla.; Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah; Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C.; Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn.; Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas; Rep. Trey Radel, R-Fla.; and Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla.
Read the definitive case for removing Barack Obama from office in “Impeachable Offenses” by Aaron Klein and Brenda J. Elliott.
Several, including King and Farenthold, made comments in interviews with Sean Hannity.
King pointed to the president’s actions on immigration, such as his orders for authorities not to enforce current immigration law, as grounds for impeachment.
He said there are multiple violations related to Obamacare and asserted the president’s “recess” appointments of judges when the Senate was not actually in recess also is worthy.
The “uber-presidency,” King said, has little or no respect for the Constitution.
Farenthold said Obama “is grabbing as much power as he can,” but Congress also is doing little to draw in the reins.
The two said that politically, Obama is exercising great power and believes Congress cannot or will not stop him.
“The president knows it; he’s exploiting it,” King said.

Stockman even handed out in Congress copies of a book that has been described by its authors as the “articles of impeachment” for Barack Obama. Stockman suggested that special investigations and possibly prosecutions are needed in response to Fast and Furious, Benghazi and other Obama scandals.
Rep. Bill Flores, R-Texas, was speaking at a town hall meeting when he considered the idea. A video of his comments was posted at the Western Center for Journalism.
“I’ve looked at the president. I think he’s violated the Constitution. I think he’s violated the Bill of Rights,” he said.
He said at some point a decision must be made.
“I think if the House had an impeachment vote, it would probably impeach the president.”
But he noted there are only 46 members of the GOP in the U.S. Senate, where an impeached president would be put on trial.
To obtain a conviction, the prosecuting team must have 67 votes, and he wasn’t sure even all of the GOP members would vote to convict.
“I think he’s breaking the law if he strikes without congressional approval,” Hunter told the Washington Times regarding Obama’s plan to bomb Syria. “And if he proceeds without Congress providing that authority, it should be considered an impeachable offense.”
WND previously reported Coburn’s statement that Obama is “perilously close” to qualifying for impeachment.
Speaking at the Muskogee Civic Center in Oklahoma, the senator said, “What you have to do is you have to establish the criteria that would qualify for proceedings against the president, and that’s called impeachment.”
Coburn said it’s “not something you take lightly, and you have to use a historical precedent of what that means.”

Earlier, Bentivolio said it would be a “dream come true” to impeach Obama.
Bentivolio told the Birmingham Bloomfield Republican Club Meeting, “You know, if I could write that bill and submit it, it would be a dream come true.”
He told constituents: “I feel your pain and I know. I stood 12 feet away from that guy and listened to him, and I couldn’t stand being there. But because he is president I have to respect the office. That’s my job as a congressman. I respect the office.”
Bentivolio said his experience with the president caused him to consult with attorneys about what it would take to remove Obama from office.
Cruz responded to a question about impeachment after a speech.
“It’s a good question,” Cruz said. “And I’ll tell you the simplest answer: To successfully impeach a president you need the votes in the U.S. Senate.”

In May, Inhofe suggested Obama could be impeached over a White House cover-up after the attack in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012.
He told listeners of “The Rusty Humphries Show”: “Of all the great cover-ups in history – the Pentagon papers, Iran-Contra, Watergate, all the rest of them – this … is going to go down as the most egregious cover-up in American history.”
But even with that searing indictment, Inhofe, too, stopped short of calling for impeachment.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, has offered tentative support for impeachment.
“I’m not willing to take it off the table, but that’s certainly not what we’re striving for,” he told CNN.
One Republican actually has come out and called for the impeachment of Obama, and he did it more than two years ago, before he became a congressman.
Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., posted on his website in June 2011 a list of reasons for impeachment.
Other figures who have discussed impeachment include Glenn Beck, Watergate investigative reporter Bob Woodward, WND columnist Nat Hentoff and a panel of top constitutional experts.
Stockman recently distributed copies of the book, “Impeachable Offenses: The Case for Removing Barack Obama From Office,” to the other 434 members of the House of Representatives to bolster his case for a special investigation of the president.

The bestselling “Impeachable Offenses” presents an indictment that goes well beyond today’s headlines.
The Daily Mail of London has called “Impeachable Offenses” “explosive,” reporting that the book contains a “systematic connect-the-dots exercise that the president’s defenders will find troublesome.”
Constituents also are reaching some surprising conclusions.
Voters in Republican Rep. Jim Bridenstine’s Oklahoma district may look meek and mild, maybe even sweet, but their opinions of President Obama reveal nothing but a battleground “take-no-prisoners” attitude.
One lady, for example, said there needs to be changes in the Senate so “we can impeach the S-O-B.”
Said another: “He’s not president as far as I’m concerned. … Should be executed. He’s an enemy combatant.”
She complained that Congress is doing nothing, and that “allows this moron to make decisions.”
“He has no authority. None.”
The video was uploaded just this week, but it’s unclear when the meeting was held, and the congressman’s office was unable to provide details immediately.
At one point the congressman references “back in April 2013,” and it appears to be winter, so likely it was recorded in the past few months.
The congressman had been documenting Obama’s “lawlessness.”

ALERT: Congressman gathering signatures to push Holder to appoint a special prosecutor for the IRS Investigation.

Fax Congress - Demand Co-signers!

American Conservative,

It has been nearly nine months and still no one at the IRS has been indicted.

Not one.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and his Department of Justice have been covering for the Internal Revenue Service and its crimes against conservative groups.

While it's true that there is an "investigation" into the IRS' illegal actions currently, the fact is: Holder appointed a partisan Democrat - a donor to both Obama and the Democratic National Committee - to head the probe!

What's worse, the Attorney General refuses to acknowledge this glaring conflict of interest...

In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing last week, Mr. Holder said "I don't have any basis to believe that the people who engaged in this investigation are doing so in a way other than investigations are normally done."

Despite the Attorney General's claim, it's clear that the IRS probe is in need of a new, unbiased prosecutor - one who will finds the facts, apply the law, and see that people are fired.

The good news is, U.S. Representative Bill Posey (R-Fla.) has recently begun gathering co-signers for a letter to Attorney General Holder demanding that a special prosecutor be assigned to the IRS investigation.

We need you to mobilize this message and call Congress to join with Rep. Posey and his efforts demanding Eric Holder's action. Sign and send your personalized faxes to lawmakers right away!

Take Action! Tell members of the U.S. House and Senate to CO-SIGN Rep. Posey's letter and DEMAND that Attorney General Eric Holder appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate the IRS and their targeting of conservative groups!

Off Script: IRS Leader Apologizes For Tea Party Targeting, Despite Obama’s ‘Not Even A Smidgen Of Corruption’ Denial

February 5, 2014 by Personal Liberty News Desk

New IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, who’s been on the job for less than two months, apologized today for the mess his IRS colleagues made when they helped President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign along by holding up conservative nonprofit groups ahead of the 2012 campaign.
While keeping his remarks general, Koskinen acknowledged to reporters that the scandal had caused “people” to “suffer,” and apologized before reporters after emerging from a grilling in front of the House Ways and Means Committee.
“It won’t happen going forward. And to the extent that people suffered accordingly, I apologize for that,” Koskinen said. He also pledged to cooperate with an ongoing series of Congressional and (nominally) criminal investigations into the scandal, although he wished aloud for the scandal to live only in the past as he settles into his leadership role.
After today, perhaps the White House will arrange a huddle with the Obama appointee to ensure everyone’s speaking from the same playbook. President Obama delivered a contradictory message three days ago when he sat down for a contentious interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, denying the IRS did anything malicious when it hit the Tea Party.
“There were some bone-headed decisions,” he told O’Reilly, hastening to add that there was, nevertheless, “not even mass corruption – not even a smidgen of corruption.”

The President can’t make law, Congress shouldn’t let him — Take Action!

ALERT: Obama intends to bypass Congress, move agenda forward via executive orders and actions. Fax Congress – Tell them to fight ALL ‘executive legislation’!
American Conservative,
One week ago, President Barack Obama stood before the nation and committed himself to a Year of Action… “with or without Congress.”
In his treasonous “State of the Union” address, the President confirmed that he’s willing to do whatever it takes to further his Big Government agenda – even if it means bypassing Congress altogether and signing “executive legislation”.
We’ve got to contact our elected servants right away and demand that they challenge him …
The fact is, Obama’s pledge to rule alone is patently unconstitutional as the executive has no power to legislate whatsoever.
This is why U.S. lawmakers must defend their unique, constitutional role from the Usurper-In-Chief by determining right now to stand against all forthcoming executive orders and actions.
We’ve got to tell every member of Congress to combat every single one of Obama’s illegal “lawmaking” efforts by defunding them and offering legislation to directly interfere with each and every one.
We’re calling on you to take action with us and your fellow Americans today tostop Obama’s executive lawbreaking!
Blast your personalized faxes to Congress now.
Take Action – Tell U.S. Representatives and Senators to OPPOSE all forthcoming executive orders and actions that would “LEGISLATE” without Congress. Article I, Section 1 of the Constitution says that ALL legislative powers belong to CONGRESS, not the President!

** Sign our petition and send a no-cost-message to your U.S. Representative and Senators demanding that they oppose all “executive legislation” from Barack Obama. Add your name here.

Obama Determined to Ignore Congress
Even before the State of the Union, it was clear that Barack Obama intends to flat-out ignore Congress if they don’t give him the bills he wants …
In a cabinet meeting early last month, President Obama said:

“We’re not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we’re providing Americans the kind of help they need. I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone. And I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward in helping to make sure our kids are getting the best education possible, making sure that our businesses are getting the kind of support and help they need to grow and advance, to make sure that people are getting the skills that they need to get those jobs that our businesses are creating.”

White House Senior Advisor Dan Pfeiffer confirmed Obama’s stance when he told Fox News that “if Congress doesn’t act, the president will.”
Obama mouthpiece Jay Carney also said that the President is determined to “bypass Congress where necessary” to carry-out his so-called “Year of Action.”

An Imperial President
U.S. Senator from Texas Ted Cruz notes Obama’s rule by executive fiat is “lawless” and the mark of an “imperial president.”
Writes Senator Cruz in the Wall Street Journal:

“The president’s taste for unilateral action to circumvent Congress should concern every citizen, regardless of party or ideology. The great 18th-century political philosopher Montesquieu observed: ‘There can be no liberty where the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person, or body of magistrates.’ America’s Founding Fathers took this warning to heart, and we should too.”

Senator Cruz is right. Our founders never provided the Executive with the power to create law as the Constitution clearly states: “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”
The sad fact is this: While Obama has no constitutional authority to create laws, if left unchallenged, he will. This is why we are asking you to take this issue to Congress.
As it is incumbent upon every elected servant to check the president and prevent him from ruling by executive fiat – it is also our responsibility to check our elected servants just the same.
Take a moment and blast faxes to lawmakers to end Obama’s “imperial” actions …
