Palin is joining in Gohmert's claim that President Obama is committing a high crime by not agreeing to the GOP's ransom demands http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/palin-obama-is-flirting-with-impeachable-offenses
Former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin accused President Barack Obama on Monday of coming dangerously close to "impeachable offenses."
In a post on her Facebook page, Palin wrote that Obama is trying to create a sense of fear over Thursday's looming debt limit deadline. Obama warned Monday that the United States faces "a good chance of defaulting" unless Republicans in Congress "set aside some of their partisan concerns."
"Its also shameful to see him scaremongering the markets with his talk of default," Palin wrote. "There is no way we can default if we follow the Constitution. The Fourteenth Amendment, Section 4, requires that we service our debt first. We currently collect more than enough tax revenue to service our debt if we do that first."
Both Gohmert and Palin have less than a half of a brain each. This is sad but to be expected

They're insane. Totally insane. Totally and utterly divorced from reality.

(22,124 posts)gibberish and immature rhetoric. How many people showed up to her little rally yesterday? 20? I don't know why the media continues to cover her as if she is someone worthy of "news" or anyone at all important to the political process.
Just shut up, grow up and drag your butt back to Alaska already.

(144,945 posts)It has been clear to me for some time that the GOP will try to impeach President Obama. The only question is when. I hope that the GOP try this stunt before the 2014 elections

(144,945 posts)Louie says that if we default on the debt ceiling, thats an impeachable offense. (Take a deep breath.) For President Obama.
Thats right. If congress doesnt vote to raise the debt ceiling, then they can impeach President Obama for I dunno, like theyve ever needed a reason?
What is it with Republicans and the word impeach? Didnt they learn anything from Bill Clinton? You can impeach em but you cannot cook and eat em. Hell, Bill Clinton was all over the stage at the last Democratic National Convention but Republicans were hiding George W Bush in an attic somewhere feeding him a pet goat or some damn thing.
Louie and Palin are two birds of a feather

Nonetheless, it would be just dandy if you would help gin up your fellow teabaggers for an impeachment run during the 2014 election cycle. Obama was never counting on being able to have his last 2 years with control of the House and the Senate, but with your help, lady ...
