Alan Keyes Hopes Jesus Christ Will Help Fight To Impeach Obama

SUBMITTED BY Brian Tashman on Friday, 1/10/2014 10:45 am

Alan Keyes is now citing Jesus Christ in his drive to elect members of Congress who will pledge to support the impeachment and removal of President Obama, who he says is practicing “socialist gangsterism” and using gun laws to have people “slaughtered by the thousands and the hundreds of thousands.”

Writing today in WorldNetDaily, Keyes claims that most Americans do support impeachment but are being ignored by leaders in Congress. He doubts that America can “wait three more years for the chance to end Obama’s destructive socialist coup d’état” that is creating a “vicious, dictatorial regime.”

However, he is hopeful that Jesus Christ “has the power to restore [America] to the better path of human destiny” and help “the movement to impeach and remove Obama and his cronies from office.”

Leavened with malice and deceit, they rise to power, these hardcore socialists like Obama. Once positioned to do so, they move to consolidate unbridled tyranny. Their infamous goal: to impose the “dictatorship of the proletariat.”

That supposedly populist Marxist catchphrase slyly distracts from the fact that everywhere they achieve political success, socialist ideologues practice gangster government – of, by and for a self-serving elitist clique. As gangsters typically do, they encourage whatever vices they can manipulate. They also liberally apply the salt of fear, to make their banal rule more palatable. And when they have attained sufficient power, they do not shrink from doing so with brutally forceful measures.

he is a danger to himself and others......

He is clearly delusional or just so full it is oozing out of every orifice.

I especially like his claim Obama is using gun laws to be able to kill thousands of Americans. Last time I checked the only proposals coming from the Administration were in the wake of the horrific massacre at Newtown for stronger background checks. That was it. No attempt to take guns away from people.

But those that believe that GUNS will be match for the government are fooling themselves. If they really feel threatened by the government GUNS will not be their salvation. The U.S. military can subdue any armed uprising holding one hand behind their back and not breaking a sweat.

That Jesus has more important work to do than to worry about US politics. The time that was documented about Jesus's work here on earth - he mainly worked with the poor and downtroddened. I think if Jesus were here today he would do more of the same!

Do you think it's just possible, Jesus has already weighed in on the issue? Just as, you have him having the power to act, doesn't he have the power to, also, not act?

9. Aw come on Alan. I thought the Constitution was supposed to be your carrying card.

Your problem with impeachment is that you're missing that essential element of impeachment the forefathers stuck in the Constitution to piss you and the other rightwingnuts off. It's called, "HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS". Without the presence of at least one of them, you and your party got nothing.
