House GOP too busy for impeachment?

An interesting intra-party debate has unfolded in Republican circles recently over whether or not to pursue impeachment against President Obama. At a distance, GOP officials appear to be divided into three separate groups.

The first is shouting, “Impeach!” without much regard for consequences or merit. The second is responding, “Sue him instead!” as an apparent attempt at placating Republican extremists. The third contingent agrees with the first group, and would love to impeach for reasons that no one seems able to explain, but fears political blowback and realizes the Senate wouldn’t remove the president from office. For this faction, the crusade just isn’t worth the effort.

But yesterday, one Texas congressman put a new spin on this third group’s message, saying Obama “definitely deserves” to be impeached – again, no one knows why – but House Republicans can’t pursue this because they don’t have time.
Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX) was somewhat more sympathetic to the idea but even he opposed initiating impeachment proceedings “right now,” arguing that the House is too busy to get to it.

“The president deserves to be impeached. Plain and simple,” he said. “But … we have so much on our plate that it’s not practical.”

This isn’t a good argument. It is, however, an unintentionally hilarious argument.

5. That image needs to be floated constantly. Most lazy Congress in history claims today 'to much'.

Please crank up the pressure Mr. President, you're still WAY to easy on them.

6. Just to clarify, the House is NOT "lazy"

In fact, these clowns work their butts off.

They have to spend A LOT of time kissing ass to raise money, it is really the bulk of what they do. They also expend an extraordinary amount of time engaging in crazed partisan politics. They have worked themselves into an absolutely FRENZY hating this president, and I believe expend a great deal of energy breathlessly whipping themselves and their zombie base into a lather hating the President.

It takes a LOT of time and energy to get yourself so deluded to engage in brazen, out and out sedition while believing in your very heart of hearts that you are TRUE PATRIOT.

Shit isn't getting done - on a good day. But, make no mistake, these jackasses aren't just waking up at 10 am, watching TV until they go for a casual lunch, taking a mid afternoon nap before going out for a casual dinner.

They work VERY hard at being the worst, most partisan and country destroying bunch of assholes this country has ever seen.

7. Too busy to rid our country of a so-called "Tyrant"

What would our founding fathers have to say about that?

Or maybe President Obama isn't really a tyrant?
