Just like the Government shut-down, vote suppression, & their Holy Grail; Benghazi; Impeachment would drive us to the Motivated frenzy we need to be in for 2014 & 2016... plus it would continue to scare the shit out of every Moderate & center-right sane Republican left ...

Go ahead, make my day; punk!!!!
