Laying Out The Case

by digby


In case you were wondering what kind of fever dreams the wingnuts were planning to bring to life if they gain a majority, here's what one of my emailers sent today. I think you can see where Sharron Angle and those people at the tea party rallies are getting their kookier ideas:

"The Case for Impeachment: Why Barack Hussein Obama Should be Impeached to Save America" by Steven Baldwin covers all of these issues and more in making its arguments.

"This is the beginning of the end for the United States unless the people exercise their precious remaining liberties and stand and demand that their elected representatives impeach this president before further mortal damage is inflicted upon America," the report concludes.

The author explains that the Founding Fathers enshrined the impeachment clause into the United States Constitution because they feared that a president intent on subverting the very principles upon which the American experiment was built would someday rise to power.

"Despite all the checks and balances and obstacles they put in place, the Founders knew a determined cabal could still gain control of all three branches of government and wield this consolidation of power to dismantle our cherished constitutional principles, and eradicate the freedoms that generations of Americans sacrificed their lives to preserve," he writes.

"Make no mistake: That day is now upon us."

In "The Case for Impeachment," Baldwin, a senior research fellow at the Western Journalism Center, says the issue of impeachment "is no longer a laughing matter."

OK, there's more, if you dare or care...

It seems thin to me, but once you've impeached a president over a blowjob, I think the threshold is probably pretty low.

1. I hope some of our candidates make this an issue

Even the muddled middle won't be able to stomach the thought of Impeachment taking precedence over problem solving.

2. This is what happens when you're a washed up loser and so jealous of your

family members with actual talent like Alec...

Sad cry for attention. Ugh.

3. I am almost certain he is NOT a Baldwin brother...

It's some OTHER handjob with the same name.

BUT, I will admit to you that for a minute or two, I thought the very same thing.

12. Oops, my bad.

4. I don't think it's the same guy, unless Steven Baldwin is

'a senior research fellow at the Western Journalism Center'. If he is, that center is in big trouble! :D

11. Actually...

this is the other stupid Stephen Baldwin, not the famous one.

[Curmudgeoness]

5. If you use impeachment too often, without any

real consequences, it will become a useless tool. Impeachment does not have as much meaning as it used to since the blowjob impeachment. Keep it up and it will be as common as farts after a bean dinner.

6. Guy is a nutcase

Western Center for Journalism

By Steven Baldwin:

Obama appoints Homosexual Propagandist to Education

The Mystery of Barack Obama Continues

Is Obama A Closet Racist?

Obama Surrounds Himself with the Most Extreme Appointees in American History

Is Obama Stupid and Lazy?

Western Center for Journalism run by two nutcases

[ProSense]

8. More

In March 2009, Media Matters (via HuffPo) connected the lunatic dots.

7. well, you see, Obama has just not had big enough lies

you know - like invisible and unfounded WMDs and boogie men hiding behind every Constitutional right.

and besides, you see, when hundreds of thousands in the streets protesting prior to the beginning of an illegal war gets less media coverage than one wingfuck with a 30 congregational "church" and the president responds to such digusting behavior - well, you only have one option left

that is

impeachment

Aw, jeeze... is right.

[Cha]

9. Excuse my graphic language..

Fuck the idiots..he's our President and assholes far and wide can take note..there will be no impeachment..you miserable lazy jerkoffs.

[jillan]

10. What is his case? That the Dems won all 3 branches of government?

That's called Democracy you little idiot.

[Lasher]

13. The threashold is low only for Democratic Presidents.

If you are a Republican President who has promoted torture and acts of surveillance that clearly violate our Constitutional protection against unacceptable intrusion of our privace, you're off the table.

Don't dispair, Sister. You're doin' great.

14. Steven Baldwin is probably one of the 50 members of Pastor Jone's parish.

If not, he should be. He's just as crazy.
