Congress can impeach any officer of the government for any reason it is willing to face the voters for.

Now days, that pretty much means that the voters are going to have to be baying for blood before Congress will impeach and convict any high official. But it wouldn’t have to be for anything actually criminal.

The true purpose of those meetings as it was placed in the proposals was in fact to try and get people to make decisions to end their lives by using coercion. You only had to read what was proposed to recognize that there was a sinister purpose and that it was in fact meant to put pressure on the elderly to “do the right thing”.

Alzheimer’s is a brain disease where people deteriorate. At the worst stage these people need a lot of care and attention which can be provided in a nursing home facility. Lots of people with Alzheimers can function for a very long time before they fully deteriorate.

Obesity is an epidemic in the US. It is by far the #1 cause of death and other illnesses. If you didn’t just read the echo chamber and read the Public Health Reports, you would know that it is a cause of concern.

The ‘Death Panel’ was nothing more than ‘End of Life Counseling’ – which already exists, and is a fantastic idea (you know – do the talk before they get hit with Alzheimers).

You are insane.

A Axe on October

====================================================

The ad hominem attack that you have made does not address the issue which is that under Hitler there was an exercise campaign and that this is now being forced upon people again.

Even if obesity is at epidemic levels in the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK and yes even in Germany, that has nothing to do with the issue which is the policies that are similar to that of Hitler in Nazi Germany.

In those days it was calisthenics that were the rage, and people had to participate. There is nothing wrong with doing simple exercises in the home, or being on a health kick. There is something wrong when it is something that is mandated.

This is about voluntary actions vs. mandated actions.

It would seem that since you lost because you showed that you knew nothing about Nazi Germany that you decided to attack the person… that is not cool.

It is obvious that you know nothing about Hitler and the Nazi regime. Healthy exercise was very much a part of that scene. I am sure that someone could find the information regarding the exercise regimen that all children were required to do at the time. What he forgot was the Hitler Youth which bears a lot of similarity to Obama Youth…..

The Constitution includes impeachment for Congress to remove corrupt Presidents, and other federal officials as well.

Sounds like we could impeach the whole government on the basis of corruption alone. Let’s get going.

re: Saddam Hussein. He was not democratically elected to the position of President. Very few people seem to realize how he came to power. It was with the barrel of a gun. Specifically, he went into the Iraqi Assembly as it consisted back then, and with a group of like minded individuals, he shot up and killed those present. In other words Hussein came to power via a coup d’etat.

In the case of Clinton, the impeachable offense was not what he did with Monica Lewinsky, including all of the pornographic details of his dalliance. It was the fact that he lied under oath. He committed perjury. It is for that reason that those who claimed that he could not be impeached were wrong.

As for Tricky Dicky Nixon and Spiro Agnew, well what they did was contemptible. However, the break-in or rather the Watergate scandal should not have been enough for impeachment to be successful, based upon the standards that are being applied to certain Democrat Presidents.

Out of all of these people, the one who has caused the most harm to the USA is Obama. Clinton was not causing any harm from the point of view of the world at large. Tricky Dicky was not causing harm even from the domestic viewpoint… he took action that in fact ended USA participation in Vietnam… but that did not stop the Democrats calling fro his blood with all of their constant screams of calling him “Mad Bomber Nixon”, even though it was LBJ who was doing most of the bombing…. and who caused the upgrading of participation in Vietnam and South East Asia.

Whilst it is too early to start the calls for impeachment of Obama, I do think that his behaviour on the world stage is actually quite sufficient to start building a solid case. In other words, people should be keeping a file on what he says and does, for future reference.

He has not brought peace to the world at all. He has not brought hope to the world. He has brought the opposite…. and you only have to look at the response in Russia and North Korea to get my meaning….

The USA is less secure now than under Nixon…….

the Democrats are not rounding up opposition and throwing them in camps, shooting them on the streets, or passing bills granting Obama dictatorial power.

May we please think about that third one? After all, we still don’t know what’s in the “Obamacare” sack of …stuff. You smokers, and people who don’t fit the Metropolitan Life Insurance height/weight guidelines might want to sneak over and check out this link on Drudge;

The poster himself seemed to know a little about whoring around. You missed the point.

Is that what you consider a conservative value?

Bradky on October 18, 2009 at 12:08 AM

Well, I’m not sure if it’s a Conversative value. But one might ask if cheating on your terminally ill wife, having a child with your hoochie-momma and lying your ass off about it to all AMerica are liberal values.

Or do you consider the part where he made plans to be with her after the terminally ill wife died, “liberal values”?

Dave Rywall on October 18, 2009 at 12:59 PM

Looking forward to the upcoming elections, eh? Well, that is when the horse laugh will be on you. ;o)

If we could pull that trick off we would be so much better off than the Democrats, maybe if we banned 500+ accounts a month like another site that is engaged in an open blogwar we could do it.

You won’t bother because it’s way too many of your votes.
And when Palin launches her own little party, the GOP is finished.
You’ll lose 20-30% of the really stupid people who will jump whip over to her and the Dems could then run a toaster oven and win.

As for banning 500+ accounts: Hotair has maybe – MAYBE – 15 or 20 contributors you all hate and would love to ban. So if there are that many being banned over there on the other lefty blogs, then clearly its your side who are doing more of the trolling.

ha ha ha once again the right lets its fringe morons run loose and does nothing to distance itself from them.

I don’t disagree…but there are people who scream “impeachment” for every president. Absent of any provable crime that actually rises to that level, those people remain marginalized kooks.

It just seems to me like a strange topic for this site in particular, or at least Ed, to devote actual time and space to distancing itself from. I would think the simple absence of “impeach Obama” threads here would and should say enough on its own.

The fact remains that there IS a noticable IMPEACH 0bama movement out there/here, and thus it merritts discussion. That discussion needs actual ideas/ideals along with facts to back them up.

Also, Hot Air isn’t America. There is a lot of America out there and ignoring the discussions taking place there is fatal in real time politics.

BTW, can someone please tell me when/how 0bama took control of LGF? [insert 0bamaBot graphic here]
