It’s surprisingly difficult. Should we:
- Ignore it completely as being the political equivalent of the Democrats trying to restart a man’s heart, only using a car battery?
- Tell them flat-out no (this is what I think that Byron York wants us to do)?
- Tell them flat-out no, then point and laugh?
Note that I’m not at all on the impeachment bandwagon. Barack Obama would love to have it happen, it won’t actually work, if it did work we’d just have Joe Biden as President, and – most importantly – I told myself back in 2009 that I wouldn’t let Barack Obama get into my goram head the way that George W Bush got into the Left’s. Obama will finish up his term in January 2017. He’ll get away with all of it. I have already accepted* that, which means that I can do other things. Like getting ready to help repair the damage that that fumble-fingered nincompoop with delusions of adequacy did to the American economy.
I’m not telling anybody what to do, here. But – to paraphrase the Klingons – I’m a big fan about not fighting in burning buildings.

*:shrug: Sure, you can say that I’ve given up. Whatever keeps you going, folks.
I would love to impeach Obama, but what then? The Senate isn’t going to remove Obama and we have wasted everyone’s time.
.
I think we should just point and laugh derisively.
I would love to see Obama stand trial.

I am not interested in another Clintonian exercise in political theater, even though these idiots could *never* pull off what Bubba did.

Besides, even if we were able to removed Obama and Biden from office, Sen Patrick Leahy becomes POTUS. Who wants that to happen?
It would have the marginal advantage of removing Leaky from the Senate …

The statistical chance of impeachment working is zero.
There is no point in doing it, all it would do is create Obama into a sort of political martyr. Which would make undoing his damage all the harder.
I’m for impeachment, but for Eric Holder. As a practical matter, if we can’t impeach and convict Holder, we sure can’t impeach and convict Obama.
I would love to impeach him, if it had the chance of a snowball in hell, but it doesn’t. Pointing and laughing sounds like a decent second choice. My only caveat is that by the time he is out of office, we’re going to be dealing with a country so seriously damaged that I’m not sure it can ever be put together again. I, at least, will not live to see it repaired. It will take more decades than I have left, but to know that it will have the chance will have to suffice.
Let him wallow in his failure for the next two years.
I am reminded of Princess Bride.

Let it be to the pain.

Leave his perfect ears, so that they can ring with the sound of our derisive laughter.

Tell the MSM that impeachment is not an option as long as Democrats vote for their party over their country.
pretty much this, sadly.
Derisive laughter is the only response that makes the any sense.
Following the example of Dear Leader, we lead from behind, and invite Nancy to introduce the articles of impeachment. Until then, we have better things to do, like 6+ Senate seats.
We didn’t believe what we were hearing back when Stepholopogus or whatever his name was started in on Romney at the debate about how he would ban birth control, which was a complete out-of-the-blue made-up theme at that time, and we laughed and pointed and then they just kept right on repeating the entire lie and before you knew it, we had this war on women thing.
We waaaaay overestimated the intelligence of that particular demographic that time. We probably shouldn’t give them another freebie.
