    Default OK Senator Inhofe talks of the "I Word"

    A senior U.S. senator says Republicans could impeach President Barack Obama over what he is calling a high-level cover up of the administration’s handling of the deadly Benghazi attacks.Senate Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., on a nationally syndicated radio show Thursday accused Obama of overseeing “the most egregious cover up in American history” to avoid potential damage on Election Day.


    As more details about the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, Libya, emerge, Inhofe said “people may be starting to use the ‘I word’ ” before long.
    The host of the show, Rusty Humphries, then asked: “The ‘I word’ meaning impeachment.” Inhofe replied: “Yeah.”


    Republicans on Capitol Hill allege Obama and his top national security aides knew before the two-pronged attack that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans was over that militants linked to al-Qaida were responsible. GOP lawmakers and pundits say there is proof the president and his aides collaborated on a decision to withhold that information in public statements immediately after the attack.


    The reason? Obama was in the homestretch of a re-election campaign, and a major plank of his argument for a second term was a severely weakened al-Qaida.
    “If people thought his Middle East policy was a failure,” that could have altered the results of the November 2012 presidential election, Inhofe said.
    “They didn’t want it to come out at that time,” Inhofe said, referring to Obama and his aides. “Clearly, by definition, a cover up.”

    Of course I don't think the liberal media would allow any articles of impeachment to actually happen, but it's good that the idea is getting floated around in, what I perceive to be, earnest.

    Could we really be that lucky?
    Everything he does has 'Chicago Style Politics' written all over it.

    Please God, I would love to see that POS impeached!

    When CBS, ABC, and now NBC cover Benghazi on the same day, especially going into a talkshow circuit weekend, you know it's not being ignored.

    Add to that the thing about the IRS paying special attention to Tea Party type groups, which has been blamed on "rouge agents". Sounds like plausible deniability to me.

    Add to that the further stepping back of this "red line" or "pink line" or "imaginary line" on action in Syria, and El Jefe is having some trouble, no matter if the DNC or Dem voters want to acknowledge it.

    With regards to impeachment...not going to happen. Someone at State will fall on their sword first.

    To question your government is not unpatriotic — to not question your government is unpatriotic.

    Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.

    But, it's for the children!

    I agree with all of the above save the last sentence. This will cause F&F to be scrutinized again plus a few other tidbits.
    Envision the dam with a small leak. No matter whose finger goes in it another will follow along shortly.
    The whole "Nixon lied, nobody died" notion has some credence here.

    It will become a sound bite, once manchin & toomey reintroduce another UBC law.

    Impeachment? Really? Does no one remember the pointless exercise of Clinton's impeachment? It was a few weeks of political theater and nothing changed. So long as the Dems control the Senate, it's pointless. In fact, it would be used to bludgeon the Republicans as racists in the next election.

    I just don't see it happening, Bert. Holder will "retire" before anything of import happens regarding F&F.

    I reiterate that el presidente is untouchable simply because so many true believers are willing to kill their careers and take the fall...think Scooter Libby.

    It's like a toilet after Taco Bell: a huge stink and a godawful mess, but it still flushes.
