If Clinton "I did not have sexual relations" wasn't successfully impeached, BHO won't be either.
He was impeached. He was not convicted. Impeachment is the act of bringing charges against the President, not convicting him of them.

OK.ok.. I was not exactly correct in my lingo... but you got my point yes?

Clinton was impeached for perjury and obstruction, but was not convicted.
IMO, conviction in that case would equal "successfully".
Y'all sure do enjoy hair splitting.. :smilelol5:

Similarly, BHO may be charged with something stemming from fraudulent/records-manipulation birth certificate (long form) or whatever, but will he be convicted? Of course not.... He'll claim that someone else did the deed and he had no knowledge. In the mean time, the real issues will be obscured by the media feeding frenzy.

The GOP needs to win on the issues. Guilty or not of anything, BHO needs to go down on his lack of Presidential merits.

Impeachment/conviction/removal would present some interesting results.

President Joe Biden

Vice President John Boehner

Biden is a buffoon, and I would think it unlikely he could accomplish much, especially with a GOP held house.

Obama is many things, but buffoonish is not one of them. He's just flat dangerous. Dangerous for our economy, and dangerous for our country.

Obama isn't the problem, he's a symptom of the problem. Our real problem is the people who support him. Check out this Gallup poll: http://www.gallup.com/poll/147881/Ameri ... ealth.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

About half of the people in this country are collectivists and want to "equalize economic outcomes." So half the country isn't satisfied with the opportunity to succeed, they want the government to guarantee some measure of their success at the expense of someone else. 70% of the democrats surveyed are for government redistribution of wealth. Even more disturbing is that 28% of republicans feel the same way.

The poll says the survey results haven't changed much in the past four years. While I'm all for replacing Obama, it ultimately isn't going to matter much if we can't reverse the collectivist tide --a difficult proposition since they control the schools and the media.

Boehner would not become VP if this did happen againg a big if Biden would be able to select his own VP. I think you are thinking about the line of seccison which would only apply to Boeher if both Obama and Biden were removed from office.

So we could be stuck with a Biden/Pelosi ticket??


Long live Obama.

I'll point out here that Nixon didn't "do the deed" with the burglary at the Watergate Hotel, nor did he have any prior knowledge of it. He did, however, participate in a coverup of the crime.

Even if Obama had no knowledge of forging a birth certificate and inserting it into the official Hawaii records, by displaying said certificate on the White House web site and/or not denouncing it after its release would amount to conspiracy, just as Watergate was a conspiracy.

Am I enamored at the prospect of a President Biden? Absolutely not. I've always felt that Obama selected Biden as his VP to be a life insurance policy of sorts. However, I'm less enamored at having someone in the White House who, either by action or omission, commits or covers up something as serious as the falsification of official government records. We vilify Nixon for covering up a break-in of the Democrat headquarters by his party's operatives; I say covering up forged government documents inserted into official government records is worse.

That doesn't even begin to touch the question of why the birth certificate would need to be forged and inserted into the record books in the first place, if this allegation proves to be true.

My source, whom I believe to be quite reliable and not given to spreading rumors, says names will be revealed.
Any update?

I've been out of the loop due to moving... but I'm also wondering if there's an update.

There is no update because there is no story, just more wishful thinking...

Here's an update: Still no birth certificate

But I did see something from Columbia College where he registered as an Indonesian student.
