Clinton got impeached because he lied about it under oath. That was for perjury and obstruction of justice.

Obama maybe lied, but he did not do so under oath. It may make him very dishonest and unlikable, but it doesn't make him a perjurer.

If you want to impeach someone, you need to have an impeachable offense. Just being an a-hole or supporting policies that conservatives (or liberals) don't like is not an impeachable offense.

So until there is an actually impeachable offense...what's the point of this kind of nonsense?

I said "destroying"...not destroyed.

Not better...much, much, much worse!

I'd love to see the look on the judges face and his ensuing statement after you submitted this as your evidence for the impeachment of the duly elected President of the USA.

There are many reasons upon which he could be impeached. The question is only, "Would we want to?" How much do you like Joe Biden?
I like Joe. Joe will make sure that the Republicans won't "put y'all back in chains".

Uh-huh. Why don't you ask those 5,000,000 people and counting about how they feel about losing their policies after Obama lied.

Like Rich Lowry said in the Politico - "Obama’s promise on insurance wasn’t just injudicious, it was completely impossible. It wasn’t an incidental falsehood but ran counter to the central premise of his own health care law. People losing their current insurance isn’t an unintended consequence of the law; it is an intended consequence without which much of the law doesn’t work."

Everything about the ACA was a baldfaced lie, and Obama knew it. And you folks are comfortable with that too, aren't you? The ends justifies the means and all that, eh?
