Matthews: You said that if the President of the United States had launched an attack on Iran without congressional approval that would have been an impeachable offense. Do you want to review that comment you made? Well how do you stand on that now?
Biden:Yes I do. I want to stand by the comment I made. The reason I made the comment was as a warning. I don't say those things lightly, Chris, you've known me for a long time. I was chairman of the judiciary committee for 17 years or its ranking member. I teach separation of powers and constitutional law. This is something I know. So I got together and brought a group of constitutional scholars together to write a piece that I'm going to deliver to the whole United State Senate pointing out the President has no constitutional authority...to take this nation to war against a county of 70 million people unless we're attacked or unless there is proof we are about to be attacked. And if he does, if he does, I would move to impeach him. The House obviously has to do that but I would lead an effort to impeach him. The reason for my doing that, I don't say it lightly, I don't say it lightly. I say it because they should understand that what they were threatening, what they were saying, what it was adding up to be, what it looked like to the rest of the world we were about to do would be the most disastrous thing that could be done in this moment in our history that I could think of.
Well Biden didn't push for impeachment when Obama broke the law twice on Libya. Once by avoiding congress to do strikes and a second time when he avoided congress after the 60 day war powers act limit.
Obama is an extremely disingenuous politician that is constantly lying, distorting, telling half truths and the like.
Here is Biden arguing how striking a country militarily that is not an imminent threat to the US without congress is impeachable.
The United States has no long since drew its greedy hands out over the world and now every event over the globe is linked to its interests. Its as if the U.S has two heads, one looking at itself and the other everywhere else

Carney spoke to the press and said that not attacking Syria over these chemical weapons would be a national security threat to the US.
A reporter asked him if he was insinuating that Syria would attack the US with chemical weapons.
Carney backed off and said it was a serious threat if we didn't act.
I know he stays hidden nowadays, but I want someone to find that moron and ask him this question. And when he gets mad, then have a audio player to play his old quote in front of him. His reaction would be awesome to see.

I don't like Obama but I must say all politicians are acting like this. Otherwise, they won't move forward in their career. The whole world is already bogged down in their lies and criminal irresponsibility.
