Despite his claim that "no one would ever lose their insurance", the exact opposite is happening.

So why hasn't anyone impeached him yet? His only defense is "I didn't know about it", well that seems to be the case with him and his administration all the time now. Makes me wonder how someone can be in such a powerful position and yet not be aware of important things happening around you. It makes no sense.

The sooner Obama is gone, the better.
Go for it.

Let's see...The Soviet Union had Siberia, ..we have, ah...Alaska.

The only explanation I can think of for a lot of stuff going on/not going on in Washington these days. I honestly think that Boehner has a real phobia for cold and snow (and has read history books).

Heres the thing-Obama reasonably believed that the grandfathered plans would not be cancelled by the insurance companies. A lot of people thought they might hesitate to throw their folks into the exchange because they were a captured market. But really they don't want the overhead of managing a lot of plans, so the insurance companies cancelled them.

And finally, if lying was impeachable, no politician would be in office longer then a month. Name one Republican or Democratic politician that hasn't lied or been mistaken.

Apparently this needs to be made into another faux horrible thing. Sigh.

Oh, please try to impeach Obama!
That will cast the Republican party down in the the deepest regions of hell for the next 20 years.
Proceed at full speed. The sooner the big conservative purge happens, the better it is for all of us.

Clinton was impeached for violating the provision of his oath of office in which he promised that he would never have oral sex.

Wait, what? There is no such provision? Then there must have been some other reason, but the Republican liars who made it up have never been able to convince the vast majority of the American people what it was.

I don't usually make a practice of telling other political parties what to do, but if you are determined to impeach President Obama, I encourage, I beseech you to do so! I'm sure that will work out really well for the Republicans.

Actually, I think a great many people know that Clinton was impeached for perjury.
That is, lying under oath.

For reference purposes, see The United States Constitution, Article II Section 4.

Yes, perjury, obstructing justice and witness tampering.

It's up to Congress to determine the nature of impeachment.

Too bad we never had an opportunity to see Reagan explain his story under oath evidently lying about an affair is more important than illegal arms trade.
