US House speaker says he disagrees with calls to impeach Obama
2014-07-10
[Iran Press TV] US House Speaker John It is not pronounced 'Boner!' Boehner
... the occasionally weepy leader of House Republicans...
says he doesn't support calls from his fellow Republican politicians to impeach President Barack Obama
My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it...

Of course John Boehner disagrees. The votes aren't there. The votes might not be there in the House and they certainly aren't there in the Senate.

Sarah is a treasure, but she's forgetting the first responsibility of an elected politician -- know how to count, whether it's to 50% plus one or to 2/3s. Boehner can count, that's how he made it to Speaker (it sure wasn't his leadership skills).

There will be no impeachment of Obama because the votes are not and will not be there. So Boehner is trying to capitalize on discontent with lawsuits and other nonsense.

If I were him and I were counting, I'd see whether I could get the votes to impeach the IRS commissioner and send THAT to Harry Reid in, say, September...
Speaking to news hounds on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, Boehner was asked about former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Mama Grizzly Palin
... the babe libs love to hate ...
's assertion that House Republicans should impeach Obama over the influx of child migrants crossing the US border without documents. Boehner responded by simply saying, "I disagree."

Boehner repeated those words in response to a follow-up question about some members of the House privately demanding Obama's impeachment.

On Tuesday, Sarah Palin called for Obama's impeachment over his handling of the growing immigration crisis.

"The many impeachable offenses of Barack Obama can no longer be ignored," Palin said in an op-ed published in Breitbart News. "If after all this he's not impeachable, then no one is."

The 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee wrote that Obama's "unsecured border crisis is the last straw" and asked politicians to evict him from the White House.
