"Make no mistake. We're now in the middle of a bloodless coup – the takeover of an entire nation by the hate-America crowd – a cold-blooded gang that despises America's prosperity, our standing in the world, our trust in God and our generosity and goodness," says Willie Horton ad creator Floyd Brown a post on the new Impeach Obama Campaign website
Willie Horton is iconic to the political right and left. The ad featuring his picture is considered an example of racist campaign hate speech even leading to a deathbed apology from George H. W. Bush campaign head Lee Atwater for the ‘naked cruelty’ of the Bush campaign. Floyd Brown created the ad and is in no mood to apologize; if anything he continues to profit for his reputation as a no-hold’s barred provocateur.
In the WorldNetDaily column that he shares with his R.N. wife he calls for Obama’s impeachment. He explains that an impeachable offense is whatever Congress says it is without regard for the standard of what are usually considered high crimes and misdemeanors.
But has Barack Obama committed an impeachable offense? What exactly constitutes an impeachable offense? Former President Gerald Ford, while serving in the House of Representatives, said an impeachable offense was "whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history."
Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution reads: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
The key phrase here is "high crimes and misdemeanors," a concept in English common law well-known to our Founding Fathers, but grossly misunderstood in this day and age. "High crimes and misdemeanors" essentially means bad behavior.
He further asserts this is not about politics:
In other words, "high crimes and misdemeanors" does not refer to a criminal act. Our Founding Fathers fully intended to allow for the removal of the president for actions which include: gross incompetence, negligence and distasteful behavior.
For those who mistakenly hold the illusion that impeaching Barack Hussein Obama would be a simple matter of "playing politics," the founders fully intended that the impeachment of a sitting president be a political act.
Right wing talker Tammy Bruce agrees: "Ultimately, it comes down to ... the fact that he seems to have, it seems to me, some malevolence toward this country, which is unabated."
