This is the 14th TIME the R's are screaming for impeachment. They started right after Obama was elected because he was a "MOOSLIM" and "born in Kenya", and it's gone downhill from there.

The problem the current batch of R's have is that when you scream and cry and whine nonstop--every little thing is histrionics--nobody listens or takes you seriously anymore. It's just more BS in and out. I'd be careful with this one though--if voters believe that you guys are trying to use the deaths of American citizens for some kind of political campaign stunt, this may be the one that really does blow up in your face.
And how many times have R's filed? ZERO..

Actually that sounds more realistic to me since one of them (cheney) made money from the War that he obviously help pushed. My probelm with Bush has been his falsifying his military records.

There’s no doubt that people will start using the “the I-word” around Benghazi considering they’ve already invoked impeachment so, so, so many other times.

“Impeach Obama! Again!” - Salon.com

What follows is a list of at least 14 times since Obama has taken office that Conservatives have invoked impeachment. More serious than selling arms to Iran to fund contra rebels in Nicaragua? Seriously?

I expect this thread to draw the usual hysteria from the far right, but there must be some sane Republicans here (or is that merely wishful thinking on my part?). When do you start to get embarrassed by how ridiculous the GOP has become and attempt to inject some sanity into the party? Or have all sane Republicans already fled the party? It sure seems like it.
We are not allowed to call terrorist, terriost......Al Qaeda references were deleted from the Benghazi files and President Obama went behind Congress and sent money to "Rebels."

Who are the "Rebels"?

Do you feel comfortable with this?

So some talk show host or a newspaper columnist speaking about possible impeachable offenses amounts to conservatives invoking impeachment? IBTL.

Here's another good old knee slapper:

Quote:
Libya: Bruce Fein, a lawyer who has written articles of impeachments against Clinton, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, did the same for Obama in 2011 over the military intervention in Libya, alleging that it violated the Constitution’s mandate that only Congress can declare war.
This of course equates to Conservatives invoking impeachment!

When do you start to get embarrassed by BHO, who is the most inept and incompetent POTUS of all time? The beer summit is when that started for me. How about you?

Voted for Gary Johnson. Republican fans didn't know about him because Romney spent all his time trying to remove him for ballots.

Ok, I like this game. So how many were killed because the Iraq War? OOH, OOH, OOH <waving hand fantically> better yet, how many are still filing VA disabilty claims because of the Iraq War?

4) Providing information to the public that turns out to be inaccurate and maybe failing to send in extra support and security (mind you, there would have been more support there in the first place had Republicans not refused to fund it).
5) Having an affair and lying about it.

It's telling that you think those last two are awful, but are totally willing to overlook the first three.

Even the worst case scenario I've heard from Republicans about Benghazi pales in comparison to actively funding and encouraging the murder, rape, and torture of civilians.
You forgot authorizing the "outing" of an active CIA agent and lying about it
