GOHMERT! In Which Louie Is “Astounded” Americans Aren’t “Demanding Impeachment” of Obama

What’s wrong with you people?

The Gohmert hosted the Family Research Council’s “Washington Watch” program last night, and got a call from someone who was very concerned President Obama would go ahead with the Iran deal even if Congress rejected it. This crazed caller wanted to know if the Gohmert would lead a charge to impeach Obama in that case. But alas, Louie sounded rather depressed about the prospects of an impeachment, because the American people are letting him down and not demanding it.

“I’ve been astounded that more of the country has not been demanding impeachment already,” he added, “but it hasn’t, and until over half the country wants to see it, there’s no use bringing it up, nothing will happen, it will gum up all the works, we won’t be able to even talk about how devastating this Iran deal is for mankind.”

GOHMERT! must be astounded by a good many things on a daily basis.

Like, for example, how shoes are tied.

I want the Republicans to try and impeach President Obama. It would make my day (and really help the Democrats).

“It’s truly astounding and confounding. Everybody I do radio shows with wants him impeached. Everyone I meet at my fund-raisers wants an impeachment. All my friends want him impeached.”

I haven’t yet heard a conservative anti-Iran deal hardliner explain how they would strong-arm China, France, Russia, Germany and the UK into sanctions if they kill this deal.

He’s claiming that the university fired him without due process under the police contract. A hearing had not been done prior to the termination.

He’s got a point. They didn’t follow procedure - which seems to be typical for the police department there. One more reason to shut down the department entirely.

I forgot to mention that this animal is - or was - a beloved national treasure to that nation. Sorta like killing Laasie.

And, apparently, the way of the wild is the new pride male will kill Cecil’s offspring. Hopefully the nation’s wildlife people can intercede, if that’s even possible.

re: #37 Lidane

The federal budget is $3.8 trillion. Between Title X and Medicaid, Planned Parenthood gets about $540 million in federal funding. That means the GOP is threatening to shut down the government over 0.014% of the budget. That’s almost as impressive as refusing to pay your rent because your roommate spent two bucks on a coke.

I have actually watched some of my conservative friends damn near come to blows online over the PP story. I had a Republican female friend unfriend another mutual friend (and honestly, I’m about to ditch him too) because he’s a hyper-religious wingnut and a vocal Ted Cruz supporter who’s been pulling the HURR HURR LIBRULS CARE ABOUT ANIMALS AND NOT BAYBEEZ line for days now. She got so angry about the bullshit she was seeing from other people she knew that she thought were reasonable conservatives that she’s blocked those people and deleted her Facebook and gone over to Tumblr for a while just to clear her head.

This story is not just along partisan lines. The folks I know who are passionate about medical research for various issues are not toeing the wingnut line about Planned Parenthood. It’s not as cut and dried as the GOP candidates want to think it is.

He lived on a sanctuary/reserve, he wore tags and a tracking collar because he’s part of a breeding program and a scientific study, he’s a photographer’s model and the Tourist Board’s mascot. They sell plushy-Cecils in gift shops. He’s the whole country’s special favorite lion.

Pathology reports and tests done on tissue samples will undoubtedly be considered “icky”.

But apparently some tissue counts more than other tissue because it is icky and imbued with special rights/responsibilities that a woman is not.

Pathology reports and tests done on tissue samples will undoubtedly be considered “icky”.

Plastic surgery is “icky”.

But apparently some tissue counts more than other tissue because it is icky and imbued with special rights/responsibilities that a woman is not.

Note also that you actually CAN sell tissues and such from The Born for profit.

Got a job offer from that IT place. $16 an hour. Full benes.

I mentioned that I don’t drive and it’ll take me about a week or two to get my license.

Long story short, I was supposed to be filtered out and not even get interviewed in the first place.

They rescinded the offer.

Oh, and apparently my deadline for appealing unemployment was day before yesterday — 4 weeks from termination, not 4 weeks from the decision. Still mailed it off, but I honestly didn’t think I would get it anyway, so…

I think I need a drink.

Here we have a GOP presidential candidate making noises about calling out the troops to prevent abortions by force. With bonus points for openly defying SCOTUS.

There can no longer be any doubt that the Republic of Gilead from The Handmaid’s Tale is a so-con utopia.

I want the Republicans to try and impeach President Obama. It would make my day (and really help the Democrats).

Not worth the effort for the brief time he has left in office, best to move on towards impeaching Hillar, and best to get started before she even gets elected

The media frenzy over Hillary’s email has to be the biggest nothingburger of the year.

2:46 PM - 31 Jul 2015

And it should be one of the most embarrassing non-stories the New York Times has ever published, but even they seem truly incapable of really admitting they screwed up. The apology was just a dance around their buying into a ‘gotcha’ and they closed that out with a bit about all the bad stuff that seems to follow around Hillary.

Crappy yellow journalism from a once proud source.

Add in the BS they let a reporter feed everyone about “weapons of mass destruction” and the Times is dead to me.

It is worth noting that the one and only reason the GOP does not impeach Obama is that they don’t have 2/3 GOP in the Senate to convict on a party-line vote.

The fact that Obama hasn’t actually committed anything approaching a ‘high crime or misdemeanor’ is completely irrelevant.

This should be a question at the debates: Governor Huckabee has indicated that he would use federal troops to stop the practice of legal abortions in the United States. Tell us, what other things would you use federal troops to stop? Gay Pride Parades? Same Sex Marriages? Jaywalking? The public practice of Islam, Judaism, and Hinduism? The use of marijuana?

MELVILLE N.Y., July 30, 2015 - Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today has introduced the Company’s first multi-purpose camera, the new ME20F-SH, which delivers exceptionally high sensitivity to capture Full HD video with a minimum subject illumination of less than 0.0005 lux1 (at maximum 75 dB gain setting, equivalent to an ISO sensitivity of over 4,000,000).

…

Price: $30,000

At first I was like, wow cool. Then I was like, HAHAHA who is this even being marketed to? At a max resolution of 1080p this is a niche camera for wealthy YouTubers shooting faux documentary horror in abandoned coal mines.

How ‘Assembly-Line Justice’ Victimizes Kids In St. Louis County

huffingtonpost.com?

In a 61-page report released publicly on Friday, federal authorities found that race “in and of itself” played a “significant” role in how children were treated in the county courts. Black youths were much less likely than whites to have their cases handled informally. Black children were 2.5 times more likely than whites to be detained before trial, regardless of their age or the severity of their alleged offense. Black adolescents were nearly three times as likely as whites to be placed in custody if they violated the conditions of the equivalent of parole. And black kids were 2.74 times more likely than whites to be sentenced to be placed in custody, “even after controlling for age, gender, risk factors, and the severity of the allegations involved.”

Almost certainly, IMO. From the RWNJ point of view, the PP videos are evidence of trafficking in body parts of murdered babies. The pressure on GOPers in Congress, and on the 2016 GOP candidates, for ‘toughness’ on this issue will be immense.

Huckabee’s statement seems likely to find imitators sooner rather than later.

The GOP is billionaire v. billionaire by proxy (plus Trump).

Billionaires are busy lining up behind various GOP proxies, and that’s the only reason this field is as large as it is. And without those billionaires, a few of the proxies wouldn’t even be in the race at this point.

So, he’s proposing to ignore the Supreme Court’s rulings, and deploy Federal troops within the borders of the United States, to stop a legal activity that the majority of Americans still believe should be legal in most or all cases?

I hope Huckabee is not really so ignorant as to actually believe that he could order federal troops to shut down abortion clinics. From the chief of staff to the lowliest private, they would simply tell him to fuck off.

Maybe he intends to call for volunteers and mobilize a new “army” for this, essentially giving presidential approval to mobs of crazed vigilantes. I hope he isn’t that crazy but these ass-clowns continue to surprise even hardened observers with just how crazy and ruthless they can be.
