Shenanigans with this President. We will see President Obama getting on the helicopter in January 2017 after breakfast with the new President. That I am 100 percent confident in saying.

He's had a Democratic Senate--Reid blocked a lot of looney bills Wella Nov 2014 #7

I agree that vetoes will have to happen Art_from_Ark Nov 2014 #14

... 99Forever Nov 2014 #36

Most will. There will be a few who back stab him like they did Clinton. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #38

All 45 Democrats in the Senate voted not guilty. former9thward Nov 2014 #43

Russ Feingold voted not to dismiss the charge wyldwolf Nov 2014 #46

Feingold man of principle and integrity karynnj Nov 2014 #85

If his 'principles' told him Clinton should be impeached and removed, he was an idiot wyldwolf Nov 2014 #86

Feinstein's censure was not voted on before the impeachment votes - karynnj Nov 2014 #88

So? Your defense of Feingold's actions shows your approval of that GOP circus wyldwolf Nov 2014 #89

No - it shows that he felt the process should be respected and there be a trial karynnj Nov 2014 #90

It shows he approved of the process and the reasoning wyldwolf Nov 2014 #92

First of all it would not have been a coup - even if Clinton were kicked out karynnj Nov 2014 #93

And I'll bet if Obama is impeached, you'll be for that, too wyldwolf Nov 2014 #95

Grow up and learn to read. Nowhere did I say I was for impeaching Clinton (nor in fact was Feingold karynnj Nov 2014 #96

By his actions and words, and by yours wyldwolf Nov 2014 #98

Not true to anyone that does not worship the all wonderful and completely innocent Bill Clinton karynnj Nov 2014 #99

completely true. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #100

Why then did Feingold vote "no" on both charges? karynnj Nov 2014 #101

Here's a word 'progressives' like to throw around: 'enabler.' wyldwolf Nov 2014 #102

Two can play at this game - Why are you so proud of Clinton's actions here karynnj Nov 2014 #115

There is no game your hero Feingold was a GOP enabler wyldwolf Nov 2014 #117

Feingold was never my hero, though I do respect him karynnj Nov 2014 #118

there was no perjury conviction. Fiengold, your hero, failed. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #119

You know why there were no perjury conviction. Clinton essentially took a plea bargain karynnj Nov 2014 #129

there was no perjury conviction. Fiengold's Judas maneuvers failed. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #130

Clinton issued a statement that his comments were false -- which is admitting he lied under oath karynnj Nov 2014 #133

In order to avoid prosecution by the GOP witchhunters (of which Feingold was an ally) wyldwolf Nov 2014 #134

No, to avoid being charged in a court of law for something that had become blatantly obvious karynnj Nov 2014 #135

that's what prosecution is. And it would have been done by GOP Witchhunters and Feingold. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #136

Bill Clinton lied under oath = perjury - get used to it It is fact. karynnj Nov 2014 #137

Perjury is a legal term. Clinton was not convicted. Fiengold cried . wyldwolf Nov 2014 #138

On his last day in office, Clinton plea bargained a deal Yupster Nov 2014 #140

But wasn't convicted, despite good old Russ's best efforts. wyldwolf Nov 2014 #141

The only people talking about impeachment are posters on DU. former9thward Nov 2014 #39

RW pundits and politicians are talking about it AgingAmerican Nov 2014 #42

RW 'pundits' talk about a lot of things. former9thward Nov 2014 #44

But that's how it usually starts AgingAmerican Nov 2014 #45

Joni Ernst has advocated impeachment and she is not the only one Bjorn Against Nov 2014 #55

I do know what I am talking about. former9thward Nov 2014 #60

She has been elected Senator Bjorn Against Nov 2014 #65

Well I would love to be able to make a bet with those who say there will be an impeachment. former9thward Nov 2014 #68

It's the most popular word on Fox n/t doc03 Nov 2014 #57

If they don't back him it will destroy the democratic party. B Calm Nov 2014 #75

I can't see why the Republicans want to impeach him, given that it would just result in Biden being LeftishBrit Nov 2014 #79
