Axelrod: Talk of Impeachment 'Virus that Needs to be Curbed'
2013-08-24
[NATIONALREVIEW] David Axelrod lashed out against Republican senator Tom Coburn for suggesting that President Obama is nearing a Constitutional crisis and potential impeachment, calling Coburn's remarks "way out of bounds."

"He speaks to a kind of virus that has infected our politics that really has to be curbed," Axelrod said, mockingly referring to Coburn's suggestion as "his considered legal opinion as an obstetrician."

At a townhall meeting this week, the Oklahoma senator told an audience that President Obama was "getting perilously close" to meeting the standards for impeachment.
Ah, the Democrats -- they'll always, always tell you what they fear most by attacking it...

#6  IMHO he has already met the constitutional specifications for impeachment. Several times over.

If Obama was white Republican he would have already been impeached.

Unfortunately since he is 'black' Democrat he will be out of office, before he can be impeached.

Save your energies for 2014 and 2016.

I grieve for my country.

MH, couple of small edits showing more reasons for nonimpeachment.

#5  Mr. "Talking Points" Axelrod picked up on the Donk game of "Preparing the Battlefield" being played against them, nervous as the won's pop numbers continue to drop. Any different than 'talking up' Obamacare, amnesty, etc?

#2  SARS - Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome as reached the American political arena. Due to the potential seriousness and possiblity of impeachment proceedings following the 2014 elections for Congress, a pre-emptive commentary balloon has been launched by a former political czar in the Obama Administration.

Alexrod get use to the czar's sars, a lot of you are going to get very sick after 2014...

#1  IMHO what they fear is not so much impeachment in the House, but the loss of votes they could suffer from all the dirt that would come out in the hearings just before the off year election and the impetus it could give to the growing interest in Levin's state called Constitutional Convention. Lots of Democrat power could go down the drain.
