A few years ago, many of us predicted when our Heroic Men & Women returned from the wars, some would enter COngress where they could give voice to their objections of the failed leaderrship  of the last six years. It's no secret that Obama is dispised by our troops, but they are professional enough to remain loyal to the office of the Commander-in-Chief while they are on active service. 

Rep. Zinke is a former Navy Seal and Mission Commander of Seal Team Six.  I expect he would flinch when it comes to doing the work we all need done in Washington!  I expect we'll hear much more from him, as well!

Let's hope these people start calling Obama out. There is much proof of incompetence and sheer hate for America that has not been revealed yet.

While I voted for Zinke, I did so with some reservations that he might be just another establishment republican. Unfortunately the first choice of TEA, Matt Rosendale, was narrowly defeated by Zinke in the primary. OTOH, much of the rhetoric against Zinke that had me in trepidation was rather easily debunked as lies. His voting record in the Montana Legislature is pretty good, with only a few votes I disagreed with on relatively minor issues. I guess my biggest problem with Zinke was how he presented himself. I am fully respectful of his military background, but as we all know, (McCain, Carter, etc.) military experience does not automatically equate to a constitutional minded legislator.

I am not a fan of Obozo, his politics, or his policies and agenda's..

But sadly, Obozo's obvious hate for American value's and his love of socialism are not a Constitutionally recognized reason for his impeachment and removal from office.

Unless somehow it can be demonstrated that this hate for America rises to the level of a high crime or misdemeanor. Say for example because Obozo hates American values so much, he commits an act of treason so he can give aid or comfort to Isis. Then Congress would have legal authority to impeach and remove Obozo making Biden President instead.

As for his incompetence that too must rise to the level of a high crime or misdemeanor. Personally I don't think he's "incompetent" I think those instances where it's been portrayed as "incompetence" were in fact not incompetence but intentional. In order to attack our Constitutional rights, and further Obozo and his merry band of clowns liberal agenda. But this too is not listed "technically" as a reason for impeachment  and or censure and removal from office.

As I said I"m no fan of Obozo, his agenda, or his political policy and belief.

But I am a fan of doing things legally, according to the Constitution.

Just because Obozo is a clown, just because he's now "disliked" like it or not this clown is our President now.

Elections have consequences. If you want this President impeached and removed from office fine. Let your representatives know.

So they then can impeach Obozo for his High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

And there are several legally recognized High Crimes and Misdemeanors to impeach Obozo for.

Ranging from trying to implement amnesty for illegals by decree, fiat, "executive order". To Obozo's illegal use of the IRS to harass political opponents.

To Obozo's misconduct as CnC when he refused too, and failed too, protect and defend the Embassy in Benghazi.

Impeachment is out, regardless of the crimes the Bamster has committed.  Assuming they manage to vote for impeachment in the House, it will take 67 Senators to convict in the Senate. And you can bet that not only will there be zero votes from democratic senators, there will be less than 54 republican votes.

But congressional members can still call Obama out politically. Assuming they have the stones. I'll be very interested to see just how establishment Zinke is. Will he add his voice to the true conservative movement? Or is he there to empower the republican party at the cost of the People?

I basically agree that it's a waste of time to pursue impeachment, given that the dems will always get in the way, especially Holder / successor who would bottle it up in court somehow, even if everybody voted to impeach.

But part of me does want to see an impeachment for, say, the Bergdahl fiasco  ?

There would be no way to shade that away from the details, if it was laid out in an impeachment.

Why do we keep hearing this crap about the Senate? That is not how impeachment works. Please read this sometime: http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html

I think it has been pretty clearly established that Richard Nixon did not know or authorize the Whitewater breakin, but when he found out about it, he committed high crimes & misdemeanors by his participation in the cover up.  Benghazi has the potential for some of the same High Crimes & Misdemeanors that came out of the Whitewater scandal; so doesn't the use of the IRS to chill and supress his political opposition in the last election (don't forget the actions of the NSA and now his overreach with Amnesty).  The question with Nixon came to be; what did the President know and when did he know it.  Granted, the media were out to get Nixon, while they are protecting and enabling Obama, but why do you suppose they are threatening Gen. Patreus with (possible) prosecution, at this time?

Impeachment is an empty act if the votes to convict and remove from office are not there in the senate. We learned that lesson from Clinton in the 90's.

I don't know ho old you are, but I remember the Watergate Hearings.  They went on for two years and right up to the end, Nixon was not touched; untill Alexander Butterfield revealed the unknown Oval Office recordings (tapes).  Nixon was going to fight his fight in the Senate, until his own party's Leadership, led by Barry Gorldwater, told him to resign or he would be found guilty (meaning enough Republicans would vote with the Democrats).  Many Republicans believed in what Nixon said until they saw he had been lying to them, too.  A few Democrats might vome to te same conclusion ...and all we need is a few!

What would be necessary is what was necessary in Watergate; information that the American people and the world would see that exposed the President of the United States, as a criminal, beyond the shadow of any doubt (and the ability of spin Miesters to hide the truth)

I do remember the Watergate hearings. The difference I see today compared to then is democrats will circle the wagon and "stand by their man". Republicans convinced Nixon to resign.

I think the Republican politicians were (are) not all that different from Democrats politicians.  In fact, today's 24 hr. media and focus groups and poliing creates pressure on pragmatic professional politicians to flip and flog with public opinion, even more than in the days of Watergate.  There are many Democrat Senators who have no love for Obama after the way he's used and abused them..and as much as Obama is consumed by his own ego, many of them are just as narcissistic. 

Individual Democrats would not fall on their swords en masse to save this self styled Emperor.  We only need a few individuals who feel like screwing him for whatever reason!  (I doubt any would do it for Patriotism or Love of Country; but revenge (pay back)...Oh yeah! (especially if they think the Sheeple will take it as "patriotism for the good of the country:.  In their minds, this might give them a shot at the Whitehouse, after the Republicans inherit Obama's mess and fail to clean it up!

Look back at these two issues. Clinton's Impeachment hearings, as well as the Watergate investigations..
Both took more time to come to fruition than the Marxist has left in his final term in office.
Way too much time would be consumed, when it could be put to good use undoing the damage the Marxist inflicted upon the nation.
