Drudge threw up the flashing blue and red light Friday afternoon — Newt Gingrich said the words “Obama” and “impeachment”. The reaction to it lit a flicker of hope in the hearts of many Americans. That someone with national stature has finally, finally, said aloud what we’ve thinking too: What more does Obama have to do before someone — anyone — takes up impeachment proceedings against him?
In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV Friday, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said President Barack Obama’s decision not to fully enforce the Defense of Marriage law eventually could lead to a constitutional crisis, as he has directly violated his constitutional duties by arbitrarily suspending a law.
Gingrich even suggested that, if a “President Sarah Palin” had taken a similar action, there would have been immediate calls for her impeachment. Asked directly whether President Obama could be subject to articles of impeachment, Gingrich said, “I think that’s something you get to much later. But I think clearly it is a dereliction of duty. Clearly it’s a violation of his constitutional oath. Clearly it is not something that can be allowed to stand.”
Later this evening, a friend urged me to read an article at the American Thinker.
I’m so upset over this. Be sure to read some of the comments too. And please, if you’re concerned as I am, share with your email friends. You will not hear much, if anything, about this on the lamestream media. And write your Congressmen. GradeGov.com is a good site to use.
Richard N. Weltz’ Obama Completes His Trifecta lists several Constitutional violations by Obama and his corrupt Department of Justice under AG Eric Holder. Weltz ends the piece asking, “What are we gonna do about it?”
Notable examples in the scant couple of years The One has been in office include: refusal to enforce voting laws against intimidation at the polls in Chicago, efforts to use the regulatory functions of the EPA to circumvent the specific legislation of Congress to ban cap-and-trade, refusal to enforce immigration laws, and attempts by the FCC to regulate matters banned from its jurisdiction by law.
We need not even mention the undemocratic parliamentary tactics and outright bribery used by Obama and his allies to ram through the unpopular and clearly unconstitutional ObamaCare bill — without it even having been read by most Congress members.
On the judiciary side, we witness the executive ignoring a Federal Court ruling on ObamaCare’s unconstitutionality, the refusal — to the point where an order of compliance had to be issued from the bench — to refrain from imposing an illegal moratorium on oil drilling; and, now the clearest and most blatant power grab of all. Obama has arrogated to himself, in the matter of DOMA, the power to declare that law unconstitutional and order his Justice Department not to contest lawsuits challenging it.
In the meantime, while usurping and/or undercutting the legitimate powers and functions of the other two branches, in the three areas for which the Executive does have power and responsibility — faithfully executing the laws, conducting foreign policy, and commanding the armed forces — this megalomaniacal narcissist has proven a spectacular failure.
What have we allowed to happen to the American concept of separation of powers? Are we abandoning this unique and hallowed concept for a tinpot dictatorship dressed up in a fancy suit and fancy oratory? Where and how do we stop this train to ruination?
The growing public mood to impeach was evident in the comments:
This is a good summary list of charges for impeachment. I believe this President will be impeached. The future of the Democrat party is at stake in 2012. IF the economy dives any further (which it is) and continued Chaos around the world. It will drive Obama’s numbers into the toilet. Throw in the lack of a birth certificate (state verification) and the Democrats will be looking for a way to rid themselves of OBama.
…
What you have described is the case for impeachment – the facts are clear – high crimes and misdemeanors everywhere. Perhaps the readers of AT or members of the Tea Party, or (perish the thought) our elected Republican representatives could start that ball rolling. I don’t know what else this administration needs to do (or fail to do) before someone calls them out very loudly and very publicly! The time to throw PC under the bus has long since passed. I’ve written to my Senators and Congressman – have you? Who’s with me? Let’s roll . . . . . it could make the months leading up to Nov 2012 very interesting.
…
Enough. Time (PAST time) to impeach. So, other than contacting our representatives, how can we stop the lawlessness and get this imposter out?
…
We need someone with guts to challenge this power grab and bring Hussein up on impeachment charges. If anything warranted impeachment, conviction, removal and prosecution, this does!
…
Preferred option: Impeach Obama. Odds of Success: Virtually nil. What else? Boycott all liberal media. Cancel subscriptions to meanstream print media. Drive ratings down on liberal tv media. Liberal media is the fuel of indoctrination for the brain-washed masses. Stop the liberal media. It will jam up the liberal-left momentum.
Uncoverage wrote about it too, with updates:
Update: Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) says Congress will vote to cut or defund the Justice Dept. until it follows the law
Update: Even the liberal MSNBC says Obama’s decision to ignore DOMA is a legal “backfire”
Update: Even the liberal New York Times questions the political wisdom of Obama’s decision

IS Wall Street already operating Under Shariah Law , it has to so it can keep the Arabian Investors invested under their set of Shariah Law rules of Compliance according too Screens for Shari´ah compliance ?? http://www.djindexes.com/islamicmarket/
Is this why we see these kinds of things going on in foreign & economic Relations that threaten USA sovereignty , but We the People get stuck with the DEBTS ??? The citizens of America are supposed to be protected from such people and groups by law. That law, titled the Logan Act, prohibits United States citizens, without the authority of their office, from interfering in relations between the United States and foreign governments .

Do we the people even have a clue as to what we bailout and why ?? This is Important to price the fixed asset markets as well as the reflection on debt allocations and the relationship this accounting would have in dollar valuations allocations . We the people deserve to Know if this is what caused hank Paulson to demand the bailout TARP money , which he first said was for Toxic asset relief , and then switched the bailout to certain Financial Firms that I bet held Arabian Investors who Demanded their holdings be guaranteed 33 % equity solvency or they pull out of Wall Street ??
This is Why the FEDERAL RESERVE needs to be Audited .
Ok , heres another question for the Cronies Capitalism thats failing the US Economic Recovery , Did Hank Paulson switch gears with the TARP on who he bailed out due to these Shariah Law Compliance rules to keep this Fund invested in the US Dow Top 30 ??
http://dailybail.com/home/bloombergs-jonathan-weil-citis-vikram-pandit-may-have-violat.html . I bet the Citi Group and other widely held investments by Arab investors in Wall Street Demanded this 33 % solvency guarantee be put in place or they would pull out their Investments in Wall Street , and so this forced the Federal Reserve to start bailing out these positions up to the point that with fanny and Freddy holding Key asset investment that the Federal Reserve could not bailout without causing major conflicts of Interest in the securities and other asset classes that would have caused major conflicts to rise up in firms across the sector , this forced Bush and Paulson at the Treasury to come to Congress for the Bailout money to then bailout the Firms that held Arab investments and this was why Paulson baited Congress and then switched the bailout , is my opinion .
in your video The Goldman Ex CEO had a cozy relationship with the Arabs , so you got to wonder is this Shariah Law Compliance demand was what caused the economic crisis to unfold ;
http://dailybail.com/home/the-hammer-gets-hit-by-a-tree.html – this talks about Hank Paulson switching TARP funds Allocations .
and in your video here the Official dodges simple questions , is it because of this Arab bailout possibility that forced the Federal Reserve to Cash the Arab Investors a ## % guarantee or Wall Street Loses the Investors from Arabia ?? I bet this is what Happened .
http://dailybail.com/home/there-are-no-words-to-describe-the-following-part-ii.html – This is an interview where the Official responsible for finding out where the Federal Reserve Money is allocated towards has No Idea where any of the funds go , very strange , seems there could be some of the funds went to this Investor group to guarantee their Minimum required 33% solvency rate in any of their holdings don’t you think ?? Read their requirements for Compliance page under
Screens for Shari´ah compliance
In this link Bernanke talks about bailout foreign investors starting in 2007 so maybe this Islamic Board demanded they be secured under Shariah rules they formulated , if so the US Investors have a right to know these things don’t you think ???

Obama just enacted this Executive Order.
This gives him [Obama] a blanket state of National emergency!

I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America,
find that Colonel Muammar Qadhafi, his government, and close
associates have taken extreme measures against the people of
Libya, including by using weapons of war, mercenaries, and
wanton violence against unarmed civilians. I further find
that there is a serious risk that Libyan state assets will be
misappropriated by Qadhafi, members of his government, members
of his family, or his close associates if those assets are not
protected. The foregoing circumstances, the prolonged attacks,
and the increased numbers of Libyans seeking refuge in other
countries from the attacks, have caused a deterioration in the
security of Libya and pose a serious risk to its stability,
thereby constituting an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security and foreign policy of the United States, and
I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.
I agree fully with the premise, however…
The phrase “finally, someone with national stature…” really tightened my jaw.
Hello?!
Someone with national stature has been warning Americans about Obama — and made tangible efforts to block him — YEARS before the 2008 presidential election.
Obama is such a danger to this country that ONE MAN had the foresight to move halfway across the country and take up residence in Chicago for the SPECIFIC PURPOSE of challenging Obama when he first ran for the US Senate. Just think: if conservatives had paid attention in 2004, then there would never have been a Senator Obama to run for president in the 2008 election.
That one brilliant, insightful, purposeful, dedicated American “of national stature” was the man that the Republican Party goes out of its way to ignore: Alan Keyes.
Just think what things might be like now under a President Keyes, who has said for decades that Congress should only pass laws that comply with the Constitution. Click this link for a brief glimpse.

Newt Gingrich has a history of “making nice” with the Democrats. Ask yourself how many of the points in his “Contract with America” actually became law. And, wasn’t Gingrich one of the people who, only a few months ago, was making fun of the “birther” issue?
Alan Keyes has patrolled the border with the Minutemen. Alan Keyes has been arrested for standing firm against tyranny. (Of all places, he — a devout Roman Catholic — was arrested by campus police at Notre Dame for protesting against abortion … when Obama came to speak there!) To paraphrase a song by Barbara Mandrell, he was right before being right was cool. If people had supported Keyes back then, we wouldn’t need to discuss impeaching Obama now.
By the way, Obama might be a lot of things (evil comes to mind), but he is NOT stupid. He has studied the law since his youth. Under the Muslim practice of taq’qiya, he has already demonstrated that he is willing to use our laws against us, and to totally ignore the law when it suits his Muslim-Marxist purpose.
What’s the point of the above paragraph? A person that was never really president in the first place CANNOT be “impeached”. Keyes understands this, which is why he filed the lawsuit YEARS ago to demand Obama’s birth certificate. A phony president cannot be “impeached” from office. He can only be “removed” from office. That requires military force.

It CAN be done. But, who will do it?
My column suggests that the person most likely is wearing a Blue Beret and is posted to safeguard access to Air Force One.
Hmmmmmmmmm.
Sadly, it is way PAST time to consider the impeachment question.
Pray, and buy ammo.
Newt Gingrich is only sounding presidential.He will not lead an impeachment,nor will the average republican politician.It’s all Talk,like Talk Radio,it’s all about therapy,not resolve.
