How dare these Democrats keep talking about impeachment!

No, there are Democrats who are actively pushing the idea that the GOP wants to impeach Obama. I think they are being smart to push it. I’d prefer they impeach ahead of the election, but having people run on the idea is almost as good.

The Democrats might have a shot at taking the House.

Then the follow-up question is “So the Emancipation Proclamation was wrong? or was that a trivial Executive Order?”

I didn’t say Dems weren’t talking about it. But for the past few weeks, we’ve heard GOP operatives say that the “I-word” talk was all a plot by the Democrats and that the GOP wanted nothing to do with it. Now, TPM says that the Dems are “actively fuelling” it. So these GOPrs (elected officials, candidates and pundits) throw this around all the time and that’s ok but if a Dem mentions it suddenly it’s the Dems that are “actively fuelling” it.

I’m not saying that the Dems shouldn’t use it to their advantage. I disagree with the way TPM has framed it at the end of this article: that this is somehow a ploy by the Dems and the GOP hasn’t said or done anything about it.

It is a complicated issue for Republicans because 57 percent of the GOP base supports impeaching the president, according to a recent CNN poll.

Yes, but 57% of the GOP base believes that Grape Nuts is a genital disorder and that Moby Dick is a venereal disease.

This state is worse than alabama and mississippi combined. What they do different is keep the population dumbed down and uninformed about anything and everything. There really good at staying out of the national media spotlight while living like kings and queens. Such as today, 90+ degrees and the electric company sets there own charges by the hour. So from 4 to 6 pm I can be charged up to $9.00/kilowatt hour according to there self regulating guidelines. While the CEO and a few close friends of you know who got a 90 million bonus deal last year.
Tracy will probably be reprimanded for speaking outside the circle. 1 person runs the gop establishment in this state. You go through corker or you do not pass go. Alexander learned the hard way.
