Are Republicans not talking about impeachment again?
Nobody important in the GOP talking about impeachment, that’s for sure.
Tom Turkeyneck, warbling again about them durned illeguhlz comin’ to take our JERBZ…
Tommy, those of us in Colorado know you and what you represent…As a citizen and resident of the USofA, and Colorado, I have the credibility to say to you to…Shut the Fuck Up…and Sit the Fuck Down…
“…Tancredo lost his Republican primary bid…”
If Republicans don’t trust his judgment, why should I care what his opinion is?
Damn Obama for forcing Tom Tancredo to deviate from the Republican’s pre-election talking points!
"It's unconstitutional. He should be impeached if he tries it," Tancredo, a Colorado Republican and outspoken immigration hawk in the House from 1999 to 2009, said Wednesday evening by phone from his home in Denver.
US Constitution, Article II, Section 2, paragraph 1
he [the President] shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.
A blanket pardon is known as an amnesty, and is within the scope of the President’s constitutionally granted powers.
This is much the same thing as when Carter granted amnesty to Vietnam era draft dodgers. Carter’s pardon reads, in part:
Acting pursuant to the grant of authority in Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution of the United States. I, Jimmy Carter, President of the United States, do hereby grant a full, complete and unconditional pardon to: (1) all persons who may have committed any offense between August 4, 1964, and March 28, 1973, in violation of the Military Selective Service Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder; and (2) all persons heretofore convicted, irrespective of the date of conviction, of any offense committed between August 4, 1964, and March 28, 1973, in violation of the Military Selective Service Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder, restoring to them full political, civil, and other rights.
Once again, Trancredo demonstrates that “constitutional conservatism” is the belief that anything that you don’t like is unconsitutional.
C’mon Tancredo! Say what you REALLY think! You want Obama impeached because he’s black! C’mon say it! I dare you!
Shut the fuck up you racist asshole.
You had your 15 min. now go crawl back into your hole in the ground.
Who could ever forget this scene when Tancredo was called a Chicken-Hawk and left in the middle of the conversation? The fun starts around 2:58!
This guy has always been a first class asshole!!!
President Obama should proceed with his plan to legalize undocumented immigrants via executive actions.
LET THEM IMPEACH HIM!!! There would be a tsunami of democrats at the polls in November.
Like it or not.Tom gets an A+ for consistency, every single time he opens his mouth. he appears to be a complete and total asshole.
Remember when Reagan granted amnesty to 3 million illegals and it was teh Super Awesome Patriotic Tough Guy thing to do.
“And also if he still keeps being President!” Tancredo fumed.
Including things they used to like until the n****r president decided to do them.
Stop it. It’s rude to tell people that their God doesn’t exist.
You take that back, right now! No such thing happened! Ronald Reagan was the perfect president! Perfect and infallible! He never raised taxes on rich people! He believed with all his heart that capital gains were a special super-magic kind of income that should be taxed at a lower top marginal rate than ordinary income! He never once put U.S. troops in danger by imposing politically motivated rules of engagement on our Boys in Uniform! You must be reading liberal propaganda!
You can say, gee, we probably couldn’t convict him," he said.
If at first you fail… fail fail again. At least 50 times. What good is money if you don’t spend it?
Tancredo who supports every war except the one he pretended to be crazy to get out of…Vietnam…wants the president impeached…well bring it on Tommie you yellow bellied coward.
