These fucking lunatics have no shame.
Clytemnestra
No I'm not kidding.
Not even sworn in yet "Impeach Obama" sites are popping up on Facebook and the web.
On Facebook, an "Impeach Barack Obama" group has attracted more than 700 members and a lively debate about the Democrat's election victory on Tuesday over Republican John McCain.
Another Facebook group of the same name has 160 members and urges others to join because "we might as well get a head start on the impeachment of Obama."
"There are a lot of Americans out there that do not fully understand the concept of Socialism or Communism which is why they've elected Obama as president," it says.
Yet another Facebook group, "Impeach Barack Hussein Obama," has 160 members.

There's a bumper sticker
And more:
People forming these Impeach Obama groups seem to be anticipating that President Barack Obama will almost certainly commit impeachable acts. Therefore the Impeach Obama groups are being formed to be ready when such a thing occurs.
What impeachable offenses do these Impeach Obama groups anticipate? One group, Impeach Barack Hussein Obama, suggests that some of Obama's policy proposals are unconstitutional, hence impeachable offenses.

They anticipate that he will ban assault weapons and bring back the "Fairness Doctrine." But while they "think" these may be unconstitutional they are sure he will do something unconstitutional.
Here's the money quote:
One problem is that American Presidents make unconstitutional proposals all the time. Often it is not apparent that a policy proposal in unconstitutional until the Supreme Court says that it is. It's therefore a stretch the want to impeach a President for making the proposal in the first place before it is officially determined to be unconstitutional. A President trying to continue the policy after the Supreme Court strikes it down might be another matter.
You mean like all the policies of George Bush, especially regarding Gitmo - the policies he continued even after SCOTUS determined to be unconstitutional - that he has NOT been impeached for?
Here's one of the many problems with not impeaching George Bush. If one of the reasons the Democratic leadership thought that they would increase civility if they didn't impeach Bush for his actual crimes . . . well that's not going to happen.
The vultures of the Republican party are already circling the White House waiting for him to make one mistake, no matter how minor.
These are the politics that Republicans employed against Clinton in it's rawest form. They are already letting us know what they will use against Obama. They aren't even waiting until he does something. They are ready, NOW!
Our leadership's unwillingness to fight and impeach for actual high crimes did nothing to mollify the other side and get them to a bipartisan Kum-By-yah moment.
They want nothing of it. And in the mean time we are letting criminals go free.
Obama has done nothing. He hasn't even put his hand on the Bible and recited the oath of Office and they are ready to take him down. ( DKos )
