Yes I know he needs to be impeached already and yes I am a veteran myself and I called the white house and complained already as well. I urge everyone to write to the white house and complain as well.

The phone number is 202-456-1414 for the white house and for Vice President Biden it is 202-456-9000. The address is

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

or of course just go to the website http://www.whitehouse.gov/ and type in a comment
I just wrote to the white house and complainded, hopefully action will take place and Obama will be replaced with someone more experienced who can really lead and bring this country out of its hurt state.


complain about what,, and impeached upon what basis?
I really did not want to respond as to back up my reasons but since i am here i might as well. first of all all the illegal immigrants crossing the borders, the oil spill i could go on and on homeland security is not totally safe we just need a wiser, classy, if you will "older" and more experienced leader.

I will tell you why this would not suffice as grounds of impeachment,, because these cannot be attributed DIRECTLY to this President.

The immigrant situation has gone one under SEVERAL presidents BEFORE Obama took office, so to impeach him would require impeaching EVERYONE before him that was in office while this activity took place.

The oil spill is also not something that can be atributed to the President,, that it happened during his Presidency does not make him RESPONSIBLE for it happening,, only responsible for responding to it,,which he is,,,

here is some information on PAST impeachment and the PERSONAL violations those Presidents were guilty of

also, please make a note of how many on the list are impeached for what someone felt they 'failed to do'. the impeachments are all based upon actual OFFENSES ( or actions)

ya know how in debate class they teach ya to be aware of your opponents next move so that you can counter it,,,,..well here it goes

Reagan had 'good reasons' to miss Arlington, or else he had reasons 'Americans wanted'.

Well his actions are very distasteful i do not know the whole story but just listening in on this thread about how unpatriotic he was on memorial day turned me off. And that is an "act" an act of disloylaty to our country. And he should have had prior plans to protect the oil spill from happening in the first place somehow. He should not let so many things go wrong. We deserve a more practical and wiser president that can pull the troops out and fix the economy while protecting our state boundries. He just does not seem right for the job. That is all.

If he is not right for the job,, dont vote for him,, and if enough agree he wont be reelected. But there still is no action upon which he could seriously be impeached.

1983: Reagan attended summit meeting; Defense Department official Thayer laid wreath at Arlington.

1992: George H.W. Bush allowed VP Quayle to lay wreath. The Globe reported that President George H.W. Bush attended a wreath-laying ceremony and made brief remarks at an American Legion hall in Kennebunkport, Maine, where he also played a round of golf.

2007: Cheney attends ceremony to pay tribute at Arlington as Bush remained in Texas. "President Bush honored U.S. troops past and present at a tearful ceremony Sunday for four Texans who died there." The AP further reported that "Vice President Dick Cheney went to Arlington to pay tribute to Iraq veterans."


The ONLY President (since LBJ first declared Memorial Day to be a national holiday in 1964) who attended the ceremony every year for their ENTIRE term in office was Bill Clinton.

http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php
The years that Presidents attended and made a speech

Lyndon Johnson 1966

Gerald Ford 1975 and 1976

Jimmy Carter 1980

Ronald Reagan 1982, 1984, 1985, 1986 and 1988

George Bush (Sr) 1989

William Clinton 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000

George W Bush 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008

Barack Obama 2009




Some people don't let the facts get in the way. They're too busy whining that things are not going the way they think they should go.


Does that mean that I need to post it again?:tongue:

Considering that quite a few people did not like Obama on sight, there isn't much he can do right by them.

That's actually funny - "he should have had prior plans to protect the oil spill."

"Let so many things go wrong" - It's called a recession. It started before he became president.

There was no bribery the job was a non paid position.

So no prison time.

No crime at all actually.

One of the PRIORITIES enjoyed by the living is to remember and respect those who sacrificed everything they had and everything they were ever going to have to make sure OUR world was safe for us and our posterity ... They had THEIR priorities right.
