The tea party Pushes Democrats Towards Victory By Declaring National Impeach Obama Week

The tea partiers are doing what they do best, helping Democrats win elections by declaring August 23 to be National Impeach Obama Week.…

The tea party is an out of control entity full of birthers and fringers that the repugican cabal only thought they had control over. So, yet another fail courtesy of the tea party for the repugican cabal. This time, it’s Obama impeachment craze. Even as repugican leaders try to pretend they aren’t heading toward impeachment, all signs to reality tell quite another story.

As Democrats raise record amounts of cash and rile up their usually-not-engaged-for-the-midterms-base off of Boehner’s misguided and partisan Hail Mary aka the Obama lawsuit, repugicans won’t shut up about impeaching Obama. The more they talk, the more Democrats raise and the angrier the Democratic base gets. The angrier the base gets, the more they commit to voting to protect their President– and no matter what the press tells you, this base loves this President. He is “their President.” They don’t like watching him get picked on.
Here comes the fail.
In other words, these are not people the repugican cabal wants to be associated with come election time. These are the crazies that the repugican cabal uses with cheap fear tactics – the easily manipulated and easily conned to vote against their own interests. But there is a political cost to cheap shots and negativity. Caitlin MacNeal at Talking Points Memo noted dryly, “Only a few groups have endorsed the impeachment week so far, including the tea party patriots of Brookhaven in New York and the Ventura County tea party in California.”
It’s also very John Boehner-esque that wingnuts have been calling for Obama to be impeached long before many of these alleged/fantasized/invented events ever happened. They’ve been on the desperate hunt for a cause to impeach Obama since he beat them in the first election.
If repugicans had ever actually read Obama’s books, they would know that he admits to being excellent at using things like this against the perpetrators. But repugicans underestimate Obama at every turn, even as they writhe in jealousy over his Kennedy-esque charisma. The repugicans are blinded by hubris and never seem to learn from their past mistakes, so they don’t see “Please proceed” even when it’s coming at them 200 MPH. Or lipstick on a pig.
Yesterday I noted that by failing to take reasonable action on immigration and the border crisis, repugicans were setting President Obama up for impeachment. They are forcing him to either let Rome burn/abrogate his duties or stretch the powers of the executive office. They are counting on the fact that Obama is not as irresponsible as the repugican cabal and therefor will not put his political self ahead of the country’s responsibilities.
But what they aren’t counting on is the mountain of cash Democrats are raising. The riled up base. And a President who excels at using other people’s cheap shots against them. Just ask Sarah Palin how that whole “pallin‘ around with terrorists” thing worked out for her.
It’s Impeach Obama Week, y’all! Get your tin foil hat and kick up your Obama Derangement Syndrome into high gear, the party is starting just in time for the public to remember it come November.
