The real answer to your question is that people got bored of Julian Assange shortly after he was arrested and began complaining about Libya and Obama's lack of ability to reduce debt instead.


Thanks, lol. So, Obama's up for impeachment, or what?

"President Obama moved forward without Congress approving. He didn't have Congressional authorization, he has gone against the Constitution, and that's got to be said," Kucinich told Raw Story. "It's not even disputable, this isn't even a close question. Such an action -- that involves putting America's service men and women into harm's way, whether they're in the Air Force or the Navy -- is a grave decision that cannot be made by the president alone."

"And I'm raising the question as to whether or not it's an impeachable offense. It would appear on its face to be an impeachable offense," Kucinich said. "Now, it doesn't necessarily follow that simply because a president has committed an impeachable offense, that the process should start to impeach and remove him. That's a whole separate question. But we have to clearly understand what this Constitution is about."

The anti-war Democrat pointed to this quote from candidate Obama in 2007: "The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation."

 

"So what the president did is, by his own words, outside the Constitution," Kucinich said. "This isn't a case of him not knowing. He knows clearly that he has not complied with the Constitution. And that's a very serious matter because he's using the ultimate authority of a president."

Well, that's more than enough perfect convincing for him to be kicked off the throne; although hes just a puppet like any other president, whats stopping congress from actually beginning the process? Cause hes the wanna-be-token "african american"? If it wasn't for his "race", I honestly don't believe he would've been elected, or given the benefit of the doubt of his unknowning acknowledgment of his own commanded venturing into libya. 

Because Kucinich, while i love the hell outta the guy's politics, is quite frankly a nut. If what Bush did didn't rise any official impeachment noise, none of what Obama's done yet qualifies.
