Wicked Smaht Boston Radio Host Calls for IMPEACHMENT

Jay Severin is many things, good and bad (as are we all), but his analysis of all things political is absolutely, positively, without even a close competitor by a thousand miles, the most prescient, accurate and insightful on radio or any other medium, print or broadcast. RAZOR FRIGGIN' SHARP. (He is consistently RIGHT about stuff, days, weeks, even YEARS ahead of others when they are just awakening from their stupor.  VERY much like Glenn Beck.  You can call them every name in the book all day long but it doesn't make them any less right, over and over and over again, year after year, which is what hacks off liberals so bad, I'm sure!)

Below is the unexpurgated text of his latest blog post - about Impeachment of Obama based on the activities surrounding health care. I recommend listening to his first half hour every day, starting at 2pm eastern. You will learn more in those 30 minutes daily than in all other hours from all other sources combined. It's not even close.

Procedural Rules - Posted by Jay Severin
Posted 3/18/2010 12:32:00 PM
Quite chilling how monumental - and wicked - instants of history can occur so quickly and with such incredible nonchalance.
As in the case of Barack Hussein Obama, who just happens to be the President of the United States, who yesterday breezily declared he "doesn't pay much attention to procedural rules".
Oh, Barrack, you are so chill!
Who needs all those old fashioned (not to mention inconvenient) laws, anyway, right dude?
Okay. So it is time for somebody to use the "I" word, as in Impeachment.
I will.
Impeachment of a President (an indictment, not removal form office, which is "Recall") may occur when he or she is found guilty of the commission of high crimes and misdemeanors.
Is not openly denouncing and violating the essential oath of his office - which is exactly Obama has done - Impeachable on its face?
Did Obama not swear to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution (you know, one of those old "rules" you don't pay attention to)?
Obama has violated his sacred oath.
He deserves Impeachment, and we deserve to draw this line, wage this honorable fight.
We are, with current Congressional composition, unlikely to fashion actual Impeachment; that is for after the coming election day.
But, as we certainly know (see Scott Brown) we can make a great deal of noise, and trouble for the other side. We just need to get "Impeachment" in the wind, in the media, in the conversation.
We need to verify to them, to our children, to ourselves that we are serious about the President noit taking seriously his oath of office.
We can do that, now.
And I now believe we must do that, now.
Impeachment, anyone?

"Millions Will Be Dependent and Like it."

Remember, a "gaffe" in Washington is when someone accidentally tells the truth.  Anita Dunn, former WH Communications Director, who is on tape in a speech saying she looks to Mao (and Mother Theresa) for inspiration, made a whopper on the Today show at about 2:16 on this clip. She's still whining about those mean Republicans who had no power to stop health care until Scott Brown was elected, which is getting really, really, tired, (Jesus.  What part of SUPER majority don't they understand?  They had control over both houses of congress and the White House for over a year.  It's so infantile I can't take anymore.  Seriously.) but the juicy statement is the one that is so revealing of the true nature of this bill:  POWER "Millions Will Be Dependant and Like it." There it is. This is about POWER not HEALTH and don't EVER forget it.


Obama-Isms Continued - "Supergenius Intellectual President Speaks"

You know, GWB never claimed to be an intellectual, and heaven knows, there was no word or phrase safe from mangling in his care, but BHO has been so oversold as such a supergenius, that it's just too much to ask those of us who did not vote for him not to notice when he makes a big screw up sandwich.

Of course, none of the networks or cables covered it, just the usual talk radio/Fox/Drudge/Breitbart "axis of evil," (my nickname!) but BHO said in Ohio this week that his health care plan would reduce our health insurance bills by "3000 percent" and all the little Obamtons clapped and cheered...

Now, clearly, he meant $3000.  So it would be patently unfair to pillory him seriously asserting that he meant that.  He didn't, of course, and that's the difference between Progressives and Conservatives.  Progressives won't even report it.  Conservatives might report it, but they will be reasonable and fair.  That's not to say Conservatives are always reasonable and fair, but at least they report things.

Secondly, in his interview with Brett Baier last night, he said the Louisiana Purchase would help in Hawaii's earthquake.... Uh-huh.  Now, I happen to know, because I have no life, that the language in the "Louisiana Purchase" legislation was such that the allocation was worded in such a way that only a major water type disaster in a certain kind of landscape would eligible for that money - so crafted so that nosey internet bloggers couldn't run a word search and find it easily.  You had to actually read the entire section in order to conclude that that language clearly, and damn near exclusively meant Louisiana.  Clearly, inferring Obama's intimation, there has been some wiggle room found that would cover Hawaii in the event of a similar water type disaster... though Obama seemed so unsure as to what was actually in the current bill that it's hard to make reasonable conclusions about what he knows and doesn't know.

I can't explain the "earthquake" reference.  Again, a reasonable and fair reading of what he meant to imply was the tsunami that Hawaii was facing due to the Chilean earthquake.  I have since heard it posited that he might have meant Haiti, but Haiti's not a state, and that was the context of the exchange, so... We're back to being confused right along with the Leader of the Free World Super Genius Smartest President Ever Elected Obama.

Can you imagine the non-stop ridicule if Sarah Palin had said such a thing?  "I can see Hawaii from the Bayou!"

Finally, in no particular order, in Baier's interview last night, Obama either wasn't fully conversant on what was in the bill, or comported himself in such a way that if he were a conservative, they would be killing him on TV today.  Killing him.  This the supergenius' signature piece of legislation.  One of the most important not only of his presidency but in our history as a nation.  I know it's 2700 pages, but it's his baby.  Brett knew!  Brett was clearly more informed about what was in the bill than Obama was.  Can you imagine if VP Palin was reduced to having to ask a reporter what he was talking about? (The Connecticut exchange...) OMG.

And finally, finally, what the hell is this recitation of "dead" Republicans ideas' in the bill?  Dole?  Daschle?  What the... They're not in office for the love of Pete.  Is he comp-is men-tis?  Is he having some kind of episode we should be concerned about?  It's not the only baffling thing he said in this interview without the TOTUS (Teleprompter of The United States).

And just as a bonus, Joe Biden said "God rest her soul" about the Irish Prime Minister's mother.  I'm sure she was glad to get such a blessing.

She's still alive.

Gotta love, Joe, huh?

PPS:  Savannah Guthrie was held up as an example of tough journalistic inquiry when she drilled Robert Gibbs in the daily briefing the other day.  Glenn Beck even did a segment on her actually committing journalism for once.  Less than 48 hours later, MSNBC is going all Emily Post on Brett Baier doing the same thing with the President.  I agree that he did interrupt him, and it made me a bit uncomfortable, because the President should be afforded a wider berth than a press secretary to filibuster, but Baier was in impossible spot.  As any reporter is when interviewing the Leader of the Free World.  One man's balancing act on the tightrope of propriety is another man's precipitous fall...

PPPS:  Pat Buchanan made a brilliant point this morning that the democrats cared very much about "process" when the Supreme Court "selected not elected" GWB in 2004, but now... not so much... "Deeming" is just dandy.
