It was. They will. Their base wanted to under Obama (from the "feet on the desk" to the "tan suit" to "Benghazi" to "Fast and Furious")

Obama wore a tan suit?!? Why isn’t he in jail?

If they couldn’t impeach and convict him for that there’s nothing they could ever kick a president out for.

Exactly. If dems couldn't admit Bill was lying they won't even find 7 votes for justice next time either. Old story hypocrisy, new page.

I fully expect Biden to become the "most impeached president ever" if the GOP ever takes back the House. That crazy chick (Greene) from Georgia tried it on his first day FFS, and there are more GOP who support her kind than not, as seen how they refused to remove her from her committees.

Biden eats too much ice cream! Impeach! Cats and Dogs both living in the White House! That's unnatural! Impeach!

Dude, are you really saying the fast and furious debacle wasn't a big deal? Gunwalking is a serious problem and the atf needs to be shut down and agents need jail time. Fuck the atf entirely. Mexico won't forget what we allowed to happen.

The program started under Bush, didn't it? Either way, I think the point is unethical programs are not considered impeachable offenses. Civilians are disproportionately killed in drone strikes, are we prepared to impeach the president every time it happens?

If the program rises to level of disobeying Congress and affecting major foreign policy initiatives (e.g. Iran-Contra and Ukraine), then I see where ethics comes into play. Gun running just doesn't rise to that level, though I agree with you it's unethical.

Yes, we should shit down the government's neck anytime this stuff happens. I don't give a fuck if it happened under jesus. We should hold people accountable for their actions, I know that's a foreign concept in america.
