Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) predicted on Monday that Republicans will attempt to impeach President Obama if they maintain control of the House this November.
Clyburn, the assistant Democratic leader, was responding on Twitter to someone who asked why Democrats weren’t doing more to shut down the GOP’s talk of impeachment.
.@LiberalPhenom No way to shut down the talk, nor should there be, it’s real and I predict if GOP maintain House, Obama will be impeached.

Republicans recently voted to sue Obama for the executive actions he’s taken. GOP leaders have repeatedly said they have no plans to impeach Obama, but recent polling has shown many Republican voters would welcome the move.
If Boehner says they wont, then they surely will.
I bet they will Impeach Obama…trying to find Vegas odds
I’m tired of the threat already
Impeached for being a lowdown black bastard having the ubelievable gall to occupy the White House… That’s all this is about.
After the mid-terms in Nov. they have 2 full years to fill up with DOING NOTHING (they have already stated they will start the new session with ANOTHER vote against the ACA) and an “Impeachment Battle” would do nicely to gin up the base, stoke the donation machine, and land lots of nice soft-ball appearances on the Talk Shows where they can “rend their garments” over the “Lawlessness of Obama.” On top of all that, the lunatic wing will DEMAND they Impeach and it will rapidly become a litmus-test for ANYONE entering the Clown Show that the Republican Presidential Primary is sure to become.
You can bet your ass they will Impeach.
