Article I Section 2
… The House of Representatives shall choose their speaker and other officers; and shall have the sole power of impeachment.

Article I Section 3
… The Senate shall have the sole power to try all impeachments. When sitting for that purpose, they shall be on oath or affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no person shall be convicted without the concurrence of two thirds of the members present.

Article III Section 1
The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behaviour, and shall, at stated times, receive for their services, a compensation, which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office.

Congress can Impeach a judge for basically any reason it wants to.. however tradition has a powerful role to play in ensuring that impeaching a judge is a very rare thing and usually done in response to the judge being involved with criminal activity.

But Congress has “sole” power to bring impeachment charges, and try them.. so it can do what it can get away with.

Congress also has immense discretion as to the structure of the Courts and the Judges who staff them.

Congress can eliminate the entire 9th Appealate Court (the one that makes all the Far-left rulings) tomorrow if it wants to.

So like with so many other things.. Congress requires men of courage , wisdom and dicernment… and with such people, it could ensure the Courts work for the American people instead of thsoe trying to murder them.

But alas… Nancy Pelosi.

In short, people support Obama because they feel guilty about sinful, greedy America. By voting for Obama, they show the world that victims can make it to the top, thus gaining warm fuzzy feelings of personal redemption, especially if one has white guilt.

So useless.

Flip-Flop Label Won’t Stick to Obama as He Moves to the Right

RUSH: We have Obama — and, by the way, folks, on this flip-flop business, let’s not use the word flip-flop. I don’t think it’s going to persuade anybody. It worked with Kerry because Kerry was such n idiot. I mean, his flip-flops were just funny. “I voted for it before I voted against it.” You gotta remember one thing about these flip-flops, and I’m going to stop using the term here in just a second. Most people are not really paying close attention right now to all this, despite what might be record levels of attention, those of us who are involved in this on a day-to-day basis, we are absorbed, and we are detail-oriented; we know Obama upwards and forwards and backwards and hindwards and all that.

I don’t care how anti-America some of their fringe is, they, as a political party, are not going to saddle themselves with defeat. They might be happy to try to claim victory on this, because there’s a story in the BBC or UK Telegraph or something I have here in the stack — it’s all coming up — about the amazing success that is taking place over there. The word “victory” is being used consistently in much of the foreign media. But here’s what bugs me most about these so-called flip-flops. Every national election, every one of them the liberal Democrats know full well they cannot win. Can you imagine how Hillary Clinton feels today? Obama is now campaigning like Hillary was in the remaining primaries. After Texas, and after Ohio, Obama has now totally taken her campaign, just seized it. She was going after the white working class that was very much upset and disabused of the whole notion of Obama. So now he’s moving in that direction. They do this ’cause they know that far-left-wingism will not win national elections.

They may lie to themselves and say that conservatism is cracking up. They may lie to themselves and say that the era of Reagan or the era of conservatism is over, and that we’re getting ready to usher in a new, far-left agenda. They’re gonna do that if they win, but they’re not going to campaign on it, because it loses. Here’s what’s frustrating. All of these people on our side of the aisle, our so-called media intelligentsia and a number of the country club blue-blood Republicans, the Rockefeller bunch, they think they can’t win as conservatives. They think the Republican Party cannot triumph with a conservative identity, so they go moving left. They move to the Democrats and they move to independents and they try to come up with all these policy shifts that deemphasize the Republican Party base, try to attract the Democrat Party base and get the favorable treatment from the media. In the meanwhile, what are the Democrats doing?

The Democrats are moving in our direction. Obama is moving right. Now, they may say he’s stopped his move right in the middle and in the center, but when he starts flip-flopping on victory in Iraq, when he starts flip-flopping on abortion, when he starts doing a number of these things, gun control, you tell me conservatism — this is maddening. This is maddening. So what could happen here is that as we head into August, when we get to the Democrat National Convention, and Obama starts giving his speech, and if he keeps this stuff up, he may end up sounding just as, quote, unquote, conservative on many things as McCain does. You couple that with his mantra for change and so forth, it may be attractive. The Republican Party is going to have a big job to portray Obama as he really is. He is The Messiah, also known as Senator Obama. He’s not Senator Obama also known as The Messiah. He’s The Messiah also known as Obama.

Decisions like Boumedine may be a prelude of things to come. And 5-4 in the Heller decision is razor thin and it could have gone the other way.

Do you see a pattern?

What if, in the future, things do get very bad, as our civilization is laid more open to the Islamic enemy, as well as other liberties curtailed by the judiciary?

In the context of armed rebellion, anything is possible. But that would indeed be precipitated by a Constitutional crisis. Outside of that context, no I do not recommend targeted assassinations.

neoneocon, you have to understand that there IS an evolving alliance of the Left and Islam in the West. It’s here in the United States. We no longer live in sedate times. If major elements of our government are failing to protect us or are even actively giving aid and comfort to the enemy, one cannot predict that the American people will be forever supine.
