Title: Obama impeachment a possibility, says Ron Paul

Ron Paul said Monday that President Barack Obama’s targeted killing of Anwar al-Awlaki might be an impeachable offense.

Asked at a Manchester, N.H. town hall meeting about last week’s killing of the American-born Al Qaeda leader, the Texas congressman said impeachment would be “possible,” but that he wants to know more about how the administration “flouted the law.”

Continue Reading Text Size -+reset Listen Obama on al-Awlaki's death Latest on POLITICO Senate clears way for China debate Williams compares Obama to Hitler Obama got the iPad 'a little bit early' Mitt: Hunting camp name 'offensive' Leave China out of it Bachmann pans supercommittee POLITICO 44 Paul called the killing a movement toward “tyranny.”

“I put responsibility on the president because this is obviously a step in the wrong direction,” Paul said. “We have just totally disrespected the Constitution.”

The comments once again put Paul at odds with his Republican rivals over foreign policy and the war on terror in the latest indication of how his foreign policy views stray far from Republican orthodoxy even in a GOP that’s taken on an increasingly isolationist bent. Candidates like Michele Bachmann and Mitt Romney — who included the president in a list of people he commended in a statement released Friday — have generally been supportive of the killing. No one else in the field has spoken out against it.

But Paul’s stuck with the civil libertarians who’ve criticized the targeted killing of an American citizen without public due process.

Paul, speaking at the University of New Hampshire’s Manchester campus as part of a brief swing through the state, also made another pitch for eliminating the federal income tax.

“If our lives and our liberty are our own, we ought to be able to keep the fruits of our labor,” he said.

But he modulated a bit when asked about eliminating social welfare programs, offering a caution that he said “might be a bit too pragmatic for some.”

“I have an ideal of what we should strive for and a goal, and that would be no social services,” he said. “But for me it’s trying to work our way out of this. … I don’t argue we should drop those cold. I don’t even believe in closing down the Federal Reserve in one day.”

Damn. Ron Paul is serious. If he is saying Impeach him for an assassination, what is the logical conclusion? What is the penalty for assassinating someone?

A. 100 dollar fine plus court costs. B. 30 days house arrest. C. 1 year in jail D. Execution

Hmmm....

TOUGH choices....

Given the overt treason, I'd have to go with "D."

JMHO.

Might be?

It's called first degree murder.

He murdered a U.S. citizen without due process.

Obama is a vigilante.

If ANY Republican had assassinated an American citizen, the left would be ENRAGED. Yet, they are silent.

There is something very instructive here. The left doesn't give a hoot about the rule of law or due process. The left only cares about their agenda.

Historically, the left's agenda has always been included murdering people who disagree.

Boofer agrees with me, Junior. Don't believe me? Ask him.

Evil Dwarf: Hey Boof...aren't you happy that it was Obama who ordered this guy blown into itsy bitsy pieces o' pink and turban?

Boofer: I don't care who ordered it, I'm happy as hell this guy is room temperature.

That said, credit where credit is due. The President did order these strikes there. It was the correct policy.

If Bush had done it you would have the opposite opinion.

Bullshit. One of DumbDubv43's BIGGEST failures was not doing what Obama accomplished with Bin Laden. And I challenge you to find any post of mine in which I called for Bin Laden to be made anything but dead...

I'm on record stating that I would have supported DumbDubv43 reducing our nuclear arsenal by a few to level those border mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Bullshit.

As Stone already pointed out, if W. had done it, you'd be screaming bloody murder.

But since it's oBUMa, you'll gladly suck his dick on live TV, saying how the shredding of the Constitution is such a great idea...

You'll do anything to cover for the socialists. I'm eagerly waiting for you to kill yourself, because oBUMa said it's "the correct policy."

Had you lived in Nazi Germany, you would have happily sent prisoners to the gas-chamber, because der Fuhrer said it was "the correct policy."

You fuckers make me sick.

True. A person with so little ability to retain information such as yourself needs to be pitied, as no amount of reminders seem to be helping.
