If Al Green (D) is Filing Impeachment, Why Are Dems Sweating?

Posted by SLRT on Wed Oct 11 16:16:24 2017

Because it has no chance at passage so the Democrats are expected to vote to table it, but it will still put them on the spot because liberal groups are expected to put pressure on individual congressmen.

Obama pretty much immunized himself from an impeachment resolution by saying the Republicans would try to impeach him if they still had congress in his second term.

The GOP was so worried that this accusation would lose them the House that they more or less swore they wouldn't try to impeach. They did keep the House and they didn't try impeachment.

Somehow I don't think Green's resolution will help the Democrats and may hurt them. It's one thing to hint at impeachment and another to be made to vote on it.

It's going to hurt them. They really need to get their act together. They are digging their hole dealer instead of closing it. They didn't learn from 2016?

Yes, but there are real problems with Obamacare. They were loony in trying to totally eradicate it, but not as much in trying to change it. Unlike the dead horse of trying to impeach trump.

There's real problems with every "solution" to those problems the republicans have proposed. Especially with cutting people off from their healthcare, that will KILL millions instead of enabling their living at a lower cost than ER treatments with no followups, that ensuring MORE return trips to the ER, cost more and more.

We do not yet know if there is an impeachable crime on the part of trump. When that day arrives, I hope it will be handled properly. Meaning, if an indictment is reached it gets followed through with ejudication, not denial and coverup.

Who, and what exactly?

You do know that health care existed before Obamacare, right? I do hope not everyone's memory from before 2010 hasn't been erased.

No, that's not what "immunized" Obama from impeachment. He had the RINOs on his side the whole time.

No, reality.

We all know you don't give a shit about anyone but yourself, so as long as YOU have access to healthcare nobody else matters. Typical RWer bullshit.

Tabled 364-58 [If Al Green (D) is Filing Impeachment, Why Are Dems Sweating?]

House votes to kill Democrat’s resolution to impeach Trump

By Kevin Freking
Dec 6, 2017 3:12 PM EST
The House overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to kill a resolution from a liberal Democratic lawmaker to impeach President Donald Trump as most Democrats joined Republicans in opposing the move.

Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, said Trump had associated his presidency with causes rooted in bigotry and racism. To back his claim accusing Trump of high misdemeanors, Green cited incidents such as Trump's blaming both sides for violence at a deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, and his recent sharing of hateful, anti-Muslim videos posted online by a fringe British extremist group.

After his resolution was read aloud, the House voted 364-58 to table the resolution.

All the no votes came from Democrats, and four Democratic lawmakers voted present. In all, 126 Democrats joined Republicans in voting to table Green's effort in the GOP-led House.

Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said in a statement shortly before the vote that while "legitimate questions have been raised about his fitness to lead this nation," they argued "now is not the time to consider articles of impeachment."

Several Democratic lawmakers said they agreed that it's premature to act before special counsel Robert Mueller's team completes its investigation into Russian election meddling.

Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Mich., said Democratic lawmakers cannot allow themselves to be drawn into a process "that's not thoughtful or complete or might not even be the conclusion we ought to draw."

"We ought to let Mr. Mueller complete his full investigation rather than engage in what would essentially be a public relations stunt," Kildee said. "This is a serious thing. It ought not to be done on a whim."

Green said on the House floor that he planned to take the road less traveled in seeking Trump's impeachment. He's convinced it's a road worth traveling, but he said, "I ask that no one take this journey with me."

Afterward, Green said the vote would not deter him from trying again. He said he was already working on additional articles of impeachment.

"I didn't lobby anybody. I didn't ask anybody, but I'm grateful for those who did vote with the Constitution. I assure you, it's a process and this was a step in the process," Green said.

Pelosi has said any impeachment drive should wait until there's evidence of an impeachable offense. Another problem for Democrats is that opposing Green's resolution puts them at risk of angering the party's rabidly anti-Trump voters. Some Democrats tried talking Green out of his plan. They did the same in October, when he proposed a similar resolution but never demanded a vote on it.

Associated Press writer Alan Fram contributed to this report.
