We honked and waved as we went by thinking them to be brave and committed souls, standing with that sign on a public highway in 97 degree heat. As I was nearing the next intersection I decided I needed a picture and turned onto the access road to go back. When we arrived at their location they had rolled up the sign and were carrying it and their coolers toward their vehicle.
I parked and got out, walking toward them. "Man, I just turned around so I could take a picture."
They laughed. "We have to go to work," one of them replied.
"You mean this isn't your full time job?" I joked. They laughed again. They were obviously in good moods so I asked "Do you think, once you set your other things down, you might unroll the sign so I can get a picture? I want to post it online. I have some liberal friends who will just love it!" (Laughing as I said it.)
"Sure," they both replied, and set their coolers down right there so they could unroll the sign.
I snapped a couple of pictures, thanked them and asked "So what was your overall response from people passing by?"
One of them responded "We had about five cars that gave us the finger but mostly we got honks, waves and thumbs up."
This is Texas, after all.
I thanked them again and we proceeded on our way. I posted the picture on Facebook when we got home.
I got to thinking of them again this morning and what the consequences would be if President Obama was actually impeached. Regardless of what the articles of impeachment were, the left and the mainstream media would decry it as racist. It's what they do to detract from the actual facts.
Benghazi alone should be enough to impeach President Obama. Denied security requests leading to four dead Americans then lying to the American people for weeks about what happened, followed by continued cover-up of the truth.
Attorney General Eric Holder's refusal to respond or provide information about Fast and Furious should be another. And disclosing secret grand jury material by exposing the existence of a sealed indictment of one of the Benghazi attackers in violation of Rule 6(e) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure which clearly states: "… no person may disclose the indictment’s existence except as necessary to issue or execute a warrant or summons."
He has authorized and permitted confidential income tax returns information from the Internal Revenue Service to be provided to unauthorized individuals, organizations and agencies. He has caused investigations and audits to be initiated or conducted by the Internal Revenue Service in a discriminatory manner, including harassment and intimidation of conservative, evangelical and Tea Party groups applying for non-profit status between 2010 and 2012.
And he has (1) authorized and permitted the National Security Agency to conduct or continue electronic surveillance of over 300 million average Americans; (2) given access to National Security Agency surveillance data to other intelligence units within the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Secret Service, the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security in violation of the law; and (3) conducted the surveillance of average Americans unconstrained by Congress, the United Supreme Court or the US Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court which has, to this date, functioned as a rubber stamp, having approved every request made of it in 2012 and rejecting only two of the 8,591 requests submitted between 2008 and 2012.
These are just a few of the articles that could be leveled against him in an impeachment procedure. See anything racist about any of them? Me neither. But that's what the allegations will be from liberal progressives and the mainstream media. They can't help themselves.
But there is another reason, perhaps even more compelling, that might prevent the impeachment of the man who would be king. It's a tough choice. On the one hand you have Obama and his lies for another three years. On the other hand, if the impeachment is successful and Obama is ousted, our next President will be:
