Ron Paul Says Impeaching Obama is “Possible”

Ben Johnson,The White House Watch


During a town hall meeting at the University of New Hampshire on Monday,Congressman Ron Paul said an “impeachment process would be possible”against Barack Obama. The Republican presidential candidate said charges could be filed over the killing of American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki,a high-ranking al-Qaeda figure who was killed by an American drone in Yemen.

“Al-Awlaki was born here. He is an American citizen,”Paul said. “He was never tried or charged for any crimes…But if the American people accept this blindly and casually that we now have an accepted practice of the president assassinating people who he thinks are bad guys,I think it’s sad.”

Although federal agents have sought al-Awlaki since the Clinton administration,and the Authorization for the Use of Force passed following 9/11 allows the president to kill anyone he “determines planned,authorized,committed,or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11,”al-Awlaki’s birth in the United States has many debating the proper interplay between national security and civil liberties.

Paul is not the only Republican presidential candidate to have criticized the Obama administration’s handling of al-Awlaki….

    First they came for Al Alawki and I was silent;then they came for Obama,and I was
    silent,then they came for the Obama's cult and everyone cheered and no one was silent any longer.

    Guess what folks. I have a lot less trouble w/ that than I do w/ a LOT of other stuff that the "resident"has done,Where were the tears for bin Laden? They weren't there,nor should they have been. Ron Paul ALSO thinks that we shouldn't be "interfering"w/ Iran's development of the A-bomb. Guy is a nut.

    impeachment should NOT be persued……….if you impeach the usurper you will by default have legitimized his being there……..arrest and try for treason………that will negate ALL of the things he has done………..he is illegaly where he is……..his dad BY HIS ADMISSION was not a US citizen………therefore NOT eligible

    I would love to see it and I agree that Obama should be Impeached,cut off from ever getting another dime of tax payers money,and made the offer of either paying back every penny wasted on him or leave the country never to be allowed to return…Really,I would rather he took option 2. However,reality is it's not going to happen.
    As for al-Awlaki,he made his bed.
    American citizen or not. Living in somplaceastan,acting as a terrorist he got what he deserved. Life is tough.
    If Mr Clinton had acted to take out terrorist rather than just talk about it maybe the horror of 9/11 would have been avoided.
    Mr. Bush acted to take out the theat.
    Like the way he went about it or don't. Bottom line is he acted.
    Right or wrong,he did stay the course. I applaude him for his efforts.
    As for Obama…
    I believe the fabric of our country is crumbling around us.
    All I can say is it's not too late for America.
    However,this man has got to go and go ASAP.

  • I voted for Barack in 2008,but am switching parties to vote for Ron Paul in 2012.

    RUSSIAN OFFICIAL CLAIMS:“OBAMA IS A COMMUNIST KGB AGENT”

    In the light of our present circumstances does this really sound too implausible?

    I wish they would just do it instead of just talking about it. They can included the federal judges who think they have the right to make law from the bench and people like Eric Holder who will not up hold the law base on ones pigmentation.
