Unless you’re a democrat.
Joe Biden says war without congressional approval warrants impeachment.
Wolf Files dug up this Biden speech from 2007, via Instapundit.
“I want to make it clear. And I made it clear to the President that if he takes this nation to war with Iran without Congressional approval. I will make it my business to impeach him. That’s a fact. That is a fact.”
UPDATE: Pelosi too.
“Bush needs approval to invade Iran.”

That was of course BEFORE Joe had his very own Choo-Choo’s to play with, now he has better things to do.

It is frightening to hear these people cheer when Biden knocks down the straw man he created. My God these people are utter fools.

Hey Joe…You two faced SOB….. What goes around comes around.

OK, Joe, go impeach your boss-daddy. After all, this “is a big, f***ing deal!”, as you would so delicately put it.

“I want to make it clear”, Joe Biden is the village idiot married to the town drunk.

OH…Beware The spooky Ides of March….Julius Ceasar was stabbed 23 times in the Roman Senate during the same March calendar full moon we bombed Libya. The long knives of the New World Order Cult are out for Obama .

Do you think the MSM will play this video over and over and over again?
kansas commented:
He was talking about Bush. The rules have since changed. You wingnuts make me laugh.
NC Cop commented:
“He was talking about Bush.”
Uh, yes, we’re aware of that. That was kind of the point. You new here?
“The rules have since changed.”
How so? Please explain.
“You wingnuts make me laugh.”
Indeed. Keep laughing to another election trouncing that’s coming up in 2012. We’ll laugh after that.

What’s your problem, Kansas. The pig farmer subsidy check late again?
Muffin commented:
Finally! Joe’s chance to become president, and RULE THE WORLD! Are you ready?

Just remember, this buffoon would march you right into the ovens without a second thought. An utter clown to be sure, but a very evil one.
Dave-O commented:
Kansas #14 – the rules haven’t changed at all.
What HAS changed is that the utter and complete vacuity of your so-called “principles” and “beliefs” is on full display for the world to observe, mock and ridicule. People such as Biden, Pelosi and The Annointed One who were so quick to loudly lecture the rest of us on the constitutional limits of executive authority are now shown to be utterly bereft of any shred of legitimacy or decency. You seem to fall into that category as well. Laughingstocks, indeed!

Looks like “Kansas” above has plates in his head as well. (Kansas and Choo-Choo Joe: avoid the microwave; remember what happend to Cousin Eddie).

[Wednesday, February 14, 2007
WASHINGTON β Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton warned President Bush on Wednesday not to take any military action against Iran without getting congressional approval first.
"If the administration believes that any, any use of force against Iran is necessary, the president must come to Congress to seek that authority," Clinton said in a Senate speech.

Somebody better do something fast before this unorganized, leader-less, disaster of a War might set off WWIII…
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1368693/Libya-war-Germans-pull-forces-NATO-Libyan-coalition-falls-apart.html
We already had Russia, China, Brazil and apparently India going off over this mess, but now Germany is pulling its hardware out of NATO fearing NATOs possible eventual involvement/leadership will mean their machinery will get used in the action.
Meanwhile, Italy is attacking France and threatening to deny access to their airfields – which is where almost all coalition planes are launching from in this action.
Oh, and then you have Gates and the UK sniping at eachother because they see Gaddafi as a target for assassination where apparently the US wants him left alone – despite the fact that Obama and basically everyone else in this admin stated he “must go” at one point or another.
Then we have Gates also stating “we have never done this type of thing on the fly before” showing the complete lack of planning or direction most of us feared was really going on. With the UK saying we could be involved for “30 years”!
This “great international coalition” instead looks like a haphazard collection of thugs with no goals or real gameplan, problematic internal bickering and almost no support from the world around them. What more could go wrong? …oh, wait, that’s right – the “rebels” are looking more and more like the terrorists we are fighting in other countries!
Good job Obama, you’ve officially led us into the most pitiful war the country has ever seen, all while completely skirting congress and loosing a huge chunk of your party. Impeach this idiot already!
JoeyO commented:
@14 Kansas,
βHe was talking about Bush.β
Oh, so you were just pointing out that he is a lying hypocrite instead of a gutless bought-and-paid-for piece of trash? Glad you cleared that up…
MAJ Mike commented:
Cme on, now. Is anyone really surprised?
Guy in Ohio commented:
I’m hoping Kansas was just being sarcastic?
Regardless, we all know Democraps OWN hypocrisy and are masters of the double standard. I just hope that when election time rolls around, there are some very skillfully produced television and radio commercials highlighting this fact ….
Stuart commented:
This whole Libya debacle is giving me belly laugh after belly laugh.
Unfortunately the laughter is bitter, because when all of this is over guess who will be left holding the bag as usual. We will.

Question: “What now famous politician called for impeachment of a president for going to war without the approval of Congress ?”
Answer: “Aahhh…that would be Who is Joe Biden”
“Correct, and now we move into the bonus round.”
tenndave commented:
Some of the sites like this should run a headline story: “Biden Says He Will Impeach President”, that would not be a false statement as such, just a different Pres. he had in mind. The story could be the verbal quotes of this story with the word Libya in parenthesis every time the word Iran was used. Make it go viral. Put it on YouTube etc. Force him to have to respond to his reasoning. This is too juicy to pass up.
StJohntheDivine commented:
It is patently clear that the ObozoFond crowd and hangalongs are permitted to do as they please, unchallenged, but let the loyal opposition (GOP and Conservative Americans) try something identical, and this group of rabid howler monkeys will scream for their g’nads… Americans are ready to start hanging these monkeys…. Obozo is lost, adrift at sea with the typhoon bearing down on him and Moochell, Pelosi is as lost as ever (no significant changes there), Biden is more delusional than ever, Reid has gone over the fruitloop edge of the Moon…Holder is ducking incoming missiles launched at his sorry @zz…. Americans are fed up and the Hounds of Hell are descending on the Dumbocratz….

Biden is a posturing jackass.
Andee commented:
With the 112th not wanting to buck the DEMS dramatically, what chance in hell do we have? The newly elected want to forge ahead with the promises made for the 2010 election, Boehner says it will hurt the nation, mess it up too much..what in the world does he think continues to go right in front of his face? Our citizens not only live in fear they live with the knowledge that to the Regime we are nothing more than pigs in a poke and that is how we are being treated. Boehner does not have the guts to stand up to the DEMS with the needed force and there are just enough Rinos and Dems to make sure that he looks like he is supported which obviously he is the way he is acting now….
CommieJuice commented:
Just like the rest of the liberals and fleebaggers, they are all a bunch of hypocritical cowards!
Barbara Hornick commented:
Well, Mr. Biden, why are you and Nancy Pelosi NOT calling for President Obama’s impeachment since he put us in a war without approval of the Congress as is the law. You both threatened President Bush when he was in office(loud and clear) but I haven’t heard a word since Obama did exactly what you threatened President Bush with. ARE you going to follow through with your threats or is it okay since Obama is a fellow Democrat? If that is the case, it seems to me we have a bunchof hippocrites in office(which I know anyway), but what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Show the American people that you can do what is right and do the right thing. That will take GUTS though and that is something that neither you or Pelosi have!!!!

Kansas, “He was talking about Bush.” Do you really think that we didn’t know that? It was 2007, who else would he be talking about………libtard.
