10/27/12, “If Reelected, Obama Should Be Impeached over Benghazi,” Roger Simon, PJ Media
“If Barack Obama is reelected, will he face impeachment over Benghazi — a yet more unpleasant and far more wrenching result than to lose an election?
It could happen — and in my estimation should happen
— the way revelations are playing out over the bloody terror attack
that took four American lives and has led to weeks of prevarication and
obfuscation.
The scandal thus far has at least tarnished and quite possibly implicated everyone
from the CIA director, to the secretaries of State and Defense, to the
UN ambassador and, of course, the president himself — with no end in
sight, because Obama, normally loath to expose himself and even less so
in an election season, refuses to answer questions on the subject.
It’s not the crime, but the cover-up, we learned in an earlier impeachment, only in this case the crime may be just as bad or worse.
A new impeachment will be all the more probable in the not unlikely scenario that Obama wins the electoral vote while Mitt Romney wins the popular vote,
perhaps handily. The atmosphere in that instance will be more poisonous
than it has been in years — and it’s poisonous enough already.
In fact, under this scenario — a Romney popular victory mitigating
(no pun intended) an Obama Electoral College triumph – I think
impeachment proceedings will almost certainly begin in the House.
Moreover, the ramifications of such an impeachment would be greater than
Watergate and Monicagate — relatively minor internal events in
comparison, the former concerning the break-in of a political office
during an election that was already won and the latter, well, adultery
in the White House… or more precisely lying under oath about adultery in
the White House.
Neither was about anything nearly as important as the seemingly negligent deaths of American personnel, the evolution (actually diminution) of American foreign policy and its possible implications thereof for the health, even the survival, of Western civilization and its values.”…
