The notion of impeaching President Barack Obama got substantial attention Friday from two White House officials, who both said senior Republicans wanted to see it happen. But they couldnt name any senior Republicans when pressed.
Further, White House press secretary Josh Earnest expressed doubt about whether House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) was sincere when he said impeachment is not on the table.
I do believe that the speaker said on a number of occasions that there would not be steps taken by Republicans to shut down the government over health care, Earnest said of Boehner, adding, Maybe you need to ask him a little bit more about whether impeachment is on the table or not.
Some conservatives have called for impeaching Obama regarding executive overreach on issues such as Obamacare, immigration and guns without congressional authorization. The Democratic National Committee and Organizing for America have consistently used impeachment in fundraising emails to warn donors about what could happen if Republicans win more seats in the House and gain control of the Senate.

I don't think this issues are good enough reasons to Impeach Obama?
In fact, Clinton's issue was much more serious (lying, sex scandal) but nothing happen.
In my opinion, this story is just republican's propaganda before the elections.
Well, a high crime or misdemeanor would certainly include betraying the Constitution for starters. Of course, that is so yesterday in terms of what most politicians and all recent presidents have done. However, flooding the country w/ illegal aliens while giving them a free ride while average Americans are hurting and having to follow all rules to a T, doesn't sit well and is a violation of one's oath of office in a large way. You can't have immigration rules set up and then the executive acts like they don't exist. Plus, he's made a mockery out of Border Patrol guards. Everything this man has done w/ his puppet leadership in the Congress in terms of the economy, bailouts, foreign policy of intervening in Libya, Egypt and behind the scenes in Syria has been detrimental to this country's future. He's a failed George W. Bush on steroids.
