Jim Inhofe Mulls 'I-Word' After Benghazi -- Politico
Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) said the fatal attacks on American diplomats in Benghazi could lead to President Barack Obama’s impeachment during a radio interview Friday.

My Comment: My eyes are rolling. I am not a fan of most of President Obama's policies, but it will take a hell of a lot more evidence and willful breaking of the law from this White House to even consider such a prospect. If I was advising the Republicans, I would tell then to focus on what happened at Benghazi. .... what went wrong .... who was responsible. And if they want to focus on what happened after the attack .... focus on the false narrative that was given to the American public for why this attack happened, and point fingers at those who willfully lied to the American public for political gain. The American people are not stupid .... do your work and if you can make that the case that they have been lied to, the American voters (at least 55% to 60% fo them) will exact a political price on the Democrats in the next Congressional and (maybe) Presidential elections. But talking impeachment right now .... that just makes you look small and politically selfish.
