Also-ran Cain says Obama impeachment would be 'a great thing'
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/08/17/cain-says-obama-impeachment-would-be-a-great-thing/#more-171739

(CNN) – Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said it would be "great" to impeach the president, but that the Democratic controlled Senate would prevent such action.

On a conference call with bloggers Tuesday night, the former Godfather's Pizza CEO called the health care law and the Obama administration's stance over the Defense of Marriage Act impeachable offenses.

The news was first reported by POLITICO and later confirmed to CNN by the Cain campaign.

"There are a number of things where a case could be made in order to impeach him, but because Republicans do not control the United States Senate, they would never allow it to get off the ground," Cain said on the call. "The president is supposed to uphold the laws of this nation … and to tell the Department of Justice not to uphold the Defense of Marriage Act is a breach of his oath."

2. "The president is supposed to uphold the laws of this nation …"

Isn't that the Department of Justice and the :::cough::: Supreme Court?

They didn't seem to have anything against the War Criminal Bu$h.
