1st call for impeachment by member of Congress
 A Republican congressman has told a left-leaning blog that if there is collective support, he would favor the impeachment of Barack Obama over his decision to stop defending the federal Defense of Marriage Act.Scott Keyes of ThinkProgress.org asked U.S. Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz.: "I know Newt Gingrich has came out (sic) and said if they don't reverse course here, we ought to be talking about possibly impeaching either Attorney General [Eric] Holder or even President Obama to try to get them to reverse course. Do you think that is something you would support?" Keyes asked. Franks replied: "If it could gain the collective support, absolutely. I called for Eric Holder to repudiate the policy to try terrorists within our civil courts, or resign. So it just seems like that they have an uncanny ability to get it wrong on almost all fronts." I wondered how long it would be with a republican majority in the house before the impeachment calls came. Lord knows Obama is corrupt enough and has done enough end rounds the law and the constitution for it. I don't want him impeached though, as he is digging his own electoral grave in 2012. The dhims might actually put someone palatable up if Bambi is impeached. Doubt much will come from this.
