The news that Obama has won a Nobel peace prize was weird — and don’t get me wrong, I don’t think he has done badly at promoting peace, I just don’t think he’s made the kind of exceptional effort that something with the prestige of the Nobel ought to reward — but here’s something much, much crazier: WhirledNutDaily has begun a campaign to impeach Obama. You might be wondering on what grounds they would commit this act…but they don’t seem to have anything specific. I just got email from WND begging for donations for their little crusade, and here’s the best reason they offer, from some wingnut radio personality, Tammy Bruce.

“… ultimately, it comes down to… the fact that he seems to have, it seems to me, some malevolence toward this country, which is unabated.”

That ranks right up there with the “he looked at me funny” excuse for starting a fight.

The whole piece is a detestable incitement to take any action necessary to bring down Obama. Look at their ‘reasoning’:

Make no mistake. We’re now in the middle of a bloodless coup –
the takeover of an entire nation by the hate-America crowd – a cold-blooded gang that despises American’s
prosperity, our standing in the world, our trust in God and our generosity and goodness.

    
America is a monument to the triumph of freedom. When Barack Hussein Obama thinks about freedom… he sees a world in which some people, due
to personal initiative and good fortune, will do better than others… live better than others.

    
And in that regard, he is right. But Barack Obama sees that as unfair. Where you see freedom, liberty and the opportunity for
any American to be all that he or she can be, Obama sees greed and bigotry.

    
And, like so many on the far-left before him, going all the way back to Karl Marx, he believes that it’s his mission to promote
“equality of outcome” over
“equality of opportunity”
even if Americans must learn to live in chains to make it happen
(in fact, servitude to the iron will of government will be required).

    
That worldview makes Barack Hussein Obama a very dangerous man and one of the greatest threats to your personal liberty today.

    
That dangerous worldview also explains why he has already gobbled-up major banks and why the government now controls more and
more of our money – yours and mine.

    
And if you wake up one day to discover you’re broke… don’t be surprised…
and while you’re at it, don’t feel bad either because at least everyone will be broke…
destitute… under the iron yoke of government… but everything will be fair
and equal… that’s what extremists, like Obama, mean when they use
the term… "social justice."

    
And he’ll make it happen… he can make it happen… he’s already started to
make it happen.  Barack Hussein Obama is Bernie Madoff with the political power of the presidency at
his disposal.

    
That dangerous worldview explains the sudden and shocking erosion of your freedom to make a living, to run your own business,
whether a Mom-and-Pop grocery store or General Motors.

    
That dangerous worldview explains why his Attorney General, Eric Holder, despises the 2nd Amendment… why, if he had his way,
he would take away our guns, leaving us defenseless against gangs and hoods – and, more to the point, against Obama’s own
shock-troops from
ACORN or SEIU. Remember, it was the healthy and rational fear of government that led to the inclusion of the
2nd Amendment in the Constitution of the United States.

    
And that dangerous worldview explains why Obama intends to take away your freedom to choose your own doctor… your own
treatment. Wherever government controls health care, bureaucrats decide who gets treatments… who gets transplants…
who gets dialysis… who gets costly medication… and who needs to die for the common good.

    
What can we do to stop this monomaniac… this American dictator? There’s only one answer.

    
Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution reads: “The President, Vice President and all civil
officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery,
or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”

It goes on and on like that — you can just picture the authors frothing at the mouth.

So I guess I’d have to say that maybe a Nobel was a useful counterbalance to the lunacy going on here.
