Barack Obama needs to be impeached now.

Hello, Pro. I would like to begin this debate by stating my thankfulness for you opening this up, and I wish you luck in this debate.I. Obama Wars?It is certainly true that a big part of Barack Obama's presidency was waging wars with foreign nations. However, these wars were not initiated by Obama's administration or the president himself. If the main reference in Pro's mention of "illegal wars" is Iraq/Iran, such a conflict became of the 9/11 attacks, during George H.W Bush's presidency in 2001. As he had called it, the "war on terror". It is true that the war continued under Obama's presidency, and American casualities over in the M.E only continued to be lost. However, this cannot be blamed on the president as a misdemeanor - to put it into Pro's words - for he could only do so much in trying to negotiate with such a war and such a stubborn opposition. America's main interest seemed to be invading the land, fracking and drilling, and "protecting" Israel. The two following links will provide enough of a background for Bush's speech, as well as his motive behind the 'War on Terror', which to most Americans remains unjustified by true means. As the attacks that 9/11became a large portion of history because of, were performed by Al-Qaeda members in different lands than either of the target nations. http://www.theguardian.com...http://www.usnews.com...While the wars were illegal such were not started by Obama, and at this point, it seems as though the damage has been done. II. Obama's Treason? While it is true that Obama has done some things outside the boundaries of protocol, it cannot be held over his head. He may not have been the most ideal president for the circumstances the nation had been facing, but it must be understood that Congress was a primary obstacle in Obama attempting to make the progress he felt was right in America's interest. It's not necessarily easy for a liberal president to get bills past a conservative Congress, and thus that was more the problem than he himself. There are currently rather indiscriminate petitions in place to impeach the president. To begin with, it is important to understand what 'impeachment' is in the legal system.When someone in the government is suspected of having committed a crime, and is thereby formally accused by the Supreme Court, they are being impeached. The accusation itself is the impeachment, what becomes of it is a trial/formal hearing where the said government official [just as with any other trial/appeal of innocence] is proven either innocent or guilty. However, the president is not deserving of needing to face such a thing. Obama has not been "aiding" any enemies. In fact, foreign aid is an expense America's government takes lightly, it's one of the lowest expenses in the revenue. In the following article from nationalpriorities.com, a media outfit that tracks stastics for federal affairs, it is described that federal expenditures on foreign aid total to 1% of the federal spending. 1% is substanitally lower than many people. And to put it in the words of Bill Maher, "you couldn't find it with a jeweler's eye." https://www.nationalpriorities.org...Now, in 2013 the U.S, according to the same aritlce, spend an approximation of $14 billion during the fiscal year. Yet, that is significantly less than it spends on other federal affairs. While it is true that spending $14 billion on foreign aid doesn't help the debt/decifit, it is the least of America's concern economically. III. Obama's Bill of Rights/Constitution?When discussion him, Obama's opposers often bring up the Consitution and Bill of Rights, Pro seems to have followed this troupe rather well. Most refer to the following examples during his presidency: Federal legalization of gay marriage. Federal legalization of medicinal marijuana. Stricter control on guns/attempts to regulate guns after numerous acts of terror involving firearms. Social aid becoming a more commonly distributed resource (A.K.A the "47%"). While such things did result in a more liberal and progressive America, not all of them were within the president's control. The federal legalization of both medicinal marijuana and gay marriage was on the part of the Supreme Court of the United States, not on the shoulders of the president. Gun control, on the other hand, is a common liberal idea and became of his obviously leftist ideologies. But that's not the worst of what came down the pipe during his presidency. Social aid is used to assist people who are left in poor economic conditions due to lack of opportunity [education, work, etc. being too expensive], which liberals try to get rid of. However, when a liberal president is battling a stubborn Congress, it becomes hard to do much of anything they see fit. As whether or not their bills are past is left to the discretion of the Congress, not the president.
