As the depth of corruption in the Obama administration continues to grow deeper and deeper with each new scandal, the call for the president’s impeachment keeps getting louder.
Obama is guilty of a number of illegal actions, some of which Sen. Ted Cruz complied into a list of 76 specific offenses.
His lies concerning Benghazi, his laziness to take action to rectify the VA scandal, and his possible connection to the IRS targeting of conservative groups, justifies the fervor to have him impeached and removed from office.

It was clear that the movement to impeach the president was taking off when pundits like Judge Jeanine Pirro and former Florida Representative Allen West both made cases illustrating how Obama violated his oath of office.
Now, it seems a recent piece written by M. Northrop Buechner and published by Forbes on the topic of impeachment has went viral, helping to further push the idea out into the public.
via Forbes:
Since President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act into law, he has changed it five times. Most notably, he suspended the employer mandate last summer. This is widely known, but almost no one seems to have grasped its significance.
The Constitution authorizes the President to propose and veto legislation. It does not authorize him to change existing laws. The changes Mr. Obama ordered in Obamacare, therefore, are unconstitutional. This means that he does not accept some of the limitations that the Constitution places on his actions. We cannot know at this point what limitations, if any, he does accept.
By changing the law based solely on his wish, Mr. Obama acted on the principle that the President can rewrite laws and—since this is a principle—not just this law, but any law. After the crash of Obamacare, many Congressmen have implored the President to change the individual mandate the same way he had changed the employer mandate, that is, to violate the Constitution again.
Those who currently hold political office, and who want to keep our system of government, need to act now. Surely, rejection of the Constitution is grounds for impeachment and charges should be filed. In addition, there are many other actions that Congressmen can and should take—actions that will tell Mr. Obama that we have seen where he is going and we will not let our country go without a fight.

Buechner is 100 percent right on this. The president has little concern for the rule of law as laid out by the Constitution, believing himself to be a monarch with unlimited power rather than an elected official.
When a person in “normal” society rejects the law and decides to do what they want, these individuals are usually thrown in jail for the crimes they commit. Why do American citizens have to obey the law, but Obama doesn’t?
It’s time for the president to be reminded that no one is above the law, not even him. The best way to accomplish this is to impeach him immediately and remove him from office.
