Political gain?!? Seriously?? Where have you been boy?!? He doesn't give a damn about American lives, just the perks of being President! Gawd, it's everywhere. Selfies and flirting with the Danish Prime Minister during a Funeral for a Great World Leader is just an example. Believe me...These Political Figures LOVE the 'Perks'!...But I've had the pleasure of flying a 'new Boss' who is quite the opposite, so not all love them, but most do, and Obama ranks at the top.
And why Impeachment?
Because he has misused Executive Authority time and time again, deliberately, by bypassing the 'Constitutional' Authority of Congress, who after passing Laws, he would then 'amend' them without the approval of Congress, that's why! He has continually violated the Constitution that he swore an OATH to uphold and protect. But he's such a vindictive, arrogant, power-hungry sack of [poo], why should we be surprised at anything this lying turd does to disgrace the Office of President. But stand by! He has announced that he will use whatever BS ability he has to bypass Congress to push whatever agenda he can force down Americas throat while he's still in office!
BTW Pepsi, you old enough to 'have' to buy Obamacare? Probably not. But if you were, I'm sure this cesspool project he calls 'Affordable (LOL) Healthcare' would pry your eyes open on that subject alone. Glad you don't vote.
Careful WD, I can feel your blood pressure building all the way here in Wisconsin. Would hate to lose you when you just got back.

pretty sure we have mckinley to blame for that, with all the imperialism, and stuff
Hobo, as far as that goes, Manifest Destiny was actually around since the 1840's when there was the misguided belief that Americans and their way of life was superior to all other cultures, much to the woe of the Native Americans. It helped fuel the spread of settlers to the west and take lands from those who lived there for generations beforehand. Teddy comes to mind mainly because he was a firm believer in this Manifest Destiny when dealing with other nations. "Speak softly, but carry a big stick." And as I stated before, it was a mistake in foreign policy that has plagued us to this very day.
