ARTICLE OF IMPEACHMENT EXHIBITED BY THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN THE NAME OF ITSELF AND OF
ALL OF THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AGAINST BARACK HUSSEIN
OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT OF
ITS IMPEACHMENT AGAINST HIM FOR HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS IN USURPING THE
EXCLUSIVE PREROGATIVE OF CONGRESS TO COMENCE WAR UNDER ARTICLE 1, SECTION 8,
CLAUSE 11 OF THE CONSTITUTION.
ARTICLE I
In his conduct of the office of President of the United
States, Barack Hussein Obama, in violation of his constitutional oath
faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the
best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United
States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws
be faithfully executed, has usurped the exclusive power of Congress to initiate
war under Article I, section 8, clause 11 of the United States Constitution by
unilaterally commencing war against the Republic of Libya on March 19, 2011,
declaring that Congress is powerless to constrain his conduct of the war, and
claiming authority in the future to commence war unilaterally to advance
whatever he ordains is in the national interest. By so doing and declaring,
Barack Hussein Obama has mocked the rule of law, endangered the very existence
of the Republic and the liberties of the people, and perpetrated an impeachable
high crime and misdemeanor as hereinafter elaborated.
I. THE IMPEACHMENT POWER
1. Article II, Section IV of the United States Constitution
provides: “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.”
2. According to James Madison’s Records of the Convention,
2:550; Madison, 8 Sept., Mr. George Mason objected to an initial proposal to
confine impeachable offenses to treason or bribery:
Why is the provision restrained to Treason & bribery
only? Treason as defined in the Constitution will not reach many great and
dangerous offences. Hastings is not guilty of Treason. Attempts to subvert the
Constitution may not be Treason as above defined–As bills of attainder which
have saved the British Constitution are forbidden, it is the more necessary to
extend: the power of impeachments.
3. Delegates to the Federal Convention voted overwhelmingly
to include “high crimes and misdemeanors” in Article II, Section IV of the
United States Constitution specifically to ensure that “attempts to subvert the
Constitution” would fall within the universe of impeachable offences. Id.
