(2014-08-04) — Because House Republicans have steadfastly refused to impeach President Barack Obama, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) today announced that her caucus would advance articles of impeachment against the president in early September.

Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi shook her fist in rage against Republicans as she announced that she’ll file articles of impeachment against President Barack Obama in September, in advance of the next Congressional campaign-finance reporting deadline.

The move comes in the run-up to the 2014 midterm elections, as Democrat fundraising goals outstrip receipts, and some polls show the GOP could recapture the Senate.

“An attack on the president is an attack on all Americans,” Rep. Pelosi said. “Republicans, deep in their hearts, have wanted to impeach President Obama since before he was senator. We Democrats will introduce these articles of impeachment to unmask the true feelings of most Republicans, and to give Democratic lawmakers the opportunity to stand boldly at his side.”

A fundraising letter immediate went out from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee with the subject line, “GOP-Run House Tries to Impeach President Obama!”

White House spokesman Josh Earnest, called the impending impeachment “no surprise given the hostility of Republicans toward America’s first black president.”

“The fact that the Democrats had to launch this impeachment effort,” Earnest said, “is just another example of John Boehner’s do-nothing Republican majority.”

President Obama, informed of his looming impeachment, reportedly said, “Cha-ching.”

I understand that this is satire. But I'm just not sure I understand who is being satirized.

I mean... we know that the right wing talking heads like to beat the impeachment call.

We know that impeachment threats by the talking heads leads to increased revenue for the democratic party fundraising.

We know that the House won't actually try to impeach Obama, because he hasn't done anything worth impeaching.

And, we know that a number of people on cbid want to see Obama impeached.

All I can read out of this is that the GOP talking-heads and cbid posters are actually undercover Democratic fundraisers....
