As the endless Benghazi "scandal" drags on, it made me wonder what the chances were that, if 9-11 happened on his watch, President Obama would have been impeached. I suppose it would matter greatly what the composition of Congress was.
I think there is a very real chance it would have happened. What do you think?

Yup, things wouldn't have been "conveniently" overlooked either.
I don't accept the premise either IRL, but in answer to the OP's question....
