Daily KOS: MUST-SEE: Bill Maher DARES Republicans to impeach Obama over Benghazi

Last night, Bill Maher dared the Republicans to just do it and impeach Obama over Benghazi.

So there you go, Republicans! You finally have your impeachable offense. Obama gave you a case of the sads. (audience laughter) So do it! Put your flag pin on and do it! I am serious, really serious. Rob Ford in rehab serious!
And here's why. Because when the Republicans impeached Clinton, his approval ratings shot up 10 points, to 73. Obama's approval is at 41. He could use a little of that impeachment mojo. So go ahead, haters. Make Benghazi your big issue, please. Put Barack Obama back on the ballot in 2014, so he can kick your ass a third time. (wild audience cheering and applause)

Isn't that what the RW has feared all along?

Stewart gets a lot of mileage out of his comments. Hopefully, this will tone the GOP down on Benghazi. It certainly shows how desperate they are.

Put him on the voters' minds in the 2014 midterm elections.

Remember when they held impeachment hearings on Clinton during his 6th year in office, Democrats gained seats.
