The Relentless Logic (and Illogic) of Impeachment

Five Myths about Impeachment (Jonathan Turley) from the Washington Post 
"Obama is as likely to be impeached as he is to be installed as the next pontiff. And I say that as someone who has testified in Congress that this president has violated federal laws, unconstitutionally appointed various executive-branch officers and improperly transferred money."
The problem with Turley's comments and others who think impeachment won't happen is that the GOP is so beholden to their worst element, their House caucus will feel compelled to impeach -- and between the fringe leaders (like Cruz) and media extremists (like Limbaugh et al.) Republican lawmakers will feel compelled to  ignore "sensible" leaders like Boehner and do ... it ... anyway.
