Geez, Republicans, don't be ridiculous! Will you at least allow her to sit in the President's chair first?

*  You'll have to pardon my interpretation, but it seems to me a seditious congress is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. And that's what we have; a congress hellbent on destroying the fabric of our government. They do it with MONEY!
*  Here we go again and again and again. Are Republicans acknowledging Clinton could win the election? Clinton scares the bejeebers out of the GOP so of course, they would be making contingency plans to "impeach" her on the first day when they still have not proven she broke any laws! So this is how Republicans rule.
*  Republicans lost their moral compass long ago, beginning with hate filled rhetoric from Fox and those many Koch brothers misadventures into conservative politics. Comments from their depraved tea party members have lost their impact, nobody cares.
*  ... The hard right of the Repubs is completely unbalanced mentally. I only take exception to comparing them to clowns--professional clowns are honest entertainers, and I'm sure as good on average as the general population. These Repub. bomb-throwers don't care what kind of damage they do to the public good in order to keep playing their political games.
*  The GOTP's favorite sport, when they are not arguing about finding a speaker, is impeaching Democratic Presidents. Too bad the only one to leave office rather than face inevitable impeachment and removal was a Repub.
    *  I think they're still pretty angry about that. How dare we keep them from using the government for their own ends! But, they still haven't learned their lesson.

GOP Congressman Already Floating Impeachment For Hillary Clinton

She hasn't even secured the Democratic nomination.

By Amanda Terkel, October 19, 2015

Hillary Clinton isn't president yet. She hasn't even won the Democratic nomination. But a Republican congressman is already getting ready for the opportunity to impeach her -- on the first day of her hypothetical presidency.

Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) recently spoke with talk radio host Matt Murphy and said the real issue with Clinton's use of a private email server as secretary of state is "how many lives she put at risk by violating all rules of law that are designed to protect America's top-secret and classified information from falling into the hands of our geopolitical foes who then might use that information to result in the deaths of Americans."

Brooks added Republicans are going to make sure this issue follows Clinton into office, should she be elected president in 2016. 

"And in my judgement, with respect to Hillary Clinton, she will be a unique president if she is elected by the public next November, because the day she's sworn in is the day that she's subject to impeachment because she has committed high crimes and misdemeanors," he said. 

Brooks' office did not return a request for future details about the impeachment plan.

Clinton is scheduled to testify Thursday before the House Select Committee on Benghazi. The committee has taken a beating in recent days after a couple of self-inflicted wounds from its own members questioning the nonpartisan nature of the panel.

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) applauded the taxpayer-funded committee for helping damage Clinton's presidential prospects -- and then spent the following week trying to backtrack. Rep. Richard Hanna (R-N.Y.) said "a big part" of the Benghazi investigation was designed to go after Clinton rather than get to the bottom of the attacks. And a former Republican staffer on the committee also said his bosses were singularly focused on going after the former secretary of state.
