I simply adore the ads from Google alongside. One reads "Impeach Obama now!" That's called getting ahead of yourself. Premature ejaculation seems more prevalent on the right, I fear. Still 60+ days before he becomes President and the "Impeach Obama now!" campaign has already begun. That's the sort of marketing that brings Christmas advertising into late August.
WASHINGTON (AFP) — Barack Obama has not even been sworn in yet as the 44th president of the United States but groups are springing up online calling for his impeachment.
On Facebook, an "Impeach Barack Obama" group has attracted more than 700 members and a lively debate about the Democrat's election victory on Tuesday over Republican John McCain.
Another Facebook group of the same name has 160 members and urges others to join because "we might as well get a head start on the impeachment of Obama."
"There are a lot of Americans out there that do not fully understand the concept of Socialism or Communism which is why they've elected Obama as president," it says.
Yet another Facebook group, "Impeach Barack Hussein Obama," has 160 members.
It decries that Obama "has voiced support for various unconstitutional programs such as the assault weapons ban, universal healthcare, and various schemes for wealth distribution."
"What are we going to do about it? IMPEACH HIM!" it says.
Obama still has some way to go, however, to equal the number of "Impeach George Bush" groups on Facebook, which lists at least 95 such groups with varying membership.
Obama is to be sworn into office on January 20, 2009. He will be the first African-American president of the United States.
This is great on many levels. If I do well in the game, I'm a winner. If I do poorly in the game, Obama falls off the face of the planet. I can't lose!

Let me apologize now. The above swipe was mean spirited and unfair. But I just couldn't get myself to allow a set up like that to go un-spiked.
