Gerald R. Ford once said, "An impeachable offense is whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history." Given that a sitting Supreme Court Justice was once impeached by the house (but not found guilty by the senate) for being overly partisan I'd say he is probably right. Having said that a simple majority in the house could impeach Obama, but it takes a super majority in the senate to convict and the repujacunts don't have enough seats for that. Besides I'm not sure the house really wants to open that can of worms. One day in the not to distant future the shoe could be on the other foot.
