21 U.S. states will not allow syrian refugees

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.

Yes, I know all that, thanks.

And it still requires a criminal charge. That was the point of my question.

My point was it doesn't have to be what most courts would consider a criminal offense. It doesn't have to be a law in the books. Congress gets to decide if the president's actions are criminal or not, and they can impeach, convict and remove the president from office for something that would not be a crime for the rest of us. For example being a black, socialist, Muslim from Kenya. That's not a crime. Some of it isn't even true, but congress could impeach and convict on those grounds anyway if they wanted to. Many of those currently serving (and I use the term serving loosely) would like to do just that.
