More like “unwilling” in the case of The Zero (or, given the millions spent on obscuring The Zero’s qualifications, maybe even “unable to LEGALLY” discharge his duties), but perhaps it’d work, if there were enough congresscritters who’ve not yet become members of the corrupt political elite:
Section 4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.
Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President…
At any rate, The Zero’s disconnectedness from reality would be enough to remove him, in my book. Who wants a delusional fantasist in the Oval Office anyway, save for those political elites who benefit from his insanity, the welfare plantation slaves and government “workers” who suck at the public teat and any others whose unenlightened, stupid selfishness cares not a whit for the destruction of the republic that seems to be The Zero’s goal?
So what you’re saying is that Sheriff Joe would be less destructive and ultimately more amusing? 🙂
Joe Arpaio? Oh, I’d vote for him–heck! I’d campaign for him!–for president in a heartbeat. “No bullshit!” would be an ideal campaign slogan for someone like him.
I think Obama is just getting his ticket punched as president so he can move on to the UN & take over, thus all of the $200m a day overseas trips. Thanks for reminding us of the law. I’m sure more & more people will be digesting it more than they thought they would just a few years ago.
If so, he’s making a hash out of it with all the feathers he’s ruffling abroad as well as here. Even when he bows and scrapes to foreigners, they dis him.
No, no. Joe Biden. The national sheriff. 🙂
Joe Biden. *sigh* I said during the 2008 campaign that The Zero had made a shrewd choice in Biden, because no matter how bad The Zero is and would be, who would want Cwazy Unca Joe at the helm? That’s just about the only thing scarier than another couple of years of The Zero. Incompetent and arrogant is one thing, but incompetent and crazy as a loon is something else entirely.
Of course, now that The Zero is beginning to look insane, the equation becomes a bit more problematic…
