Movement to impeach Obama snowballing
'Energy is crazy high' as groups explode in all 50 states




WASHINGTON – The "Overpasses for Obama's Impeachment" movement is suddenly sweeping the nation.

WND first reported on the booming movement in July, and now the group claims it has mushroomed to 40,000 members across America to become "the largest grassroots movement in the nation" in the few weeks since it was launched in June.

The group's national website has links to Facebook pages of groups in all 50 states, plus Washington, D.C.

And it is on those Facebook pages that organizers recruit and inform, while fellow members share their experiences and bond, as the group's Internet-age version of grassroots democracy takes root and flourishes in cyberspace and on the streets.

The clout of "Overpasses for Obama's Impeachment" is growing so fast, Press Secretary Jennifer Hitt told WND, "We would like to get to the point we can help fund a 2016 candidate. The movement started with the main Facebook page, grew to the state Facebook pages, and now we are trying to get most people to register on our state forums on the website, Overpasses.org."

Hitt said the buzz isn't limited to one area: "It's nationwide. The energy is crazy high."

Members of Congress may think impeaching Obama is an impossible dream, but sentiment to oust the president appears to be rapidly gaining momentum across the nation.

As WND reported, just a little more than a week ago, Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas, said he believes there are enough votes in the House to impeach President Obama, but he fears such an effort would be futile because of the Democratic Party's grip on the Senate.

However, the mood of the country may be shifting after a relentless parade of Obama administration scandals, a number of severe setbacks to the president's signature health care law that is now more unpopular than ever, an economy still refusing to recover after five years and a foreign policy that has a good portion of the Middle East either in turmoil or at war.

That mood could be evidenced in the great interest in, and huge advance sales for, WND's latest book, "Impeachable Offenses: The Case for Removing Barack Obama from Office. "


Buzzfeed Politics declared, "It’s not just overpasses anymore," and the "book ushers in the Obama Impeachment movement."

"Impeachable Offenses," published by WND Books, has already gone into its third printing, co-author Aaron Klein said, “due to unexpected demand from bookstores.”

“Clearly a large segment of the population is concerned Obama has overstepped his executive authority and has used his office to circumvent Congress to change, ignore, or at times perhaps invent de facto law," he added.

WND Books CEO Joseph Farah told Buzzfeed, "We knew this was going to be a popular book. What we didn’t realize is that retailers would recognize it in advance and place large orders before the public weighed in."

The impeachment passion has been evident in growing numbers on the streets of America in recent weeks.

"Overpasses to Impeach Obama" has gone from local protests to nationwide events. The first "National Patriot Wave" was held Aug. 6, with rallies in more than 300 American cities and towns. "National Patriot Wave II" on Aug. 17 had planned for rallies in all 50 states.

Hitt said, "We refer to our national rallies as the Patriot Wave because it starts early on the east coast and spreads west (like a wave)."

She said up until then, cities held their own local rallies.


James Neighbors started the movement in Oklahoma after seeing footage of police shut down an anti-Obama overpass rally in San Diego.

In addition to the national website and the state Facebook pages, the group also has a national Twitter account @OverpassesUSA.

"I am also encouraging every member to give their info to two or three other people to make sure we can all keep in touch," said Hitt, concerned what would happen should their social media accounts close for some reason.

What the protesters do is simple but effective. They merely gather on highway overpasses and wave signs calling for the impeachment of Obama or urging drivers to "honk to impeach." The tactics attract attention, both from drivers and the media.

Their national website's mission statement says "Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment has a simple goal. The removal of the corrupt and criminal President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama."

It lists 12 reasons for his removal, including abdicating "his responsibility to enforce the laws of the United States against illegal immigration,"  failing to enforce and defend laws adopted by Congress such as the Defense of Marriage Act and for taking the nation to war against Libya "without the consent of the Congress of the United States."

The "Overpasses for Obama's Impeachment" movement has taken off by itself without much input from established groups such as the many tea parties around the country.














WND contacted a number of tea-party groups around the nation. Their reaction was typified by Chris Lawton of the tea party in Spartanburg, S.C., who said the movement "kind of snuck up on us," but now members are becoming involved.

Hitt said, "Most people I encounter are all for our movement. Then again, I live in the country. Our goal is to wake people up, and we are doing just that. Waves, honks and thumbs up way outnumber middle fingers."

On the IRS harassment of conservative and Christian organizations? Forty-nine percent said they agree that impeachment is appropriate, including 24.4 percent of the Democrats. And on the fishing trip the Obama administration took into AP reporters’ telephone records in search of a security breach that may have been done by his own administration, 48.6 percent said impeachment is appropriate. That included 26.1 percent of the Democrats.
