He’s back! Remember Floyd Brown? He has regrets, too.
The far right has already called Obama a socialist, a communist, and a fascist, among other names, and has compared him to Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin. So it should come as no surprise that the organized Impeach Obama movement is now underway — with a longtime conservative flamethrower at the helm.
Enough is enough. We’re calling for the Impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama. And if you agree, you can join us right now.
That message greets visitors to ImpeachObamaCampaign.com, a slickly produced site that features frequent gratuitous use of the president’s middle name, ominous photos that seem designed to accentuate his African features — and an impeachment petition.
The effort is led, publicly, by Floyd Brown, a former GOP activist best-known for producing the Willie Horton ad that helped scupper Michael Dukakis’s 1988 presidential bid, and who pushed for the impeachment of Bill Clinton as early as 1994 — long before Clinton ever laid eyes on Monica Lewinsky.
But Brown — who George Stephanopoulos once called “a slimy thug for hire” — portrays Clinton as a giant next to Obama. “In hindsight, I long for the days of the Bill Clinton presidency,” he said in an interview with TPMmuckraker. “Bill Clinton was ten times the president Obama will ever be.”
The new campaign, which teamed with World Net Daily for its launch yesterday, is technically a project of the Policy Issues Institute (PII), a blandly named advocacy organization run by Brown and James Lacy, a southern California election lawyer. PII’s registered address is the same as that of the three-person law firm run by Lacy, his wife Janice Lacy — whose bio says she’s a former deputy counsel for the Republican National Committee — and a third person, William Wewer
