attempted  to impeach him in 2007 (which has never happened to Obama),

Uh ... false?  Like I'm sure Kucinich or some other loon might have put in a bill, but there was absolutely no real movement among Democrats to try to impeach Bush.  On the other hand, half of the Tea Party representatives have openly tossed around the idea of impeaching Obama.

Dennis Kucinich and Robert Wexler introduced articles of impeachment against Bush, which no Tea Party representatives have yet done. And don't tell me elected officials didn't openly toss about the idea of impeaching Bush: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_of_George_W._Bush#Political_views_and_actions

In the sense that Kucinich was an elected official, you are correct.  But you're blind if you think the "movement" to impeach Bush was bigger than the "movement" to impeach Obama.  Most Tea Party congressmen will openly discuss it, even if they aren't allowed to bring forth bills to do it.

Read the article, bro. You had Democrats in positions of leadership -- including the House Minority Leader, Pelosi herself -- saying impeachment was "on the table." Today, you have just some random TP backbenchers, most of which were elected in the past few elections and have little influence. Now, that said, Obama's still in his fifth year of office (at this stage in Bush's presidency, literally nobody was calling for impeachment yet), so perhaps the movement will get bigger. But it's absolutely undeniable, just by looking at the facts, that the movement to impeach Bush was far more serious than the one that currently exists against Obama.

Are you trolling?  Pelosi's phrase, in that Wikipedia page and everywhere else, was that impeachment was "off the table."  I honestly can't believe you simply made an error when you typed the she said it was "on the table."

Practically every Tea Party member of Congress hints at impeachment when they go home to Town Halls or when they appear on TV.  I don't know how you could miss that...
