Bad idea

Michele Bachman says that if President Obama invokes the 14th Amendment and meets America's financial obligations despite a failure on the part of Congress to raise the debt limit, the Republican House will impeach him.

The nuttiness of Bachman's own position and the huge political bump the president would get from yet another ill-considered- and inevitably, failed-  Republican attempt to impeach a Democratic president are not the only reason why this is a bad idea. Jay Leno anticipated the chief objection the other night.

Three words: President Joe Biden.
