Sign of the times

I happened to drive through Maplewood Village (NJ) today and saw a fairly large group of people gathered around a petition table in front of the post office where a large sign saying "Impeach Obama" was posted, together with a smaller sign saying "Bring back Glass-Steagall."

The whole thing seemed to be sponsored by Lyndon LaRouche, but what was surprising was how many people seemed to be signing the petition.

Obviously, impeachment is neither appropriate nor is it the solution to this problem, but I certainly can sympathize with the frustration that might lead people to sign this.

Frankly, I'm praying that the man resigns (or at least decides not to run in 2012).
