GOP Rep.: House ‘Probably’ Has the Votes to Impeach Obama
Mediaite ^ | 6/16/14 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 06/16/2014 6:10:23 PM PDT by Nachum

A Republican congressman said in a radio interview today that the House probably has the votes to impeach President Obama, if things got so bad that impeachment became their only recourse. Congressman Lou Barletta told Gary Sutton that the issue of impeachment is an important one to address with Obama “absolutely ignoring the Constitution and ignoring the laws.” A couple of Republicans have floated the idea of impeachment and the House having enough votes for impeachment before, and Barletta’s no different, claiming there’s a good chance impeachment could pass the Republican-led House if they took a vote. “For those that

The Oligarch’s owned Arlen Specter since the Kennedy assassination cover-up. Remember the ‘magic bullet’?

Don’t wait on the senate. Get the proceedings started now. Use the evidence in the upcoming elections. If the public were more aware, they may not vote for those who went along.

I agree.

Who cares. The Senate has nothing to do with impeachment. The House should duty their duty and not think about the Senate

They should take a vote each and every day. They should impeach the squalid-one each and every day. He appears to do something unconstitutional each and every day. Even though the senate would probably vote to not convict this criminal, Clown Prince nobama would have a great historical footnote as the President impeached daily for a couple years. My preference would be just to arrest the grifter, anti-American scum and exile him (after extensive water-boarding to find out who he really is). Exile his grifter family also.

You’d d*mnb well better send that lying POS grifter to the jail he (if indeed he is a he).

Really, considerting the treason that trash has committed, let the military take care of him...in their traditional way.

“No way 2/3 of the Senate would find him guilty.”

Wait until January, and if you take the Senate go for it. If the Rats complain, invoke the Reid Rule.

If the embassy complex in Iraq falls to muslim murderers and there are Youtube videos of hundreds of Americans being shot or being raped or having their heads sawed off, then maybe the House will impeach Obama. And perhaps the outcry of Americans to get rid of the illegal alien in White House will convince the Senate to convict and remove him, but I wouldn’t put any money on that.

Agreed. Start it up. Impeach him everyday. Heap SHAME on this miserable bastarde. Let it bring attention to his misdeeds. Yes, at first the media will throw mud back at conservatives and “white America’ for doing so, but eventually, the crap will start sticking to the wall.

Our side needs to take the gloves off YESTERDAY!!

25th deals with filling a POTUS vacancy, not creating it.

Quite correct. Was Rep Barletta in diapers in ‘98?
Democrat Senators don’t even have the guts to publicly
criticize Obama and they would vote to try him in the Senate? That won’t happen even if the GOP takes control of
the Senate.

I think you could make a case for it since its getting to the point that the guy is incompetent to carry out his duties.
