GOP Congressman Threatens Impeachment if Obama Uses Executive Action for Gun Control


Texas Republican Rep. Steve Stockman threatened Monday afternoon that he would file articles of impeachment against President Barack Obama if he institutes gun control measures with an executive order.

Stockman warned that such executive orders would be “unconstitutional” and “infringe on our constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms.”

“I will seek to thwart this action by any means necessary, including but not limited to eliminating funding for implementation, defunding the White House, and even filing articles of impeachment,” Stockman said in a statement.

Hell yeah! What if Obama does get impeached? Biden for the rest of the term... But what darkness does he bring to the table?

Even the Dems can't stand Bison breath! He hasn't got the brains to know what a law is much less care what one is.

His idea of a good law would be to put beer dispensers in the high schools so the kids didn't have to go out to party!

Everyone thought Jr was stoopid, Biden is dumber than a box of rocks!

Hell, he'd probably quit (without too much prodding) from fear of having to actually do something for a change.

CONGRESSMAN THREATENS TO FILE ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT AGAINST OBAMA IF HE TRIES TO USE EXECUTIVE ORDER TO INSTITUTE GUN CONTROL - A Texas Congressman has threatened to stop Barack Obama's circumvention of the 2nd Amendment. Rep. Steve Stockman “I will seek to thwart this action by any means necessary, including but not limited to eliminating funding for implementation, defunding the White House, and even filing articles of impeachment, Any proposal to abuse executive power and infringe upon gun rights must be repelled with the stiffest legislative force possible,” he added. “Under no circumstances whatsoever may the government take any action that disarms any peaceable person — much less without due process through an executive declaration without a vote of Congress or a ruling of a court.” He concluded by claiming that an executive order would be not just “not just an attack on the Constitution,” but also an “attack on Americans. If the president is allowed to suspend constitutional rights on his own personal whims, our free republic has effectively ceased to exist,” he said.
