Congressman Has Had Enough: We Have a Duty to Impeach Obama

Veteran congressman Walter Jones has long held the assertion that Republicans should impeach President Obama if he attempts to change the requirements of immigration law by executive action.

Appearing on America’s Forum, Jones reiterated his stance saying “We have a Constitutional duty to ensure that whoever is the President of the United States, that he or she… upholds the Constitution.”

The North Carolina congressman has said Obama’s executive actions must be fought as a Constitutional issue involving the separation of powers.

The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the right to impeach the president.

Jones said he doesn’t particularly enjoy the idea of impeaching anyone, but it becomes a necessity when the President is making “decisions to the detriment of our country.”

Take a look…

 

Would the GOP ever truly consider impeaching the President, and would it be a good thing for the country?

  • Yes Get him the hell out of there. He has destroyed our nation. He worships Satan and he does as Satan tells him to do. If you don't get him out America is going up in smoke. Impeach him now.

  • Impeach this traitor NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have good police officers being killed and this SOB is blaming the police and doing NOTHING but trying to incite more killing to ADVANCE HIS OWN AGENDA . PERIOD !

  • President Obama's Executive Order gives 5M people the chance to come in and pay for the right to give their name and addresses, pay taxes, receive NO federal benefits, DO NOT become citizens and go to the end of the legal immigration line.

    Given that Congress gives the President enough money to deport 400,000 people per year, and after taking off the 5M folks covered by the Executive Order leaves around 6.5M people. At the current funding level it will take 16 YEARS to deport the 6.5M.

    Who's fault is it that the President has to step in, offer some small comfort to people who have been here more than 5 years and/or have children that are American citizens?

    Congress.

  • Yes, many of us want Obama impeached. However, easier said than done. The House of Representatives can and could easily vote to impeach. The Senate needs to vote to Convict under articles of impeachment. Conviction takes a 2/3's vote, 67 Senators. The Republicans have only 54 Senators. They need 13 Democrats to vote for conviction. They may be able to get 4 or 5. But, probably never 13. A better way to get this guy out of office or at least to tie him up for the remainder of his term, is two fold. First, there are a multitude of lawsuits winding their way through the judicial system. If the Supreme Court votes positively on any or all of these lawsuits then Obama's programs are dead in the water. Second, the House Judiciary Committee has Subpoena power. They should Subpoena Obama to testify before Congress on all of the scandals he is involved in. If he refuses to testify that is called Contempt of Congress. He can then be arrested and jailed, by the Sargent at Arms, until he agrees to testify. If he does testify before Congress, and lies even once, that is a felony and he can be prosecuted. The Senate would not matter as they would not be involved. Now, this is all predicated on a House of Representatives that has members who have spines. Since we all know that these Representatives don't represent anybody or anything but themselves, then it will be business as usual, deceit and obfuscation.

  • The RINO's in Congress won't do a damned thing. It will take a bloody revolution to get rid of the traitors.

  • Precisely! But what's yo with Jones that he has tve Kahunas to speak so boldly when virtually akl his "colleagues" are so totally whored up they don't. dare defy their pumps and Johns.

  • HE SHOULD BE ARRESTED AND BROUGHT UP ON CRIMINAL CHARGES AND DEPORTED AS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN!
