GOP Rep. Threatening Impeachment: Obama Using Children Like Saddam Hussein Did To Push His Laws

Source: Mediaite

Another day, another threat of impeachment. This time, the threat is coming from Republican congressman Steve Stockman. Stockman sat down with Greta Van Susteren tonight to explain his outrage over President Obama potentially issuing executive orders on gun control tomorrow. He observed that Obama will be joined by young children tomorrow, comparing the president’s use of children to Sadaam Hussein‘s.

(...)

Stockman said that he has enough people on his side, telling Van Susteren he is counting her in his corner. Van Susteren laughed it off, saying she has no “dog in this fight.” Stockman ended the interview with an offhand, open-ended remark about Obama bringing children to his announcement.

“He’s even using children, reminds me of Sadaam Hussein when he used kids to…”


Van Susteren told him that was “a bit of a stretch.”

Homer: Well of course, there couldn't be a heaven if there weren't a hell.
Bart: Who's in there?
Homer: Oh, uh, Hitler's dog... and that dog Nixon had, what's his name? Um, Chester...

Kids deserve a LOBBYING EFFORT as much as the domestic terrorist group NRA or ground water contaminating fracking companies.

So what? The NRA and Rep Stockman obviously do not like American children very much.

Yeah, he used some kids as props to illustrate his points.

So what? He's a politician.

If you have proof of actual crimes, Mr Stockman, then go ahead with impeachment. But if all you have is a critique of theatrics, you got nothing.

"Car nut" - Everybody knows one.

"Art nut" - Often donates to a local museum

"Gun nut" - Dirty word.. why is that? Something to do with bringing attention to one's paranioa, lack of manhood, weakness and low self-esteem more likley.
