Steve Stockman threatens to seek impeachment if Obama takes executive action on guns

President Obama won’t be sworn in for a second term until Sunday, with a public ceremony to follow on Monday.

But the Democrat is already facing threats from at least one member of Congress to seek his impeachment if the chief executive resorts to executive action to enact new measures on gun control.

U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Friendswood, said in a statement today that he would “thwart” any executive action by Obama “by any means necessary including but not limited to eliminating funding for implementation, defunding the White House and even filing articles of impeachment.”

Stockman has a history of fighting gun control. He ran for Congress in 1994 and defeated veteran Rep. Jack Brooks, D-Beaumont, who had sponsored legislation to ban the sale of automatic assault weapons.

Here we go with the *impeachment* BS again.

To Rep. Stockman I say this; I appreciate the thought, and you were doing real good, right up until you hit that part about impeachment.  If you don’t know this Sir, it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to successfully impeach Barack Obama with a Democratic Senate in place.

I am certain that you are a well-educated man Rep. Stockman but I would suggest that you look into the rules of government and particularly the Articles of Impeachment and what exactly it takes to impeach and remove a sitting President.

Here is a *thumbnail* version, I won’t bore you or my intelligent readers with ALL of the details.

The House of Representatives, by a simple majority vote, can pass Articles of Impeachment against the President. This basically works the same way as charging someone with a crime. Once those Articles are passed, the Senate acts like a jury, with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court as the presiding judge. The President is removed from office if two-thirds of the Senate votes to convict.

Do you even remotely believe that you could garner a 2/3 majority against Obama in THIS Senate?

You could have video evidence that Obama was a traitor against the USA, had murdered someone in cold blood and had molested a small dog and the Dems, and a few so-called GOP would do NOTHING. Until that kind of mind-set is overcome, Obama has little to worry about.

Seriously, I understand the passion and the desire to see Barack Obama removed from office but impeachment will NOT get the job done Sir!

Too many people have lost the ability to think rationally, Americans that call for Obama to be impeached are thinking with their hearts and not their heads. You see, I am all for the removal of what I see as an anti-American Socialist, one that stands against all that American Conservatives hold sacred, but over HALF of this nation voted that cretin back into office for a 2nd term.

That re-election took a special kind of STUPID, and is a STUPID that can’t be overcome with a simple act of impeachment.

If Americans don’t immediately begin to work as a team, work together, with the goal being the removal of Barack Obama and his regime of Leftists, Socialists, Commies and loons, this nation is done for.

    It’s an admirable thought — in consideration of the fact that the White House is considering NINETEEN Executive Orders on guns.

    Still and all, in the current clime and Senate, as you point out: not happening.

    Well,,, I watched the Bamster make his statements on TV today, say he will bring children from around the USA who wrote to him,,, to please ban these naughty “assault weapons and their 30 round magazines”!!!
    What a farce, only a liberal or inner-city simians would believe such shit.
    This is exactly following the rules Bill Ayres and Bernadine Dohrn preached to the Bamster 20 years ago!!
    I am sad that these socialists that surround him in the WHITE HOUSE having such a good time ruining this country and turning it into “their type of country”.
    We are turning into Venezuela.

    I dunno, I think that the attempt is valiant. My grandmother used to say, when encouraging me to try things that seemed impossible, “even a great forest can be destroyed by a single match” or something to that effect.

    It may seem stupid now, but it will send a message. Who knows, maybe if enough of the right people see that others are willing to take on the obama regime, they will join in, one by one, until, the unlikely seems possible. Now is the time to get the ball rolling for the 2014 elections. I know that it will not succeed, but as so many of the left like to say, it’s not about winning, it’s about getting the message out.

    Of course, I may be wrong, but it at least gives me hope that someone is willing to do something, even if it will lead to failure. For it may one day really happen. And it is for that day I greatly look forward to. A man can dream, can’t he?

      Of course we can dream, but I am thinking that impeaching that Socialist SON OF A BITCH is just a dream… I wish I weren’t so negative but until the GOP takes the Senate, it just can’t happen, the Dems won’t allow it to…

      • Bloviating Zeppelin says:

        And gosh, you know we got so much ACTION from DC when the GOP held the White House, the Senate AND the House. . .

        Yeah, those Republicans, they REALLY kicked ass when that happened! So MANY Conservative bills got passed and spending went down. . .

    There is no way in hell that Obama would ever be impeached but I still like this because it shows just how upset many of us are and we need people taking a tough stance. If people don’t stand up and take a tough stance Barack Obama is just going to roll right over us.

    My 2 cents: The house by majority vote SHOULD pass articles of impeachment. Here’s why: While I agree with you Fred, there’s NO WAY this worthless senate will ever come to a 2/3 majority on it and remove that worthless POS. It would at least make them do something other than pass bills like cowboy poetry…

    Think about this: IF Obama is having to defend himself in the senate, the senate will be rendered worthless on all other items in the mean time. The best we can hope for is a incompetent/incapable/useless senate until such time as America wakes up. IF it means the senate spends a couple months debating articles of impeachment its a WIN for America because NOTHING else is being done to damage us further.

    I have NO HOPE or PRAYER than an impeachment process would succeed, but it might succeed in its failure by just stopping the senate from stepping further on our throats.
