WATCH: Congressman Says House Has Enough Votes to Impeach Obama (VIDEO)

WATCH: Congressman Says House Has Enough Votes to Impeach Obama (VIDEO)



There are countless reasons that Obama should be immediately impeached but, for whatever reason, Congress has done little to call for it — until now.
Obama is behind the Fast and Furious, Benghazi, IRS, and NSA scandals. He has unilaterally bypassed Congress to change laws (including his signature heathcare legislation). He violated the War Powers Act to militarily intervene in Libya and does not believe he needs congressional approval to bomb Syria. He thinks he has the power to indefinitely detain American citizens on American soil without charge or trial and he is committed to piling on as much debt as humanly possible onto the backs of unborn generations.
If Obama really believes he is a king (as his actions suggest), he is sorely mistaken. It is time for him to go.
Representative Bill Flores (R-TX) spoke at a townhall meeting recently and told the attendees that “if the House had an impeachment vote, it would impeach the president.”
Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX) recently distributed “Impeachable Offenses: The Case for Removing Barack Obama from Office” to every single member of the House of Representatives. He says that impeachment is “a last resort; it’s a very serious step. And, quite frankly, this president has done a lot of actions which [...] could be challenged in court.” He cites Obama “tearing out pages” of his own healthcare law and granting members of Congress exemptions from participating in it as two of the many justifications for Obama’s impeachment. He continues, “should we decide [impeachment is] an option we can take, we will go ahead and move forward.” You can listen to his full commentary here:
Flores and Stockman are not the only members of Congress and the Senate who have publicly offered impeachment as an option for finally putting and end to Obama’s tyrannical rampage.

Other members of Congress who have made comments about impeachment include Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif.; Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.; Rep. Kerry Bentivolio, R-Mich.; Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas; Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas; Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla.; Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah; Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C.; Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn.; Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas; Rep. Trey Radel, R-Fla.; Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa; and Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla.
“I think he’s breaking the law if he strikes without congressional approval,” Hunter told the Washington Times regarding Obama’s plan to bomb Syria. “And if he proceeds without Congress providing that authority, it should be considered an impeachable offense.”
It seems every day we learn of a new way Barack Obama has unabashedly violated the Constitution he was elected to uphold, enforce, and protect. To quote Rep. Justin Amash, his actions are “setting the stage for something very dangerous.” Congress must step up and hold  him accountable. Impeachment would also pose a credible threat to any future president by sending a clear message that the American people simply will not stand for having a  king. If we do nothing, that threat is lost.
