Rep. Blake Farenthold (R-TX) claims that Republicans have the votes in the House to impeach President Barack Obama, but it would be a useless effort that could damage the country so we shouldn’t move forward with it.
“If we were to impeach the President tomorrow, you could probably get the votes in the House of Representatives to do it. But it would go to the Senate and he wouldn’t be convicted.”
“Aside from the fact that it wouldn’t be effective, I think there’s some potential damage to society that would be done with a failed attempt,” Farenthold concluded.
“What message do we send to America if we impeach Obama and he gets away with what he’s impeached for and is found innocent? What do we say then is okay,” the Congressman conclude. “Aside from the fact that it wouldn’t be effective, I think there’s some potential damage to society that would be done with a failed attempt at impeachment.”
Do you think we should try impeach Obama? Do you believe in his Farenthold’s line or thinking or is it just inherently wrong to do nothing about allowing criminal president sitting in the White House because of the ‘risks’?
You truly are in need of medical / Psychiatric assistance aren’t you??
W got 5,000 Americans MURDERED in Iraq & gave ISIS to the world, but the reTHUGS never thought to impeach him…
You’re a pitiful specimen of humanity , Merry Christmas
why don’t you date your articles. So annoying
Look at all the harm he is doing and look at the message you are sending by not stopping him
Impeach him. And if Senate doesn’t agree, post the names of those that don’t agree and America can vote to impeach them through petitions.
Do it
That makes absolutely NO sense!! Either you have the votes or you don’t and obviously you do not. But set aside Impeachment for a moment Not even the President is immune to charges of Treason and he has committed Treason. So Rather then Impeach him why has he not been removed from Office by the Military? Like any Person in this Country who commits Treason Charges should have been brought and he should have been arrested, he has Violated his Oath of Office the same oath every Military Person takes if any other Person had done even 10% of the things he has we would have been arrested, tried and convicted. People have faced firing squads for less. So save your bluster America Knows our Government Officials and the Joint Chiefs of Staff are as Corrupt as Obama
It is irrelevant if the votes seem to think it will fail. The FACTS that drive them to initiate the impeachment process remain. Up front one cannot be assured of the total votes as we may not be convinced of everyone’s vote. Things will change as the votes are cast. THE MAIN thing is to finally START the process and get the points mentioned. Getting the ball rolling will collect MORE AND MORE votes on the acgtion to show up. FINALLY !
It would only tear apart the country unless obama tries to call marshall law within the last 6 months of his presidency; If he does tgen It is my velief it was a calculated event and he must be impeached for the good of the country.
OMG you are all pathetic! It should have already been done! You are just as guilty if you dont impeach him. He needs to go to jail along with Hillary just to name two. You serve the American people not the other way around
Being PC ( politically correct) has gotten us where we are. He deserves impeachment and if the senate is going to be PC instead of looking out for America it’s time they go. Career politicians are getting rich selling the Americans down the crapper and it time for accountability in America. Obama is guilty. He should be impeached and than tried for Treason and crimes against America.
