This is the first thing you see when you go to Steve Stockman's campaign site right now:
So is Stockman just trolling for email addresses and contributions? Or is he really going to try to do this? Needless to say, he can't impeach Obama singlehandedly, though his fans may not be smart enough to know that. I guess he can try to file formal articles of impeachment, ridiculous though they may be -- eleven House Republicans filed impeachment articles for Eric Holder in November, though nothing's been heard about this effort ever since.
Jonathan Bernstein used to believe that the filing of formal impeachment articles against Obama was only a matter of time, and he ran a contest asking people to guess who'd file first and when. Bernstein no longer expects this, but I say that if it's going to happen, it'll be Stockman doing the filing, sometime the week before the Texas Senate primary, which will be March 4. So I'm going with February 27.
Surely it matters that Stockman isn't on the Judiciary Committee? I thought I recalled from the GOP's Clinton adventure that the process starts there.

ReplyDeleteHe goes to prove, once again, that the state of Texas has more nuts than in all of the Planter's companies warehouses - combined!
ReplyDeleteI have suggested we give it back to Mexico, but my Mexican friends tell me they don't want it.
ReplyDeletePerhaps we could us it to rid ourselves of our oversupply of nuclear warheads.
No fear.
