FORT WORTH (CBS 11 NEWS) – A surprising statement from one of Texas’ top leaders: President Obama should be impeached. This came from Texas Lt. Governor David Dewhurst, who is running for re-election and appeared at a Tea Party candidates forum.

Dewhurst warned that freedoms are being trampled on, and so the President should be impeached. Later he fleshed out his thoughts for the Texas Observer’s Christopher Hooks. “I think this President, Barack Obama, has disregarded federal law. He has tried to do things which are not authorized under federal law. Things he’s disregarded such as immigration. He’s not, not following our federal drug laws. And he has created winners and losers in Obamacare where he has no authority,” according to Dewhurst, who pointed out the extensions given to unions and big businesses.

“I think the Lt. Governor looks at the President’s very open statement that he was going to work around the Constitution, and work around the Congress. And use the executive branch to basically create law in many cases.” Weekley adds, “I think he’s expressing his opinion that the President has way, way stepped over the line and that’s where he stands.”

That boat left port years ago and it was called 'Fast & Furious'. Before that it was a stolen birth cert, stolen social security number and forged selective service card. Solyndra, IRS targeting, DOJ's bogus warrant on James Rosen, Benghazi, overturning Fed Immigration Laws, illegal 0bamacare waivers/exemptions, bombing Libya without consent of Congress, illegal NLRB appointments, funding the MB (terrorist group) in Egypt, funding Syria terrorist rebels, to name only a few..

When most of an American Presidential administration is communist or Marxists and none are prosecuted or in prison, it's game over. Now, we are desensitized to it.

Yep. One and the same. This guy is a progressive who belongs in the democrat party. Don’t be fooled.

Did impeachment rid us of Clinton? What makes anyone think a man who considers himself ABOVE the law-indeed is trying to destroy the laws that bind him( the Constitution) will OBEY said laws re. impeachment? He’s DARING us to try it- he has no intention of EVER leaving the White House..EVER!

WAY PAST TIME. With sissy Boner at the helm no chance whatsoever of this ever happening. I hope his cave on Debt Ceiling and Slowdown will cause him to not only lose his Weepership but also his seat in 2014. I also pray we are on the cusp of relegating the Gelding Old Party to third party status next year.
