Newt said a judge can be impeached, but before they do, they might like to have him appear before Congress to explain himself, so they could supoena him. IF HE DID NOT SHOW UP, Newt said they could send the capitol police or marshall to force him to honor the supoena.

That's exactly what Newt said and he was correct. The headline intentionally implied something totally different - That Newt wanted to have Judges arrested for making ruling that Newt was not in favor of. Typical media spin to make Newt look Zany.

If you are going to impeach a judge (which congress can do), then you are going to have impeachment hearings. In the process of those hearings, the Judge in question is going to be asked to come testify. If necessary congress might need to subpoena the Judge etc..

There was nothing extraordinary about Newt's statement. The only thing "extraordinary" might be the media's ignorance.

Or if he doesn’t appear they can remove him in absentia. No problem really.

Not to mention the ignorance about this issue on FR. The same people, that, for years have demanded our officials follow the Constitution now cower in fear of its proposed implementation.
