Clyburn to GOP: ‘Be Very, Very Careful About How You Treat this President’
breitbart ^ | 5/26/15 | p key

Posted on 05/26/2015 4:31:56 PM PDT by bestintxas

Last week, Rep. Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) 6% sat down with Voice of America host Carol Castiel and network congressional correspondent Cindy Saine and offered a warning to President Barack Obama’s Republican opposition while discussing the nuclear deal the president is pushing for with Iran.

When asked about the Iran deal Clyburn said, “Well yes, I think so. It’s one thing to review it. It’s something else to veto. I don’t think that Congress ought to have any right to circumvent the president. And this foolishness that has been going on up here, it’s just foolishness. And we have to be very, very careful and for people to not see … Look, I am old enough to have seen and paid close attention to many presidents, all the way back to Truman. I first, got interested in politics when Truman ran against Dewey back in 1948. And I have following closely every president ever since. And so I will say to my friends, ‘Be very, very careful about how you treat this President, because turnabout is fair play. And I think that this president has not been treated with dignity and respect that he should be treated with. Especially when it comes to his dealing with foreign countries. And that, to me, is a big problem here. So I support this country speaking with one voice when we get beyond the water’s edge. That is not taking place now. So these shenanigans that took place here, the letter that they wrote, the invitation to Netanyahu to address them, to me went beyond the pale.”

I say we treat him the way his actions expect him to be treated.

In my mind, he should be arrested for treason, tried, then executed if found guilty, as the Constitution describes.

So he’s saying that Mr. Obama is our king? I have no king save Christ Jesus, congressman. Pound sand.

Because you know how the Democrats, including you race hustler, treated Pres. Bush with the utmost respect.
Shut up and find someone else to hassle.

I believe it was a Rep Pres no last resigned for criminal activity. THIS o,ccupier officials the whitehouse thinks he gets a pass ‘cause to do otherwise would be “racist”. And he will walk because of it. Talk about “foolishness” going on. All I see is pots who keep calling the kettle black.

The more these scumbag politicians talk the lower they sink (in my eyes)

Repub, dem, doesn’t matter. Actually the repubs are worse. At least you know where the dems stand. The repubs lie to us until they get in office. Then its full capitulation to the left.

Yeah sure, give him a free pass to do as he pleases. He’s been doing as he pleases all along anyways. What’s the difference to you, Clymer, I mean Clyburn? Why doesen’t your party just vote him in as a god? No balls? You may as well try it, you’ve let him run America like a feral 2-year old!

Sorry Clyburn but I still can’t believe Americans were dumb enough to elect this rookie once, let alone twice. Proves that anyone, yes anyone, can become president.

This is typical of a real communists pric!. Congress should have the right to stop any President from making anything without their approval. That is the check an balance.

Is that a threat by Mignon's daddy?
Scary as an Obama "red line in the sand", I wager.
How's this: Obama is a swaggering arrogant, ignorant jackass who has earned his mockery.
