Trey Gowdy said his party can't impeach the president over his threatened immigration overhaul – but only because Biden would become president
The folksy Biden wants the top job for himself but Republicans see him as a potentially embarrassing one-man gaffe factory
One senior House GOP aide said Biden is 'two floppy shoes short of a complete clown outfit' and Obama's 'insurance policy'
Gowdy hinted that impeachment is being dangled by the White House as bait in the hope that the GOP will destroy its own credibility by trying it
A Texas Republican congressman and a judge-turned-news-analyst floated the idea this week
A Republican congressman known as a pit bull in Washington said Thursday that he doesn't support the idea of impeachment proceedings against President Obama because winning that fight would elevate the vice president to the Oval Office.
'Have you met Joe Biden?' South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy asked during a Fox News Channel interview.
Impeachment talk has swirled around Washington since the president announced that an executive order overhauling America's immigration system is imminent.
But some in the GOP see Biden as Obama's hedge against removal from office, since much of his public exposure has come in conjunction with a series of embarrassing gaffes.
A senior aide to a House Republican told MailOnline on Friday that 'Avoiding the "I" word' is a case of 'better the devil you know than the devil you don't.'
'Only in this case, we're pretty sure we know both devils. And Biden – he's two floppy shoes short of a complete clown outfit. Let's be honest: He's Obama's insurance policy.'

No comparison with "Obama", IMO.
Sure. But I’d take Biden in a heartbeat if serious about it. He’s simply a buffoon. you can deal with stupidity. you can’t deal with The Joker watching the world burn for no other reason than boredom. Obama and Romney are evil. And I mention Romney as he was the alternative and no more acceptable than Obama.
You people need to get a grip....impeachment is a fight Obama wants..
It’s like doing slapstick in the kingdom of the blind, granted, but it’s gotta be done/said. If only so that it was said.
“....impeachment is a fight Obama wants.. “
Agreed.
I saw this and thought it was amusing the O’Reilly required an explanation. He didn’t know why Gowdy asked, “Have you met Joe Biden?”
Better Biden than Obama. He could be influenced because he’s actually an American.
God bless you!
Joe is like the fat chick girls take with them to bars to make themselves look better by comparison.
Except Joe was intended to make Obama look smart, because anytime anyone is standing near Biden, they look like a genius!
It's one he thinks he wants. Until he is impeached and removed with Democratic votes from purple states. Rule by decree is not a power we can allow any president, GOP or Democrat, to have.
Just out of curiosity what ever happened to that Benghazi panel that Gowdy was chairing? Maybe he should drop the one-liners and get to the bottom of who was responsible for that fiasco?
I saw this live on O’Reilly... Hysterical. Cong. Gowdy is quick.
I suspect too many on our forum have put too much confidence in Mr. Gowdy. He seemed confused when speaking on the O’Reilly program on Thursday.
Holy Effing Shiite, what a supreme disaster this country is now :((
Republicans are imploding, and the new Congress hasn’t even been sworn in yet.
This is the end of the GOP as a viable national party. Time to look elsewhere.
->>impeachment is a fight Obama wants.. “
Could you prove that ..versus repeating what Rove and others are saying on FOX.
Nixon burgled Democratic offices to spy on them. Clinton perjured himself about his tawdry White House affairs. These abuses were trivial relative to Obama’s attempt to rule by decree.
Biden is an American Citizen and Obama is an Illegal Alien
I have
Come on guy’s...it was Gowdy’s way of not answering a question in a comedic way. I thought it was funny. I don’t think Gowdy is a RINO.
