Oklahoma’s state legislature isn’t messing around. They are so furious about President Barack Obama’s dangerous actions about transgenders in public school bathrooms, that they are officially calling for OK’s members of Congress to start impeachment proceedings. Obama’s actions have been unconstitutional, and boys and girls should be using the restroom according to the gender they were born with. It’s about time for impeachment!
Oklahoma’s Republican-dominated legislature has filed a measure calling for President Barack Obama’s impeachment over his administration’s recommendations on accommodating transgender students, saying he overstepped his constitutional authority. Lawmakers in the socially conservative state are also expected to take up a measure as early as Friday that would allow students to claim a religious right to have separate but equal bathrooms and changing facilities to segregate them from transgender students.
The bill introduced on Thursday night could force schools into costly construction, which would be difficult for them to complete after lawmakers significantly cut education funding to plug a $1.3 billion state budget shortfall.

Does Kabuki theatre ever end?
yeah, just a little.....
I think my beliefs are much closer to the original concept the founding fathers had than what is going on today.
Thanks for the validation. I do believe we are both correct, and if we had enough Governors with balls, maybe no more than ten, the system could be made to work without the insanity that emanates from Washington every time it appears a State might be attempting to exercise it’s rights in accordance with the tenth amendment to the United States Constitution.
I have a personal research project to determine what year my State became what I call a welfare state, which would be having a budget independent of receipt of Federal Funds. I am back to 1980 and it is apparently much earlier still.
“Clear it up?”
Yeah more idiot politicians making fools of themselves by passing meaningless resolutions. On the other hand I suppose it’s better than them doing anything meaningful then we would really be in trouble......
Too little, too late, but it says something that a State's Legislature would tell its folks in D.C. to begin impeachment proceedings. With Hillary out there campaigning as "I'm Obama plus more oppression and lawlessness because I'm emboldened by how little resistance he ran into", this may help shed some light on the giant cockroaches of both their lives.
Probably a waste, but it has some useful potential despite being unlikely to actually start impeachment.
