Republicans back away from the call to impeach President Obama: The GOP understands that message only helps Democrats.

Republicans back away from the call to impeach President Obama: The GOP understands that message only helps Democrats.:

Last week, House Republicans huddled in a Capitol conference room to figure out what kind of emergency immigration bill they might be able to pass. In his telling, Florida Rep. Ted Yoho wanted the party to jam the White House, to pack the bill with new border security measures and threaten to impeach Obama if he ignored them.

“He either enforces the laws on the books—as he was hired and elected to do—or he leaves Congress no option,”crowed Yoho to Breitbart.com. “This is not our choice, this is the president’s choice and I would advise him to uphold the law on the books.”
That wasn’t out of character for Yoho; for most of the past 12 months, he’d been calling on his party to impeach Attorney General Eric Holder. In 2011, beforehe was even elected to Congress, he delineated six reasons to impeach the president, from “the unconstitutional Nationalization of GM and Chrysler” to taking “commands from the U.N. or NATO.”'via Blog this'
