The GOP’s Most Extreme Reactions to Obama’s Commonsense Gun Safety Plan

It’s not just NRA lobbyists that are reacting completely irrationally to the president’s commonsense proposals to prevent gun violence. Matt Drudge likened President Obama to both Hitler and Stalin. But some Republicans are now even going so far as to suggest impeaching the president. Unfortunately, some of them are members of the House and actually have the power to introduce articles of impeachment.

Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX)
Stockman plans to introduce articles of impeachment, calling Obama’s anti-gun violence efforts “an existential threat to this nation.”

Rep. Trey Radel (R-FL)
Following Stockman’s lead is Florida Congressman Trey Radel, who said impeachment “should be on the table” and falsely claimed that Obama wants an executive order to “ban guns.”

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX)
Gohmert, a Tea Party favorite who recently claimed an assault weapons ban would have to include hammers, charged that the president’s action is “illegal” and grounds for impeachment. “The American Revolution was all about fighting such a monarchy — and that is not what the Constitution anticipates. It’s not something a Constitutional president would do,” Gohmert lamented.

Former Attorney General Edwin Meese (R)
Edwin Meese, former Reagan Attorney General and current Heritage Foundation official, is also taking up the call for impeachment. In an interview with Newsmax, Meese claimed Obama may have “really tried to override the Constitution itself.” Congress, he said, would have to take action, “perhaps even to the point of impeachment.”

Larry Pratt
The head of Gun Owners for America urged Republican lawmakers to stop being “spectators while the country is being torn apart” and impeach Obama. Pratt also attacked all gun safety laws as “the most pagan of paganism” because they assume guns and other “inanimate objects as possessing their own will.”

BOTTOM LINE: A majority of Americans — and gun owners — support sensible gun violence prevention measures. Instead of overheated rhetoric, it’s time for Congress to have a real debate about how we can protect our children and our communities from senseless acts of gun violence.

Most of white america could care less about their children or anyone else if it means sensible laws like making background checks on every gun purchase.

This is a sick race. I work with a bunch the OTWs at the firm are about 11 of 93 employees. It is quite apparent that these people are not afraid that the government is going to take away their guns.

That is an excuse to continue their obsession with guns to make them feel manly in lieu of the small dick label they carry as a race.

I can’t tell you how many times their wives or girlfriends make it perfectly clear they would fuck me at company parties. I find it disgusting that they think I would risk my job just to get some white pussy.

The race as a whole male or female think way too much of the color of their skin.

Of course, the other reason this is so powerful is that Obama is black and anything the white boy can do to show disrespect to him they will do.

I said no because I didn’t want him to think I was still reading Michelle’s blog because he threatened to disown me if he heard anything else that woman was concerned with in his house.

To think he admitted he has been not only reading it religiously since I showed it to him, he has been commending on it anonymously.

Well, today he is your biggest supporter because he has been saying for decades that FDR was murdered. He is actually posting your comments on his blog site as proof of his claims over the decades.

So many of our relatives that cowered to him when he put me and Michelle’s blog down are now on the outs. I’m the new best boy in his eyes.

Hello Uncle I know you are reading this.
