Obama's Brer Rabbit-Saul Alinsky strategy of ridiculing those who speak of impeachment may be backfiring because some Republicans are refusing to take the bait and warn that a unilateral move by Obama to effectively "legalize" millions of illegals will lead to impeachment.




(Washington Examiner) A House Republican on Sunday said the lower chamber would have to consider impeaching President Obama if he proceeds with plans to expand the deferral of deportations for millions of illegal immigrants.

"If the president has decided that he’s not going to enforce any immigration law ... I think Congress has to sit down and have a serious look at the rest of this Constitution and that includes that I-word that we don’t want to say,” Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, said on “Fox News Sunday."

"Where would we draw the line otherwise?” he added. “If that’s not enough to bring [impeachment] then I don’t know what would be. We've never seen anything in this country like a president that says 'I'm going to make up all immigration law that I choose, and I'm going to drive this thing regardless of the resistance of Congress.'"
