People say, should the president be impeached? I say, were getting close to that.Andrew Kaczynski
BuzzFeed News Reporter
Republican Rep. Tom Marino of Pennsylvania says President Obama is getting close to impeachment.
People say, should the president be impeached? I say, were getting close to that, the Marino said in a video posted on YouTube Wednesday by the local newspaper, the Wellsboro Gazette.
Marino said he was talking about impeachment because it comes up consistently at town hall meetings.
Of Attorney General Eric Holder, Marino said he also was approaching impeachment.
I think when an attorney general says, I am not enforcing the law that I took the oath to enforce, thats approaching impeachment.

Yet he does not name a single Constitutional violation by POTUS that warrants impeachment

Wouldn't you then impeach the Attorney General for the Attorney General's words or actions? Just curious.

I believe aside from redisdricting the people voted for some new blood in cingress to get the country moving forward. This would be a stupid, stupid move and I doubt the GOP has the ovaries to try to impeach him. This is a stunt to get rightwing loons to send money.

From the article linked:
"Marino has said previously that he wanted to impeach the Democratic Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid."
Had he actually read the constitution he would know that statement was purely ignorant. No member of Congress can be impeached. A house of Congress is empowered to expel a member upon a 2/3 vote, but no Congressman or Senator can be impeached or recalled.
