House GOP Still Talking Impeachment

From hiring Republican-tied lawyers to sue the President at $500 per hour to threatening to shut down the government, House Republicans have sure had their week.  Now add another GOP obstructionist peril to the pile.   What is it?

From MSNBC:

…Rep. Kenny Marchant (R-Texas) told his constituents that there's a…chance the House will move forward on impeachment – but President Obama's critics will have to wait until after this year's midterm elections.

He said Republicans should wait until after the November elections to "proceed on that question."

…it's amazing how frequently this continues to come up.

Just this week, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) fielded an impeachment question from a group of constituents. Instead of saying the idea was ridiculous, the Virginia Republican said his party had to proceed with "great caution"...

Last week, we learned that Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) hasn't given up on his impeachment plans. A few days prior, the Republican in North Carolina's 6th congressional district also endorsed impeachment…The week before that, one House Republican lawmaker and another House Republican candidate expressed their support for the same idea.

All of this is just from August – which isn't over yet – and came after Republican leaders urged the party to stop talking about the issue publicly.

And now one GOP lawmaker thinks the party can "proceed on that question" following the midterms…

Speaker Boehner, clearly Members of your Conference cannot seem to drop this word.  Just take a look at some of their past harangues:

• "President Obama is begging to be impeached." -Rep. Stockman

• "...if the House had an impeachment vote, it would...impeach the president…" -Rep. Bill Flores

• "...the president has committed impeachable offenses...impeachment is important..." -Rep. Michelle Bachmann

• "[Obama impeachment] needs to happen." -Rep. Michael Burgess

• "...we need to bring impeachment hearings immediately before the House of Representatives," -Rep. Steve King

• "...he leaves Congress no option [but to impeach him]." -Rep. Ted Yoho

• "[Impeachment of Obama] – a dream come true…" -Rep. Kerry Bentivolio

• "Well impeachment is indicting in the House and that's a possibility…" –Rep. Joe Barton

• "Congress is going to start looking at it (impeachment) very seriously." -Rep. Jack Kingston

• "The president deserves to be impeached. Plain and simple." -Rep. Randy Weber

• "[President Obama's handling of Benghazi is an] impeachable offense." -Rep. Jason Chaffetz

• "...I'll give you a real frank answer about that, if we were to impeach the President tomorrow, you could...get the votes...to do it." -Rep. Blake Farenthold

How much longer will it take you to remove this off the table?
