Allen West: Censure Obama For Pro-Jihadist Treason

by JASmius

Eh, it would make a statement, I suppose.  Given that Senate Republicans are at least thirteen votes short of the two-thirds vote needed to actually (legally) remove an impeached Barack Obama from office (he would just defy it, of course, since he's got all the REAL power), censure and impeachment are essentially the same thing, so the GOP might as well.  The only question I would have is if a congressional censure would poke at O's colossal ego - by far his biggest vulnerability - or if he would laugh at them, or consider it a badge of honor to be condemned by those "Islamophobes".  Given how far up the Muslim' Brotherhood's ass he is already, I've got to think it'd be the latter, in which case a censure motion really wouldn't accomplish anything, other than putting majority Republicans on record as being anti-jihadist.  Where, presumably, a majority of the American people reside, to varying degrees well short of actually resuming the fight against them.

However, given the GOP's "eager[ness] to end an era of political gridlock," I wouldn't be counting on Boehner and McConnell going to DEFCON-2 anytime soon, folks.  They probably feel that inviting Benjamin Netanyahu to address Congress next month has checked off that box, anyway.
