GOP Wacko Compares President Obama to Saddam Hussein

On Tuesday’s “On the Record” on the Fox News Channel, Texas Republican Rep. Steve Stockman, who recently suggested President Barack Obama should be impeached if he uses executive orders to infringe on gun rights, compared the president to former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

President Obama will announce his plan to address gun violence on Wednesday, flanked by children from around the country.
“He is even using children,” Stockman said. “It reminds me of Saddam Hussein when you use kids.”
Republicans are tired of being pushed around by the White House, Stockman added, noting that legislators have considered a variety of ways to resist executive overreach.
“We want all tools available to use, including that impeachment,” Stockman said. “But I think that the limelight focused on that, but we talked [about] lawsuits [and] stopping the funding. And the reason we’re doing this is because we have a president who stepped over the line. … Most executive orders are really meant for the executive branch. He’s using it really for legislative and skipping the Congress. That’s a violation of the Constitution. “ “A lot of people are frustrated with the Republicans [for] not fighting back, and I for one was, too. I was on the sidelines, and got involved with Congress, and I said enough is enough, and we need to stand up and fight. And I said these kind of tools are available to us, and we’re going to use every tool possible to fight an administration which wants to abrogate the Constitution.”
Host Greta Van Susteren asked Stockman what he would do if President Obama announced on Wednesday that he wants to unilaterally ban assault weapons.
“I think we outlined multiple avenues,” Stockman replied. “It’s defending the Constitution in any ways we can legally, and that process has many different avenues. We’re willing to take those to defend the Constitution. I think it the right thing to do.”

For some reason, when “W” did the same thing and said things like “The law means what I say it means” and “This would be easier in a dictatorship, provided I was the dictator,” that was fine. Anything that Obama says or does is automatically wrong. The GOP must mean General Obstructionist Party.
They have no rational complaints so they must resort to insults such as comparing BHO to Ssdam and Hitler.
What happened to all of those Rethugnican states and people that said they were going to secede or leave the country? They probably think of it as a protest. I think of it as housecleaning.

The sorry Republicans are wrong. The trail Dear Leader ObummO is blazing looks very similar to the path commie dictator Lenin took. Marxist-ObummOism = Marxist-Leninism

Exactly how does it look like Lenin? Using guaranteed stress words for insults doesn’t make your theory look any better. When you make assertions with no evidence, it only looks as though you have none to offer.
We’ll all be waiting for your proof.

It wasn’t stated as theory, but as fact. ObummO has a history starting with his mother and going forward to the present as someone who was and is totally absorbed in marxism. There are some elements of Hitler & Sadam present in ObummO’s style but Marxist-Leninism most defines him. All 4 are just slightly different flavors of Fascism.

HT to Sam Sewell
Saul Alinsky was a Communist/Marxist fellow-traveler who wrote “Rules for Radicals” and dedicated it to Satan. ObummO said of Alinsky’s work that it was the “Best Education I ever had”. Your Dear Leader appointed Hillary to Sec of State, another fellow student of Alinsky. Now she is being replaced by John Kerry who commited acts of treason, while still in uniform, by siding with America’s communist enemy during the Vietnam War period. ~Birds of a feather~

Re: “What happened to all of those Rethugnican states and people that said they were going to secede or leave the country?”
Got a chuckle out of that one. DemoRATs & their fellow progressive/liberal useful idiots were going to leave if Bush was reelected in 2004. We offered through a website to pay their ‘one-way airfare ticket’ to the country of their choice.They went silent and stayed.
Something to ponder: Do you think ObummO is happy to be leader of the 4-S Party (Slavery, Secession, Segregation, and Socialism)?
Have a good day,

I asked for proof and you present more delusional right-wing rambling. You make responsible conservatives look bad. Are you a poe working to bring them down from the inside?

I think Rambonehead is on to our plan to help Obama take away our guns and women and replace them with copies of Communist Manifesto and robot replicas of Madeline Murry Ohare.
We better come up with something else quick MadMike! This guys too smart.

LOL. The point is “rambo ike” is not so smart as I have to be concerned about the truth, dignity, or honor of anyone who writes or visits here.
P.S. For you marines: he’s dumb as a rock.

Yep, Rambo Ike is really running roughshod over something Joe. Not sure what. Maybe his own feet? I mean even I, who voted against “ObummO” twice am scratching my balding head over Rambo Ike’s “insights.”

I am always amazed by those who say that Obama either doesn’t know or doesn’t practice what it says in the Constitution. Where did Obama received his JD? Magna cum laude? Oh yeah , Harvard Law school; they probably taught nothing about the Constitution! What did Obama teach at The University of Chicago law school? Just constitutional law! But The University of Chicago, just a backwoods school in the Midwest. I’m sure it’s nothing special! NOT
