House Republican scoffs at Bill O'Reilly's suggestion of impeachment: 'Have you met Joe Biden?'
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) appeared on Bill O'Reilly's show on Thursday, and he had an answer ready when O'Reilly mentioned the possibility that President Barack Obama could face impeachment for any executive action he takes on immigration reform.
"Have you met Joe Biden? That is my response to that," Gowdy says. "Nobody is discussing impeachment except pundits and commentators."
It seems that despite Republicans' strong dissatisfaction with Obama, the consensus is that dealing with this guy would be worse. Skip to about two minutes in for the impeachment discussion in the video, below. --Sarah Eberspacher
