Rep. Steve Stockman: GOP Believes Lois Lerner Is ‘A Word That Rhymes With Witch’

If the GOP isn’t going to move on impeaching President Obama, as John Boehner has announced, Steve Stockman must feel he has a better shot at getting Lois Lerner arrested.

In an interview with Newsmax’s Steve Malzberg yesterday, the Texas Republican said that while he still thinks President Obama has “done impeachable offenses,” he now sees that the president is “trying to use people like myself” to start impeachment proceedings that would reflect poorly on Republicans.

So, Stockman said, he’s focusing his efforts before the summer recess on pushing a House vote to arrest Lerner, a move which he may be able to take without the approval of GOP leadership.

When Malzberg asked him whether he thinks his arrest motion would garner the support of his fellow Republicans, Stockman replied, “Well, they said some things about jail and a word that rhymes with witch sometimes to me.”

Funny, I didn’t think Ms. Lerner was rich.
