This is what ignorance sounds like:
WASHINGTON Bob Barr was endorsed by noted conspiracy theorist Alex Jones in an interview last week in which Barr pledges to try to impeach President Barack Obama if he returns to Congress.
Barr is competing in a heated GOP primary to replace Rep. Phil Gingrey. The Republican-turned-Libertarian-turned-Republican again is best known for being the engine behind President Bill Clintons impeachment in the 1990s.
Jones Infowars is a popular Internet radio show and website that fights things like fluoride in drinking water and claims the 9/11 attacks were an inside job. In the below excerpt, Jones alleges that Clinton murdered his enemies and Barr talks about impeaching Obama:
Jones: A lot of people died that went up against Clinton. A lot of airplanes blew up. A lot of people got shot in the head five times. And it does take backbone to try to impeach somebody when youre going up against gangsters like this. And weve got to get rid of the Clinton mafia. And I think what youre hinting at is if we put you back into Congress, you are going to start investigating bringing charges of impeachment up in the House?
Barr: Alex, I was with some folks just recently and pulled out of a file in my office the House resolution, the House resolution that I introduced on November fifth of 1997 that was the very first official inquiry of impeachment filed against Bill Clinton and that was mine. And at the time I think I had 18 co-sponsors was all, in November of 1997. And what I did is I took that document, figuratively kind of dusted it off, added a little bit of language to it and darned if it doesnt sound pretty good with Barack Obamas name in there.
