A Republican congressman known as a pit bull in Washington said Thursday that he doesn’t support the idea of impeachment proceedings against President Obama because winning that fight would elevate the vice president to the Oval Office.
‘Have you met Joe Biden?’ South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy asked during a Fox News Channel interview.

2015 line up is setting the schedule — !!
The media really gives Biden a ‘pass’, but was all over Dan Quayle for no reason…….other than he was a Republican.
Its bias
If I recall, Quayle made one or two verbal gaffes that he was hammered for by the media. Biden’s gaffes are off the scale. Youtube it if you don’t believe me. The media passes it off as, “Oh, that Joe.” Not only is he gaffe prone, but according to Robert Gates, Biden turned out to be wrong on just about every thing he put forward in Cabinet discussions.
