Steve King Of Wishful Thinking

Once again we have another example of a sitting member of Congress advocating direct attacks on the White House.  And once again, the man advocating that position is GOP Rep. Steve King.
Rep. Steve King (R-IA) declared at an event hosted by Americans For Tax Reform that members of the Obama administration would fail the United States citizenship test, due to their lack of belief in a capitalist economy.

"Even though there would be some people in the White House that would fail this test, if you look at the naturalization flash cards, if you want to become a naturalized American citizen...[the flashcard] will ask, 'What is the economic system of the United States?' Flip that flash card around, it says free enterprise, capitalist," said King, CNSNews reports.

"I am not convinced that people in the White House understand it, let alone believe it, given some of the activities that we have seen," King said.
Look, at what point does somebody just tell Steve King to resign if he doesn't want to be part of the "socialist government" that has apparently taken over every aspect of our lives (at least inside his head they have.)  This kind of irresponsible idiocy from a Congressman is inexcusable.

I'd like to see Steve King and his staff take the current naturalization test.  I'd like to see how'd they fare.  Considering King's demonstrated lack of knowledge of United States law and history, I'm thinking he might very well be the first person to fail the test.

Show me the part in the Constitution where the duties of the Congress include "Going to Tea Party rallies to attack the President as un-American."  This guy is an embarrassment and a joke.

Umm, maybe I missed it. I don't see where he advocated an attack on anyone.

It's in the Teabagger's Guide to the Constitution (Abridged) next to "Thou Shalt Not Have a N****r in the WHITE House".
