KELLER, Texas, Aug. 9 (UPI) -- U.S. Rep. Michael Burgess, R-Texas, told a Tea Party audience impeaching President Obama "needs to happen" to "tie things up" in Washington.
Burgess' comments came as he justified his vote for the debt ceiling deal to a group of Tea Party activists in Keller, Texas, Monday. The five-term congressman said he didn't want to find out what would happen if the U.S. government signaled it might not pay its bills, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Tuesday.
