On his Thursday radio show, conservative talker Mark Levin proposed Republicans boycott President Barack Obama’s upcoming State of the Union address:
“Here’s what should happen at the State of the Union speech. Since these men and women will not use the Constitution to defend this nation, since they will not use the Constitution to confront a lawless president — worse yet, since their funding his activities with these omnibus bills filled with all kinds of crap,” Levin said. “What the Republican should do is boycott the State of the Union. They should boycott the State of the Union so half of the House floor, because that’s where they meet, is empty. And they should get together and present their own case on the State of the Union and explain in an articulate and concise way what the State of the Union is and how the president threatens this republic. They need to do something bold that will get the attention of some of our fellow citizens and which the media, which will attack it, but cannot ignore it.”
“If they’re not going to take a stand constitutionally and legally, they should at least take a stand on the steps of the Capitol or somewhere,” he continued. “Together, shoulder to shoulder, and say we have a lawless president doing lawless things and make their case to the American people. It would be historic, it would be profound.”
