Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) said Tuesday that President Obama seeks to uphold the “Soviet constitution” and that he has “no concept” of the United States Constitution. 

“I think my role is to uphold, support and defend our Constitution,” Broun told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.  

He continued: “I don’t know what Constitution that other members of Congress uphold, but it’s not this one. I think the only constitution that Barack Obama upholds is the Soviet constitution, not this one. He has no concept of this one, though he claimed to be a constitutional lawyer.”
