This is Blake Farenthold

Yep, the guy on the right is Representative Blake Farenthold (Republican, Texas.) You know him, right? He's the guy who just told his constituents that Republicans have the votes in the House to impeach President Barack Obama.
Fielding a question… Farnethold at first lamented that Congress didn't do more to investigate Obama's birth certificate. 
“I think unfortunately the horse is already out of the barn on this, on the whole birth certificate issue.” Farenthold said. “The original Congress when his eligibility came up should have looked into this and they didn’t. I’m not sure how we fix it.” 
“[Regarding impeachment,] if we were to impeach the President tomorrow, you could probably get the votes in the House of Representatives to do it. But it would go to the Senate and he wouldn’t be convicted.”
