Rep. Weber (R-TX) Tweets Re. Pres. As "Kommandant-in-Chef", "socialistic dictator" from House floor
With around 50 minutes until President Barack Obama was scheduled to deliver his State of the Union address, freshman Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas) took to Twitter to let everyone know that he was getting impatient, while simultaneously becoming the first GOP congressman on Tuesday to call the president a "socialistic dictator":
On floor of house waitin on "Kommandant-In-Chef"... the Socialistic dictator who's been feeding US a line or is it "A-Lying?"

A spokesperson for Weber's office later confirmed that "it is our tweet."
It was a classic troll move and perhaps a rather obvious cry for attention. As the National Journal reported last year, Weber, the Texan who replaced retiring GOP Rep. Ron Paul in 2012, fancies himself the next "Republican troublemaker, if only someone would pay attention."

Randy Weber (born July 2, 1953) is an American businessman and a politician. He is a member of the United States House of Representatives who fancies himself the next "Republican troublemaker, if only someone would pay attention"; and as such, is a major-league douchebag. He has represented Texas' 14th congressional district since 2013, succeeding Ron Paul. He defeated former Congressman Nick Lampson on November 6, 2012, by a 53% to 45% margin. He was a member of the Texas House of Representatives, representing the 29th district. He is a member of the Republican Party.[2]
this part of his bio sounds like it accurate. Surely one of the top producers of hot air in the state!
