Referring to Cruz's time as a student at Harvard Law, Professor Alan Dershowitz said, "Cruz was off-the-charts brilliant."

I don’t think we have a choice.

If Obama does this, it’s time to pull out the stops and tell him “You can forget about any of your nominees advancing out of the Senate between now and when you leave office”.

I’d also like to see the GOp launch a media blitz if Obama does this. I don’t care if they have to demagogue the issue. Just do it. Scare the crap out of the American people - whatever it takes.

Recess Appointments.

It is a constitutional power of the Majority Leader alone

Way to put McConnell on the spot. I love it.

Rep. Gutierrez of Illinois , of Puerto Rican background, a key leader in the the push for amnesty: He can taste it now. He is one happy camper. I'm talking about President Obama's speech tomorrow night, Thursday, where Obama will say that he will legalize 2,000,000 to 5,000,000 illegals.

Gutierrez will see all his dreams and hard work all these years finally come true with Obama's executive order.

Obama calls it executive order. I call it political blackmail.

Of course, Obama will say that the Republicans forced him to do it.

He will also say that it was "the right thing to do" several times, as if God is the one who inspired him to make such a decision.

Gutierrez will now sit back and wait for Obama's next executive order next year in Nov. 2015, when Obama will sign another executive order legalizing another 2,000,000 to 5,000,000 illegals, in which Obama legalizes those he missed this time.

Will Senator McConnell cave to Obama? I think he will.

Don’t just block them. Bring each of them up for an up or down vote and vote to reject each of them, one after the other until you have rejected each of his appointees.

It all sound very quaint now considering that the GOP leadership will want to get-along, go-along with whatever Obama wants.

It’s time for the GOP to pull up their Huggies, man up and show the Kenyan emperor that Americans are in charge of this chicken coop.

Why not just threaten to slash his golf budget, or fuel for Air Force One?
