'We Will Not Engage': Michele Bachmann Reveals GOP Plans to Ignore Executive Amnesty
Breitbart ^ | Nov 22, 2104 | Robert Wilde

Posted on 11/23/2014 1:56:24 PM PST by Ray76

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn) revealed on Saturday that Republican leadership, led by Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Oh), has no intention of resisting President Obama’s executive amnesty that he ordered on Thursday.

“They acted as though the amnesty issue wasn’t even an issue. They said that the President is going to do what he’s going to do, and we are not going to get down in the mud with him. We are not going to engage, and what we are going to do is to talk about our positive solutions on jobs, the economy, education, and manufacturing,” Bachmann said.

Boehner just want’s it to be Pubs who get “credit” for amnesty. Other than that, he approves of Obama’s action.

Yep. It’s so obvious. It’s the exact same dynamic when it comes to Obamacare. If it was Romneycare, there wouldn’t be a problem with it at all.

As long as we keep voting for RINOs, what do we expect?

Who the hell ran against Boehner in the GOP primary in the spring, or was he unopposed? I know conservatives are underfunded in the fight against the GOPe but if all we do is sit and whine and allow these guys to keep winning elections then nothing will ever get done and the status quo will remain.

If you don’t vote for the GOPe you’re a traitor to your country . . . oh, that’s the old message from a couple of weeks ago.

Perhaps this is stupid, but I’m thinking they know that the EO that Obama signed does not exist. So they are making Obama think they are panicking or something. Remember Obola loves to create chaos so let him think that.

We are not going to engage, and what we are going to do is to talk about our positive solutions on jobs, the economy, education, and manufacturing,” Bachmann said.

That's really not going to help things, if President Dingdong can just nullify any law from the 114th Congress that he previously signed in some drug-induced haze.

And many thanks to the newly-elected conservatives who helped put the current leadership back in power for the next two years. #dumb

PING!

Actually, there is still the option of an Article V convention to reign in the government.

Conservatives should have just voted down-ballot in Boner’s district.
