White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer conceded that he fears a President Ted Cruz will overturn President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty, perhaps signaling that Cruz represents the greatest threat to the progressive left.

“Our first 100 days we spent a lot of time signing executive orders undoing what [President George W.] Bush did, and I would like not to be sitting on a beach somewhere reading about President [Ted] Cruz doing that to us, so it’s very important to us,” Pfeiffer told the Wall Street Journal on Friday.

Earlier in the day, Pfeiffer declared that Obama’s executive amnesty was one of the reasons that made 2014 a “year of great progress” for the “progressive agenda.” He told the Journal that from the “perspective of advancing our agenda through our pen and our phone, this has been a tremendously successful year.”

Cruz, a potential 2016 heavyweight, would run as a bold conservative...

When they're referring to you as "president" you're halfway there.

[corkoman]

Yep! Works for me. Tally-ho

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Damn right he will.

He should run on that!

He should make that the main plank of his platform!

Obola is a GENIUS!

[wastedyears]

I’d love to do some administrative work for him.

[reasonisfaith]

Nice post.

You Got That Right! President Cruz will do what is BEST for his country, unlike certain other presidents who delights in doing the exact opposite thing his country asks for.

Someone should list these E/O’s over tbe last 6 years.

Fair enough. Read about it in Rikers Island instead.

[DoughtyOne]

Yeah, he’s real afraid of what Cruz will do in February of 2017. LMAO

Amazing what passes for assessment these days.

White House Fears President Cruz Will Overturn Exec Amnesty

[slumber1]

This indicates they are worried about Cruz but Jeb or Mitt - not so much

[KarlInOhio]

I hope President Cruz doesn't spend all of his time on revoking Obama's executive orders. He needs to save time for executive memoranda and executive winks and nudges too.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

He’s done more executive memos. Combined he’s done more than any president since Harry Truman.

"I would like not to be sitting on a beach somewhere reading about President [Ted] Cruz doing that to us"

I assume he's referring to his planned beach front villa in Cuba.

[P-Marlowe]

Yeah Baby!!!

Is a com-symp degenerate enemy within.

The RIGHT via Cruz is going to make it's last stand in 2016.

The USA will be "fundamentally transformed" back to 1787.

Of course, this could simply be a way this administration tries to set one republican in direct opposition to another.
If they drop a name like Cruz, as though they considered him a threat, how do you think Rand Paul or Marco Rubio are going to feel about that? The Dems may be naming Cruz now, hoping that other republicans, now envious will do the Dems dirty work by trying to ruin his public image.

[proud American in Canada]

Seriously? Wow!!!
