And what will they do to stop him? Impeachment is “off the table.” Shutting down government is “off the table.” Stupid turds.

They ought to announce impeachment proceedings about an hour after the GJ reports out in Ferguson reports out.

Exactly. But hey, we HAD to have that R majority, right? Not that they'll do anything with it, cuz impeachment is off the table, and shutting the gubmint down is off the table. Would be just the same as D's having the majority. Spineless GOPe. Go Team America!

Oh, there’s nothing to fear. Bob Goodlatte was just on the radio. He said there are a number of things Republicans can do, including censure, a lawsuit, and defunding. He hastened to assure listeners that doesn’t mean they WILL do anything specific.

Right, someone slaps me they got knocked on their a@@. That is what this POS needs, figuratively. Defund the entire office of president. Pay his salary and that is it.

I had no optimism when we won. We won nothing. The Chamber of Commerce won. We lost.

Suddenly the word “temporary” gets attached to his plan. Some defensive lawyering going on there, methinks. But he’s severely diluting the impact on his “Hispanic base”. Ponder the difference between “we’ll let your dad stay in the country” and “we’ll let your dad stay in the country for a while if you vote for us”. Simple extortion. The Chicago Way.

Looks like Mitch McConnell’s plan to commission Marco Rubio as amnesty spokesman has blown up in his face. Let us not forget that McConnell/ Rubio got this whole fiasco started shortly after the 2012 election. Mitch blew it, yet the brainless Senators in the GOP still elected him Majority Leader. Amnesty is coming, the GOP has made Congress as impotent as ever, and I don’t see how the GOP can possibly win over any Latino voters now. I think the end of the GOP is nearer than ever.

Obama is the class bully slapping the class wimps around just to make sure they get the message that nothing has changed and he is atill the Big Dog.

Republicans have let him terrorize the country and wipe his butt with the Constitution for five years so why would he stop now?
