‘Open Rebellion’: Chaos if Republicans Don’t Withhold Funding for Obama Executive Amnesty
Breitbart.com/Big-Government ^ | 11-19-2014 | Matthew Boyle

Conservatives say that Republican leaders, including House Speaker John Boehner and incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, will be “complicit” in President Barack Obama’s planned executive amnesty if they don’t pull out all the stops to block him.

They warn that chaos is around the corner if that’s how it goes down, even though they’d much rather have Republican leaders fight the president alongside them.

“Fight or be complicit in lawlessness,” Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton told Breitbart News, is the message to congressional GOP leaders on Obama’s amnesty.

If Republicans move forward with the plan from House Appropriations Committee chairman Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY) to fund the entire government—including Obama’s executive amnesty, which the president is set to announce on Thursday night—in an omnibus spending bill, a Senate GOP aide told Breitbart News conservatives will spread chaos across Washington.

“If Obama announces executive amnesty and the House passes an omnibus with no language blocking it, there will be no Senate vote, because conservatives will burn down the Capitol,” the aide said. When asked to clarify if he was serious they’d burn the building to the ground—or if he was speaking metaphorically—the aide said “open rebellion.”

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX), one of many Republicans conference-wide who will be helping lead the charge to force Boehner to stop Obama, told Breitbart News that Republicans must stand and fight—and that they can and must win.

“Even though around three-quarters of voters this year opposed the idea of executive amnesty, President Obama is apparently going to announce his new royal amnesty decree before going to Las Vegas to promote it,” Gohmert said,

A line has to be drawn somewhere. If this stands, a president can use(or NOT use) his Executive Branch, and all of the agencies under its umbrella to basically do anything they choose regarding their ideology/agenda. An effective Dictatorship.

If this stands, a president can virtually nullify any and all tax laws, any laws at the federal level, there’s literally no limit. All by refusing to prosecute or enforce. Do the Democrats REALLY want this? REALLY?

I think they have something on Boehner

Then he needs to step down, take his medicine, go into hiding, escape to an island somewhere....anything to get out of the way. This is bigger than one self-important politician.

you are too funny, is that why republicans swear they are conservative and support conservative views until the day after we elect them,then they vote for socialism. Until of course the next election, and we believe them and re-elect them...

“Re: Open Letter to GOP Congress”

I agree with others that yours is an excellent informative letter that says exactly how most feel. I would also like to use it to send to my elected officials. While I’ve sent many letters of my own composition, and signed many that Numbers USA have composed, none were as well done as yours.

anyone can prove they are a "newly-discovered American."

But, Liz - it's an "act of love", according to the probable 2016 GOP nominee...

Please feel free to send it and make it available for anyone else to do likewise.

They either impeach or else I am done with the GOP completely. Not a single vote, State, local or federal for a GOP candidate. None.

Nixon got sent packing for far less than 1/10th of what this idiot has done.

“Is it because someone, somewhere, has pictures of them in bed with transsexuals?”

I suspect the voters largely are vastly more concerned about an elected official fu*king America and raping the Constitution than his/her other sexual behavior.

Well yes, that's telling us what is happening, but it doesn't tell us why. THAT is the question we need to answer if we want to do something about this.

This is the reason why.

How about a live boy dressed as a dead girl?
