I'd feel better about that statement if Boehner and McConnell weren't in the leadership roles.
They will do nothing.
That makes SCOTUS the American Parent, and Obama and the Congress the American Sibling Rivalry. All it does is switch the role of King from Obama to SCOTUS.
Oooh, uh, that sounds like a lotta work. Boehner and McConnell prefer banquets and golf and making empty meaningless threats thru their spokespeople. Yeah, not gonna happen...
Should... Won’t.
Mostly agree with you. The people will take care of this just as they did during the elections. If not careful, the republicans will give the wrong perception. “Skillfully skin him with a scalpel”.
Start by defunding all fuel for air force one, the beast and presidential motorcades. When he and mooch start crying, tell them to play ball with congress and they will get some of their perks turned back on.
In one way I do agree with them. How?
By him and his crony Dems doing all of this the Pubbies can’t be blamed for his actions. It shows everyone what the Dems stand for and what they want.
It’s like playing tug of war but your team suddenly lets go of the rope and the other team falls on their rear ends.
If the Pubbies continue to let go of the rope maybe they are hoping that the public will grow even more p.o.ed at the Dems with the result being a third straight loss for Dems in the next election.
What say you?
They will complain but Boehner is just going to start crying again.
The president may have decided he supersedes the Constitution, but the courts may not agree. There are myriad left wing jurists in this country. In fact its getting harder and harder to find those who are not smitten with the Marxist ideology. The court of choice must be made carefully.
So what can the communists courts do? Nothing.
The GOP House and Senate should:
1. Rescind the War Powers Act to curtail Obama’s insane deployment of troops.
2. Recall all US Forces from ME and Africa.
3. Declare war on Mexico, the list of casus belli is both long and long standing.
4. Shut down Immigration Central and South American sections for duration.
5. Declare all illegal aliens persona non grata.
Provides for immediate corraling and repatriation of all undocumented aliens and members of Mecha, LaRaza, and gang members as seditous foreigners.
Require all visa holders to register with local PD. All with expired visas must leave US within 14 days or be subject to imprisonment.
All “anchor babies” whose parents or guardians are illegal aliens to be take into temporary custody at regional FEMA camps prior to repatriation to their families abroad..
And then I woke up.
The first thing they should do is censure him and then resist and fight in any way they can. (wishful thinking of course).
And drag every FReepin’ Democrat congressman and senator into the fight. Put their behinds on the front line.
You vote with us or we defund everything in your district for the next 2 years.
Whatever happened to I will faithfully execute the laws of United States of America? When did that become I will execute the laws that I agree with and ignore the ones I don’t? That needs to be show to be illegal.
I actually think the repubs should do nothing re the executive action...
Instead... pass a bill dealing only with closing and protecting the border...nothing else.
Let the pres veto it first...then sit back and watch what hits the fan.
Here’s what the Republicans should do:
A) CONGRESSIONAL REPUBLICANS:
1) Sue Obama in court, YESTERDAY! He not only created new law, but that new law is in direct contradiction to actual, Constitutionally-created law...namely, he authorized the issuance of work permits to those not legally-permitted to work here. The only people legally-permitted to work are citizens, permanent residents and certain visa holders. Someone here illegally CANNOT work here legally, and so his order clearly creates new law.
2) Pass a funding bill now that expires in the early part of the year. Once the Republicans are completely in charge of the Congress, pass a budget that specifically prohibits funds for the issuance of SSNs, work permits, etc. for anyone not otherwise entitled to one prior to Obama’s EO.
3) The national GOP, the Congressional, House and Senate campaign committees should air, nationwide and on a regular basis, TV, radio and internet commercials of 30 seconds to 1 minutes, involving testimony from real people about how:
a) They immigrated legally at a cost of $X, had to wait X years, etc., and that it is not fair that all of these other folks get to break the law.
b) They are STILL waiting for a legal visa in Shitholia, because they are doing things the right way, and don’t understand how the great USA can allow criminals and line-cutters to do this.
c) Their jobs were taken away by an illegal, or their wages suppressed because of large numbers of illegals.
d) They were victimized by illegals - via theft, drunk driving, their kids were roughed-up in school, etc.
e) They witnessed illegals voting.
f) Whatever other things that they can think of.
B) STATE-LEVEL Republicans:
1) Pass strict voter-ID laws.
2) Require their respective Secretaries of State or Registrars of Elections (or whatever) to comb through the voter rolls EACH YEAR, prior to primaries AND prior to the General Election, to weed out those not entitled to vote in that particular jurisdiction.
3) Pass new, harsher penalties for anyone who votes when not entitled to do so - AND ENFORCE IT. This probably means providing funds for at least a few dozen prisoners in each state. Not only prison, but PERMANENT revocation of the franchise for committing voter fraud, with communication to all other states of said conviction.
Obama wants new voters...well, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Let him take all the heat for the unconstitutional EO, while not reaping the benefits (nor allowing the rest of the Dems to do so, either).a
The Republicans are the only political body left to reverse course and if their leadership does not understand the absolute necessity for them to get, and keep, close contact with their grassroots base they will not survive as a viable party. I am hoping we got enough good Americans elected this year to turn the tide back to a patriotic America.
