Source: Senate GOP Refuses to Strategize Against Obama

Senate Republicans had no appetite for discussing how to thwart President Obama’s executive orders on immigration during the conference’s weekly lunch, according to a source familiar with the meeting.

Senator Mike Lee (R., Utah) and Senator David Vitter (R., La.) tried to broach the topic, but were ignored.

“At different times, Lee and Vitter stood up and tried to begin a discussion about what the plan was and asked leadership about what their strategy was to deal with the spending bill and respond to Obama executive amnesty, and the reply was always an effort to try to change the subject to the ozone rule from the EPA or some other issue, and it was just bizarre,” the source said.

No, these things take an Asteroid. At a precise lat/long.

I won’t lecture you like some here who like to blame everyone but the GOP for losing twice to Obama.
The GOP won’t fight Obama then they deserve to lose to Dems.

[iontheball]

The Republicans are lying, deceiving traitors and, in many ways, much worse than Democrats. It has been like this since Newt was speaker, but there is something many degrees different and outlandish since Obummer came on the scene. Look at Obummer’s miserable record and low popularity and still there is zero opposition from Republicans. Everyone is left scratching their heads in bewilderment. I continue to believe there must be some form of coercion going on in the backfield that these cowards are unwilling to face and confront. The bewildering craziness began when Obummer’s qualifications were never questioned and it has only become more outlandish as time has gone by. In that sense, Republicans stumbling over Democrats to try and endear themselves with illegal aliens by jumping on the amnesty train can not be viewed as a surprise.

The Republican leadership, Boner and McSurrender particularly, have perfected the art of pre-emptive surrender.

Purge the Republican leadership of the RINO’s and then the USSA will have a Party that represents the American People...though with endless waves of Dem Amnesties, the American People will become like us in California....Hola Amigos! Si, yo gusto Obama! Gringos, para ustedes, su comer esta caca! Ha ha ha! Viva la “free caca”!

[pleasenotcalifornia]

Sincerely hope so.

[OldArmy52]

Thanks to the Hispanic immigration hordes (some even legal) here in California, the Republican Party is near extinct and powerless. “Whites” are now the minority (hold your breath Whites for your Affirmative Action).

Boner and McSurrender should come and live here and see just how a large minority population does NOT vote Republican. All the minorities here vote very heavy Dem...for the free sh*t.

[Maudeen]

These self-serving people have no backbone. I guess they don’t care about the future for their children and grandchildren.

“I think I’m done with politics, after today.”

“Let’s see... bird-watching? Feeding feral cats in parking lots?”

I recommend prepping.

[ryan71]

I’m trying hard to be patient and see what happens but it’s not looking good. If the Republicans screw the conservative base they better hold on for a rough as hell ride. They’ll lose their House and Senate majorities in no time. The presidency? Laughable. I hear a lot of people talking about abandoning the political system entirely and getting ready for the inevitable leftist tyranny.

[Ray76]

You’re with us or against us. The GOP has made their choice.

[txhurl]

I almost think a hard leftist tyranny will be easier to defeat than the gope-STAB. We can run straight at them with no second guessing.

[1010RD]

Shouldn’t leadership be in quotes?

[nomad]

The lesser of two evils, strikes again!

So much for the enabler`s song, 'If we support them, they`ll have to change their tunes, you see!'

[itsahoot]

Maybe we need about 6 patriot Senators to become independent, or even threaten to become independent or maybe even join the Dems, something has to happen to shake the pillars of power in DC.

[itsahoot]

That and FBI raw files have bought Roberts on the USSC

Any Government that is subject to be blackmailed into betraying their Country is a traitor without honor, the only way to regain any semblance of honor is to resign and confess.

[itsahoot]

The executive order Obama signed requires illegals to "register"

Are we really going back to the Super Secret Super Genius Plans of the GW days?

[SoConPubbie]

Does this really surprise anyone?

[txhurl]

No; I just don’t think everybody thought TODAY would be the day we exited Claire Wolf’s conundrum.

I don’t think we were expecting the Chamber of Commerce to swing the bat this early after the election. But they sure did.

[uncitizen]

The GOPE doesn’t give a carp what we conservatives want.

Somebody had the idea last week to change our party affiliation to independent. I think we should start a campaign to do this either on one specific day or a few days in a row. To send the message loud and clear that we are officially DONE with the GOPE. THe media may ignore it but if something goes viral on the Internet they usually have to acknowledge it.

[Aleya2Fairlie]

These people that we elected work for us(not the other way round) and it’s up to us to support the ones who are ready to take a stand and to let the cowards among them know that we will not stand for it! This is the last best hope we have besides taking up arms and entering into another civil war. I’m ready for that if there’s no other way. But I intend to let the cowards who still insist on playing footsie with the Dems know that they don’t have my confidence. If I do that, it won’t help a thing. But me times a million or so just might.

Maybe I’m holding on to false hope and America is already done. If the so-called moderates have their way, there will be no doubt about it.
