White House Fears ‘President Cruz’ Will Overturn Exec Amnesty
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | December 19, 2014 | Tony Lee

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.”

Who, in their right mind, wouldn’t love to live free in the minds of the ‘rat lovers of the Castro’s utopian statist gov’t?

“I assume he’s referring to his planned beach front villa in Cuba.”

That would be an ideal retirement locale for him, with his fellow Marxists! /s ;)

Pfieffer is such a slimy little pig. He’s one of them I can’t stand seeing on TV.

I think once Obama’s damage has been undone, the executive order needs to be done away with. It’s a way to go outside, over and above, our Constitution.

That’s the problem with “executive orders”. The next POTUS just $hit-cans ‘em.

White House Fears ‘President Cruz’ Will:

Overturn Exec Amnesty
Poison the Drinking Water
Cancel Medicare/Medicaid
Lower Taxes on the Rich
Raise Taxes on the Poor
Reinstate Slavery
Demand Lower Wages for Women
...and on and on

Surprised they pulled out the playbook on Cruz this early - they must be shaken.

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

______________________________________________________

So would I! I’m a writer...won’t go into all of it. But man, that would be a dream job, working for people who love America, to help them effect change. I’d volunteer my services to help get someone in the White House who loves America, who will help wash away all of the past few years...

And no, it won’t be Jeb Bush. I’m sorry, GW; I supported you and still thank you for your service and determination and courage with the massive tragedy and sadness thrust upon you after 9/11; just wish you had defended yourself a bit more.

But as for your brother, I still can’t forget Terri Schiavo.

Sarah, Ted... there is a Dream Team out there. America needs them. Sarah is the only reason I voted for McCain... and I’ll keep sending in my absentee ballots even though they’re probably not counted, since it’s in a blue county.

I hope people will speak up, because there are people like me who will call and make efforts on your behalf.

(I called FL from Canada many, many times when Terri was dying; even conservative friends thought I was nuts. Long story short, I will do what I can from here).

I can't decide which sounds better: "President Cruz" or "Overturn Exec Amnesty."

That and the lame duck sessions. Congress should recess for a week after Eday to allow the losers to clean out their desks at which point the new Congress convenes.
