Livid GOP governors threaten legal action over Obama's immigration executive order

A group of Republican governors tore into President Barack Obama on Wednesday over his forthcoming immigration directive and threatened to sue him for breaking the law.

'I would go to the courts,' Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said Wednesday during an annual retreat for the party's chief executives. 'This is illegal.'

Outgoing Texas Gov. Rick Perry accused Obama of 'sticking his finger into the eye of the American people' and said his state may take legal action against the president, too.

Thirty-two GOP state governors united with a GOP-led House and GOP-led Senate in January, 2015 might just turn out to be Obama's worst nightmare.

Many of these states with GOP governors also have GOP led legislatures.

Many of the states (politicians) don’t like this amnesty, yet all 50 states took in illegal immigrant ‘children’ over the past year.

Yes, they could be Obama’s worst nightmare IF they really fight and don’t act like typical Republi-cowards.

Zippo is taking marching orders from the 1960’s extreme radical left.

He’s following the Weather Underground playbook.

He’s orchestrating civil unrest in Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics.

He intends to use violence and the threat of violence to get what he wants.

The states need to lead the resistance. Congress sure won’t.

The govenors should go on TV and immediately impose state-wide fees on Internet access ($100/month), a new renters' fee ($400/month) and fees on anything else they can think of.

Explain that these fees are NEEDED to directly pay for the support of these millions of new "citizens". Make it personal!

Impose these fees by executive order... if it's ok for the prez to use EO's than it's ok for govs to do it too.

Obama Was Against Illegal Immigration Before He Was For it

by Selwyn Duke

http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/immigration/item/19547-obama-was-against-illegal-immigration-before-he-was-for-it?tmpl=component&print=1

“The number of immigrants added to the labor force every year is of a magnitude not seen in this country for over a century. If this huge influx of mostly low-skill workers threatens to depress further the wages of blue- collar Americans and put strains on an already overburdened safety net.” (The opinion of the anti-illegal-alien crusader Barack HusseiObama from his 2006 autobiography The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream)

Obama had super majority in both cameras during the first two years of his presidency, but he didn’t give the amnesty during his first 100 days as he promised to those living illegally in the country… Furthermore, as senator, Obama opposed George W Bush when the republicans tried to give a legal status to those living illegally in U.S.

Susana Martinez R-NM needs to jump on board if she hasn’t already.

I still wonder if it is a head fake, if the actual EO is something small and legal just so they can play off the reaction.

“DON’T THREATEN, JUST DO IT!”

Absolutely right. Deliver first, then tell us about it after the fact.

Otherwise button up.

"Livid GOP governors threaten legal action over Obama's immigration executive order"

Have the governors seen the judges Traitorobama has packed into the federal courts?

They can't do squat at the State level until he promulgates an illegal immigration EO.

You have to wait on Obama to see what the States do.

Yammer, yammer, yammer.

When you stop yammering and start doing something, maybe someone will pay attention. Until then, enough with the grandstanding.
