Incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell promised on Thursday morning that Congress will respond forcefully in 2015 to President Barack Obama’s imminent executive action that will defer deportation for millions of undocumented immigrants.
In a blistering speech that quoted Obama’s past statements about his limited unilateral powers on the subject of immigration, the GOP leader did not specify what action that his Republican Senate will take next year

What have conservatives been screaming for since 2008 to every elected Republican—do something against the liberal onslaught. In 2010 conservatives gave the Republicans the House, what have they done with it? NOTHING. We have begged, pleaded and tried to reason with Republicans to act and they talk the talk but never walk the walk. We would love for an Republican to try, why do you think support of Ted Cruz was through the roof by conservatives when he filibustered the budget last year!
If the race baiter McConnell actually delivers great, but his record indicates a lot of huff and puff and then meek surrender. I’m sorry but I’m not drinking the GOPE kool-aid anymore, either do what you say your going to do or shut up and get the hell out of the way for someone who will.
I’m sure Mitch will send Obozo a strongly worded letter. Maybe he’ll sue Obozo.
What a crock. What’s he going to do? Slobber on himself? He is a dottering old fool.
One guy, just one Senator, who says what must be said.
Yeah, and the other wimps just stand there silent or disagree with Senator Cruz.
I know there’s not 67 votes in the damn Senate, but there ought to be.
Obama is usurping their power.
Damn partisan fools.
COME ON PEOPLE, THINK!!!
Promises, promises.
@#%#$!! and W%$%!! but @^%&**!!
If voters could select the Speaker, Boehner would be out of a job. Ditto McConnell.
Voters DO and DID elect the people who will elect the Speaker- in January.
And too many Representatives’ voters will not stand for this.
After the Speaker election what the voters want won’t matter (as usual).
I don’t want forceful, I want successful.
Anyone who trusts McConnell on immigration is a fool.
I have a feeling it would probably go Cruz/Gowdy.
Who in the conservative world would be good at the jobs? Palin as P/VP? Gowdy at inJustice? Coulter in charge of berating the media? Despite Paul’s leanings, could he be the UN ambassador? Or better served in some federal financial position? I do feel we should move toward a more isolationist stance, while obviously keeping open and close ties with our allies around the world. I’m talking about slowing down legal immigration, while bringing jobs back to America (and obviously throwing the illegals back where they belong). Namely, drill our own oil and all that.
