House members should issue the following statement-Our Constitution gives legislative authority to only the Congress. Those here in the House as well as the Senate who wish to forfeit that authority to either the Executive or the Judicial branches are in violation of their Oath of Office. If they are either unable or unwilling to stamd up for this principle for the sake of governing as they’be put it, they should tender their resignations to their respective Governors and allow their sears to be filled by some one who will.

GOP senators say it’s time to move on to other issues, such as the budget, trade legislation, and regulatory and tax reform.

Well that's progress then. Turn out the lights on the DHS and lock the door on the way out. Shut it down and move on to those other more important issues. We agree and are pleased not to have our freedoms and pocketbooks further impinged by them.

The bottom line too many pubbies bend over constantly to get screwed by Obama and the RATS. When the RATS had the senate recall how they used the “nuke option”, a mere majority vote, to get fellow RAT judges appointed. Now that the shoe is on the other foot the pubbies continue to let the filibuster rule stand instead of repaying the RATS. Time for the pubbies to grow a set of cajones.

The “Republican” senators who are squawking are nothing more than Obama’s Boy Toys.

Nothing like the stench of Rinos smoldering in the morning.

We will see if the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upholds Judge Andrew Hanen’s ruling on the district level.

Is there anything on earth more useless than a McConnell led, republican senate majority?

There is nothing right now more important than stopping this amnesty in its tracks.

I understand that mclame & missy graham have donors to pay back but it'll have to wait.

If the GOP could unite this is a slam dunk, but w/ the RINOs in charge of the senate the only thing they can think of is surrender.

F'em.

You would think they’d eventually figure it out and WAKE UP!

I’m in a different camp. I believe the absolutely best thing this Congress can do is absolutely nothing. Neither party is trustworthy, and as long as new administrative rules (like this FCC ruling) can be rolled out without any prior comment nor approval by any elected body, my preference is that they do utterly nothing. I DON’T want them to “get stuff done”. They cannot be trusted, they have no interest in serving any other aim other than their own needs.

“We have a lot of initiatives I think we could show the American people we can work together on,” (McCain) added.

“Why don’t we just look at the court decision in Texas, declare victory and move on?” said Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.).

“When the judge ruled, that was the way I wanted to end it,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.).

Fools, all - and an incredibly lazy and puffed-up with-their-own-importance bunch of public "servants" to boot! Haven't these morons learned anything in the past six years?

Do they even care?

Why are we electing them and paying them and their staffs good money?

Why would they call themselves anything but "The King's Court Jesters"?

“GOP senators say it’s time to move on to other issues, such as the budget, trade legislation, and regulatory and tax reform.”

Maybe Mich’s ‘GOP’ senators are living in lala land but the they have no weight on any of those issues unless they happen to just want to pass whatever Obama Proposes.

The Democrat’s run both houses with the threat of shutdown should they not get their way. After Last years surrender, and this years post-election weakness Republicans have 2 choices:
1: Do the bidding of the Democrats.
2: ‘Shut down the government’ and get blamed by the press and all their corrupt & crony Washington ‘friends’.

Washington D.C. is the Democrat’s town. It takes spine to Govern the way you want to, you have to be willing to push beyond the other guy’s limits. The Democrats have the spine the house and Senate leadership don’t and that will never change until the GOP stand their ground long enough for the Dem’s to cave.

That's right. place it in the lap of a single person to decide. What unmitigated twits these low lifes are.

It is THEIR effin job to make law, not let someone declare an injunction and move on.
