We voted in November - overwhelmingly a mandate - to STOP OBAMA! We expect Congress to STOP this communist fundamental transformation of the greatest country on earth by Obama and his minions. That's what, 1000-2000 people? Why is this not understood and why is this so difficult?

we need to melt down our Reps phone lines insisting that someone make a motion to vacate the Chair...now!

I've already emailed my congressman that this is not acceptable and I expect him to do whatever it takes- including 'voting against the rule' -to stop it.

As the article points out this can be stopped in the Committee on Rules and it can be stopped by Boehner disciplining RINOs who vote for it.

It cannot happen without Boehner's support.

Amnesty is not merely a political vote that will disappear, it is an existential threat to out country. I hope and pray that Boehner will show more concern for preserving freedom and the rule of law than he will for getting along and dodging blame. Unfortunately, I have very little confidence in Boehner or other GOP leaders in DC.

I DOUBT Bonehead will deviate from the normal "One Party" agenda of Washington D.C..

The outcome is predetermined and it doesn't focus on HELPING AMERICA..

Bumping: all we have to do is contact our representatives and tell them this isn’t acceptable.
