Boehner Spokesman Warns ‘Emperor Obama’ Against Friday Immigration Action
The Blaze ^ | Pete Kasperowicz | Nov. 19, 2014 11:39am

Posted on 11/19/2014 7:02:37 PM PST by Red Steel

A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) labeled President Barack Obama as “Emperor Obama” on Wednesday, after the White House leaked to reporters that the president would act unilaterally on Friday to amend U.S. immigration laws.

“If ‘Emperor Obama’ ignores the American people and announces an amnesty plan that he himself has said over and over again exceeds his constitutional authority, he will cement his legacy of lawlessness and ruin the chances for congressional action on this issue – and many others,” Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said.

All Hail Emperor Obama!

The proper salute is scratching your nose with your middle finger.

Yes, the private sector would be hurt. But it would be short term pain for long term gain.

Looking back to the original tea party, the private sector was hurt also. The tea party was just the opening shot. Colonists also boycotted British goods, which no doubt hurt many merchants.

The socialists count on us going about our daily lives while they systematically destroy our constitutional republic.

I agree with the idea of some kind of strike. Possibly a targeted strike would be more effective.

Any ideas on how to respond?

Americans have no jobs in this Obama over regulated economy.

now Obama is going to give amnesty to millions of illegals to take more jobs away

Didn't he say he was "focused like a laser" on the economy?

An answer perhaps.

The President issues an Executive Order that prevents the enforcement of laws passed by Congress.

The House should pass a resolution ordering all civil-service government employees to ignore the executive order. Send it to the Supreme Court for Validation.

Let the Democrats be on record supporting or opposing.

He has done so and Congress does nothing.

That groveling self-serving moron Boehner has got to go.

Article V is our only answer without violence in the streets.

It needs to be done before millions of invading parasites make the evil party of parasites permanent. There has never been a better time than now nor a greater need to do it!

They hijacked the now defunct Democratic Party in the 1970s. The new party consists of the aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus psycho spoiled brats and their bratty ideological litters. The fault is ours. Abe will explain from "the other side."

You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

I think that crisis has just arrived. Let's get it over with. Don't leave it for the children.

I can see why Boehner needs a spokesman. It would be like being threatened by a Bassett hound.

You hit the nail on the head. If we do not deal with this, it will be left for our children to deal with.

This is our fight.

Here is a suggestion.

Make E-Verify mandatory for you.

What I mean is only do business with companies that use E-Verify.

Landscape companies
Maid services
Home improvement etc.

There will still be plenty of illegals working for these companies even after the illegal amnesty.

We can not leave it for our children, because our children will not be equiped to fight back. Given the indoctrination they receive in schools, they will be little different than sheep who follow their leaders where ever they go. They will not have known anything else. We, who remember what America was and what she stood for, need to stand up to those who would destroy her and fight the fight now.

An important message to all congress-critters: If you are willing to let Barack Hussein Obama usurp your clear constitutional powers and obligations in the area of immigration and naturalization policy, you might just as well RESIGN tomorrow, because you are worse than useless.

Would it not be, Emperor Barry? It’s not like it was Emperor Bonaparte, and Hirohito was his first name.

For the record. Personally I believe the "war" is about the Constitution, our Heritage, our inalienable rights, our republican form of government, our freedom, and on and on. The fight is not racial or even ILLEGAL immigration.. though the Left uses both.

I mention this as I read of the rush to buy firearms.

I recall exactly the same thing in the 1960s. There was a major effort to start a race war. And riots everywhere including military in the streets helping to enforce curfews. Many deaths.

But we all realized that we were Americans first. It did not even come close.

In Election 2000 Florida the Leftists were on track to try again..

Here's one that the Dems tried to spark but to his credit Al Gore stopped his party from sparking race wars.

See this FR thread. The NR source I used to cite is 404ed.

the quote is by Karenna Gore and it's about the 2000 post-election day turmoil. It sure seemed to me that the Dems were ready to spark race riots -- which IMO the MSM employees would have used to demand that Bush concede and bow to the "will of the people" (a phrase often included in MSM reports on the election dispute).

"He [Al Gore] said, 'We have to do what's best for the country, and it is not good for the country to have this kind of divisiveness.' And he was on the phone, really calling off the dogs. There were people who wanted to fan the … the flames of the racial issue and have real unrest. And he was on the phone asking them not to, because of what was best for the country not because of what was best for him politically. And that's really who he is."

So we know where Holder and Obama were that night.. :)
