Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) blasted President Obama’s executive order on immigration, saying the president needs a “remedial civics 101” course to refresh his understanding of the Constitution's separations of power.
“There is an appropriate way to address this, and it’s not amnesty,” Cornyn said on the Senate floor Thursday. “This is really a terrible precedent.”

Do they even teach civics in school anymore?
I don’t disagree with Cornyn, just wonder if lots of people will know what he means in referring to a civics class.
Obama doesn’t believe in the Constitution. He’s said often enough that it limits what government can do. There are only two things that can change him. One is with prejudice. The other is with Extreme Prejudice.
What he needs is to be impeached and removed from office in shame.
Ain't nobody got tim fo dat! I'm late for Intro to Islam class, and then I have to hurry off to Jackin' It - Masturbation and You. My 40 year old teacher says he's gonna help me get an A!
Why the hell would you ever say impeachment was off the table?
Texas Sen. John Cornyn, the incoming Senate majority whip, said Wednesday that the GOP response needs to be “appropriate” and measured.
“Nobody’s talking about the ‘I’ word like the White House and others,” Cornyn said. “They would love for us to take the bait. We’re not going to take the bait.”
“Impeachment and shutting the entire government down takes the focus away from him to us,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. “There are some people in the conferences that will have their 15 minutes of fame over this. But the rest of us want a Republican Party that can compete across the board in 2016.”
Michael Steel, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, had a similar response when asked about impeachment: “The speaker has said we have no current or future plans to go down that path.”

Really, John? That’s all that Traitorobama needs... a “remedial civics 101” course?!?
You pathetic pile of RINOpoop!
A Civics lesson is lost on someone who doesn’t recognize the Rule of Law.
Yes Obama does need a lesson in civics and Cornyn needs a lesson in conservatism.
Obama is just a gum-chewing, teleprompter-reading Shill. It’s the Democrat Party that gave us this mess. They could put a stop to Obama in a second if they wanted to. The Democrats just took a whipping in an election, so they are bringing in Democrat voters from outside our country.
There are two nations within our borders. There is The United States Of America and there is Democratland. The citizens of Democratland get their money by taking it from the citizens of The United States. The citizens of Democrat land will do anything, ANYTHING, including shipping in foreign voters, to continue to be able to take money from the citizens of The United States.
There is no more civil debate between the liberals and conservatives. The liberals have been doing anything to win. You don’t have a debate with someone who is trying to destroy you. You destroy them.
OBAMA’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL AMNESTY TO MIGRANTS THAT ARE LIVING ILLEGALLY IN THE U.S.A.
After destroying the best health care system in the world, Obama is determined to grant wide amnesty to foreigners living illegally in U.S. If Obama wants to make the U.S. into another banana republic, it seems he is well underway to reaching his goal.
The Republicans must make it perfectly clear that Obama has declared a merciless war against the American workers and the middle class of America. There are 92 million of able Americans out of the work force because they cannot find employment and Obama wants to legalize and give work permits to over 11 million illegal aliens allowing them to bring here the rest of their families. In other words, another 25 or 30 million that either will compete with Americans and legal immigrants searching for scarce jobs or are going to be added to welfare, bankrupting Medicaid and the food stamp system as well as ruining even more the quality of the public schools with the massive infuse of hundreds of thousands of children without speaking English to already overburdened schools systems.
Blacks are going to be the main collateral victims of Obama's anti-Black amnesty. Black Americans are already suffering higher unemployment since Obama took power. Obama’s new class of protected immigrants will take over their jobs and Blacks will be forced to share their welfare checks and food stamps with them

Congressional inaction???
That is bull. Obama is not a “divine right king.”
It is the duty of conscientious legislators to block the passage of bad bills. This activist nonsense is ridiculous. The Congress is not the Supreme Soviet where the members must rubber stamp the dictates of the beloved leader.
Well, watcha gonna do about it, John-boy? Nothing more than sound bites, yeah that’ll show em! /sarc
He’s a psychopath. What does he care about civics?
I believe we're seeing the Wash D.C version of Kabuki theater.
No, john, he needs arrested, charged and tried...and probably imprisoned for his crimes.
