Senate Republicans had no appetite for discussing how to thwart President Obamas executive orders on immigration during the conferences weekly lunch, according to a source familiar with the meeting.
Senator Mike Lee (R., Utah) and Senator David Vitter (R., La.) tried to broach the topic, but were ignored.
At different times, Lee and Vitter stood up and tried to begin a discussion about what the plan was and asked leadership about what their strategy was to deal with the spending bill and respond to Obama executive amnesty, and the reply was always an effort to try to change the subject to the ozone rule from the EPA or some other issue, and it was just bizarre, the source said.

A**holes. Hillary is going to SUCK as a president, but she WILL be the next president because the GOP turned their back on the midterm election results.
Business as usual. :-(
Republicans only control two-thirds of the government! Sheesh you impatient right-wing wackos, can’t you wait until they take the WH and everything will be kosher? /S
ALL these politicians are PAID off & on the TAKE!
@ Don Rickles once said “Its Over”!!!
Nothing to strategize. Republicans had choice to defund and impeach or fund and support. They appear to be opting to fund and support Obama’s amnesty. My guess the only thing remaining for them is to hope all this blows over and is old news next year.
Disgusting quislings.
Vote GOPe get more Obama.
Elected to do something - anything - they choose to do nothing, instead.
Politicians - the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Chickensh*t; blatant, in-your-face, I-don’t-give-a-rat’s *ss chickensh*t
The EXEMPT, COMPLICIT RINO Prince:
"Our most beloved King. We in the GOP protect, fund and support you absolutely.
For you, my King, made us, and our families, and our staff EXEMPT."
No no no.. their gripe is they don’t have 60 votes in the senate..
Not that that little issue stopped Reid and co.
They’re all playing on the same team. Not surprised.
Lois Lerner was such a busy little lady. That and FBI raw files have bought Roberts on the USSC and will coerce anyone else who wants to be punished to shut up and go along.
The UNIPARTY is in charge, folks.
CRUZ for President!

Whatever their corporate masters want.
It is simply amazing what some juicy recordings and pictures in the right hands can do...
The CLP (Corporate lobbyist party) has no stomach for this.
Not to be too picky, but we control 1/3 not 2/3.
I’m done with the GOP.
No surprise here. GOP is useless.
