RULES COMMITTEE REPUBLICANS MEET, WRITING 'BLANK CHECK' FOR OBAMA'S EXECUTIVE AMNESTY TODAY
Breitbart ^ | December 10, 2014 | by MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 12/10/2014 12:30:06 PM PST by Jim Robinson

In addition to Rules Committee chairman Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX), who is getting set to have his committee mark up the President Barack Obama executive amnesty-backing omnibus spending package Speaker John Boehner introduced late Tuesday, there are eight additional Republicans on the committee who will officially enable the bill on Wednesday afternoon.

Those Republicans on the Rules Committee—who will provide the procedural cover Boehner needs to get the Obama executive amnesty backing bill onto the House floor—are: Reps. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), Rob Bishop (R-UT), Tom Cole (R-OK), Rob Woodall (R-GA), Richard Nugent (R-FL), Daniel Webster (R-FL), Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) and Michael Burgess (R-TX). If any of them votes to advance the bill to the floor, they are in effect endorsing everything contained within the legislation—including the never-ending funding for Obama’s executive amnesty for millions of illegal aliens.

The Rules Committee mark-up hearing is set to begin at 3 p.m. and will be broadcast live on C-SPAN.

I wonder if they're aware of the Sheriff's March in Washington, today?

The Sheriff's expect REPUBLICANS to enforce existing laws and secure the border.

Let's watch and see what happens in the Senate.
The bill is a pig slop bucket count on it. All the hogs need to be bought.
Some hogs might get dissed and pissed.

I have no problem with a blank check as long as it made out correctly...Zero dollars and no cents. Anything greater than that is a sign of mental incompetence.

Thank the lord we didn’t stand firm and vote conservative, because it would have been worse if the Dems voted to fund amnesty and Obamacare.

See, this is the effect of voting for the RINO.

Exactly 0% difference.

Timely post. The hogs, pigs, Pelosi, and Conservatives don't like the big money/Obama BS bill.

"Spending bill hits hurdle as Pelosi demands changes, conservatives peel off"

The spending for the “amnesty”only goes until February when everything has to be revisited. Given that Christmas break is coming and the New congress convenes in January...not much time for the money to be spent or any thing to be done.

The senate isn't needed to stop this bill. The Republican House that is voting for it can stop it.

“” I will never vote republican again!””

“We must win” all the Conservative pundits said. “It’s the biggest election ever” they said. “It’s the only way to stop the rat” they said.

In 2008, I believed it. In 2012 I held my nose. In 2014 it was a must.

There is no 2016 for me. Done, finished with the Republican party and that includes Cruz, Lee and the rest of them. Since they cannot stop their own party from imploding they are of no use to me.

2 members of the rules committee are Tea Party Caucus members: Nugent and Burgess.

Want to hear what they say. So far nothing.
If Boehner hasn’t cowed both of them we have a chance!

Really? Congress can write checks faster than you can read them. This is pure, unadulterated treason.

That’s it there is a movement already in the UP of Michigan to join with Canada. Damn the Canadians come here and their money is worth more than the American dollar. There more Canadians up here that own properties than Americans. may as well be with Canada, Lansing has forgotten us. It is sad to see what is becoming America another socialist hellhole. may as well join Canada, because when America splinters apart Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota will be absorbed by Canada.
