John Boehner Throws An Epic Tantrum As His Homeland Security Hostage Scheme Backfires

So, republicans should pass funding for Obama's unconstitutional amnesty because Harry Reid says so?

Tell Harry Reid about childish games.

 

Simply not true; They remain temporary if not voided by the next president, but can be voided by any following president. They are not law.....

 

We know who is playing extortion, it's been pointed out to you several times. You just think we're to stupid to know what games your playing. Far from it.

 

Even if the EO is preferential to 5 people, short of a pardon, it's classified "legislation" and not permissible under the Constitution. The Executive enforces legislation, not write it. This said, Obama could pardon every illegal entry into the US for say 10 years, but would be Impeached in a week, by Democrat's, but he still can't grant special privledges.

 

Democrats think they're still in charge of congress. Wake up Mcflys, you're not in charge of squat.

 

Lol then good luck blaming them for this

 

I posted the EO changes earlier, and none of them (from the text I found on the .gov site, anyway) appear to be new legislation. Merely the alteration of enforcement through guidelines. Basically he is taking programs that are already in place, and expanding them. He is basically altering the conditions of enforcement.

That said, rather then try these end run games, why not just run it to the SC as fast as possible and see what they think. That would settle things pretty quickly I would think...?

 

That must be why the Democrats won so big last November.........Oh wait....

 

LMAO....This is what the left wing calls a tantrum. Can you say 'monster hunting'?

Since the "Financing Bill" has not passed Congress, nobody could be harmed, which is needed for legal action.

There only option at this point they do have is the "Nuclear Option", which Reid used to pass the ACA, but then they knew Obama would sign that bill no further action possible. In this case, if they can't get the normal 60, they could never get the 67 needed to over ride a veto. With 67 needed many could vote to oppose special funding, to satisfy their constituents and their party at the same time. It may be political....

 

And democrats claim that the GOP needs to show that they can govern. How about we work together, instead of constantly pressing to the extremes in the hope that the Supreme Court will come down on your side?

 

Funding for DHS is a budget bill and subject to a Reconciliation vote simple majority to pass and can't be filibustered.

 

No, they need to pass Bills that are not DOA and learn to play nice with others, LOL, see I do have a sense of humor.

 

Democrats used that most notoriously to pass ObamaCare, but it depends on a ruling from the Senate parliamentarian that the legislation under consideration will have an impact on the budget deficit and has to be drafted specifically as a reconciliation bill, according to the rules of reconciliation that Keith Hennessey explained in 2009. It’s complicated, and perhaps the reason McConnell hasn’t tried this is because the DHS funding wouldn’t exceed the budget resolutions passed late last year.

 

Nope, what I know is the Repubs pull this same cra*p over and over and expect the People to buy into their BS and guess what the sheeple always do and the rest simply shake their heads knowing that this Nation is in serious trouble. When our form of government throws compromise out the window the Grand Experiment is on its last legs. .

 

LOL, the Repubs win the off Presidential election year elections and lose in the years the major office is in play. I blame Democrats for not showing up every two years but I do understand people get tired of going those elections on an continuous basis. So feel good about your gains but no matter how hard you and others may wish not far right Repub will ever sit in the Oval Office, the American People do not trust extremists.

Let us know when Repubs are willing to compromise on anything and then maybe something can get done.

 

I'm honestly surprised that hasn't been presented as an option. Then again, the level of rhetoric never seems to match the level of action. If they did push it through, then that puts it square on Obamas desk, and the Rs can say they tried, and that would give them a talking point to run with.

Hey, I'm all for rational debate and compromise between two sides, don't get me wrong. I'm just looking at the current situation and the entrenchment on both sides, and trying to find a realistic and speedy resolution.

 

They have bi-partisan support in both houses of congress.

 

It's very rare that we don't see total capitulation by the RINO leadership Boehner and McConnell.

 

Are the GOP literally looking to see how angry they can get the American people?

 

Are the Democrats really set on the total destruction of America or does it just look that way? I don't really worry about the DHS being held hostage while America is being held hostage.

 

John Boehner is faking it unless he cries.

 

No. That's just in your fantasy world. They just have different ideas and focus on different issues than you do.

 

The House Republicans have sent you a bill funding what they wish to fund. It's not their imperative to send you a bill that you'll like. Just like it's not the Democratic imperative to send them bills that they like. What is imperative then, is that legislation is passed which either consolidates the differences or in the case of immigration, there should be no differences: The President's actions are unlawful, the political attempt to bring in more immigrants for political votes is cowardly and is risking to National Security.

Democrats have chosen political expenditure over US interests, and have done so very shamefully. It's in our interest to have only those immigrants who are the best immigrants, it's in our best interests to have the border under control and with a steady traffic flow. Who cares if you win an election, if you govern over a hell hole?

You must put country over party ideology and protect America. Failure to protect America, and you may find that your party's rule will be shortlived even further. I view the latest immigrant benefits as taxation without representation. It's unfair to all the LEGAL Americans who became citizens the right way.

 

Pssst, I am Not a Democrat. The Bill passed The House and the Senate needs to vote on it and either reject it and send it back to the House with changes or send it on to the President and he has the power to approve it or veto it and send it back to Congress.
