If the Chamber of Commerce’s $50 million fails Boehner will use his Nuclear Option and pass amnesty
Coach is Right ^ | 12/30/13 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

We’ve heard a lot about Harry Reid’s “Nuclear Option” to kill any power Senate Republicans might have thought they had. Now we face the threat of John Boehner using the House version of the “Nuclear Option” which he will likely sneak into law during a marathon Friday night/Saturday morning session as a last ditch weapon to keep the TEA party from gaining power and saving America from people like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (USCoC).

The (USCoC) is determined to help Barack Obama and his Democrats destroy America. It has pledged to spend and spend some more to defeat TEA party candidates and its mantra is: “No fools on our ticket.” The “fools” here are TEA party...

The best political option for Boehner is the let the political season play out and use a lame duck session after next fall’s election to push it through.

Amnesty would distract from the Republican Party’s-GOPe strategy of Obamacare as the issue for the 2014 elections.

I see amnesty for illegal immigrants coming right before Christmas 2014 as payback for all that $$$$$$ to support the 2014 campaign.

oh come on, you’ve never seen party leadership change factions or in other terms, change control from conservatives to others, and vice versa? like it will never happen ever again? or it’s now impossible to do it?

boner is scared to death of the tea party. thus the hysterics and reactions of the gop-e. they don’t act this way for people they don’t believe can harm/defeat them. that means tea party has real power and is considered a serious force requiring such a response, cuz if they lose, they know they can take power away from the rinos/gop-e leadership.

ps boner is now going full-blown Crist. /charlie crist, not Christ

The cards have been on the table for some time now. Why are those who are truly for America still fooling around with the Traitorous Republican Party? What has to happen or be said to realize ‘working within the party’ is an exercise in futility?

Third party or stay home election night.

I also will not vote for anybody who is for amnesty. Amnesty is a sure way to destroy this country.

Anybody who promotes amnesty hates this country, is bribed/blackmailed, and/or is delusional.

You can see them on the Military benefit threads questioning why vets SHOULDN’T take a cut...

I'm sorry. I don't understand. Are you saying YOU support cutting veterans' benefits, or that THEY support cutting veterans' benefits ?

No, I am saying that I have seen several posts with supposed conservatives on FR arguing that cutting vet benefits was OK to one degree or another.

I am 100% opposed to ANY cut to military benefits.

Interesting notion...let's take it out for a test drive.

Do you expect at some point in your lifetime a Democrat Party less left than, say, 2000-2008?

During my lifetime, the Repub party has only moved to the right once, in 1980-1988. From 1960 on there was perhaps Goldwater, who was a defense hawk and a social liberal...but during that entire time, there was only Reagan.

Exception noted, the path of the party has been slowly left over that time period. The character of the party has been pretty consistently Michel-like (again, with the exception of Reagan and Gingrich).

Am I wrong? Is there any reason to expect different?

to say it never will happen means you elieve it’s impossible to kick rinos and gop-e’s out of party power.

the libtards aren’t afraid of beating them, but we’re supposed to surrender to them and let them retain the party?

whatever.

I believe that RINOs are by definition the establishment.

I don't believe it's impossible to kick them out of power, but I believe it's highly unlikely and therefore foolhardy to invest time and effort to do so.

You think of that as "surrendering the party" but I'm no longer in denial...it's not my party, it's theirs.

I now understand it's never been my party...and becomes less so, if possible, over time.
