‘Open Rebellion’: Chaos if Republicans Don’t Withhold Funding for Obama Executive Amnesty
Breitbart.com/Big-Government ^ | 11-19-2014 | Matthew Boyle

Conservatives say that Republican leaders, including House Speaker John Boehner and incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, will be “complicit” in President Barack Obama’s planned executive amnesty if they don’t pull out all the stops to block him.

They warn that chaos is around the corner if that’s how it goes down, even though they’d much rather have Republican leaders fight the president alongside them.

“Fight or be complicit in lawlessness,” Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton told Breitbart News, is the message to congressional GOP leaders on Obama’s amnesty.

If Republicans move forward with the plan from House Appropriations Committee chairman Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY) to fund the entire government—including Obama’s executive amnesty, which the president is set to announce on Thursday night—in an omnibus spending bill, a Senate GOP aide told Breitbart News conservatives will spread chaos across Washington.

“If Obama announces executive amnesty and the House passes an omnibus with no language blocking it, there will be no Senate vote, because conservatives will burn down the Capitol,” the aide said. When asked to clarify if he was serious they’d burn the building to the ground—or if he was speaking metaphorically—the aide said “open rebellion.”

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX), one of many Republicans conference-wide who will be helping lead the charge to force Boehner to stop Obama, told Breitbart News that Republicans must stand and fight—and that they can and must win.

“Even though around three-quarters of voters this year opposed the idea of executive amnesty, President Obama is apparently going to announce his new royal amnesty decree before going to Las Vegas to promote it,” Gohmert said,

Add this to ways Congress can throw a monkey wrench into Obama's unconstitutional E/O:

PREMISE Boobamba says he will “legalize” 5 million undocumented aliens “living in the shadows in the USA”. Aside from tackling the monumental legal issues....Congress needs to observe exactly how the WH will implement "mass clemency."

==============================================

How exactly will Boobamba require these "shadow people" to demonstrate their eligibility? Besides overlooking the fundamental problem..... like lack of a legal residence.

THE CONTRA-INDICATIONS:

(1) The level of foreign documentation these people have is somewhere between zero and nada. Hellholes where the citizenry crap in a hole in the ground do not usually handout documents.

(2) Ergo, we can safely conclude Boobamba is prepared to accept zero documentation as sufficient evidence to prove that one is a "shadow person."

(3) Conceivably not 5 million...but 25 million more "newly-discovered Americans" might emerge from the shadows thanks to Boobamba.

(4) And who might those newly-discovered people be? B/c if the Federal standard of proof is nothing, anyone can prove they are a "newly-discovered American."

=============================================

All laws have unintended consequences. Congress should act to throw Obama's non-law back in his face the minute it is signed.

Our leadership reminds me of the cavalry joke. An officer rides up to a pedestrian and demands, “A bunch of men rode by here. Which way did they go? How many were there? I must know these things because I am their leader.”

It’s good, but it’s not enough.

We need to find out WHY Boehner, McConnell, and the GOP-E are implicitly supporting Obamnesty on this.

Is it simply because the Chamber of Commerce pays their bills?

Is it because someone, somewhere, has pictures of them in bed with transsexuals?

What is it?

Find that out, and you find the weak point to which you can really apply pressure to force our desired change onto them. Until them, calling them, posting angry comments on forums, etc. will do nothing, since that is not the pressure to which they have to respond.

State law enforcement should make sure to arrest all illegal aliens regardless of what obama does. The law is the law.

And by “fight”, we mean destroy this executive order abomination, not whine about the lawlessness and talk it to death like you pu$$ies usually do.

Open rebellion, discord, mutiny, etc. are exactly what Obama wants and why he’s doing this.

If it is/was such a great idea, why did he wait six years or why can’t he wait a couple more months and work with Congress?

He wants to divide the GOP caucus and demoralize GOP voters so they stay home in 2016. When GOP voters stay home, Rats win. Plain and simple.

we can hire a lawyer to apply to the Supreme court for an emergency injunction to stop this unconstitutional executive amnesty order. or we can get one of our state attorney generals to do it as in the attorney general of Texas.

Americans have no jobs in this Obama over regulated economy.

now Obama is going to give amnesty to millions of illegals to take more jobs away from Americans. and also Obama will grant many more new work visas , 500,000 technology work immigrant visas

all of these orders are unconstitutional and illegal by Obama

we must call and protest until Obama resigns. we have to go on strike and not buy anything also only food

I am an American, born and raised; I am a Vietnam veteran; and I’ve played by the rules my whole life. I want to know what laws I can break, that, by breaking will I not only NOT be punished, but I’ll be rewarded.

Yes they do, but why do we have to keep doing this under every administration, no matter which "team" has the majority or the white House? They intend to do it no matter what we say, eventually, and they are showing their hand more every time it comes up, by the very fact that it keeps coming up, and we keep having to "hold their feet to the fire" (the GOP, I mean), every few years.

I think they have something on Boehner. The guy clearly has some emotional issues (for instance, he weeps at anything and nothing and everything in between; that does not suggest emotional stability). I think he has been compromised and thus neutered.

The new detail in this article that I’m glad to finally see in print is to use governors to assist in fighting 0bama.

It would be large to see 36 [or whatever the number is] governors choose to not enforce any of 0bama’s crap. Not just immigration stuff... EPA stuff etc. Fight like they mean it.

For the same reason that this comes up almost like clockwork, no matter how successfully in the past we've managed to head them off-because they want it. They never give up on it, and the more we voice our opposition, the more they are forced to show their real faces, which is that they are determined to have it, and if they have to pass it or "let it pass" in spite of our continued opposition, they will just be forced to come clean about the fact that they are determined to pass it.
