Reports are rampant that President Obama will sign an executive order as soon as this week that will allow up to 5 million undocumented immigrants to avoid deportation. Signing such an order would have explosive political consequences it would not only reshape the near-term fights in Congress but also have a potentially profound effect on the two parties national coalitions heading into the 2016 election and beyond.
Republicans have made it clear that if Obama goes forward, it would be the equivalent of giving the middle finger to their incoming majority and, by extension, the American public, which helped the GOP gain seats in the House and Senate on Nov. 4. Chris Cillizza writes The Fix, a politics blog for the Washington Post. He also covers the White House. View
At a news conference held the day after the midterm elections, Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), the incoming Senate majority leader, compared Obamas signing of an executive order on immigration to waving a red flag in front of a bull. House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) said Obama will burn himself if he moves forward.

I'll have a some fava beans with my Chianti.
It should ignite mass demonstrations against the WH.
More like a national uprising I would think - forget about politicians .....
There is definitely something wrong with this guy. Time for the White House shrink?
A political firestorm?
That’s exactly what Obama wants.
The Republicans are deathly afraid Obozo will commit some unconstitutional act and they will be forced to react when all they want is to be the first to grant amnesty to the illegals. The last thing they want is to have to be tough with Obummer.
He has the political savvy of a Clinton...............................Hillary Clinton.....................
The 25th Amendment describes the sequence of events that would install the Vice President as acting President against the will of the President Outline that sequence of events?

The events are as follows:
1. The VP and a majority of cabinet officers write a declaration of the President’s inability and send it to the president Pro Tempore of the Senate and the speaker of the House.
2. The Vice president becomes acting President
3. The President writes a declaration declaring his capability and resumes office.
4. The VP and a majority of Cabinet Officers again declare the President’s inability .
5. Both houses by 2/3 majority declare that the president is incapable of performing hs duties
6. The VP continues as acting president.
There are time limits given for each step and default actions if the time limits are not met. My understanding is that steps 3, 4 and 5 can be repeated.
Obama has the chance to permanently change the course of history in the US and give the RAT party the Presidency for the next 100 years and a huge advantage in congressional elections. With the Presidency the RAT party then gets to fill all vacancies in the Supreme Court with radical leftists. It will be RAT utopia, what’s all that in exchange for a few pizzed off Repubs?
A political firestorm, yeah right blah blah blah. RINO-Es aren’t going to do shet about it. If they cared on iota about this country they would be focusing 100% of all their energy getting this RADICAL MUSLIM AND ENEMY OF THE UNITED STATES out of office ASAP. Make whatever deal they can with Democrats to get the votes to impeach him, WHATEVER it takes because this punk in now gong into overdrive with his “fundamental transformation” which is just code for “complete destruction of the “Great Satan” USA”..Just think- We still got ALL of 2015 and ALL of 2016 to deal with this vermin as POTUS. You think the country is going to survive that? Hell no! He has got to go NOW!
“It should ignite mass demonstrations against the WH.”

I’ll bring the feathers. You bring the tar.
If it is illegal or corrupt or anti-American, we can count on Obama doing it.
“His only goal is to destroy the country, and he only gives a ‘Rats ass about himself”.
I would add that he doesnt care about his “legacy” or public opinion. He only cares about transforming the country and if he has to sacrifice his poll numbers in the short term so be it. The lefty historians will make him a superman in the end.
What if he does his illegal immigration thing at about the time of the Ferguson grand jury decision?
He’s a narcissist. He needs to create a crisis and the hell with the country. This is exactly why he was put in that office. As Gruber said, the dumb american people will just go along with what is given to them.
Having lived in the Washington DC area, I can tell you that I've never seen the Pest so scared. You know they are scared when they mention key facts that does not help the Democrats.
McConnell and Boehner are going to threaten to send a “strongly” worded letter to barack Obama?
In purple ink and with a peppermint candy attached?

This fight is not over, not by a long shot. Game on. Conservatives will be watching.
Call or write your legislator today (the Capitol switchboard is 1-866-220-0044) tell Capitol Hill Republicans that you voted for them to stand tall and fight the Obama Reid plan to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens and that you future support of the Republican Party will stand or fall on their opposition to granting amnesty to illegal aliens and stopping Obama from dictatorially granting amnesty to illegals by executive order, bypassing Congress.
How to fight the Obama dictator? Begin with the lame-duck session of Congress. The GOP cannot allow Harry Reid to pass a continuing resolution that funds the government through the rest of the fiscal year, thereby depriving Republicans of the opportunity to address executive amnesty using its departmental budgets:
