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 strongly suspected the historic majority would last only two years.

Could the strategy here be to have this bill defeated on the pork provisions, them come back with a continuing resolution that stalls things until the new majority can be seated?

Remember, Harry Reid is still Majority Leader and Democrats have 54 seats in the Senate and Barack Obama in the White House.

I don’t know Jim....

Clearly “our own guy” RINOmney, said republicans should swallow hard and pass a fuller amnesty than Obama’s.

I am so thankful I didn’t waste time voting for Willard or any other RINO.

To the person who was giving me a very hard time a few weeks back for expressing negativism over immigration and the future of our nation, this is exactly what I was predicting.

[ JESUS IS THE ONLY HOPE

The Order of things (in order) on fixing the government, listed in order on the exits before we hit the cliff.

1. Article V to take power from the federal government and bring it to the states.

2. Active Nullification by the states.

3. Secession BY the states from the federal government.

4. Civil War

5. Jesus....(because we will probably all be dead by this point).

I would prefer to settle this on the battlefield as politics as a engine of change seems to be broken.
