In a lengthy interview on Friday afternoon, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) exposed how House Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Majority Whip Steve Scalise strengthened President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty with procedural trickery former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber would envy—and they did it all in the name of pushing a bill that they told Republicans would block Obama’s executive amnesty.

To all who say “WORK WITHIN THE GOP”…
Work with these A§§H*LES YOURSELVES, morons.
THE GOP IS DEAD TO ME.

For those who don’t like clicking on links, here are CRITICAL excerpts from the link:
“John Boehner, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Majority Whip Steve Scalise strengthened President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty with procedural trickery former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber would envy—and they did it all in the name of pushing a bill that they told Republicans would block Obama’s executive amnesty.
“I was a cosponsor of the original Yoho bill. I thought it was a very decent bill, it was very short—it was only about a page and a half—and it basically said that anything the president did in violation of current law including what he’s done with ordering work permits for people who are illegally here, it’s illegal,” Gohmert said.”
“They added another section called ‘exceptions.’ by adding this to this bill that’s supposed to claim his effort to provide work permits is illegal, unconstitutional, and inappropriate, the exception that was added gives him a statutory basis for arguing his work permits are now statutorily allowed.”
“We were being whipped—or asked if we were going to vote for the Yoho bill—a day before they even put this new language, the amendment in the nature of a substitute, up,” Gohmert said. “That went up on the Rules Committee website late on Wednesday night, but on Tuesday they were asking people if they were going to vote for the Yoho bill. They were doing a whip count. They were doing a whip count on the Yoho bill without people even knowing what they were going to be adding to it.”
Members were not provided the new text of the bill before they were asked to vote on it, either—something that should infuriate Americans, Gohmert said.
SOBs.
Pure, base fuckery.
Trying not to let my emotions get the best of me here but……
May Boner and his henchmen drown in lakes of their own blood!
Two wings of the same Party – Socialist.
Helluva choice – Bolshevik or Menshevik.
Maybe it’s time to take a page from the progressive’s playbook and stage some Death-Ins like they are doing for Brown and Garner. The conservative Death-Ins could represent the Death of the American Worker. Could be used as protests against Amnesty and/or for Tax Reform that brings jobs back to Americans.
Let’s smash that frickin’ Overton Window for good.
I don’t think people realize the shitstorm Gohmert gets every time he speaks out about his party leadership like this. Dude’s a hero. Boner and those bastards would be tarred and feathered by their own colleagues a century ago for pulling that shit.
The worst part about this is that Boehner&Co. are NOT merely “crossing the aisle” to help the Democrats…
NO. NO.
They are aiding in the unconstitutional acts of the President.
I’m with Czar. This GOP is the best government money can buy. Voting for the GOP and expecting them to do as they promised is as dumb as expecting obomba to not lie.
Quit crying about it and call your representatives. Give them Hell. I did.
Yup Yup Yup.
Rush called it last week and again this weekend on FOX News with Chris Wallace.
Gohmert confirms it.

“I don’t think people realize the shitstorm Gohmert gets every time he speaks out about his party leadership like this.”
The same shitstorm Tea Party members get when they point out the horrors of the GOP.
It is time to ditch the GOP lying traitors and Carl (what the hell is he doing there) Rove and become Republican refugees by joining the Tea Party.
GET OFF THE ROTTEN PRIVY and join real conservatives.
