In their first week in office the new Republican majority passed seven restrictive abortion bills. All of them failed.
Shortly later Republicans attempted to sabotage DHS funding. This also failed.
Republicans then attempted to override Obama's veto of the Keystone XL Pipeline. You guessed it - this failed too.
Here's a crazy idea - why don't Republicans use their majority to ACCOMPLISH something instead of merely obstructing and opposing everything? Immigration reform would be a perfect place to start. If Republicans actually had a plan for immigration reform it would make their opposition to Obama's executive action much more credible.
Will the Republicans use their majority or not?

Whoa there buddy. Gotta give the Republicans some time to shine. They'll show us all how to govern shortly. It'll just be poor.

The GOP will do nothing and stop anything from getting done. Remember the GOP pledge to stop Obama from doing anything from the moment he was first elected?

Why would they do anything ? They believe government can't do anything right, and they're out to prove that.
