BOEHNER TELLS TEXAS BUSINESS INTERESTS THAT IMMIGRATION REFORM VOTES WILL BE HELD AFTER FILING
Harvey Kronberg's Texas Quorum Report Blog for Subscribers Only ^ | 12/3/13 | Scott Braddock

An aggressive timeline for passing comprehensive immigration reform may become a reality based on two significant developments on Capitol Hill.

One of them is that House Speaker John Boehner has hired an Immigration Policy Director who has deep experience in overhaul efforts. The other is that in recent weeks, various Texas business interests have told Quorum Report that Boehner has been telling them that he will start holding immigration votes not long after the filing deadline has passed. This, of course, runs counter to conventional wisdom that says immigration votes in the House will have to wait until 2014.

The statists know that if they don’t ram it through now they will never get to ram it through.

My congressman will be reminded that if a crappy bill comes out of the House (either the initial vote or conference), I stay home next year. If our party is going to commit suicide, I will be sure to reward them appropriately.

Every day this man remains as Speaker is a day of peril for the United States.

That’s their MO, the slippery reptiles. They wait until the end of the year, around Christmas when everyone’s feeling the spirit (everyone but the Demoncrats), and New Year when we all look forward to ringing in a new year—then they strike.
That’s how they passed the hated ‘Patient Protection and Affordable Care’ act back in 2010, by slipping it under the door, the b*******s. Looks like this year for amnesty they will have quisling John holding their coats, that weepy POS.

Subscription newsletter with a 20 year history. Sorry you do not know what a blog is or isn’t. Appears you’re the troll.

Socialism is on the ropes. Instead of closing in for the KO they’re going to blow it all and destroy the party forever.

Boehner absolutely must go. Immediately.

As do anyone else who votes for this. But I suspect they don’t care. Dems will be entrenched and the repubs will make lots of money off the deal. The rest of us lose, unless we make them pay. Water cooler talk seems to focus mostly around fantasy football.
