The one thing these Progressives love is power.

And Boehner knows we’re all watching.. and waiting.

His Speakership is as good as gone if he screws us on this!

If Boehner can't stand the heat for being a real American and standing up against RINOs and foreigners flooding our nation then he needs to step aside and let a real American take his place.

It’s hard to tell.

During elections they may be one thing and after elections another.

And don’t forget.. ANYONE can be voted in as Speaker.

That person does not have to be an elected representative.

If a House-Senate Compromise is mentioned, then that means it passed a vote in the House which in turn means Boehner allowed it to come to a vote.

He’s play footsie here and he knows it. He will let it come to a vote. He’ll get the dems and 18 RINOs to pass it, just watch.

I'm thinking my message I've left on his answering machine are making a difference. LOL!

I told him "Republicans don't illegally break into other people's countries.. DEMOCRATS DO!!", and "The Democrats' immigration bill is nothing but a 'Democrat voter recruitment program'.. Don't fall for it!", and "0bama overturned federal immigration laws to create an atmosphere of desperation for immigration reform.. You gonna fall for this evil trick?", and "we don't need REFORM, we need ENFORCEMENT!!!"

This sounds like good news IF Boner is not lying to us. I want to hear what the great one, Mark Levin, has to say about this.

...and lastly, "DEAR SPEAKER BOEHNER, TELL AMERICA "NO LEGISLATION FROM DEMOCRATS WILL BE CONSIDERED BY THE HOUSE UNLESS AND UNTIL ANSWERS ARE GIVEN ON THE IRS/DOJ/BENGHAZI SCANDALS!!!""..

"Why should the GOP advance the agenda of those who remain unaccountable for their many scandals?"

Do not trust this bastard, we have no reason to.

His history is his history when it comes to stabbing us in the back at crucial times.
