RE :”Are you joking? Any immigration bill coming out of the House will be sent to the Senate for amendment and a vote. They will then send it to conference, where it will resemble the Gang of 8 bill. This is the strategy developed by the GOPe to create a Trojan Horse for the Senate. “

Not joking. The only way a immigration bill will become law this congress is if it gets majority house GOP support, which would make Dems oppose it most likely.

You see a immigration bill passed by Reid getting that?I dont. Reid will only accept citizenship,.

Dems wont even go for a bill that has guest worker with no citizenship, it be like asking GOP to vote for Obamacare.

'Bachmann says...' ??? She's decided to not even try to get reelected again, I assume she will show up as a FNC contributor or a AM show host.

If Boehner brings the bill to the floor, it doesn't need anywhere near a majority of Reps to support it. They only need 25 to 30 Reps to support the amnesty bill. There are at least that many Reps who would vote for it. Boehner has done this before on several bills using a combination of the Dems plus a few Reps to pass it. Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, Goodlatte, Pete Sessions, and other leaders want to pass an immigration bill. The RNC wants an immigration bill to pass.

Reid and the Dems will pass a legalization bill that will lead to citizenship. There will be all kinds of propaganda to fool the low information voters on what is happening. And you will have the Rubios and Ryans claiming that this is not an amnesty.

You are confusing guest workers (temporary work visas) with legal permanent immigrant visas. They are two distinct programs. The Dems and some Reps want to legalize the status of 11 to 20 million lawbreakers by issuing them green cards, which will then lead to citizenship. The Gang of 8 bill also increases legal immigration to 33 million over the next 10 years compared to the decade ending in 2010 with 13.9 million legal immigrants. That decade was the highest in American history.

Bachmann says...' ??? She's decided to not even try to get reelected again, I assume she will show up as a FNC contributor or a AM show host.

What's your point? Are you trying to invalidate the substance of what she said because she is not running again? Steve King, Lou Barletta and many other Tea Party Reps have said the same thing.
