Boehner, undeterred, moves forward on immigration
Breitbart ^ | 2/4/14 | JONATHAN STRONG

Posted on 02/05/2014 8:23:56 AM PST by jimbo123

Speaker John Boehner isn't ready to let the dream die.

On Tuesday, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell told reporters immigration is just not in the cards in 2014. Last Thursday, rank-and-file House members sent a loud message at that President Obama is not the partner for legislation, spooking even top proponent Paul Ryan.

The editors from National Review, Weekly Standard, and numerous other top conservative pundits have urged the Ohio Republican to cut it out.

However, since the GOP retreat last week, Boehner has just kept marching along.

“I think leadership's focus and my focus is to get [immigration] done as early as possible,” said Rep. Jeff Denham of California, who Boehner recently met with on the issue.

“It's part of our conference agenda right now. It doesn't go on the agenda without scheduling bills and scheduling time on the floor,” Denham added.

The first time it was an “interverant mistake that will be corrected later” which was later found to be a lie, now it is just a back stab.

Enforce the existing laws vigorously for the next 4 years and THEN we’ll talk about granting legal status to those who are left.

Auric Goldfinger is much to lenient in my view.

He will get immigration and then retire and get a job with some big business group...

I don't know why this has to be any more complicated than briefcases full of cash which is then wrapped in aluminum foil and placed in a walk in freezer .

You’re welcome. Everyone needs to leave a comment, at that link, FWIW. If nothing else, Bonehead needs to get pounded with comments.

Getting ready to stab someone in the back. I suppose it gets easier the second time.The first time it was an “interverant mistake that will be corrected later” which was later found to be a lie, now it is just a back stab.


Yep. We saw the content of their character on the vet pay cut deal. They can’t walk that back now. Proceed accordingly.

Giving amnesty to millions of law-breaking aliens will displace millions of black American job seekers. If Republican leaders are so hell-bent on portraying themselves as operating against the interests of black Americans, so be it . . .

Ugh. Lindsey Graham. I hate to be reminded he’s my Senior Senator.

I want him to be primaried out SOOO much. If he’s not, I swear to you I’ll do what I did in the last election: hit straight Republican ticket button, then change the vote for Lindsey to the Democrat.

At least with a Democrat I know what to expect, and there’s a great chance to move him/her out after 6 god-awful years. Just like we did with Democrat Governor Jim “This Flag’s Gotta Go” Hodges after his term was up.

Abort millions of black babies. Import tens of millions of Mexicans. There is wholesale population replacement going on and blacks - the ones being replaced - are clueless of their fate.

That’s what happened at a burger king I use to go to in Oakland. It went from all black to all hispanic workers. Almost over night. Oakland!

Boner’s going to keep pushing until one day he discovers that he’s persona non grata back home.
But maybe the bribe money is so good that he just doesn’t care.
