Boehner is doing these empty gestures to try to “appear” conservative so he can undermine real conservatives for attacking him. He will use this and then belittle real conservatives saying they are delusional.
He pretends to take our side until the final hours of decision come. Then he becomes a wet noodle once again.
He is just resting from his normal “screw me, Dorkbama baby” position.
He will bend over again soon.
Boehner’s doing the will of the American people - people who are overwhelmingly against illegals...
An illegal’s not an immigrant anymore than a thief’s an honored guest.
Freeloading, illegal alien invaders ARE NOT IMMIGRANTS. They are freeloading, illegal alien invaders. I am pro-immigrant. I’m for the immigrants who come to America for the opportunities and freedom. Not those who come here for the free stuff and want to make money to send HOME to where they came from.
“The dwindling moderate wing of the GOP sees trouble ahead now that Boehner has joined the Tea Party wing on immigration. Republicans cannot win the White House without strong support from Latinos. This action flies in the face of what most Latinos want to see.”
Boehner will find more “unity” by uniting with conservatives than he will with moderates and democrats!
He may not be sincere but it is better than nothing. At this point it is all we can get.
Boehner has done NOTHING but protect pRes_ _ent Obola
and to keep the borders open, and the EV-D68 coming in,
to coverup the IRS and Fast&Furious abuses,
and to keep the money going out to the “rebels (al Qaeda)”.
Screw the 2016 election. Do the right thing for this country NOW.
Results matter. Boehners results speaks for itself...
“This may hurt the GOP’s chances in the 2016 election.”
No it’s not...
I trust Boehner about this >||< far.
Titles like this annoy me to no end. It bothers me hugely that our absurd press thinks of immigrants as people who pick lettuce and strawberries rather than people working in labs at Universities, at hospitals, in industry, etc..
Do not trust the cryin squishy Cheeto.

“a hard line against immigrants including Dreamers. This may hurt the GOP’s chances in the 2016 election.”
Yeah, boy. American workers desperately want to continue the mass importation of foreigners to take away their jobs. And, for those Americans who have been able to hold onto a job, it’s just dandy to import masses of lower paid foreigners in order to depress wages further.
These political analysts are brilliant.
BS
This is all kubuki theatre. He had his chance to stop it. Now its just meaninless bills that will get vetoed so he can say he tried.
We won’t fall for this BS anymore!
I’m a believer in the possibility of redemption. But I’ll need more than words from Boehner, I’ll need to see the right and effective actions.
I’ll judge Boehner and his compadres based upon their “fruit” and not by their words (which may be meaningless in the end).
I’ll believe it when I see it, AND see it last.
Until then, no way.
