'via Blog this'

“Let me be clear about one thing: America needs to secure our borders and reform our immigration laws, but immigration reform must – and I mean, must – be grounded in real border security,” Boehner, R-Ohio, said today during a news conference at the Capitol. “That’s what the American people believe, and it’s the principle that this House majority will insist upon.” This is nonsense. Boehner does not know what American people want...Boehner's Tea Party colleagues are holding the Republican party hostage and Boehner wants to call them the "American" people when their constituent base is 75% white...Boehner and the Republicans do not want immigration because President Obama will have to sign it and that is the last thing they want...the  Republican party will not allow itself advocate for "real" immigration...As Michele Bachman said "We are looking at the legalization of over 30 million illegal aliens...This is the most important item in the next four years, what’s going to happen in the next couple weeks. …We have a very short window, six weeks, to kill this bill”. These people are crazy...
