IF Obama gets amnesty and the GOP helps him Republicans get nothing, nothing good. Dems get the credit. That would be pretty stupid.

"Would be?" That seems to be exactly what is happening, or at least what Boehner is trying to do.

But what Boehner is doing does surprise me. Maybe I need to turn my cynicism up another notch...

Boehner's folly is not shared by the entire House, though. LINK: Rep. Steve King, Iowa Republican and vice chairman of the House subcommittee that handles immigration, took to Twitter to reject that rethink, saying the GOP shouldn’t get into a bidding war with Democrats to try to buy Hispanics‘ allegiance, because they will never bid high enough.

Boehner does not seem to remember the 1964 Civil rights acts. Republicans voted for it more than Democrats but guess who got the credit and the black vote for the next 50+ years?

There is no evidence that going along with democrats will do anything but screw us over the long run just like the 1964 “civil rights act” did.
