Confirmed: Boehner Spokesman Mum on Last Week’s Obama-Boehner Immigration Talks
Gateway Pundit ^ | AUG 10,2013 | Jim Hoft

White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that Barack Obama and Speaker John Boehner spoke last week about immigration and the budget. John Boehner’s spokesman refuses to provide any details on the discussions. The Daily Caller reported:

President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner talked about pending political battles before the congressional recess, but White House officials declined to detail the conversation.

Any contact between the two leaders could be critical, because they’re expected this fall to negotiate important budget deals, to clash over delays to Obamacare, and to kill or approve a controversial and transformative rewrite of the nation’s immigration laws.

“My sense is they spoke about a variety of the issues that are coming up for action by Congress,” said White House spokesman Jay Carney.

“I’m sure that would include immigration reform, as well as some of the economic initiatives the President would like Congress to take up… and obviously, the budget issues that we have to deal with in the fall,” he said.

The two talked “shortly before the [House] went on recess, Carney added. “I think it was within the last week.”

Boehner’s spokesman, Michael Steel, told The Daily Caller on Sunday that the talk took place, but he declined to provide any details.

More… Rep. Steve King told reporters this week that Boehner is “clearly for some kind of amnesty.”

For 40 years the Party of Government (both GOP wing & ‘Rat wing) has done all it can to replace American voters with Mexicans.

Now why do you suppose that is?

Well, the conservatives in congress voted to put him in the Speaker position. They can’t complain, after they did this know the job performance of the last two years.

The GOP is the party of all things NOT conservative,
from absent integrity to RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE.

Obama: “And here John are the phone calls you made to the hookers in DC, oh and I love these pictures of you with a woman in bed, say that isn’t your wife is it.”

Bonehead: “Of course I will support your immigration bill Mr President”

It's not that Boehner sold us out, that's a given, but he was told precisely how to sell us out.

No doubt Valerie Jarrett gave them both their lists of tasks to take care of, with expected completion dates.

John is becoming so completely soulless that I am now thinking he is being threatened with a family annihilation if he steps out of order. The globalists running the world are completely dead soul evil, so it may be more than just a threat to expose some degeneracy on record somewhere, it may be he has been told to go along or be eliminated. If these demons will incinerate a reporter, they will certainly not hesitate over a congress critter standing to defy them.

Didn’t Boehner say there would be no more private meetings with BO?

Now that you mention it, I seem to recall that.

Good memory on your part.

Boehner is not going to tell us that he is selling us down the river. But he is.
