White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that Barack Obama and Speaker John Boehner spoke last week about immigration and the budget. John Boehners 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 theyre 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 nations 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.
Im 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.
Boehners spokesman, Michael Steel, told The Daily Caller on Sunday that the talk took place, but he declined to provide any details.

oh boy
i just don’t see anything good coming from this. In fact, i fear it means really bad things.
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.
I will never vote GOP again if amnesty comes to pass.
F*ck you, Boehner... backstabbing POS.
Jeez, man. You’re gonna make him cry.
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”
Agenda item #1 should be finding someone in boehners district to primary him. The amount less dangerous to our nation is boehner than pelosi can hardly be measured!
No doubt Valerie Jarrett gave them both their lists of tasks to take care of, with expected completion dates.
Boehner is garbage
Tanboy is SOOOOO blackmailed.
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.
