Boehners speech happened just before an illegal alien killed an American woman in San Francisco, shocking the nation.
The speaker of the US House of Representatives Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)35% has told a Dublin audience of his determination to overcome Republican resistance to immigration reform, Arthur Beesley wrote from Dublin, Ireland, for the Irish Times:
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
Boner has pledged to make comprehensive amnesty a top priority. He plans to find ways to overcome those Republicans who've been opposing amnesty in the House. This is definitely something to watch for.
This fits perfectly into what I've long believed about Boner and McConnell and those who keep them in power; they just want to get rid of the troublesome issues. They were glad SCOTUS upheld Obamacare again, and aren't too bothered that same sex marriage was legalized. And now they want the most troublesome issue of all out of the way.
"It's too hard", as Boner said months ago. But what he really meant was it's too hard for spineless Republicans to have to deal with the amnesty issue session after session and they just want to pass it and get rid of the issue.
Here we go again on amnesty.
Retire Boehner before Christmas ,that’s if there is another Christmas in the US
Why is he selling it in Ireland?
I cannot stand that drunken SOB.
If Obama and the GOPe want it to happen, it will happen. It’s game over.
The folks in Ohio that keep sending this POS to Washington should be made to take all the illegals.
It won’t break my heart when they throw dirt over this POS.
Please, voters of OH-8, dump this weasel like we dumped the weasel Eric Cantor.
Amnesty is betrayal of the citizens of the highest order.
They are refusing to enforce the laws they passed and took an oath to uphold.
They are putting the well-being of foreigners who broke into our country above the well-being of the citizens.
Yeah, no more of those criminal Irish crossing the border! Right?!
There are a fair number of Irish illegals in the US and some Irish politicians want amnesty for them. And maybe Boner was trying to take some of the spotlight off Mexicans and Latinos who are the overwhelming majority of illegls.
Because there are quite a few Irish illegal aliens.
All the other countries have been watching the Mexicans and are following their example. They are coming from everywhere now and it must be stopped.
Useless bastard. Amazing what a bottle of booze will buy these days...
Too bad the headline doesn’t read, “Boehner STAYS Overseas”
"Hillary is just like sooo awesome! "
Hmmm...I dunno..illegal Irish, whatever their number may be, is not a comparison that would take some of the heat off Mexican illegals...
He must be raising money and somehow appealing to them on the Irish illegals angle but that really doesn’t make sense IMO.
Boehner does not care what anybody thinks. As retired Speaker he gets over a half a million dollars a year in benefits and retirement. Plus whatever he got under the table to push through the trade bills. As far as I’m concerned, this punch is pretty much destroyed the Republican Party. I really don’t care anymore myself.
Irish are probably the biggest number of white illegals, unless Canada might have more here. But the numbers are small compared to those from south of the border.
Then he must go.
I’m sure those Irish illegals are doing jobs that American’s just won’t do.
I think my idea of immigration reform is far different than Boner’s. Just to prove that they aren’t racist..I would deport all the Irish first. There is no excuse that they have to be here illegally.
I’ve had two Mexican SIL’s and if I made a list of the crimes they committed it would fill several pages. They just do not have the same view of the rule of law...and think their crimes are justified because they are poor Mexican’s.
They have also raised their kids to have no respect for the law.
If his liver doesn’t dry up before he retires, Boehner is leaving Ohio anyway. He’s already got a place in Naples, FL and he won’t be going back to Ohio much.
I know people that know him in Naples. They say he’s pretty much drunk most of the day. He burns one cigarette after another. He is eaten up by power. Clowns like him are what is wrong with this nation.
I Chamber of Commerce is pro illegal immigrants. They’re pro cheaper labor. They own the GOPe.
Utter blarney.
Maybe there is hope. One guy is trying.
