BOEHNER GOES OVERSEAS, VOWS IMMIGRATION REFORM, AMNESTY AT OVERSEAS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Breitbart ^ | Jul; 6, 2015 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 07/11/2015 8:05:56 AM PDT by Will88

Boehner’s 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:

I don't know if this has been posted here before, but it seems to be a major story that got lost in all the other news of the past week.

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.

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.

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.

What needs to happen is someone needs to take control of this Repub party, hopefully a Ted Cruz or Trump and kick these far left radicals the hell out of the party. This is complete and utter BS how these dingbats with completely opposite political views can call themselves Republicans. I mean these guys aren't even middle of the road or even liberal Republicans, they are FAR LEFT RADICALS no different from Pelosi or Obama. Jeb Bush for example, how the hell can this guy call himself a Republican? He's even more far left than Pelosi. I never seen Pelosi giving Hitlery the "Liberty medal" on the one year anniversary of Benghazi like this freakin' Jeb. Absolutely no respect for the families of the victims and here he is honoring her like she's a hero. Absolutely disgusting.

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.

I'd been wondering what sort of district kept sending this character back to Congress. It's north of Cincinatti and contains mostly suburbs, small to medium sized towns and rural areas. His opponent from the last election - a grain elevator manager - is gearing up for another challenge to Boner.

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.

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.

You don’t realise there are about 50k of my fellow Irishmen came to the US and never quite made it back across the pond. You know their cousins have got to hold up the cell phone at their parents’ funeral so their kids in Chicago or Detroit or wherever can listen to the funeral. John, John this is a serious problem.”

Utter blarney.
