John Boehner pledge: Immigration reform top of agenda (pandering to Irish illegals)
Irish Times ^ | Fri, Jul 3, 2015, 20:47 | Arthur Beesley

Posted on 07/05/2015 6:20:31 PM PDT by Olog-hai

The speaker of the US House of Representatives, John Boehner, has told a Dublin audience of his determination to overcome Republican resistance to immigration reform. Mr. Boehner also told how Taoiseach Enda Kenny has harangued him on the matter, telling him how the lack of reform has left some Irish immigrants listening to a parent’s funeral by phone.

His remarks indicate he may yet move to confront opponents of reform within his own Republican party, which is in the vanguard of resistance to it and has a majority in the House. […]

Imitating Mr. Kenny, Mr. Boehner said he was seated at lunch between the Taoiseach and President Obama. “The Taoiseach says: ‘John, John, John.’ He says: ‘How’s immigration reform coming?’” […] Last Thursday when they met, Mr. Kenny’s message was concise. “The Taoiseach said: ‘I think you understand; just get it done’.”

Mr. “Yes To Love” twisting Mr. Crybaby’s arm on Irish illegals. Talk about an upside-down world.

Looks like those opposed to amnesty are going to have to fight the GOPe leadership again.

It will be a bi-partisan effort, no doubt.

The GOP-e will never back down from such communist-inspired causes.
In the national struggles of the proletarians of the different countries, th(e Communists) point out and bring to the front the common interests of the entire proletariat, independently of all nationality.

The Communists are further reproached with desiring to abolish countries and nationality.
By their fruits you shall know them.

He’s like that without anything in his NSA file. A conservative would not worry about aught in his NSA file, especially when already in office, because it can’t be used against him.

Whatever pretense of a shadow of conservatism Boehner has ever displayed is Kabuki theater. Boehner is doing this quite unforced.

My Grandfather came over on the boat when he was 3 from County Galway, legally.

If you are not here legally then you have to go home, wherever you came from.

I disregard anything he says. My congressman is politically finished after voting for obamacare 4 times and illegal amnesty by obama twice. He won’t have a live town hall. He only does telephone conference calls. The tea party here is ready with a challenger and I will bet the liberal is gone. Get that ? there is no excuse for Boehner doing that— none.

John Boehner, you ass-hole! Try enforcing existing immigration laws and impeach this socialist in the White-house for not enforcing existing immigration laws, maybe then, and that is a great big MAYBE! Americans might support reforming immigration laws to stop anchor babies, and allow the 50 million illegals to be returned and the rest to assimilate into American culture, instead of vulcanizing them into new democrat voters!

Boehner has been bought and paid for by the crony chamber of communist!

We have perfectly good laws on the books. Just enforce them. Everybody here illegally — go home!

Who does Boehner think he is that he has to take orders from a foreign government?
