I can see a GOP cave on immigration, on the grounds of the demographic argument that the leadership will make. So, I figure amnesty (or close to it) by June of this year.
Guns....I really don’t see that. They need to have some red meat to show the GOP base, so they won’t go for that.
My first act of 'business' in this New Year was to remove myself from the GOP voter rolls on Wednesday morning, changing my registration to Independent.
Not one thin dime will go to a GOP 'committee' at any level .. time/money contributions to individual candidates ONLY.
The spineless pukes want to ignore us ? Both sides can play that game !
If a FEW,000,000 of us did the same, there's just a chance - albeit a slim one - that it might make a last gasp difference.
Being Speaker is a thankless task these days. Not only do you not get thanks...you also have hate thrown at you on a daily basis.
The Tea Party couldn't find someone willing and able to take the garbage that goes with the office regardless of the verbiage that they've put out lately.
I’ll bet Uncle Buffoon’s fingerprints are all over the railroad dirty money....

Pretty much where I’m at, TK
Hope people keep reading your support for failure. And your post history. The faster you discredit yourself, the faster the rest of us can work to fix the mes your friends made.
OK, good argument
But caving on immigration would be a disaster, those won’t be our votes being legalized
My Congresscritter, Doug Collins, voted for that loser. No sooner does he get in office, he starts screwing up.
The attacks on Boehner are just over the top, knee jerk reactions that ignore the FACT that the RATS already had a tax increase on every working American it nothing was done. So he really had no leverage to work with. We’ll see what happens when the debt limit comes up in a couple months, when the situation is reversed.
I’ll be the bloody Speaker of the House, I’m not afraid. They won’t like me. None of ‘em...
Illinois blinked. The wave is started...only Obama could do gun control now. I hope Cuomo gets the message.
At least we don't have to worry about telling them apart....
Either that or they'll pull another "Reichstag Fire" event.
Either way I think it only delays things by months. CWII seems inevitable.
The American taxpayer no longer has any representation in DC.
Whatever came of the 36 billion in cuts we were supposed to get from the last debt ceiling deal? Not that 36 billion in cuts amounts to anything when compared to the affects of raising the debt ceiling.
Boehner will cave, you can bank on it.
Amen, Norm
