Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is voicing confidence in the prospects for immigration reform in the House, saying that a bipartisan group of lawmakers “basically [has] an agreement” after more than three years of secret talks.

Obama is preparing to launch a major push for comprehensive immigration reform with a speech in Las Vegas next week. Much of the spotlight has focused on the Senate, where a bipartisan group is reportedly close to announcing an agreement on basic principles for an overhaul of the system. That group now includes Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), a potential presidential contender who laid out his principles for reform in the Wall Street Journal earlier this month.

Another potential White House aspirant, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), quickly signed on to Rubio’s outline.

“Even Paul Ryan has jumped to the front of the line with Rubio and said that he’ll support the Amnesty deal. I’m not being defeatist because we’ve already lost. Boner has his 18 RINO votes. There’s nothing that can be done now. That’s why Boner waited until after the election.”

Sadly, you’re right.

The big question now is — will the illegals be all “citzen’d in” and “registered up” to vote by 2016?

If that happens, look like there won’t be many more Republican presidents in American history...

“How nice that they have “a deal” yet nobody out here in the citizenry knows what the hell it is.”

Don’t you understand, that it’s the new “Pelosi rule”?

“We have to pass the bill so you can see what’s in it…”

The RINOS and GOP-e are also trying to turn Texas into a swing state with their upcoming Amnesty deal with Obama. It’s all by design.

Only problem with what the corps idea that the labor will be cheap is that it won’t be.

Once legal, they are going to have to start paying taxes, pay for obamacare and everything else that comes with a legal employee.

Then, they won’t be willing to work for 10 bucks cash per hour.
