Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) warned Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) would face a conference revolt that could threaten his Speakership if he allows a House vote on the immigration bill presently being debated in the Senate.
Conservatives have been pressuring Boehner to adhere to the unwritten Hastert Rule named after former Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) that says no bill should come to the House floor unless it has the backing of a majority of a chamber's majority party.
Rohrabacher said if Boehner moves forward with a vote on immigration reform without a Republican majority, it would be a betrayal of his party.

Rubio is so confused and so mixed up I think that he has given up his rightful place to advise any of us in Washington what to do, and certainly given up any right to be trusted by the American people, he said. It was over and over, contradiction after contradiction, lie after lie.

Why did you ever reelect this crying hack? But thanks, Dana, late is better than never.
So Dana.. why don’t you just go for it??? Get the drunk out of the Speaker’s position... do it now.
Why not? He speaks Spanish and RINO-ese.
What exactly is the number of House GOP votes do we have to have to keep this from coming to the floor? A simple majority of the GOP members, no?
Last I knew there were 234 Republicans in the House, which would mean that we need 118 votes against the bill from among them.
Do we know of any anti-illegal immigration groups keeping a count? Can we find a tally that we could start with here, as we work on getting to that number publicly against it?
Why pass a bill with no pathway? I don’t think they’d bother with this bill if it didn’t have that. These people want to absorb the illegals into our society. That’s the whole ballgame here IMO.
“Boner should be removed as Speaker, period.”
TODAY!
” Rubio :Come on guys, I am as conservative as you are. Don’t you hear me criticize Obama? Believe me he will hate this bill and after we pass it we can dare him to veto it and he will be in a corner. Then our immigration problem will be solved for once and for all
Then 2016 Rubio gets the nomination. “
If this happens, by 2016, Rubio will be in hiding: )
” These people want to absorb the illegals into our society. Thats the whole ballgame here IMO.”
That is the SCAM!
He can stay out in the open. He still won’t get my support.
Sure is...
