RE :” Rep. Xavier Becerra (D-CA) said that he trusted that Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH) would cave on immigration: “Once again, the speaker for the majority party is going to be placed in a position of deciding whether he's going to put country before party and get something done. We just need a few courageous Republicans to stand up and say they're ready.”
Republicans, however, pushed back. “It’s not going to happen this year,” said Rep. Raul Labrador (R-ID). “After the way the president acted over the last two or three weeks where he would refuse to talk to the speaker of the House…they’re not going to get immigration reform. That’s done.”

I tend to believe this above.
Some Dems now see Bohner as their bitch and so he will pass amnesty as he did the bill yesterday

But the attacks and insults made publicly against Bohner over the past few weeks at some times more than Cruz was getting has not put him in a mood to give Reid and Obama anything, and I bet not the others either.

Maybe Reid should have tied amnesty to the debt limit. Too late.

I hope i am right for sure

Boehner is the Spelunking Speaker. He lives to cave. And cry.

“On Thursday, President Obama took to the White House podium to triumphantly announce the end of the government shutdown. In doing so, he proclaimed that he wanted to push forward with other legislative priorities, including a budget”

Obama is not looking for a budget deal. He already got what he wanted. He’s been given permission for NO NATIONAL DEBT LIMIT until Feb 7th. No matter how much the deficit and the borrowing grows between now and then, he will, as he has done EVERY YEAR - NOT NEGOTIATE, never agree to a compromsie on HIS spending, wait and create another 11th hour crisis, with the simple phony threat - default looms, and his demand to resolve it - raise the debt limit or again have no debt limit.

When Obama says: “[I]n the coming days and weeks, we should sit down and pursue a balanced approach to a responsible budget, a budget that grows our economy faster and shrinks our long-term deficits further,”, you can translate that as a budget approach that grows the taxes to match his spending - period. AND when he says “shrinks our long term deficits further it is NOT about the revenue side, which is growing in the current tax regime, but that it - revenue - will never grow Obama enough to match the kind of spending his plans and programs are increasing federal expenses to.

Isn’t Boehner French for massive caverns?

The old joke about progress was that it was, “Three steps forward and two steps back.”

The Republican’s new version is, “Ten steps backwards, and then twenty more.”

Comity is the main goal. So after caving the Democrats insult the Republicans at length, and they rather enjoy it.

Oui...

For probably the first time in history, the Democrats tell the truth. The only question is when will Boehner cave.
