Immigrant teens ambush Boehner at diner
The Hill ^ | 11/13/13 | Russell Berman

Posted on 11/13/2013 10:19:29 AM PST by jimbo123

A pair of immigrant teenagers confronted Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) at a Capitol Hill diner on Wednesday morning, telling him their parents were in danger of deportation because of the House’s inaction on immigration reform.

Boehner was eating breakfast at Pete’s Diner — his regular morning pit stop — when Carmen Lima, 13, and Jennifer Martinez, 16, approached him with a video camera in tow.

After Lima shared her story and asked the Speaker to commit to immigration reform, Boehner told her, “I’m trying to find a way to get this thing done. It’s, as you know, not easy. It’s not going to be an easy path forward, but I’ve made it clear since the day after the election that it’s time to get this done.”

The parents of these kids are not in danger of being deported because of the House’s inaction on immigration reform.

IF they are in danger at all of being deported it is because they are here illegally .

It is unwise for Boehner to be out in public without some security. He obviously has formed a pattern that others have picked up on, which makes him an easy target for any nutball who wants to appease the voices in his head.

The parents are not in danger of being deported because Obama has stopped the deportations of nearly all illegal aliens.

BS! Their parents are in danger of deportation because their parents knowingly and willingly made a conscious decision to skip the steps of legal immigration and sneak into the US. Have their parents take responsibility for their own actions that put the family in jeopardy.

By the same token, the House's inaction in passing a bill legalizing armed robbery nearly got me shot while trying to hold up a liquor store.

By not notifying La Migra Boehner was accessory to criminal activity.

I eagerly await for The sHILL to investigate WHICH demon-rat politician put these two punks up to the stunt.

Amazing, ain’t it, that two punks representing amnesty can get publicity on the HILL, but O’Keefe’s exposure of liberals at Planned Parenthood and on Obamacare’s Navigators is IGNORED?

Face it folks politics as practiced publicly is about placating a bunch of neurotic women, it is literally a battle of feelings, not even personal greed trumps feelings in the rapidly disintergrating USA.

Boehner should have asked them for their address so their illegal parents could be deported immediately.

There’s a really bad “ambush” joke about illegal immigrants. That said, if Boehner’s schedule is this transparent, he may be in danger.

If these kids are 13 and 16, and do not have legal sponsors in this country, they should be deported right along with their parents, legally speaking. So there is no reason for them to whine about mommy and daddy-cry me a f’in river-they get no sympathy from me.

“Why weren’t they immediately arrested and deported?”

The news article indicates that the two teenagers claim that they were born in the United States and thus believe that they are US.

And of they were born here, then they are not “immigrant teens”, any more than I am-they can go home with the parents, when they get deported, but if they want to stay here, they are minors, and need a sponsor.

We should immediately “reform” immigration by enforcing existing immigration law and protecting and securing our borders. Our elected governing class should do what they said they were going to do in order to get the last amnesty passed.

I would have told them to FOAD and get the hell out before I have my body guards thump them. They don’t like him, would never vote for him and would never be anything but National Socialist Democrats. Who cares what they think.
