Foes of illegal immigration accused House Speaker John Boehner of signaling his willingness to consider an "amnesty" bill after his office hired a longtime policy aide who has advocated legalizing undocumented immigrants.
The speaker's office announced Tuesday that it had hired Rebecca Tallent as a point person for immigration issues. Tallent previously was director of immigration policy for the Bipartisan Policy Center -- but before that, worked for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and played a role in the drafting of the 2006 and 2007 immigration reform bills, which provided a pathway to legal status for some illegal immigrants.

I think "bending over" would be more appropiate.
Stop this immigration sell-out.
American jobs have been exported to every country in the world, and yet we want to import MORE AMERICANS?
Stop it. Bring back American jobs, and hire Americans.
NO MORE IMMIGRATION.
Hire Americans.
I guess it’ll be a new party, then..........
Strike one...strike two...strike three...yer out!
GOPe does it again. Now tell me why I should vote for anything but Tea Party conservatives?
here is the pos America hater
Pass amnesty and welcome 12M new dhimmis, w/ hands out looking for free stuff
Stop amnesty and the existing "hispanic" population votes straight dhimmicrat-- this'll hurt in the southwest.
But the point is that either way the vast majority of hispanics are going to vote dhimmi so F'em.
Does anybody seriously think that if the GOP votes for amnesty that they're going to get a majority of that vote??
40%?
30%?
In my view if the immigrants want the support of Americans (not politicians) then those immigrant activists need to cozy up to us, not the other way around.
We live in an era when our political leaders can't wait to undermine the very people they've been elected to represent.
From a link on Drudge:
SOURCES: BOEHNER TELLS TEXAS BUSINESS INTERESTS THAT IMMIGRATION REFORM VOTES WILL BE HELD AFTER FILING DEADLINES HAVE PASSED
Fear of Tea Party challenges has the Speaker holding off for now, sources say
Lots of czars in our government these days. Just saying....
You can’t tilt to where you already are.
This is BS what Bonehead is doing...not just passing amnesty, but cowardly waiting for the vote til after 2014 filing dates have passed. TRAITOR!!
Boehners new amnesty directors talking points. She conveniently leaves out the part about the permanent democrat majority.
immigration reform would:
Spur economic growth. Immigration reform would cause the U.S. economy to
grow an additional 4.8 percent over a 20-year period, including 2.8 percent in the
first decade (as measured by gross domestic product, or GDP). Annual average
growth would be 0.24 percent higher, peaking at 0.35 percent in FY2019FY2023.
Reduce federal deficits. Cumulative deficits would fall by nearly $1.2 trillion over a
20-year period. About $180 billion of this reduction would occur in the first decade,
and $990 billion in the second decade.
Jump-start the housing recovery. Immigration reform would dramatically
increase demand for housing units. This would increase residential construction
spending by an average of $68 billion per year over the 20-year period.
Expand the labor force. By 2033, the labor force would be 8.3 million people
larger, an increase of 4.4 percent compared with the baseline.
Offset aging of the workforce. After accounting for fertility, mortality, and
emigration, immigration reform would add 13.7 million people to the population by
FY2033. Just 6 percent of these people would be age 65 or older. By comparison, the
Census Bureau projects that 20 percent of U.S. residents will be 65 or older in 2030.
Increase long-term wages. Wages would initially fall due to the large influx of
workers, but rise in the long-term. Real wages in FY2023 would be about 0.2 percent
below the baseline, but would be 0.5 percent higher than the baseline in FY2033.

It's not "we" doing this and they want to import more NON-Americans.

And there you have it. The big corporate interests which back RINOs want illegals brought in as a source of cheap labor. The GOP wants their cash.
The Dems get their cash PLUS the votes of illegals. This entire problem was MAGNIFIED under the reign of Jorge El Segundo and augmented under Obama.
At least they are not Muslims.
Thank you, Jane Long!
Something about chimpanzees mating with pigs....
So, it appears that they have enough GOPe and dems to pass amnesty.
