Mitch McConnell: Immigration issue is an ‘irresolvable conflict’ in 2014 (Cornyn comment!)
Daily Caller ^ | 2/4/14 | Matt K. Lewis

Sen. Mitch McConnell Tuesday referred to immigration as an “irresolvable conflict.”

“I don’t see how you get to an outcome this year with the two bodies in such different places,” he said during his weekly press conference. He was referring to the fact that the Senate passed comprehensive reform, while the House is pursuing piecemeal legislation.

Keep in mind, this comes on the heels of McConnell’s number two in the Senate, Texas Sen. John Cornyn, saying he was “very skeptical that anything’s going to happen between now and November” — and that: “I honestly don’t think [it] is advantageous to us between now and November to engage in the divisive discussion about immigration.”

McConnel’s words mean nothing....unless he's been chatting with Boehner,which I doubt.Either the Rats have something on Boehner (as they very probably do on Roberts) or he's been promised a lobbying gig at the Chamber of Commerce *if*...

Cornyn is saying “We’ll pass Amnesty in the LAME DUCK SESSION IN DECEMBER!”

Did he shed a Boehner-dile tear when he said it?

Doesn't that just say it all about this puke?

Not a word about how granting amnesty to tens of millions of illegal invaders will begin a chain reaction of even more illegal immigration, and how such a thing will effectively kill America as a country.

Not a peep about refusing to reward lawbreakers who've destroyed the wages in industries across the board, and put tens of millions of Americans out of work.

No, his only concern is how it will affect him and his fellow quislings in Congress, come election time. He'll gladly support amnesty for illegals after he and his pals are safely re-elected.

Hint to the GOP. Come up with some spin that puts Obamacare and the Obamaconomy front and center, like “illegal immigration will always be with us, but our energy should be used to stop the damage Obamacare and the Obamaconomy are doing to America and Americans.” Focus on the obvious winner. Let your hearts bleed for American citizens.

Loyal RINO Obamacrats Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, McConnell, Cornyn, and McCain will run to Obama’s side and rescue his highly unpopular “Obama Amnesty for Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico” with the even more unpopular “RINO Amnesty for Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico.”

Always eager to fail, the RINOs have decided at their weekend RINO hug fest that rescuing the already failed Obama Amnesty Plan is just to tempting a guaranteed failure to pass up.

Boehner’s support will guarantee that no RINOs will ever again receive any Latino votes.

Come on, Jimbo. Do you really have to insult pieces of crap like that?

These two are so scared that they are probably in the Senate washroom each with a pair of tweezers trying unsuccessfully to locate their atrophied testicles.
