You don’t want Boehner to have an immigration vote and so far, he has not. Why not sent him a thank you note ?

Is Boehner sincere when he says he wants a vote on amnesty? Or is he simply giving the GOP business lobby a taste of something he never intends to deliver on?

There is broad consensus in gope that the dreamers (kids under 20 but who have lived here almost their whole lives) must be allowed amnesty for humanitarian reasons. The Gope believes in compassion and common sense for others.

That is if you are from Brazil since the age of 2 and don’t even speak portugese, you get to stay because you are American and Brazil might as well be Mars for all you know.

There is broad consensus in Gope that the adults who have been here a long long time and are not criminals except for immigration crimes, that they also should have some path to citizenship.

There is broad consensus that the illegals who are criminals in other ways in addition to immigration crime will go.

There is broad consensus the adults who are not long term US residents will not get amnesty.

There is mimimal consensus about people in between these catagories.

There is broad consensus in Gope that the border must be sealed and a Canadian type immigration quota system put in place.

There is broad consensus in Gope that the democrats and Harry Reid and Obama in particular can not be trusted to negotiate in good faith or in implementation.

I think there will be no bill until 2015. If the republicans gain 10 seats in the senate, the republicans will then vote out a bill totally to their liking and plunk it down on Obama’s desk. The bill will have amnesty for the dreamers, some long term residents with penalties, no amnesty for short term residents, and a dramatic sealing of the borders and a revamped canadian style system for future immigrants.

It will reflect the goals of Gope which is common sense mixed with conservatism mixed with compassion.

It will be interesting to see if he signs it.
