Here's the key sentence there:

"No amnesty bill will pass the House of Representatives so long as Republican leadership holds to its promise to block legislation that doesn t command the support of a GOP majority.

He will blow his power as a leader if he tries to strong arm Republicans into an amnesty scheme for the sake of lame duck Bush. He's not going win that one. Bush is not up for re-election but the rest of the party has to survive him. They have given Bush too much as it is.

It was Hastert who made the pledge.

Ditto, any trust in Boehner on illegal immigration will prove to be a false trust. He is the original, get along, to go along poster child, Boehner will roll like a wet noodle.
