House Speaker John Boehner plans to push amnesty legislation through the House, after the primary filing deadline for candidates. The move would prevent Tea Party from challenging GOP lawmakers who support amnesty in 2014.

OK John, not a problem.

All of the base can now safely assume that a candidate is pro-amnesty UNLESS they publicly campaign that they are NOT pro-amnesty and then be vetted by local and state TEA Party organizations.

By making this move the dummy just pushed amnesty out to the front of the campaign issues.

What a moron.

I was thinking along some of the same lines. Now that we know Boehner’s plan, it doesn’t make any difference.

Only problem is if amnesty is a tar baby. Do they want us to go near it because most Americans have been cornswaggled into being for it?

I revert to my basic maxim: Do the right thing and let the chips fall where they may. Put this fact (of Boehner’s plan) in the hopper with everything else and run primary candidates who are against amnesty, among other things of course.

So, what if they get the cursed thing through before the elections? Does that harm all our tea party anti-amnesty candidates? Repeat step one: Do the right thing. Their campaigns alone could change the tide, a collateral benefit.
