There’s widespread doubt about whether this administration can be trusted to enforce our laws,” Boehner told reporters in Washington today. “It’s going to be difficult to move any immigration legislation until that changes.”

[ In Reply To ..]There’s widespread doubt about whether this administration can be trusted to enforce our laws,” Boehner told reporters in Washington today.
That is apparently Boehner's opinion. Fair enough, he's entitled to one.
But then, on THAT predication, he states:
“It’s going to be difficult to move any immigration legislation until that changes.”
In other words he bases the concept of 'moving on with immigration reform' on WHETHER OR NOT this so-called widespread doubt of Obama's ability to enforce our laws changes...
talk about being able to move the goal posts to suit an agenda! What a nothing statement! and how easily parroted HERE as if it means something.
How 'bout we try this? Score another for the Tea Party. (sm) - LM
[ In Reply To ..]"We pushed the Speaker hard to understand that until the border is secure, it doesn't make sense to even discuss reforms, and the Speaker FINALLY CAME TO OUR SENSES,” Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) said in an email to Breitbart News.
Well, any point scored for the TP is a point scored for the - Democrats
[ In Reply To ..]Voters want immigration reform. Again, this is a simple story that all people who live in the real world will readily understand.
TP is completely destroying the GOP. and by doing so is also hurting America.
Most voters do not want immigration reform UNTIL - the present borders are secure.

What is the definition of secure borders? - and
[ In Reply To ..]Why was everything on the right track regarding an immigration bill until the recent Republican retreat?
The fact is Republicans are not going to move on immigration reform for political reasons:
"At their retreat in Maryland last week, many Republicans rejected outright the House leadership’s one-page “standards for immigration reform.” Others said that, with trends going their way as midterm elections approach, it was a bad time to take on a number of contentious issues."
...so they don't want people to judge them on contentious issues. They'd rather have them be judged on no issues, which is all they've done.
but only after his plan was not accepted by his fellow republicans - then he
[ In Reply To ..]comes out with the stock enforce the laws/securing the borders rhetoric, a facade for the turmoil that exists in his party.
Keeping in mind that during this administration more illegals have been deported than any in the past.
Yes, but most have left on their own accord - because BO economy is so bad.
[ In Reply To ..]LOL
Common sense news bulletin - backed by fact
[ In Reply To ..]Not only is the economy better, especially right now, *this* president's actions kept us from total implosion when he took over from bush2.
And where do you come up with this? - "backed by fact"

[ In Reply To ..]It's very telling when Congress has lost trust in the president. Who can blame them though? I certainly can't. Once lied to, the trust is gone forever. Like a cheating spouse...once lied to, it's over. You can NEVER be trusted again.

Tax Refunds To Illegals Under Obama Immigration Action Would Be Stopped By BillMar 10, 2015
Whatever one thinks of the President Obama’s aggressive executive action on immigration—which is still being litigated in the courts—tax refunds for the affected illegal immigrants has itself become controversial. The IRS says that illegals can file and claim refunds for the last three years under the Earned Income Tax Credit. That is the same refundable tax credit that is responsible for billions in fraudulent refunds. IRS Commissioner Koskinen confirm ...

BTW, I applaud AZ for taking matters into their own hands since the government has been so lax in protecting its citizens from crimes committed by illegals. I think this has come to a head since the death of the farmer killed a few weeks ago. It is also a way to force the government to start paying attention. Illegal is ILLEGAL. While others have come here legally, others have followed illegally. It must be stopped but as an af ...

The normal rule is that the IRS can audit for three years, so you can usually go back three years to amend your return or claim a credit you forgot. What if you never had any income or never filed a return? Just wait.

He has said this before, only to back off in deference to election-year politics." It will be interesting to see how "immigration reform" will play out. The majority of Americans do not des ...

Well, isn't it the job of the federal agency to respond to these inquiries? Hopefully, the Judge will dismiss the lawsuit. J ...
