Is Boehner Planning an “October Surprise” on Amnesty?

Has the so-called “Paper of Record” (owned by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim) given us a hint of outgoing Speaker John Boehner’s last great sell out to the Obama legions?

In a recent editorial, the Slim-led paper speculated

Mr. Boehner is free of them now. And so now is his chance. In the days he has left, he can revive immigration reform. He can pass the large-scale, comprehensive overhaul that lawmakers had worked on for years, a bill that passed the Senate in 2013 with strong bipartisan support and could have been sent to President Obama’s desk but for the obduracy of the nativist right in the House and Mr. Boehner’s unwillingness to call a vote.

What would have happened if reform had passed? It was the best chance in a generation to modernize a collapsed immigration system, to put the country’s future on a sounder footing, to finally resolve the status of 11 million people whose potential as taxpaying citizens is bottled up by fear and hopelessness. It would have been a boon for the economy, and for Mr. Boehner’s party. It would have averted Mr. Obama’s controversial executive actions on immigration, which he took as a last resort in the face of congressional abdication.

Of course, the newspaper run by a shady Mexican billionaire calls patriots who oppose the massive surge of lawbreakers clambering over our border “nativist” and “toddlers” who are just throwing a temper tantrum as they stand in the way of history.

Also note how the Times excuses President Obama’s clearly unconstitutional executive order on amnesty as a “last resort” in the face of intolerance.obama-boehner-shake-AP

It’s easy to dismiss the arguments put forward by Carlos Slim’s paper of record.  But immigration patriots should be aware the establishment very much wants amnesty and now that John Boehner, a card-carrying member of that establishment, no longer has to worry about actual voters, there is a chance he uses his final days to ram through amnesty.

    A Country Founded by Geniuses but Run by Idiots!

    If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but

    not for entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might

    live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or

    to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might

    live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a

    check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video, but not

    to vote for who runs the government — you might live in a nation that

    was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from

    owning gun magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty

    F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a

    nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If, in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but

    not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make

    you fat — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is

    run by idiots.

    If an 80-year-old woman or a three-year-old girl who is confined to a

    wheelchair can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman

    in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head

    searched — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but

    is run by idiots.

    If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions

    of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a

    nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his

    teacher is “cute,” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class

    in grade school is perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation

    that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more

    government regulation and intrusion, while not working is rewarded with

    Food Stamps, WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free

    cell phones — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

    but is run by idiots.

    If the government’s plan for getting people back to work is to

    provide incentives for not working, by granting 99 weeks of unemployment

    checks, without any requirement to prove that gainful employment was

    diligently sought, but couldn’t be found — you might live in a nation

    that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest

    big-screen TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a

    wall-sized do-it-all plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government

    forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage — you might live in a

    nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself

    makes you more “safe” according to the government — you might live in a

    nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If the media panders to your openly socialist leader while the IRS targets groups with dissenting views— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If your government ‘cracks down’ on legal gun sales to law abiding citizens while secretly supplying illegal guns to Mexican drug cartels— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    If your local government (Chicago) outlawed gun ownership for ‘the safety of its citizens’ and now boasts the worst murder rate in the country — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

    What a country!

    How about we give God a reason to continue blessing America?

  2. He can try but, with the 2016 election coming up and many in Congress running for re-election; I think he’ll have a hard time ramming it through. And it will be because of the Trump effect.

    He’s a whiney 5-year-old girl who is pissed off that we really don’t like him anymore because he’s a RINO.
    He’ll do whatever he can to spit in the faces of those who are ECSTATIC that he’s leaving. Why is he STILL THERE??? GO AWAY NOW. He should have NO further authority to do ANYTHING. He’s already screwed us over enough.

  5. sherri palmer says

    I sure hope you are right! I also feel that anyone give amnesty while Obama is in office should have ti taken away and still deport them
