Passing am "omnibus" bill [a law] which is in excess of a thousand pages is meaningless. We've seen the Champ in action with the disastrous ACA. He [Champ] will pick and choose which parts he wishes enforced and which he does not. Boehner did the right thing. Champ doesn't need the congress. Let it sit.

#2 It'll be back. One of Boehner's leash holders told him they paid for this, and they mean to get it.

#3 Would any of this pi**ing be going on if the Beltway had actually listened to the people and had secured the border ten years ago on a previous round of this subject? I doubt it. They lied then about securing the border, they lie now about securing the border today or tomorrow. It's all within their authority and means to secure. Their inaction says that the Beltway oligarchs are unwavering in their intent to finally kill the last vestiges of the old republic.

#4 The point is, even if you made securing the border a specific requirement before any of the amnesty process could begin, this lawless and unconstitutional regime would just ignore it. Don't play their game and keep pointing out how lawless Obama is

#5 They'll wait until after the primaries, then pass it with lame duck votes.

#6 Amnesty is one thing, citizenship is quite another.

#7 Imagine a world in which in the days after Sept 11, instead of Homeland Security we got a real plan: (1) Seal the borders, reform work permits and immigration so we know who is coming in (2) Build a bunch of nuclear power plants to get us off of oil as fast as possible.

Those two changes would have changed the world for the better.

#8 #7 -- good ideas but they are not on the Obamagenda. It is a big agenda, and we ain't part of it, although we may be forced to pay the bill for it.
