So does that mean they'll also start enforcing the law after this 'deal'?

Didn't think so.

No one had anything against hardworking immigrants coming to this country for a better life. It's the lawlessness and looking the other way that pisses people off.

Decide how many green cards or visas we need to issue and do it. Then enforce the law.

You will still have just as many people who will see an advantage to not becoming legal for various reasons - taxes, criminal record, etc. Without enforcing the law we're right back to where we started in a few years.

All you have to do is look at the immigration "reforms" that we have had in the past and how they have resulted in even more illegal immigration. You have to know that this is just an open invitation for another influx of poor uneducated latinos that can't find work in their own country. Obama has already gotten what he wanted which was the hispanic vote so don't count on him to work too hard on immigration.

The Democrats (and probably Latino leaders) are laughing at Boehner. Obama is "confident" too Mr. Speaker. Confident you will give more than you get, just like always. Now after losing the Hispanic vote, they want to back up and just do amnesty too.

Don't want "a deal." I want to see Boehner go away and a TRUE Conservative elected Speaker! Then, start defunding programs and agencies. Don't make me take the name of our Lord in vain.... Wake up you RINO's in the House and grow a set!

Boehner didn't get us OH so time to move on to a new speaker and I agree with you that we need a true conservative next time. I propose Ryan!

I guess none of these idiots listened to Rush yesterday. Latino support for dems has nothing to do with immigration reform but the welfare plantation.The left realized many years ago they couldn't keep winning elections with just blacks ,so they had to import voters.
Sealing the border is a pipe dream as is paying back taxes and fines.

Blacks and hispanics know the dems are true believers in give away programs,they're not going to vote for a switching RINO.

Obama won because white people didn't have the stones to fire a black guy.They'd rather see the country go bankrupt than be called a racist or face riots.

There's no need to cave to the left,their support is in urban areas that are running out of money.Time is on our side as far as the roof caving in on these people.

People are going to start flocking to Rubio to gain latino support.Has Allen West gotten us more black votes?

Here's your "deal": enforce the law.

What #4 said. John Boehner has GOT to GO! There HAS to be a Republican-Conservative who can be Speaker and represent US, and NOT the demonrats..He and Mitch McConnell and so many other weak-kneed-republicans have got to be replaced with Conservatives more concerned about this Country than playing golf with obama! BTW, when they tried to stop Boehner from smoking cigars in his office, he fought like a lion because THAT was important to him. Conservative principles, not so much. Good Grief!

Third party.

Boehner can reach a deal as long as he kisses Obama'z behind.

Immigration reform will turn CO, AZ, FL, and NV permanently blue. You don't have to worry about future elections at that point, Boehner because you, your party, and the country are finished at that point. If you want to cave on something, make it taxes. Let them soak the rich. Let them own a new depression. Lets see how turnout is in 2014. Show some damn wisdom, FOOL!

No deal!

It depends upon how "comprehensive immigration reform" is defined. If the wimpy Republicans go along with a liberal Democrat written "path to citizenship" amnesty for 12-20 million illegal aliens that will eventually hand the liberal Democrats many millions of new ethnic voters the Republicans will be committing long-term political suicide. Only a stupid political party would do that.

There is only one reason that the liberal Democrats want such an amnesty, to eventually grant US voting rights to as many legalized aliens as possible. The highly partisan liberal Democrats would not be doing that if they ever thought that more then a very small percentage of those prospective new voters would ever have an epiphany and vote for conservative Republicans. That is only common sense.

Most illegal aliens are poor people who have no alternative now but to work for relatively low wages in this country. Once legalized under liberal Democrat amnesty programs they will become eligible for all forms of public assistance just like everybody else in the country. Human nature dictates that a huge number of them would apply for public assistance and will vote for the political party that offers them the most new rights, and public benefits and services. That's also just common sense.

While the liberal Democrats are now calling for a massive amnesty, there is no sign that they intend to stop obstructing, opposing, and sabotaging effective immigration law enforcement measures, so you have to figure that any amnesty they pass will encourage more mass uncontrolled illegal immigration.

An egotistical, lazy, sorry excuse for a man. Step down, John, for the good of the country.

John, if your going to cave on everything, what's the point in voting for you in the first place?
