Boehner: Obama ‘Playing with Matches’ on Amnesty, and ‘He’s Going to Burn Himself’
Republican House speaker John Boehner warned President Obama he’s “playing with matches” by pledging an executive amnesty by the end of the year – and that if he keeps it up, “he’s going to burn himself.”
“I’ve made clear to the president that if he acts unilaterally on his own, outside of authority, he will poison the well,” Boehner said in a Thursday press conference. “And there will be no chance for immigration reform moving in this Congress. It’s as simple as that.”
The speaker trotted out the same warning when pressed on whether executive action would be a “catalyst” for congressional action on immigration, as the White House has suggested. “When you play with matches, you take the risk of burning yourself,” he cautioned. “And [President Obama] is going to burn himself if he continues to go down this path.”
What needs to be done is very simple. Get these people and hold their feet to the fire. All too often, they campaign with one promise and dissolve into jello when they are at work. These people work for us - they were hired to represent us in Congress.
Time for them to nut up or shut up...
