It is appalling to me ...

.
... that Boehner has any legitimacy left at all:

we’ll find out just how far the House is willing to go down this road in the name of getting their names on something with the word immigration on it. But it’s going to start yet another revolt among the conservative base if something like the DREAM Act makes it’s way through, and this one may start a fire too big for Boehner to put out.

John Boehner has done nothing, nothing to please conservatives; why should he start now?
