Repug Hispanic Reachout: THE ENDLESS SEARCH FOR JOHN BOEHNER'S BALLS

[boutons_deux]

They're still buried in a Mason jar somewhere on the continent of North America, and only Eric Cantor has the map.

Boehner repeated his long standing opposition to the Senate-passed immigration bill and his pledge the House would never vote on it, but he went a step further, drawing a bright line: "I'll make clear we have no intention ever of going to conference on the Senate bill." Last week the third ranking House Republican, GOP Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-California, told immigration reform advocates that there wasn't enough time left this year for the House to take up immigration reform. The House is in session 15 days between now and the end of the year.

So that's it. Thank you all for playing, and for being such incredible suckers, all you people who lined up after the last presidential election and predicted that the Republican party would have to moderate its stand on immigration or else face a demographic cataclysm over the next half-century.

Here is the thing. Modern conservatism cannot exist without a strain of outright bigotry in its general politics, and the modern Republican party cannot exist without modern conservatism, so there we are. Absent that dwindling, but noisy, remnant of race-baiters in the party's base -- a group of people a more sensible party would have told to piss up a rope decades ago -- modern conservatism, and the Republican party that is its vehicle, would dry up and blow away on a gentle breeze. They can no more move on this issue than they can tap-dance on the moon.

If you want further evidence, consult the recent impotent blathering from the only guy in the party who sings in a more pleasant soprano than the Speaker -- obvious anagram Reince Priebus, the ular head of the Republican party.
