1. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SPEAKER PELOSI AND A SPEAKER BOEHNER ON IMMIGRATION?

After a year of blocking legislation to improve our immigration policies, Speaker Boehner (R-Ohio) needs to answer to the public why he is acting exactly as Speaker Pelosi (D-Calif.) did.

2. Webcast at 3:30 p.m. EST tomorrow (Thursday) to discuss the Boehner Problem and our effort to wake up a drowsy, do-nothing U.S. House

4. Pres. Obama's Jobs & Immigration Disconnect in State of Union Address

What really galled me was Pres. Obama bragging about more than 3 million U.S. jobs created during the last 22 months.

That could have been good news for unemployed Americans.

But during that same period, the Obama Administration issued more than 3 million work visas to new immigrants and other foreign workers (more than half of them permanent).

What is the point of all that talk in the speech about creating jobs when the federal government is importing so many new workers?

But on our TV screens tonight, the Culprit in Chief in giving away the jobs to foreign workers was not the Commander in Chief giving the speech. Rather, it was the Speaker of the House sitting behind him.

Compared to the heavy-metal terror I used to feel listening to Pres. Bush's State of the Union immigration appeals, Pres. Obama's obligatory immigration section tonight was easy-listening music. The verses and chorus pushing for amnesties for illegal aliens were nearly identical to last year's speech and just didn't sound like he had a thought in the world that any of it could happen.

That is a tribute to the relentless efforts of all of you.
