Anything you give the little mouse is going to lead to a newer and bigger request. That is what it must feel like to Speaker of the House BOEHNER with his nativist wing of his party.

If you give them the vote for quicker deportation of children. they will demand a vote to deport all DREAMers who have permission to work in the United States legally700.000. And if you give them a vote on deporting DREAMers. they will ask for a hearing on amending the Constitution to eliminate birthright citizenship. That is what the mouse will do. He will change the Constitution of the United States.

If you give a mouse a cookie. he is going to want some milk. Mr.
