Immigration

Today, Speaker of the House John Boehner said that he will not allow formal compromise talks to take place between the House and the Senate about the Senate-passed immigration bill, which would create a path to citizenship for over 10 million illegal immigrants, while at the same time tighten border security. While I understand the House Republicans' desire to create their own, streamlined, bill, I wish that they would at least talk once with the Senate to see if they could come up with a compromise. Illegal immigration is a huge issue in this country, and I do not understand how the same House that voted and re-voted more than 30 times on Obamacare is not willing to schedule any more votes on immigration.
Also, I heard a pro-path-to-citizenship argument that has probably been around for a while, but I heard for the first time last week that I wish Congresspersons would hear: Superman, one of the greatest American superheroes, is technically an illegal alien, with heavy emphasis on alien. Would you rather deport Superman for being here illegally, or would you try to find a way for him to stay here? This current House has made clear that, given the Superman scenario, they would rather deport Superman than vote again on the issue of illegal immigration.
