USAToday: President Obama says he hasn't given up on an immigration bill, and will push it after the government shutdown and debt ceiling disputes are resolved.And it would appear that the surrendering Republican Party leadership is suiting up to proceed on their way to permanent minority status under one-party rule.
"Once that's done — you know, the day after — I'm going to be pushing (Congress) to say, call a vote on immigration reform," Obama told the Los Angeles affiliate of Univision, the Spanish language television network.
Obama's immigration hopes figure to continue hitting opposition in the Republican-run House, where members describe a proposed path to citizenship as amnesty for lawbreakers.
