Boehner: Obama ‘Kept Poisoning the Well’ on Immigration Reform

‘Reforming our immigration system, securing our borders, would be good for America’

BASH: "You made pretty clear that, in your heart of hearts, you wanted to get immigration reform done. That has to be a regret, that that didn't happen." 
BOEHNER: "Well, it is, because reforming our immigration system, securing our borders would be good for America. But, unfortunately, the president just kept poisoning the well, poisoning the well, to the point where it was impossible to put it on the floor of the House."
BASH: "But why was it the president, and not the right flank of your own caucus?" 
BOEHNER: "Well, probably some blame there as well, but we could have dealt with that."
