are engaged in a society in some ways some of the language on both sides is probably a little over the top. is the republican national committee taking a stand on the lawsuit a weird thing happened in that they filed a lawsuit in congress and then those house speaker said that obama should address the immigration grudges on his own without the need for congressional action and charles krauthammer of the no the conservative columnist called it a flip flop and was ridiculous and in conference when you stand on that which partner on the lawsuit or with the board on the lawsuit and then the follow up to the lawsuit would scrotum i'm a cold in comprehensible. well i think the lawsuit i mean look i think when you are the speaker of the house and recognize that this is a the way our constitution works you may people may not like it but there's a house there's a senate there's a president there's a court and there's checks and balances. as your previous guest talked about when it came to the senate intelligence committee and how they're doing with the cia he said you know they need to respect that the house is the check of the balance

as a reminder to all of us, also a year ago, the chairman of the republican national committee sat on this stage endorsing immigration reform. yet here we are a year later, the senate passed it. it passed it during the naleo conference last year. but the house refused to move immigration reform. the house, controlled by republican leadership, given vicky's comments, what do you think? >> look, without question, how a candidate or a party or an individual who's running for elected office speaks about minorities in the political narrative, the impression given is how you speak about them then translates what will be your policy remedy to those folks? so the republican party has not done a good job on that when it comes to immigration issues. that doesn't mean that hispanics should run away from the republican party. that means we should flood it and change it from within. that's what we're doing. we want to have a conversation within the conservative movement to say, hey, immigration is positive for america. america was built on the waves of poor immigrants who created new wealth, new o
