After Republicans blew out Democrats at the midterms, much was made of what lunch between the two political parties would be like the following Friday. Immigration reform being the hot button issue, Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) was reportedly laying out the Republican arguments when President Obama grew tired of it. The president has said time and again that he’s going to take executive action on immigration. An aide familiar with the luncheon said that tensions were raised between Obama and Vice President Joe Biden when the latter exhibited some interest in letting Boehner say more. “The aide said at one point as House Speaker John Boehner was making an argument on immigration, Obama responded that his patience was running out and Vice President Joe Biden interrupted to ask how long Republicans needed. Obama angrily cut Biden off,” the Associated Press reported.
