House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said Tuesday he’s spent more time than anybody else in working to fix the country’s broken immigration system.

“Nobody has spent more time trying to fix a broken immigration system than I have,” he told reporters.

A House Democratic leadership aide quickly fired back: “The proof is the pudding. Speaker Boehner has been spending too much time catering to his Tea Party extremists in order to save his Speakership and too little time cooking up solutions to the challenges we face as a country. Tea time is over.”
