Obama's Executive Immigration Order was a brilliant move on his part. Politically, that is. Obama needed to cater to the radical anti-border crowd, but he also needed to limit the legal challenges that would have mounted from all directions with a blanket amnesty.
So what did he do? Nothing. No seriously, Obama didn't really do much of anything on the action front. He basically proclaimed that our government (his government these days) will no longer deport illegal immigrants.
Obama made it sound like he was doing a lot. He made it sound like he was giving the radical amnesty groups what they want. What he gave them is what they already have. A failure to enforce current immigration law.
What's new about that? Obama's government hasn't been enforcing immigration laws for years.
The difference now is, and this is what's really dangerous, Obama is now announcing the fact that his government will ignore our nation's immigration laws.
What makes it so dangerous is that Obama's announcement says to all of our enemies that now is the time to invade our nation's borders. We're no longer talking about innocent women and children riding trains to our borders then crossing with the hopes of gaining access to our welfare system. We're talking about ISIS and other evil groups who want to embed individuals here with the plan of doing harm.
Essentially, our President just made a proclamation that puts American lives, and the security of our nation, directly at risk. Obama said to the world that if they can get across our borders, we will not send them home. We will not enforce our immigration laws.
In my view Obama's Executive Order was less about amnesty and more about open borders. And that's a very bad thing for America.
Now the question is... what will Congress do about Obama's radical and dangerous move to further open up our borders?
PING!
In short, it was what Obola does best; verbal masturbation.
Agree 100%
I suppose we should all be grateful he delivered it in English.

Not quite. He is doing a lot behind the scenes. The most dangerous thing he doing concerns the CARDS.

Obama has sent the U.S. over the cliff into the abyss of Constitutional crisis.
He announced that laws enforcement are relative to the whim of the executive. So lets put the judiciary under the executive branch so the former will properly interpret the latest whim of his majesty during our trials of violation.
He doesn’t have the money to deport more than a tenth of the illegals because the congress won’t pay to enforce the law.
TANSTAAFL, or free laws.
Thanks for the post!
Regarding this part of Mr Odom’s article:
Essentially,our President just made a proclamation that puts American lives,and the security of our nation,directly at risk
My comment to him:
Your next article should lay out the articles of impeachment against 0.
Make it go viral.
In his speech he said that that was the real definition of amnesty.
What he gave them is what they already have. A failure to enforce current immigration law. <<<
EXACTLY!....the laws are clear! and have been for years!.....So are we a nation of laws??
Here is the most dangerous aspect:
Mexico is sliding towards anarchy. You might say, its always been that way, but this is different. Right now in Mexico, the situation is not dissimilar from the one that preceeded Viktor Yanukovych’s ouster in Ukraine. Thousands are in the streets of the capital burning pinatas of the president, who they accuse of covering up a horrific government endorsed murder of 43 students in a small town by drug cartels.
What if Nieto goes the way of Yanukovych? He’s already had the front of his presidential palace burned down by protesters. Let me tell you. ALL OUT DISINTEGRATION and a civil war between the narco gangs.
What do you think follows from that? A TSUNAMI of filthy, diseased, impoverished illegals swarming over the border. I’m talking TENS OF MILLIONS!
Yep. Disgusting isn’t it?
U.S. Const. art. II, § 1 is hereby repealed. I am your Emperor. I shall choose my successor. My word is absolute. And you shall worship me as your god.
Now the question is... what will Congress do about Obama's radical and dangerous move to further open up our borders?On the off chance that was a serious question that you truly can't take a guess at: They will wring hands, gnash Teeth and not do one thing else. It's what they always do: Make noise; avoid action.
Back in 2011,,he flatly stated that he couldnt halt..Deportations...
oh my
I’m getting angrier by the minute.
