Polls Show Hostility Toward Obama’s Work Permits For Illegals
dailycaller ^ | 12:49 PM 11/13/2014 | Neil Munro

Democrats and advocates for more immigration are cheering President Barack Obama’s plan to unilaterally grant work permits to many illegal immigrants, even though numerous polls show overwhelming public hostility to plans that favor illegals over Americans.

“If the president takes his action on the amnesty, he will make it easier for the Republicans to win in 2016,” said Kellyanne Conway, who recently polled 2014 voters about their attitudes toward immigration. “The angriest person should be Hillary Clinton,” Conway added.

“I think the numbers in this are well in the 60s [percent] against him. … This could break the back of the Democratic Party,” said Pat Caddell, a former pollster for President Jimmy Carter who is sharply critical of both parties’ support for high levels of immigration.

“This is a really, really bad move,” said Whit Ayres, founder of North Star Opinion Research, which polls for GOP candidates. In June 2013, Ayres polled the public about immigration for Mark Zuckerberg, the owner of Facebook. Asked by TheDC if there’s any polling evidence that an Oval Office amnesty would not backfire on Obama, Ayres responded “not that I’ve seen.”

The risk to Obama and the Democrats is made worse given that Obama just lost an election. “It’s going to come across as an illegitimate and crassly political move by a desperate president,” Ayres told MNSBC.

Heard George Will earlier on Special Report with Bret Baer, quote figure of 71% of Hispanics in this country illegally are employed!

Black teens' unemployment is in the range of 25-40% and black adults range around 17-20%, so we "need more illegal labor" because?????

That expanded work permit business has been going on for more than ten years.

House Committee Votes to Admit More STEM Workers than the Supply of Them
The Center for Immigration Studies ^ | July 1, 2013 | David North

"The House of Representatives Judiciary Committee voted last week to admit more high-tech foreign workers in some categories than the annual supply of them.

In its eagerness to meet the wishes of the high tech industry — and steal jobs from qualified American workers — the Republican majority on the committee,...

Blacks are lazy? Don’t want to work because it interferes with their sex lives?
Remember when they picked cotton? I give up!

Doesn't Obama realize that if he dares to sign such a traitorous order on illegal immigration soon after the 2014 midterm elections as he said he would, his life and the lives of his wife and two daughters will be miserable the rest of their lives, because Americans will condemn,jeer, and savagely boo Obama for such traitorous action the rest of his life wherever he goes, such as visiting tv talk shows like the Tonight Show and attending popular sporting events?

What astonishes me is that Obama is thumbing his nose at the Blacks with all of his talk about amnesty and work permits.

Where’s the Ferguson type outrage???

I've just relocated to rural W. TN, and everywhere I look I see whites "gaming the system", while the hardest worker I know is a black man who has been helping me keep my autos repaired.

Having grown up in this part of the country, and having worked in the cotton fields with black workers (almost 40 years ago), I understand why blacks have this reputation, but it's due to lack of education and opportunity, and not due to intrinsic laziness.

Probably not. The spelling is different: William Ayers.

Which is probably why he signed an EO giving former presidents lifetime Secret Service.
