Obama using a 'back door' amnesty for illegals?

In a secretive process, immigration judges are dismissing large numbers of deportation complaints against illegal immigrants, lending credence to claims that the Obama administration is using immigration courts to achieve a "back door amnesty" for illegals.

What's it take for an immigration judge to dismiss a deportation case against an illegal immigrant who has been in the country a few years? Apparently, only that the person has stayed out of trouble with the law (although being in the country illegally doesn't qualify as an offense.)

News about the dismissals -- in Houston, Dallas, Miami and other major cities -- was reported by the Houston Chronicle yesterday. In its article, "Immigration cases tossed by the hundreds," the paper reported:

In the month after Homeland Security officials started a review of Houston's immigration court docket, immigration judges dismissed more than 200 cases, an increase of more than 700 percent from the prior month, new data shows.

The number of dismissals in Houston courts reached 217 in August - up from just 27 in July, according to data from the Executive Office for Immigration Review, which administers the nation's immigration court system.

In September, judges dismissed 174 pending cases - the vast majority involving immigrants who already were out on bond and had cases pending on Houston's crowded downtown court docket, where hearings are now being scheduled into 2012. Roughly 45 percent of the 350 cases decided in that court in September resulted in dismissals, the records show.

The rage and disgust that is on a high simmer will boil over if the Imam commits this treason against We The People. 300 million will be digging his dirt to get him impeached ASAP.

Hey.....how else is he going to get anyone to vote for the Democrats and for him? They are running from them by the thousands. People don’t like being associated with a looser.

You think it's bad now, just wait until our system is revamped and elects judges who appoint legislatures from the bench.

We are heading that direction presently.

The messiah wouldn't stand for impeachment, there would be martial law/civil war before that happened.

If illegal aliens can get away with ignoring all the immigration laws, then taxpayers should just ignore the tax laws.

Always the nameless ‘they’ or ‘the Department of ...’ It is straight out of Kafka. When is someone going to “man up” or ‘grow some cajones” and NAME SOME ACTUAL NAMES! Who is ordering these policies? Even if it comes from the very top, there has to be a chain of command and someone has to say “dismiss THIS case and THAT case.” Who is it? Why does nobody know? What about organizations like Judicial Watch, or is this outside their area of interest?

Thank You! My thoughts as well, and one I constantly ask the reporters. These judges, like lenient parole board members, get away with this crap because they work in the shadows. Maybe it is because of fear of litigation, but rarely have I seen any other those peoples' names mentioned.

It is about time they are.

This is zeros MO.

NO matter what the issue immigration, healthcare, the oil spill, you name it,if zero cant get his way in the courts or through the law he takes matters into his own hands. He plays fast and loose with the law and we see the result.

The dear leader has no respect for the country its laws or its people.
