illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children and have since led law-abiding lives AND ARE OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE.
WTF gives Obama this authority?
Talk about vote buying. Can you imagine the outcry had a GOP’er done something like this? These people have no shame.
Yet one more way to harm this country. We have plenty of young citizens unable to find jobs.
Can they vote?
Think about this...if Obama is willing to give illegals immunity, what type of pardons will he issue when he looses the election? Can we count on Barack Hussein Obama to allow the prisons to be emptied during his lame duck session like Saddam Hussein did in Iraq? Will we see all of the minor felons come cascading out of our prisons so that he can equalize the social “injustice” of the past?
Just asking.
And what future president is gonna have the guts to overturn this EO????????????

There he goes again. The great pander out pandering again. This guy is the ultimate idiot our country has ever seen in office. We need to defeat him in November.
And I agree - the FOOL Rubio caused this pander. Republicans should know by now you can never out-pander a liberal democrat. Obama would've likely been able to skate thru the election by offering nothing more than vague promises to the latino community.
Report: Deportations hit record number

The Obama administration deported nearly 400,000 people last year – a record – with the number driven up by those tossed out for traffic violations and drunken driving, according to a report on Friday.
The focus on ousting those with relatively minor offenses raises questions about whether the administration has lived up to its promise to focus on deporting the most dangerous offenders, the Associated Press says.
During the fiscal year that ended in Sept. 30, 393,000 people were deported, and half of those were considered criminals. Of the criminal deportations, 7 percent were based on traffic violations, 23 percent were drug violations and 14 percent were drunken driving violations, according to an analysis by the AP.

I take these grants of rights to illegals as evidence that the government doesn’t give a damn about the people who are here legally. All citizens and legal aliens in this country have to shoulder the costs of the people who come here illegally.
“illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children and have since led law-abiding lives”
As children they did not commit a crime and as deportee they may not be able to function in the land of their parents. I’m sure Obama is doing it for the election as he is doing it at a late hour of his first term. I understood what Rick Perry meant “have “no heart”. I think the blame lies with government not controlling borders an immigration after amnesty in the 80’s. If you don’t enforce the laws for 30 years what can be expected.
Obummer just lost the election on this one. He may have bought a few votes, arguable ones he already has, but he further alienated 70% of the electorate.
In order to issue work permits, the applications, background checks, etc, etc must be done by bureaucrats. Time and money must be allocated for this purpose to set up a whole new gov’t organization for this purpose. These funds must be allocated by the house. All funding must originate in the House of Representatives. Let them pass a law that no money can be spent for this purpose from existing funds.
Secret report: Catch and release for low-priority illegals proposed
Border agency’s draft policy includes ‘prosecutorial discretion’
U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the agency charged with guarding the U.S. borders, has written a secret draft policy that would let its agents catch and release low-priority illegal immigrants rather than bring them in for processing and prosecution.
The policy was detailed in an internal memo obtained by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith and reviewed by The Washington Times, which confirmed the document.
According to the memo, the draft policy “provides circumstances when to pursue enforcement actions … and includes detailed discussion of several factors CBP personnel should consider when exercising discretion.”
Opponents say it amounts to another “backdoor amnesty” for illegal immigrants
“Rather than allow Border Patrol agents to do their job, the Obama administration instead would like them to roll out the welcome mat for illegal immigrants,” Mr. Smith said. “This ‘catch and release’ policy undermines border security, our immigration system, and CBP’s mission.”
President Obama has called for a broad immigration bill that would legalize most illegal immigrants

“It is never a good idea to send the message, as the political class now does consistently, that there are no democratic means by which the people can restrain their rulers. As the (Democratic) pollster Pat Caddell pointed out, the logic of that is `pre-revolutionary.’”

Where is the GOP?
” ... they (conservatives) fulfill the same function in the system as the first-year boys at wintry English boarding schools who for a tuppenceha’penny would agree to go and take the chill of the toilet seat in the unheated lavatories until the prefects were ready to stroll in and assume their rightful place. Republicans have gotten good at keeping the seat warm.” Ibid
Where is your god, Rombots? Here’s his issue.
Most of these illegals probably reside in California, so I really don’t think it will affect the election, and once the word gets out, this will further motivate the voters on the right to come out and vote Obama out of office.
THEY NEED TO DEPORT O BACK TO KENYA !
It sounds as if this was specifically written to cover OBAMA himself!
He must be getting concerned that Sherriff Joe's investigation into his counterfeit birth certificate is starting to get some serious attention.
