Election '12: In his most brazen act of pandering to date, President Obama has dangled de facto amnesty to 800,000 illegal immigrants in a shameless bid to win Latino votes. This is pure banana-republic electoral politics.
There's zero doubt Obama's Friday order to hand work permits to hundreds of thousands of illegals who claim they were brought here as children is merely an embattled and unpopular president's bid to gain an electoral edge.
Politics trump all other factors that a responsible president would consider, such as the wisdom of dumping nearly a million new job seekers onto the market to compete for jobs with America's 26 million unemployed at a time of sky-high unemployment.
[snip] Obama has told his supporters in the past that he couldn't take such a brazen step, knowing that its legality and clear usurpation of congressional authority would be questioned.
[snip This is no different from banana-republic politicos buying votes for bags of beans. Obama's gambit is in fact straight from Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, who, facing a tight recall referendum in 2004, handed citizenship to 2 million illegal immigrants in Venezuela to secure votes, and with Jimmy Carter's help, won.
It's also been done in that other banana-republic, California, where in 2003, Democratic Gov. Gray Davis offered drivers licenses to millions of illegals to secure Latino votes for his own recall referendum. It maddened California's voters and Davis was booted. ]

Mr. RomneyCARE has said yesterday that he agrees
with Obama on this. As usual, the RINO Romney
has the Tyrant’s ‘back’.
No high ranking Republican is making strong criticisms because they don't want to alienate the Hispanic vote. POS Obama and his cronies know this. Romney said something inane and same for the other. McCaine said some nonsense and same for Miss Lindsey Graham
San Francisco Chronicle - 3 hours agoMitt Romney refused to say Sunday whether he would overturn President Obama's new policy allowing some young illegal immigrants to stay ...
Pandering - next Obama and Putin will work out a scam where he ‘stands up to Putin’ and plays the big man... Independents will fall for it... the MSM won’t notice it’s a scam ...
How in the hell are these illegal “children” going to PROVE when they were brought over?
I guess you simply ask them or their parents/parent/uncle/aunt/friends etc... and that’s all that is needed.
Kind of like voting without an ID. You have to believe what they tell you; and of course, we know these law abiding illegals tell the truth every time don’t we?
All of you Romneybots got what you ordered....a flim-flam man.
Everyone knew his record and even Jim Robinson tried his best to defeat him in the primary by censoring this website of pro-romney posts.
We have been warned as to what a “change artist” he is and now he clearly shows his colors by not taking a stand of this horrible grab of power by the current dictator in power and ruler of all.
The future has been exposed and Romney is clearly one of the enemy too.
It's 10 million, easy.
When the illegal alien children are given green cards (lawful permanent residency), they can then sponsor family members to live in the U.S. with them.
So a couple million illegal aliens (remember, we're talking adults up to 30 now) will be able to sponsor on average 3 - 4 more people.
10 million, easy. And they all get special privileges under Affirmative Action, since they're "victims" of whitey.
This is why I have warned for years... I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR THAT BABY KILLING, AMNESTY LOVING LIAR romney.

The real issue here is how Congress (remember THOSE guys?)sit around like a crowd of atrophied dummies while this bounder does ‘fast and dirty’ with the rules!
We Republicans do not have a party.
We have a group of cowards.
I believe this election will be my last as a Republican.
School records would do it. However, nobody will ask them to prove anything.
The Emperor is the one who is naked.

Haven’t you learned anything about the credibility of our public schools (socialist indoctrination centers)?
An Executive Order is NOT a Law. They just need to refuse to follow it. He can’t do anything about it if they do
I’m not sure I understand you. :)
