Article VI, the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution:

“This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States
which shall be made in Pursuance thereof,
and all Treaties made, or which shall be made,
under the Authority of the United States,
shall be the supreme Law of the Land; . . .

Been saying this all along - any “comprehensive” bill is a scam - no matter what they put in it, the administration will only enforce the parts they like. This needs to be one step at time. First step - secure the borders.

So far any amnesty I see will legalize 12-30 million illegal aliens while new provisions for enforcing the borders and visas will never be implemented. Janet Napolitano has just admitted this. Only idiots believe the Obama regime will enforce any new immigration laws that come with a Marco Rubio type amnesty

“Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano declared that she, President Barack Obama and other political officials at the top of this administration have the authority to decide which laws to enforce, and which ones to ignore. “

Sub-Driver, do you think people understand how utterly terrifying those words are?? Mike Chertoff felt the same way, but at least the Bush Administration had the good sense to lie about it!

PS. THEY WILL FEEL THE SAME WAY AFTER AMNESTY!! WAKE UP AMERICA, THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE.

This is the perfect time to kill amnesty, but nary a peep from the Republican leadership.

The party must be euthanized.

"Right there, she should be removed from office."

Agreed, they have taken an oath to uphold the law.

The only time they have the right to decide to ignore a law is

In her response to those remarks from Sessions, Napolitano said she believes she and other political officials have the authority to tell law enforcement agents which laws to enforce and which ones to ignore.

That’s not what the Democrats thought back when Nixon was impounding funds in 1972 an effort to reduce government spending. They wanted to impeach him then for failing to spend money as passed in the federal budget.

“Why haven’t these communists been dragged out of the White House and put on trail? “

Because the ‘opposition’, the power of the GOP (especially those writting S744 (AMNESTY), FEELS THE SAME WAY!!!!!!

I know no one wants to believe it, but there it is!

THEY can pick and choose which law(s) to enforce.

Can I pick and choose which office I want my paid taxes to go to, too?

Could there be a check box on my tax form, No funding EPA, Education, etc etc?

“! Impeach the corrupt bitch! Napolitano, too.”

When’s the last time you heard anyone of any power person in the GOP object to the way OBAMA/Uncle Janet enforces/doesn’t enforce our laws???

It takes an oppostion party to pull of an impeachment.
WE DON’T HAVE ONE!

Sessions should have shot back “care to tell me where you found that in the Constitution?” When she couldn’t he should have said further “You’re an embarrassment to public officials everywhere, You need to resign here and now.”

This is why this immigration law should NOT be passed. Border security will be ignored as amnesty is granted.

Why does Marco Rubio not understand this?

Treason;

1.
the offense of acting to overthrow one's government or to harm or kill its sovereign.

2.
a violation of allegiance to one's sovereign or to one's state.

3.
the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.

I would say she's done at least 2 of those - and not in the pot........

I don’t even know what to say anymore.

Destroyed from within. Large segments of American society
unaware,coarsened and completely unable to understand what
made this country great and why its all slipping away.

Wonder when Bozo Boehner and Meaningless McConnell will issue a statement of condemnation on this and demand resignation?
