WASHINGTON (AP) - Caught between competing political demands over immigration, President Barack Obama will now wait until after the November election to take executive action that could shield millions of immigrants from deportation and ignite a clash over the extent of his presidential authority.

Obama's decision abandons a pledge he made June 30 to act quickly after summer's end, and it prompted an immediate and furious backlash from immigration advocates. But in the past several weeks, the pressure for swift measures from pro-immigration groups ran up against fears from Democrats that acting now would energize Republican opposition against vulnerable Senate Democrats

Two White House officials said Obama concluded that circumventing Congress through executive actions on immigration during the campaign would politicize the issue and hurt future efforts to pass a broad overhaul. They said he fully intends to act before the end of the year.

As predicted. Going to be a fascinating lame duck session in Congress also.

As if obeisance of the law was a ‘competing political interest’.

So few Americans have a clue as to the evil in Washington....

Read the Congressional Record of 1963....communist goals are clearly outlined, and they have done a terrific job of infiltrating the media, the schools and destroying the family.

If it is true that more than 70% are against this AMNESTY business, how Obama can get a pass even after November, with even fewer Democrats in office, I’m sure I don’t know.

A law broken by a president and rebuilt to suit himself can not be enforced because he has no legislative authority. What he constructs from the law he broke is not law, but more of an art project using crayons and canvas, but it is no law.

He is simply forcing his own impeachment and removal, in favor of golf. He sees how well things worked out for Bubba Clinton and is unafraid. He sees that there are no real consequences, no real price to pay, but many millions to be made and million dollar homes to enjoy. I think he’s done and beyond redemption.

McPain to GOP: If You Want to Beat Hillary, Pass Immigration Reform ...

Obama renegging on his promise to illegals? (cackle) The stupid just found out voters would have a big say in that. The ding-a-ling is trying to save his ***......and the ***** of desperate Dummycrats.

Lets not forget: then-Sen Hillary--the 2008 presidential candidate---was
one of the first to call for licenses for illegals---alongside "crotch king"
--- then-Gov Eliot Spitzer.

Oh, I almost forgot--Hillary lost the primary (cackle).

=====================================================

Boobamba's Famous Last Words: "If Congress will not do their job, at least we can do ours," noting he had a phone and a pen for the job.

(Voters told Obama where he can stick that phone and pen).

==========================================

Vote-crazed Obama bas been reduced to being a Third World flunky.....setting up the USA big time.....doing the bidding of the barbarians in exchange for votes.

Obama's lips are pressed firmly on the Turd World behind. Money is changing hands sub rosa....foreign aid, extortion, kickbacks, money-laundering are in the mix.

Obama's actions speak louder than words----the wholesale collusion and conspiring w/ the Turd World to facilitate the overthrow of the US govt:

<><>sending them our tax dollars and resources to help violate our borders,
<><>chartering buses and planes to dump them on unsuspecting towns,
<><> secret WH meetings to get more new Democrat voters across the border,
<><> registering the multiple identities w/ the DNC,
<><> giving barbarians free rides on the US gravy train (in exchange for votes).

==============================================

Taxpayers demand the FBI uncover the scope and dimension these illegals present to US ntl security, and implement US laws accordingly.

<><><>the number of falsified documents on the persons of illegals,

<><><>the number of identities illegals are using;

<><><> the number of US govt checks they are cashing;

<><><> the list of memberships in violent latino groups advocating the overthrow of the US govt

<><><> the number of stolen Social Security numbers on their persons,

<><><> whether bribes were paid to get across the order,

<><><> whether illegals are paid agents of foreign governments.

=====================================================

Taxpayers are urged to act now.

WH factotums said this after swilling tequila shots to wash down the valium.....barricading the door as Gutierrez banged on it w/ a stale taco.

“Never thought we’d have a Prez sleazier than Clinton. But we do now.”

“Prez sleazier than Clinton”? Obama? First, they are both
three flights below the sewer. The difference is that
you can prove Clinton actually exists.
No one really knows who the Obama is.

This map from NumbersUSA uses red 'warning' triangles for existing shelters
yellow map pins for proposed new shelters, and blue push-pins to show where
communities have beaten back federal government plans to open new facilities

Great opportunity for the GOP to build a campaign around “last chance to stop amnesty”. Unlikely they will, though, that’d motivate too many Americans to go to the polls, and winning national elections isn’t part of the party’s culture.

Very predictable. I'm sure this polling had nothing to do with Obama's decision:

America Disagrees with You, Mr. President

The question now is, how many of these disgusted illegal immigration supporters are now going to boycott the polls in November? I'm sure there will be more than a few who now won't show up to vote (legally or otherwise) for the democrats.

Add to that, the number of independents that can see right through this bald-faced scheme to wait until after the election to grant amnesty -- they too won't be voting for democrats.

But that's the no-win situation that the smartest president in history got himself into -- anger American citizen voters with decreed amnesty, or anger a bunch of illegals who can't vote (legally anyway) to whom he made promises.

Wow. Just how many votes did the democrats lose today?

And opposing what the big-government/big-corporate crony-fascist complex wants is against their religion.

Lame duck Democrat Senators are more dangerous than falling into a nest of rattlesnakes.

Very angry and especially venomous rattlesnakes.
