Obama May Bypass Congress to Grant Refugee Status for Hondurans
Breitbart ^ | 7/24/14 | Dan Riehl

Posted on 07/25/2014 9:05:08 AM PDT by BlatherNaut

The Obama administration is considering a move that, according to Mark Krikorian, the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, "would increase, not stem, the flood of migrants from Central America trying to get into the United States". “It’s clearly a bad idea,” Mr. Krikorian said. “Orders of magnitude more people will apply for refugee status if they can just do it from their home countries.” He added that the proposal would allow people to claim to be refugees from their countries with “nothing more than a bus ride to the consulate. We’re talking about, down the road, an enormous additional flow of people from those countries.” The move may also fly in the face of the traditional legal definition of precisely who qualifies as a refugee. The preliminary plan could create a thorny challenge for the administration because the definition of a refugee is legally specific, and children fleeing street gangs could have a hard time qualifying. In effect, the plan would establiish a screening center in Honduras and allow for the direct transport of individuals into the U.S. if it were determined they qualified for refugee status.

No more middle men (coyotes) under this plan. The "refugees" (AKA recruits for the foreign invasion) will be granted "refuge" status before they even leave home and then flown to the U.S. on the U.S. taxpayers' dime.

Obama is working hard to make the elections of 2014 and 2016 irrelevant. He is burying the US in a human wave of invaders led by a US government that has turned against its own country.

Limbaugh is talking about this now. “Refugee” is the loophole.

Congress needs to do more than file a law suit at this point. Impeach that SOB. If you fail, do it again, and again and again.

Is Congress going to stand up to Obama? They have to know the majority of Americans are against this idea.

Why not just grant it to the world. Jesus.

When you cheapen the price of citizenship, you degrade the citizen and debase the citizenry.

I just can’t wait for the next 2 years. This guy is just one big ‘wtf’ moment after another.

The ONLY way to endrun this would be to appeal to the current minority citizens with a campaign showing how this is going to directly affect THEM. If we cannot get 67 senators on board to toss this creature out, it is lost. Forget suits, elections and the like. No time for that. This guy has got to go pronto. If Biden opens his mouth in support of this illegal move, he can be a co respondent in the impeachment.

I am beyond upset about his. I cannot believe there is not out right fury in the country about this crap. Of course, the media will do nothing to inflame anyone against the IWON. I wonder how soon he will claim refugee status too? This guy was not a US citizen by birth, arrival or witch doctor blessing.

Perfect.

Why not let the entire world claim “refugee” status?

Boehner....Boehner?

The Chamber of Commerce members need to feel the pain on this.
