GET ANGRY NOW

GET ANGY NOW

President Obama now says he will wait until after the November elections to implement an "executive amnesty" for 11 million illegal aliens, so as not to hurt Democrats' chances this year.


Instead of waiting to be enraged in December, voters, could you please be enraged now? Once the holiday season kicks off, you'll be too busy going to parties and Christmas shopping to notice that you're suddenly living in Mexico.


Getting Obama to postpone a rancid idea isn't something to celebrate. Yay! We did it! We forced him to delay doing something the country doesn't want for SIX WEEKS! Every Republican candidate better be jamming Obama's threat down the throats of their Democratic opponents.


Obama is claiming to have the powers of a dictator. Amnesty was considered by Congress, but -- here's the important thing: It didn't pass. It only passed the Senate, with the votes of all Democrats and 14 not-bright Republicans. After that, widespread public revulsion prevented Marco Rubio's amnesty bill from even being considered in the House.


But according to Obama, the only reason illegals haven't already been given amnesty is that Congress is not "doing its job."


What does Obama imagine Congress' "job" is? Being his errand boys? Their job is to represent their districts. I promise you, House members are doing a better job representing their districts than at least a dozen senators are at representing their states -- or than Obama is doing representing the country. It's called the "People's House" for a reason.


Noticeably, every Republican senator running for re-election this year claims to oppose amnesty -- even the ones who voted for it. (Let's hope they remember how unpopular mass immigration is when it's time to vote, not just when they're running.)


Obama's base isn't even looking for representation. We could have a 1929-level stock market crash, Obama could commit a murder on the White House lawn -- and they would still support the first minority president!



But Obama says he can do whatever he wants on immigration because it's "a serious issue and Congress chooses to do nothing."


If bills became law provided only the Senate and president agreed, the Nicaraguan Contras would have been funded out of the U.S. Treasury, Reagan would have gotten his MX missiles in 1982 and the Soviet Union would have fallen five years sooner, school busing would have been eliminated without waiting for the courts to act a decade later, and most of George W. Bush's tax cuts would have been made permanent. In all those cases, a president wanted to do something -- and the Senate agreed! But the House said no, so it never happened.


Obama can't ignore the House and make amnesty happen either. That's why he's talking about an "executive amnesty," which sounds like the top-tier donation category at one of the 4 million fundraisers Obama has held since becoming president, where the dinner starts at $25,000 per couple and you might bump into Jay-Z in the men's room. Actually, it just means Obama publicly, openly, officially stops enforcing immigration law.


Except in his own mind, Obama can't make illegals legal. But he can direct the entire immigration apparatus of the federal government to act as if amnesty has passed. The theory is that once they've been treated as if they're legal for a few years, it's a fait accompli, and no future president will resume enforcement of the law.


Although consistent with historical practice, it's not where the country is at all. This election is our first referendum on amnesty.


Not only do we have Obama's promise that he'll refuse to execute the law -- it's not as if he took some kind of oath, after all -- but there's good reason to believe him: After this election, he's got nothing to lose. Democrats will have two years to sign up 30 million illegal immigrants for Social Security benefits, food stamps and voting cards.


There is no more important political issue than this: Republicans must take the Senate this year.


You know how much you've been enjoying the courts overturning state referendums prohibiting gay marriage? Get ready for a lot more of your hard-won political victories to be nullified by the courts if Republicans don't take a Senate majority.


Remember how the Supreme Court upheld Obamacare on a 5-4 vote? Obama could have a shot at replacing another Supreme Court justice in the next two years. As a senator, he voted against both of Bush's nominees, so he can't very well complain if Republicans reject his loony-bird nominees.


Have you heard about the federal judge conspiring with Attorney General Eric Holder and the ACLU to bring deported illegal aliens back from Mexico? Yes, he's bringing them back. That judge, John A. Kronstadt, can't be impeached unless Republicans take the Senate.


With Republican majorities in both the House and Senate, Congress should just keep passing bills and sending them to the White House -- or whatever golf course Obama's on, busily not executing the law. If Obama vetoes their bills, Republicans can denounce him as a "do-nothing" president.


And keep in mind, this election will determine whether President Ted Cruz or President Mitt Romney will have a Republican Congress in 2017. They won't -- unless Republicans win every possible Senate race this year. The Senate seats up for election two years from now are not nearly as favorable to Republicans as the Senate seats up this year.


Unforced Republican errors in Delaware, Indiana, Missouri, Connecticut and West Virginia in the last few election cycles have already cost Republicans five Senate seats. (See my last book for the heart-breaking details.)


Five! Think of that! Republicans would have 50 seats in the Senate right now -- maybe 51, if they could flip Sen. Joe Manchin in West Virginia -- but for Republican stupidity, arrogance and narcissism. Instead of desperately hoping to win a bare majority, we would be one "wave election" away from a veto-proof majority.


Surveying the wreckage of a mere two years of a Democratic president with a Democratic Congress, all Americans should be focused like a laser beam on putting the Senate in Republican hands.


Won't you be angry if our power-mad president grants millions of illegal immigrants "executive amnesty" on the basis of his nonexistent constitutional authority to ignore the law? The surge of needy foreigners across our Southern border, so far, will be nothing compared to what's coming if Obama does this.


He says he will. He thinks voters are too stupid to notice.


Prove him wrong.

A practice that needs to be brought back.

Ann gets it on immigration and amnesty. Here in VA, Ed Gillespie doesn't even bring up immigration and the fact that Warner voted for the Gang of 8 bill that will triple legal immigration over the next decade to 33 million an double the size of the guest worker programs to 1.4 million "temporary" workers a year.

The sad fact is that the GOPe agrees with the Obama amnesty and secretly support him doing it.

“The sad fact is that the GOPe agrees with the Obama amnesty and secretly support him doing it.”

The simple reality is that those who run this country (in both parties) are not going to watch it wither away into ghost towns as the American population shrinks; they will do whatever it takes to keep classrooms filled with children, store aisles filled with shoppers, and housing filled with occupants. Here in NJ our American population has declined (costing us an electoral vote) while the total population has increased - solely due to illegal aliens. Rather than go the way of the NY’s Catskill Mountains (which depopulated after first industry, then tourism disappeared), our rulers are simply drawing people from all over the globe to keep the lights on here. In the end, the dwindling number of makers will be increasingly crushed by the costs of the takers, who have their own thriving black market economy (in jobs, businesses, and illegal apartments) all over the state.

Obama is claiming to have the powers of a dictator.

He does have the power of a Dictator, and he's actually done us a favor in that he has exposed the fatal flaw in the US Constitution.

It's become evident that the Constitution is deficient, and this evil degenerate son of a moslem screwing communist whore is all over it.

There is no check on the power of the POTUS save impeachment.

If the votes aren't there in the Senate, the POTUS is in effect a dictator who can literally orchestrate an invasion by foreign nationals, and there isn't a damn thing anyone can do about it.

The right will take power for maybe the last time in 2016.

This opportunity must not be wasted.

The American marxist movement must be destroyed using all means necessary.

That means putting in place the SOP to ensure the marxists NEVER control ANY branch of FEDGOV EVER AGAIN.

Time to do what needs to be done, because this is the END.

There is nothing in the Constitution that limits the SCOTUS to just 9 morons, time to put another 6 sane RABID RIGHT WING justices on the court to rubber stamp whatever necessary measures are taken.

Time to do what needs tom be done, because this is the END.

The Right either fundamentally transforms the country in 2016 right back to where it was before this degenerate communist son of a whore seized power, or it's over.

This is the last chance the Right is going to get.

NO EARLY VOTING

NO FELONS VOTING

VOTER FRAUD MINIMUM 25 YEAR SENTENCE.

THROW OUT ALL REGISTRATIONS, NEW NATIONAL VOTER ID CARD REQUIRED TO VOTE.

INVESTIGATE , INDICT, AND IMPRISON ALL SOCIALIST CROOKS IN THE CONGRESSIONAL PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS.

ALL STATES RIGHT TO WORK.

NO COMPULSORY UNION DUES.

DEFUND ALL LEFT WING PNP ORGANIZATIONS

DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS

CLOSE ALL MOSQUES, DEPORT ALL MOSLEMS.

Smash the AMERICAN LEFT and be done with them once and for all.

Indicting, trying, convicting, and hanging traitors is a practice we should employ regularly. And there are so many demonicrats with whom we, our children, and grandchildren can use to gain such experience.

How many Senate seats have jerks like McCain, Graham and McConnell cost us now, Ann? Just to name a few self serving traitors.

Gillespie is a pissant pol who took the nomination away from a conservative candidate.
He is a GOPe tool.
