The Big Broadcast Fix for Obama's Amnesty Speech Tonight
Americanthinker.com ^ | 11-20-2014 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 11/20/2014 5:03:25 AM PST by servo1969

President Obama’s speech tonight on his immigration amnesty diktat isn’t aimed at you, if English is your primary language. The White House didn’t even ask the Big Three broadcast networks – CBS, NBC, ABC – for time. We’re in the midst of the November sweeps, and in all likelihood they would have turned him down. But that doesn’t matter – he would just as soon that Gringo-Americans not even hear about his decree.

Obama and the Democrats base their strategy on fragmenting, not uniting Americans, and the speech tonight is aimed at Spanish speakers, who will see the speech broadcast live on the other big broadcast network, Univision, which is for Spanish speakers. And the audience will be huge among Spanish-speakers because the speech is timed to coincide with the Latin Grammys, one of the highest-rated programs of the year on Univision.

Maybe every Red State Congressman could hold an individual press conference addressing their constituency. That would be 100’s of Red State press conferences.....setting up an echo chamber for the people, not the DC elite.

The GOP should demand response time on any network that broadcasts this speech.

Then have someone like Cruz or even Rubio go on and, speaking in Spanish, explain that the US is a Republic based on The Constitution and rule of law and even though a lot of immigrants may support executive amnesty, by operating outside the separation of powers it represents the very same sort of tyranny many of them fled in the hopes of a better life for themselves and their families in the US.

What time is he scheduled to speak? I hate listening to the jackass but will attempt to stomach it. I doubt I’ll last more than 5 minutes through it though. I’d rather read a transcript of what he says than have to hear his voice.

But I would hope that a media person would ask him about Article 1 section 8 of the Constitution which states “The Congress shall have the power to....establish an Uniform Rule of naturalization.”

Even though he supposedly isn’t naturalizing anyone he is still overstepping his authority (IMHO).

CAN AN ILLEGAL ALIEN

DECLARE HIMSELF

LEGAL ?

Free Republic has covered this issue before.
Read this:
The Arab-Kenyan Barack Hussein Obama II, (a.k.a. Barry Soetoro), ( the one guilty of TREASON ! ) has NO legitimate Social Security Number.
His father was NOT an immigrant to the United States. Barack Obama Sr. was a "Transient Alien" because he did NOT intend on residing in the United States permanently.
Barack Obama Sr. was a dual citizen of Great Britain and Kenya, and NEVER a United States Citizen.His mother could NOT impart U.S. citizen to her son, Barack Obama II, because she did NOT meet the legal requirements to do so,
at the time her son was born IN the Coast Provincial General Hospital, MOMBASA, KENYA at 7:21 pm on August 4, 1961.
Democrats knew this and tried to eliminate the "Natural Born Citizen" requirement at least 8 times BEFORE Obama won his election in 2008.

Obama is NOT a United States Citizen, and is NOT a LEGAL IMMIGRANT.
He has no VISA allowing him into this country.
Barack Hussein Obama II IS ILLEGAL !
He should be IMPEACHED IMMEDIATELY, tried for TREASON, SENTENCED to death, and then have his body deported back to Kenya.

Here are some articles to assist in defining "WHO" and "WHAT" Obama IS.
But I disagree. No.
CORRECTION: Barack Obama, the first black Arab-American -Kenyan pResident of the United States.



Read Why did Youtube pull this video about Barack Obama?
and watch BREAKING NEWS! - Is Barack Obama Really A Saudi / Muslim "Plant" in the White House?.

Revolution Day is celebrated annually in Mexico on November 20. That day marks the start of what became the Mexican Revolution. The Mexican Revolution brought the overthrow of dictator José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz Mori after 35 years of rule.

I hope this current batch of leaders have the guts to actually stop him too. But if history repeats itself this time, we need a contingency plan.

Good point. Many people don’t realize the true significance of tonight’s decree. Everything changes from here on out. We are now a monarchy.

Despite the recent election results, the reality is that most Americans just don’t really care about democracy, liberty or our constitution. Just like Rome, all they want is their bread and circuses.

Yes, it would be perceived as a celebracion.

Time for an opposition political party, if there is one, to do something about it.

Time for the boot-licking media (that's the polite term) to get their comeuppance, right now, today for their treachery in supporting this today, just as they've been looking the other way or actively cheering all along.

Otherwise, those who say we can't vote our way out of this are going to start having some credibility...

I'm interested in Governor-elect Abbott in Texas as an opposition leader, followed by certain, or unknown Republican Governors of other states.

Mitch and Boner are downright servile and obsequious to him, for some reason, *ahemCharlieBrownandthefootball* and they will only disappoint time and again. It's up to someone else.

OBAMA’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL AMNESTY TO MIGRANTS THAT ARE LIVING ILLEGALLY IN THE U.S.A.

After destroying the best health care system in the world, Obama is determined to grant wide amnesty to foreigners living illegally in U.S. If Obama wants to make the U.S. into another banana republic, it seems he is well underway to reaching his goal.

The Republicans must make it perfectly clear that Obama has declared a merciless war against the American workers and the middle class of America. There are 92 million of able Americans out of the work force because they cannot find employment and Obama wants to legalize and give work permits to over 11 million illegal aliens allowing them to bring here the rest of their families. In other words, another 25 or 30 million that either will compete with Americans and legal immigrants searching for scarce jobs or are going to be added to welfare, bankrupting Medicaid and the food stamp system as well as ruining even more the quality of the public schools with the massive infuse of hundreds of thousands of children without speaking English to already overburdened schools systems.

Blacks are going to be the main collateral victims of Obama's ill conceived amnesty.

We’ve all been standing on the soap box speaking against this evil creature. That has not been working well so on November 4th we all went to the ballot box and won an overwhelming victory. Now it appears that isn’t going to work either.

That leaves one more box. Lock and load.
