OBAMA TO DECLARE AMNESTY
boblonsberry.com ^ | 11/29/14 | Bob Lonsberry

Posted on 11/20/2014 5:41:14 AM PST by shortstop

Tonight on national television Barack Obama will give away what your grandparents worked to get.

He will spit in the face of the Statue of Liberty, repudiate the spirit of Ellis Island, and throw rule of law out the window.

Tonight, by royal decree, Barack Obama will bestow amnesty on millions and millions of illegal aliens.

It is astounding act of arrogance by a president who was repudiated just two weeks ago by an electorate that has no confidence in him. With no mandate and no discussion, the people and the Congress have been left out of a society-changing decree that may forever alter the ability of the United States to control its border and determine its population.

Basically, it’s like somebody breaking into your house and you being ordered by the mayor to let this person stay in your house, with no penalty or removal.

For years, foreigners have purposefully overstayed visas, shown up pregnant to have their anchor babies, and lived under the radar of deportation. Now they are being rewarded for their crimes. Bad is good and good is bad and anybody who can get across the river has a good chance of staying.

Because Barack Obama says so.

A president whose father, aunt and uncle have been illegal aliens in this country has essentially authorized the legalization of enough sneak-ins to populate an average-sized state.

I wonder why.

What explains this? Why is he doing it, why is he doing it this way, and why is he doing it now?

If the president’s assertion is that he is driven by moral reasons to issue his executive order, to protect the interests of these people, where has he been the last six years? If they have to be protected today, why didn’t they have to be protected yesterday?

Why has he let three-quarters of his administration pass before doing anything for illegals?

And why did he wait until after the election? If he knew this was coming – and he clearly did – was his concealment of that fact to shape the outcome of an election an act of moral fraud or dishonesty?

Also, given the repeated warning from congressional Republicans not to do this, and given their looming power in Washington, how smart was it to start this peeing match? Why would a president nuke his relationship with congressional majorities over something like this?

Was it all about politics?

Is the president so cynical and so shallow as to believe that whoever grants the most amnesty gets the most Latino voters? Is this some grab to make Latinos, like blacks, the political property of the Democratic Party?

And if he really cared about immigration or the people caught in the failings of our current immigration system, wouldn’t he work something out with Congress, instead of sour Congress on the whole subject?

And on the political note, he has spent the last six years blaming everything on Republicans. Issue after issue, the problem is, the president claims, evil, racist, obstructionist Republicans who can no longer be tolerated.

This will be one more of those.

Evil Republicans didn’t do it his way, so he is going to do it his way.

If that’s his plan, he’s not a very smart guy. Because the vilification of Republicans has resulted in American electing more Republicans to legislative office than at any other time in American history. The narrative that the Republicans are the bad guys didn’t work on Election Day.

And yet he is using it some more.

He is flipping off the Congress, and the majority of Americans who opposed amnesty for illegal aliens.

Without legislative support, without popular support, without even trying to build public support, he is going forward with his plan.

And at that point it stops being about amnesty and immigration, and it starts being about an oppressive autocrat who is deaf to common sense, even when it comes from the members of his own party who tried to warn him away.

Barack Obama is a god unto himself.

And tonight he will lecture us.

And a simmering public debate of many years standing is pushed aside by a president who doesn’t give a damn about what people think.

I am personally at war now. Every single liberal I know, meet, or see on the street is going to be made to suffer in some way. I won’t do violence to them, but they will pay in some way shape or form. That you can bet.

Gruber was right. The American public is stupid. They elected this monstrosity- twice.

Once, yes. Twice, no. I remember Election Night 2012. Obama was the most surprised man in the room.

Without our tax money the whole corrupt operation grinds to a halt.

No faster way to cut through all the talk and get to the heart of the matter.

I> Do you have the sheer will to sacrifice possibly EVERYTHING to stop the insanity in this world?

No Americans are not willing to give up the comfort zone they now live in. Air conditioning, NFL football, Dancing with The Stars, etc. The chains of their slavery rest too light for them to rebel. The politicians know this.

This is why myself and others are still convinced that will leave the White House when his term expires. Should he refuse to leave, who will tell him no? The Republican Party? The Courts? The people? The Armed Forces? And this is not the first time he has violated his oath of office with no consequences to him.

That man may possibly be the bravest, stupidest, or most blessed human to have ever lived. I bet he still changed his pants when he got home.

I wonder how many lives were saved by his steel balls that day. Directly and indirectly. Just going home with his groceries. Decided enough was enough.

To this day, no one knows the identity of tank man. An unknown hero who has never taken credit.

I heard the only person to fight Chuck Norris and win, is tank man.

Famous Presidential Lies Contest

Written by “To The Point News”

— LBJ:

We were attacked (in the Gulf of Tonkin)

— Nixon:

I am not a crook

— GHW Bush:

Read my lips - No New Taxes

—Clinton:

I did not have sex with that woman... Miss Lewinski

— GW Bush:

Iraq has weapons of mass destruction

— Obama:

I will have the most transparent administration in history.

The stimulus will fund shovel-ready jobs.

I am focused like a laser on creating jobs.

The IRS is not targeting anyone.

It was a spontaneous riot about a movie.

I will put an end to the type of politics that “breeds division, conflict and cynicism”.
You didn’t build that!

I will restore trust in Government.

The Cambridge cops acted stupidly.

The public will have 5 days to look at every bill that lands on my desk

It’s not my red line - it is the world’s red line.

Whistle blowers will be protected in my administration.

We got back every dime we used to rescue the banks and auto companies, with interest.

I am not spying on American citizens.

Obama Care will be good for America.

You can keep your family doctor.

Premiums will be lowered by $2500.

If you like it, you can keep your current healthcare plan.

It’s just like shopping at Amazon.

I knew nothing about “Fast and Furious” gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels.

I knew nothing about IRS targeting conservative groups.

I knew nothing about what happened in Benghazi.

I have never known my uncle from Kenya who is in the country illegally and that was arrested and told to leave the country over 20 years ago and I have never lived with that uncle.

- He finally admitted (12-05-2013) that he DID know his uncle and that he DID live with him.

If elected I promise not to renew the Patriot Act.

If elected I will end the war in Irar and Afghanistan within the 1st 9 months of my term.
I will close Guantanamo within the first 6 months of my term.

I will bridge the gap between black and white and between America and other countries.

And the biggest one of all:

- “I, Barrack Hussein Obama, pledge to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.”

- - I believe we have a winner

"cut all funding to the white house!"

Now why would the GOPe do that come January when they take control of the Congress? The GOPe gets what they want (amnesty) without having to take a public stand by voting on legislation granting amnesty. Looks like a win win situation for the GOPe. (sarcasm tag of course)

It will take years to heal the harm that this man has done to this country. He is a disgrace. His election was the biggest fraud ever perpetrated upon this country.

1. Build the wall—an iron wall of death between the US and Mexico. No one goes north or south for 10 years. No people—no goods.
2. Form a new branch of the military—the Border Guard—like the coast guard but on land. Their job—Man the wall. keep drugs gangs illegals out of the USA.
3. Then make citizens of the following: people who have served in the military and honorably discharged. People who have been her 20 years—and not broken any laws, People who are good tax paying citizens and business people. Perople who have advanced degrees.
4. All criminals—toss back to Old Mexico.

some argued he was not a “true African-American” because his heritage did not include slavery
__________________________________________

I too said that..

and still do...

The “true African-Americans” don’t realize he does not understand them or their “heritage”..

Obama’s Ancestory was done and there was more Arab than African, if I remember correctly...08. However it was based on Obama Sr...

Bari Shabbazz was Malcolm X son, who was in a car accident in Hawaii, then disappeared about age 22 or 23? The notification of his death was sent to that county/city, but no death certificate. One mystery. That case was closed after Zero was elected.

Is he a true African American? Who knows? Seems no one cares at this point in government or media, any more.
