Harry Reid: Good Luck Trying to Undo Executive Amnesty
breitbart.com ^ | November 20, 2014 | Caroline May

Outgoing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) argues that despite the fact that President Obama’s executive amnesty will not have the force of law, it would be very difficult for another president to rescind.

“This is something that is fair and the right thing to do,” Reid said on Thursday. “They have the opportunity at some later time, some president to say, ‘I want this all changed.’ I wish that person luck to try to tell these millions of people and their families -- who many at that time will have many, many more United States citizens -- are going to be pretty hard to rescind what this first step is.”

Reid called the scope of the executive amnesty -- expected to encompass some 5 million illegal immigrants -- “pretty good.”

Cancel their work permits and deport the whole family. Repeat 5 million times.

Someone explain this? Harry Reid says this amnesty will not have the force of law? Well if it doesn’t have the force of law, then what is the debate on this all about? If it doesn’t have the force of all, then all of us are free to ignore this, right? All federal employees, border patrol, Congress, anyone can just ignore it, right? If it doesn’t have the force of law??? What am I missing???

Thanks Harry, for letting all the nitwits on our side who think the GOP can gain politically from this obscenity now and and undo it later what your plans really are.

The ‘fair and right thing to do’ is to frog-march Harry Reid to the nearest wall and allow seven duly authorized riflemen to do justice.

Immigration in this large of a number is all about votes...the work permit card should have a pic and it will take a long time to implement getting the cards...so they can use it to vote in 2016...got it? Democrat votes of course, since they are obligated to Zero for helping them get those work permits.

Good luck indeed, Reid you sorry sack of bleep.

When the Repubs in Congress refuse to fund this blantant attempt to pander to illegals soley for their votes, you and the Bamster will look even more stupid than you already are.

They think that by saying something calmly and claiming it is fair makes it so. It does not. But many people are sold with tone rather than substance. It is the art of all good con men.

You know folks, this could just be the catalyst that wakes the American public up so much so, that they will demand immigration be fixed now! And I’m talking the kind of fix the illegals may not like.

This actually could back-fire massively.

As a people we’re slow to anger, but it could become tantamount to treason to be seen as talking up amnesty.

Harry Reid is a no good punk and has betrayed his nation.

Good luck defending executive amnesty when it blows up in your face, Filthy Harry.

First order of business for the newly minted Senate should be a full scale investigation into all the dollars Harry sent to Nevada to benefit his family and himself...

RE: Good Luck Trying to Undo Executive Amnesty

OK people, what are the options for a GOP Congress (both upper and lower house) realistically?

“Don’t worry , remember it’s Obama doing this ,he has a Perfect Record of FAIL.”

On the contrary, Obama has been very successful in his transformative agenda, and this amnesty is an important part of it. It’s our side which won’t do what’s necessary to stop him.

If we had started doing what we were supposed to when they first said “Well you can’t just deport 7 million people”, we’d be done by now.
