'We're Not Going To Deport You': Obama Announces Amnesty For Millions Of 'Anchor Baby' Parents And Illegal Immigrant Children – as long as they've been in US for five years Obama addressed the nation to outline a new executive order that will allow millions of illegal immigrants to remain in the country
President acknowledges that it's a temporary fix and demands help from Congress to make it permanent Anyone who takes advantage of the program will have to pass criminal and national security background checks, pay their taxes, pay a fee and prove their eligibility Two Republican aides complained about an 'amnesty' for people who came to the US illegally and then had children here – calling their children 'anchor babies' By DAVID MARTOSKO 20 November 2014
President Obama announced a plan Thursday night to mainstream millions of illegal immigrants with an executive order allowing them to stay instead of facing deportation, bringing howls from Republicans who complained about so-called 'anchor babies' helping their illegal parents remain in the U.S. The president calmly explained in a 15-minute speech – subtitled in Spanish – the parameters of what angry Republicans are calling a lawless 'amnesty.'
'We’re going to offer the following deal,' he said: 'If you’ve been in America for more than five years; if you have children who are American citizens or legal residents; if you register, pass a criminal background check, and you’re willing to pay your fair share of taxes – you’ll be able to apply to stay in this country temporarily, without fear of deportation.' 'You can come out of the shadows and get right with the law.'

When the US changes its national language to Spanish (about 20 years after Obama’s amnesty) do you think the voting rights act will force them to offer us election ballots in English like we must give them Spanish ones now?
Thanks for the laugh. I was hasty in my comment.
I agree, in fact he was even BETTER than Reagan.
Only now they start to appreciate what a great legacy GWB left us.
But what took so long for you to join OhioWBot (OWF) and me anyways?
Si. But it won't matter cause there would be no one worth voting for at that point.
W. Bush was such a train wreck at the end that I think you CAN make a case for his daddy as “the best Star Wars movie since ROJ”. Perhaps not a great case, but it’s debatable.
Hmmm. I’m going to apply my sports criteria (modified) to POTUS:
You gotta win a championship to be considered the best in sports.
You gotta win 2 terms to be considered a successful POTUS.
Well, Bush I won a Championship with players drafted by Reagan.
Exactly.
