Obama Braces For Immigration Battle With GOP
By David Nakamura December 15
President Obama is bracing for a political and legal battle with Republicans next year over his executive actions on immigration, but as he seeks to rally support against the anticipated assault, a lingering frustration among some Latinos could mean renewed pressure on him to do even more to protect illegal immigrants.
After six years in which his administration took a tough line on deportations, Obamas decision to shield up to 4 million more undocumented immigrants from being removed from the country was in part aimed at repairing damage with a key constituency whose support for the president has plummeted.

Beyond immigration, the president also has been counting on Latinos to support his health-care law.

...and the GOPe.
LOL. In reality Obama just played word games (surprising right?) with the definition of "deported".
They are what they are.
For all practical purposes Obama has thrown “his people” under the bus.

Corporate Socialism / Immigration bump for later...
The eGOP will not give him a moment’s pause.
I think we can drop the ‘e’ now.
Note should be taken as to which businesses are backing amnesty.
To date Obama has signed no executive orders regarding immigration.
Enthusiastically spread the word about the “Protest Against Obama Amnesty” rally across America for 2015-01-03 ... Ted Cruz, Jeff Sessions, Mike Lee (et al) will GREATLY appreciate our support ... A great Patriot turn-out WILL encourage the Senate and House GOP to dump McConnell and Boehner ... God Bless America ...
