In politics, like chess...it's important to think several moves ahead. For several months now, we've been told that by the end of summer, Obama will use his pen and cell phone to issue executive orders granting amnesty to some 5 million now illegally in the US. The thing about Executive Orders, is that they're just that...they're not law, and they're not binding on future presidents. So....
Even if the GOP wins the Senate in November, and Congress passes bills overturning Obama's action..Obama will veto them.
Which brings us smack dab into the 2016 presidential campaign. One GOP hopeful will be the first to announce that if elected, his first action will be to overturn Obama executive order. Heck, if you read Rubio's comments in the link above..he sounds like he's ready to do it himself.
So, what happens then?
Will all the other candidates feel the need to go along. Could anyone who doesn't take the pledge have a chance of winning a Republican primary? And what about the 5 million newly amnestied..are they now suddenly "illegal" again? Does it get tied up in the courts for years? The MSM rails against "cruel Republicans..you can write the headlines.
It seems to me that there are a lot of unasked, let alone unanswered questions here.
Is this the Democrats' real strategy?
Congress will gladly cede their Constitutional authority this enemy islamist.
Just like they pledged to overturn Traitorobamacare?!?
Or like any 2016 GOP candidate for president will pledge to indict Traitorobama and his regime for giving aid and comfort to the enemy?
May GOP political candidates could just pledge that, if elected, they will be no more than some specified fraction of a traitor relative to their Demonicrat opponent.
And what about the 5 million newly amnestied..are they now suddenly “illegal” again? Does it get tied up in the courts for years? The MSM rails against “cruel Republicans..you can write the headlines.

what about the 5 million newly amnestied..suddenly “legal” ???
Does THAT get tied up in the courts for years?
We would hope so...
Pledges..
Willard never did sign a pledge to overturn Roe V Wade..
However he did pledge verbally that he never would...
Pen is for keeping score, phone is for arranging tee times.
Every 2016 GOP candidate should also bring up the question of Islam in our midst.
Our congress critters are totally mute about the terrorists that live among us and seem to be embarrassed to even bring up the subject.
Stop muzzie immigration all together — we don’t need them, they have nothing to offer our society and they have no intention to integrate and are here to destroy our way of life.
Read the Koran, dammit! Drop your PC attitude. Do something for your country for a change instead of only thinking of your precious careers!
Such a pledge will be good so long as there is a Senate that will not pass it and a president that will veto it. Much show will be made then the subject will fade away as the Republicans learn the benefits of fatter bank accounts and long term income.
What the US and most other nations need is a time out from ALL immigration. That includes refugee status.
The nation is at a crisis point, and it's becoming a matter of how the collapse of at least some aspects of our once great civilization will be handled. The best that can be done now is to manage the decline in such a way that at least some parts of the US and other countries can emerge from it.
I should think so, but will they actually do it?
The people have guns. Are there leaders? Perhaps the military would step in but that presents problems in itself.
Won’t matter cause you know everyone who benefitted will sue, and the Federal Courts in the end will insist that Obama’s deal be upheld.
Why would anyone believe them if they did? They gave an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States and see how that has gone.
True amnesty is for a crime committed in the past; unless they are given legal status and can prove it, from the point forward the amnesty was granted another crime was committed.
Now I'm betting the border-jumpers are in no rush to get "legalized." They got a dam good thing going---cashing multiple US govt checks under several identities.
They dont want that money pile messed up....... and neither do their foreign handlers.
Their homeland govts are making a bundle via the swarmers' "remittances" (AKA money-laundered US tax dollars wired offshore.)
