He's gotten away with everything so far, why should he be worried? Things that, by themselves, would've seen almost every other previous president impeached or worse are like water off a duck's back to this man, as he attends parties, plays golf and vacations every other day.

Not a fan of OReilly, but I think he’s right on this one...
If Obama tries it, he’s toast.

[hennie pennie]

It's like he & his cronies are simply props, no power, just for show, and the real work is being done by a behind the scenes machine which doesn't care whether he's impeached or not.

10 million? more like 30-40 million.

There certainly isn’t any rush to get rid of the illegals and now Obozo is calling on “immigrant rights groups” and unions to push for amnesty.

If Obama tries this by an Executive Order, the EO could be rejected by the Senate and overridden. Do any of you remember Executive Order 13083 when Bill Clinton tried to remove the Tenth Amendment? The Senate overturned it and tonguelashed the White House. Seems like the vote was 99-0, or something similar. Obama might have been elected by a slight majority, but that majority is evaporated. He should be impeached if he tries to circumvent the congress.

I've just recently read the statutes. And, as a practical matter, this just isn't possible. While it's true Obama could pardon (grant amnesty) for the violation(s) of 8 U.S.C. § 1325, and the other associated violations of US Code commited by illegaly entering the country, that would be the end of it. He could shield the illegals from criminal jeopardy, but he could not grant them asylum, or any kind of permanent residency with the stroke of a pen.

Asylum and permanent residency are both strictly controlled by existing US law. As such, they cannot be undone by an Executive Order, and the law(s) as it currently exists, do not allow for such asylum to virtually all of these immigrants, nor does it outlaw for an expedited permanent residency process (short of asylum).

I suppose it's possible something could be slipped into some omnibus budget bill, or other huge piece of legislation that would amend the existing law. That would be somewhat unlikely, but not altogether impossible.

where Federal Judge Stephen C. Robinson has ruled that in Port Chester, N.Y., each Hispanic resident can have six votes, but non-Hispanics can only have one vote?

The suit DID NOT give Hispanics six votes and everybody else one. It gave EVERYBODY six votes, which they could plump for one candidate or divide amongst up to six candidates. IN other words, "cumulative voting" as practiced in some corporations, and for the Illinois legislature, prior to the 1970s.

...the estimated 10.8 million illegal immigrants...

What a crock. This is one time the commie 'RATS aren't inflating the numbers. Instead, they have lowered them down to a number they believe Americans may be willing to tolerate and accept. Don't believe the lying commies. IT'S 30 MILLION.
