The Amnesty Memo (Obama to enact “meaningful immigration reform absent legislative action”)

According to an internal U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services memo going the rounds of Capitol Hill and obtained by National Review, the agency is considering ways in which it could enact “meaningful immigration reform absent legislative action” — that is, without the consent of the American people through a vote in Congress.

“This memorandum offers administrative relief options to . . . reduce the threat of removal for certain individuals present in the United States without authorization,” it reads.

Also: “In the absence of Comprehensive Immigration Reform, USCIS can extend benefits and/or protections to many individuals and groups by issuing new guidance and regulations, exercising discretion with regard to parole-in-place, deferred action and the issuance of Notices to Appear (NTA), and adopting significant process improvements.”

No, WE can’t. Only Congress can. And I am not holding my breath.

THE GALLOWS PROJECT...HOW TO BUILD A HANGMAN’S GALLOWS

Please keep in mind, this isn’t a full-blown tutorial on how to build a hangman’s gallows, but just a step-by-step recount of how I approached the project and solved the many problems I encountered on the way. Nevertheless, I hope you learn from my experience and blunders so that things will go a little more smoothly when you decide to hang some of your (REPS IN DC) miniature outlaws.

Obama is a pathetic POS. A pox on him and all of the rats.

this admin thinks they are emperors

Caligula was an emperor. See where his abuse of power got him.

We can hope that history will repeat itself.

This must be met with a resounding, defiant and in your face NO right up front. No more of these chicago thug shenanigans! It’s time for Washington to wave the white flag seeking amnesty from patriotic, constitutional-loving Americans. We can see November.

Political ping

[Rome2000]

The GOP and the right has got to make this point very clear.

This whole “immigration debate” is about MAKING DEMOCRAT VOTERS OUT OF ILLEGAL ALIEN FELONS AFTER GRANTING THEM AMNESTY.

And the answer to that is not no, but HELL NO, and also make it clear that if the socialists succeed in MAKING DEMOCRAT VOTERS OUT OF ILLEGAL ALIEN FELONS AFTER GRANTING THEM AMNESTY, their CITIZENSHIP AND RIGHT TO WORK WILL BE REVOKED AND THEIR ASSES DEPORTED AND THROWN IN JAIL as soon as the GOP takes over Congress and the Presidency.

This is a god damned war, we need to fight this marxist dirty trick to the last man

Repeal Ded Kennedys Immigration Act of 1965 and increase the quota of white anti communist from Europe

There has to be a political appointee over those career DHS people. I this originated with them we are in more serious trouble than we thought and have been for years.

BTTT!

You are right. He sure as heck is working on it with the latest amnesty scheme, control of the Great Lakes and Ocean going to the UN etc. If they get amnesty I fear Obama will never leave office..that is if we have a Country left.

[AuntB]

Yep. I’ve been listening to Levin, and he’s right on. They’ll worm through an amnesty any way they can.

The easiest way he [Obama] can do it is to have the State Dept. issue legal resident status for all of them as ‘refugees’ of the worn torn holes they crawled out of...just like they just did with Haitian illegal aliens and so many others.

So WHO in this dept wrote this attack on the Constitution in clear violation of the Legislative process. AND since Congress has to allocate Money for this process, is this just ANOTHER reason why Nan didn’t want a budget this year?

And there's the crux of the issue, and that's why November is so important. Congress would have clear standing to take an executive order like this to the USSC.

But note the very interesting parallel: the key words in this statement are, "In the absence of Comprehensive Immigration Reform...."

That's essentially the same position that Arizona is taking: if Congress won't deal with the issue, we will.

Why's it great when AZ does it, but not great when the Executive Branch does it?

“”WAR”

We’ve been at war.
It’s clear Obama is siding with the invading army.

Some dare to call it treason. “

Bears repeating.
