The Border: Polls show Democrats have decisively lost the debate over granting amnesty to illegals. But has that stopped them? Hardly. Using the federal bureaucracy as their agent, they plan to do it anyway.
This is what happens when big government becomes so powerful that those who run it feel they can do whatever they want — no matter what the Constitution allows or the people prefer.
Americans strongly oppose amnesty for those here illegally. Democrats have been frightened away from trying to pass an amnesty bill because they're terrified of the political consequences.
But as the Associated Press reports, that doesn't mean amnesty is dead. Far from it. Indeed, the White House and Congress have apparently decided on a policy of "backdoor amnesty" — giving the U.S.' immigration bureaucracy the go-ahead to enforce an amnesty law that has never been passed.
An 11-page memo written by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) officials suggests that, in the absence of an immigration overhaul, the agency could provide "relief" to illegals anyway. This would include, according to the memo, putting off deportation for some illegals or even giving green cards to others.
"This memorandum," it says, "offers administrative relief options to ... reduce the threat of removal for certain individuals present in the United States without authorization."
In other words, the bureaucracy is no longer beholden to the law — it is the law. Our beloved bureaucrats clearly don't believe they need Congress' OK to do what they want.

The Dems need their votes plain and simple.
Right now they know they have lost many of the public even if they do have the biased media so they have to get these legal.
Which I might add is a slap in the face to legal immigrants who came here and did things the right way.
So if the Democrats are going to play games and avoid Legislation? would that tactic stand up to a Supreme Court challenge?
who’s going to stop them if they do?
Seriously - who?
Our courts will bend over.
Our Congress will roll over.
In absense of opposition, why not do anything you want?
I just heard on Hannity that Dan Blather has predicted that the GOP will take back the House, in November. Amnesty is one major reason for this.
The Dims controlling all branches of govenment has proved to be more than an unmitigated disaster. It is apocalyptic.
Probably not, but who will bring it before them? After years of working its way up through the court system, if will be too late.

Don’t forget the media who will cover it up.
I have seen this movie before in history. There will be blood.
The answer, I think, involves bloodshed... one way or the other.

During Reconstruction in 1867, the congress effectively took away control of the military from the president.
