Obama Amnesty Begins: Halts Deportations for 300,000 Illegal Aliens; Offers ‘Work Permits’
Stand With Arizona ^ | August 18, 2011 | John Hill--Stand With Arizona

Posted on 08/18/2011 3:42:59 PM PDT by luvie

The Obama Administration today announced a virtual amnesty-by-decree for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens, whose deportations will be “indefinitely delayed”. In addition, Obama finally announced a jobs program – but for ILLEGAL ALIENS, not citizens – as those 300,000 illegals will also become eligible for “work permits“.

This action represents an administrative end-run around Congress, which twice rejected the ‘DREAM Act’ in 2010. As disgraceful as is this usurpation of Congressional authority, this announcement is even worse than is being reported.

Demoraticulous reps and senators for allowing that much cheap labor into the country

The black block is getting really angry at Oboma for ignoring their unemployment numbers. Now, Oboma is bringing in illegals to make sure their numbers go down even further.
This should get interesting. Oboma is personally giving away their jobs.

Lamar Smith is trying, but Obama has become a dictator.

Nothing sounds crazy in the year 2011

Ain't that the truth! We thought Carter was bad when he screwed up the Iranian hostage deal and gave away the Panama Canal. We would never have dreamed that we would have a Marxist in the White House importing voters from Mexico

Nothing is beyond this narcissistic fool and his band of criminals!

Isn’t this political suicide for Obama?

I think he's got a plan sometime between now and Jan 20th of 2013 or (id he wins the election Jan 20th of 2017.

He's not going anywhere.

I hope the work permits expire in January 2013. We know where they are. I wonder how many will want to be arrested to get work permits.

I just turned on FOX News and nothing about this yet there.

What? There is a coup d'etat going on, and they're spiking the story?

What about Fleet Street?

So what is the Congressional response to this. Can they defund NOT doing deporting illegals? How can Congress force a cabinet level agency to enforce its own rules? I do see a big problem with the article, though:

In addition, Obama finally announced a jobs program – but for ILLEGAL ALIENS, not citizens – as those 300,000 illegals will also become eligible for "work permits".

I've been unable to find any information about "work permits" for illegals other than on the standwitharizona.com website. It looks like the author just made up that part. So it seems like one response would be for the states to continue to restrict entitlements and services for illegals, i.e., no college enrollment, no employment available, no welfare or food stamps, etc. They can stay here, but they can't work and they can't eat. Maybe that's a way out of this mess.

They won't mind, if Obozo explains to them he's doing it to screw Mr. Charlie and shove him up against the wall forever.

Seriously. Make up a list of what you feel are CLEARLY impeachable offenses...not nit picky stuff, but the REAL issues. It’s HUGE. It that ain’t a clear cut ‘showing premeditation since it all ties together to destroy the country and provable’ reason to impeach, then nothing is. To hell with fear of riots. That’s what the National Guard are for.

Use the 25th Ammendment based on his premeditation, take him out of power, install Biden (for now) and Impeach Obama.

Biden will be far less destructive than the naked communist.

No sign of an EO, this is being done purely by fiat. I wonder if congress will push back, or will they accept this as a blameless outcome?

Contact your preferred candidate and demand they make noise...lots of it. Force the Repubs to act since they are too cowardly to do it on their own.

That’s the only way IMO.

Democrats and Rinos will be jubilant that they can keep their tax free gardeners and house keepers...

The help may now want minimum wages, payroll taxes paid and workman's comp. Not such a good deal now.

Barack Obama has done NOTHING in his first term that benefits in any way this nation.

Everything he's done from day one has been to our disadvantage.

Obama Amnesty Campaign Begins: Halts Deportations for 300,000 Illegal Aliens; Offers ‘Work Permits’

Got to get those Latinos fired up. He knows with one stroke, he can both ingratiate himself to them, while inviting conservatives to respond (which they will, vociferously), thus creating a nice 2012 wedge issue.
