Morning Plum: Obama to set off bomb in middle of midterms
Washington Post ^ | July 9, 2014 | BY GREG SARGENT

Posted on 07/09/2014 8:52:36 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Now that Republicans have made it clear that they will not participate on any level in basic problem solving when it comes to our immigration crisis, it is now on Obama to determine just how far he can go unilaterally, particularly when it comes to easing the pace of deportations. This is going to be one of the most consequential decisions of his presidency in substantive, moral, and legal terms, and politically, it could set off a bomb this fall, in the middle of the midterm elections.

I read a piece by Plouffy in the WSJ yesterday how the Dems will turn Arizona, Georgia, and eventually Texas Democrat via immigration.

Republicans are perfectly willing to work on reform. They just don’t want to do what he wants them to do. That’s quite a difference.

Of course, in the new Obama America, there is no loyal opposition - crucial to a democracy - but all opposition has been criminalized.

The Editorial Pages of the WSJ is one of the biggest supporters of open borders. What is that famous about the capitalist selling rope to hang themselves.

“Now that Republicans have made it clear that they will not participate on any level in basic problem solving when it comes to our immigration crisis...”

This first sentence of the article is so intellectually dishonest that I didn’t have the stomach to read any more of it. If this type of article/reporting actually passes as “news” today and the Washington Post receives no criticism or blow back for printing this fairy tale, we are most certainly doomed.

Again, one guy, Greg Sargent’s opinion. These newspapers put out this trash like it’s some kind of all-knowing seer who’s speaking.

It’s one guy, one dumb, tyrannical guy named Greg.

Refusal by crybaby House Speaker Boehner to Impeach Obama for failure to secure the Southern Border requires that We, The People take matters into our own hands.

An excellent place to start is for us to “encourage” our local “Independent” School Boards to ban all Public School programs, such as teaching or speaking Spanish, that would, in any way, provide aid and comfort to the Spanish-speaking Illegal Alien Invaders.

Banning the teaching and speaking of Spanish in Public Schools would expel many Illegal Alien Invaders from US Public Schools, and thus reduce the financial impact to US Taxpayers whose taxes pay for Public Schools.

The failure of the Obama Administration to protect the Citizens of the US from the expenses and job losses caused by the Invasion of Illegal Alien Invaders from Spanish-speaking countries proves that this Obama-caused “Dreamer” Invasion was implemented by Obama to “Fundamentally transform the United States of America.”

It is time, - - - time for a change.

It’s a simple matter really. They can match the IRS records of our number of dependents, and compare with our local tax assessors’ information on home sizes. If it’s determined that our homes are under-utilized for our family size, then the Feds can assign us a number of immigrants to come live with us until they reach age 25.

That’s the idea. Immigration becomes the issue, not the many scandals and Obamacare. The MSM will gladly assist in that effort. And it helps get out the Dem base of minorities, especially Hispanics. The Community Organizer knows how to pit groups against one another. Immigration is really just another race card.

From our point of view, it is indeed the Republicans’ fault,

because they’ve made it clear that the man’s teflon tan will shield him from any attempt to thwart his actions.

Now, as far as public opinion goes, the media will spin any occurrence of negative circumstance as being the fault of Repbulicans.

Look at it as a foreshadowing of what they’ll do when the world economy crashes. It won’t be the fault of those that intentionally crashed it, it will be the fault of those that were preparing for it.

What part of "You must turn off the flow before you can fix the problem" don't liberals understand?!?!

It doesn't matter if you are working with water, electricity or immigration problems. The first step is always, ALWAYS the same thing: TURN OFF THE FLOW!

If you do anything else, you are wasting time, energy, and resources!

If these people were working on a patient, they would be screaming that we need to fix his high-blood pressure, all the while, the patient is bleeding out from a massive, sucking chest wound!

CementJungle; you are right and Rush should likely say this on Monday that redistribution does mean taking F/C houses and some not foreclosed and giving them away.

Sargent is a left wing d-bag who need a whoopin...of course the irony is out in California, a true conservative red state (/sar) people have been protesting and stopping bus loads full of immigrants from entering their town the past week...

i heard sargent interviewed by Geraldo prior to the ‘12 election when geraldo had a radio show- Sargent sounds as weasley as he seems...

Good, succinct summary.

With Obama, its always someone else’s fault.
