Source: Administration Weighs Bypassing Congress to Let Illegal Immigrants Stay

The Obama administration has been holding behind-the-scenes talks to determine whether the Department of Homeland Security can unilaterally grant legal status on a mass basis to illegal immigrants, a former Bush administration official who spoke with at least three people involved in those talks told FoxNews.com.

The Obama administration has been holding behind-the-scenes talks to determine whether the Department of Homeland Security can unilaterally grant legal status on a mass basis to illegal immigrants, a former Bush administration official who spoke with at least three people involved in those talks told FoxNews.com.

The issue was raised publicly by eight Republican senators who wrote to the White House on Monday to complain that they had heard the administration was readying a "Plan B" in case a comprehensive immigration reform bill cannot win enough support to clear Congress.

The White House would not confirm or deny the claim. But the former Bush official said the discussions are real.

They can only win when others live in fear. We cannot submit to their thinking. I don’t watch Beck but he should be instilling encouragement - because we have the truth - and come hell or high water, we will win. A defeatist attitude because of so much evil in this admin - is playing right into their hands.

If they do this - Obama can kiss 2012 goodbye ...

The Won doesn't care about 2012.

If he believes he has fatally wounded this country, the keystone of the arch of Western Civilization, he'll believe his life's work is done.

When I was more actively involved in pro-life activities years ago, we kept saying...."they can't do that, can they"....(esp. regarding RICO targeting pro-life folks.....or American citizens on public sidewalks arrested)

...but they could .....and they did.

Nothing surprises me anymore.

I saw Bloomy on FoxNews the other day, he actuall said that a very low percentage of the undocumented are law breakers. The idiot didn’t acknowledge that 100% of illegal aliens are law breakers from the moment they step foot in the US.

Let me play Devil’s Advocate here, FRiend... if one person or a group of individuals (think militia) attempted to overthrow the government in DC by force, the full brunt of America’s military, Secret Service, FBI, CIA, DC Local Police, State Police, and armed security would obliterate that armed force and those who survive would be put on trial and executed for treason. If anyone is willing to band together to fight tyranny, they’re signing their own death warrant. We would have to have wholesale buy-in from every gun owner and patriot in the country to even begin to get DC quaking in their boots. The defensive infrastructure in place in this country is such that the ordinary citizen in a militia would be completely overwhelmed with any attempt at a coup.

If the States were to muster their militias and order war on DC, I could see some progress being made, but we’ve been conditioned to believe that the Fed is our daddy and they will provide and protect us. No one has the balls to take on Big Guv, and we’re going to be relegated to Roman status sooner rather than later.

If he can declare you a citizen by fiat....can he also decree you a non citizen?

Can his agents still declare me a terrorist and then declare me a non-citizen?

If it could be done, the Democrats would have already done it.

It can easily be done. What can you do t stop it. At the very least he could issue full pardon from prosecution to all illegals. Maybe the Court would see it differently, but don't bet on it.

I have said from the beginning, this President plans to be there for life.

If the media did its job, we would never have been in this situation.

The media did it's job, it's just not the job you expected.

That's the problem - DEFEATISTS. Fear is working - that's the point. Beck should be encouraging and demanding. Yesterday was the time to take action. Seems alot have been lulled into a 'November' moment.

Chief executives of several major corporations, including Hewlett-Packard, Boeing, Disney and News Corp., are joining Mayor Michael Bloomberg

You left Rupert Murdock of you list. He was on the morning show with Duecy and stated in no uncertain terms the news should push for amnesty.

I’m starting to believe this is all by design...I mean, if Bush had been a great president

His daddy told us It is a New World Order, but we didn't listen.

Even someone as power hungry as the “dims” have to know that economically this is totally unworkable.

Never heard of Cloward-Piven huh? That is the plan, to destroy the economy.

Go for it Barry Soetoro.And while you are at it, explain how a foreign student named Barry at Occidental College fraudulently applied for and received student loans under false social security numbers while holding Indonesian passport and citizenship.Barry, you seem to have an attitude problem.

BARRY, Barry , barry , bury,our tax dollars are NOT for non citizens, despite your substitution of political correctness for the law of our nation.

This is an impeachable offence. I hope he goes for it. We will have fun getting all those federal tax dollars spent on illegal aliens back from the coffers of the Democrat Party.

Buahahahahahahaha! COME TO AMERICA ALL YOU ILLEGALS,,,, ITS FREE LUNCH TIME!!!!!!INSTEAD OF CITIZENSHIP COURSES YOU WILL BE TAKING THE SHORT OBAMARAMA COURSE ON HOW TO VOTE MORE THAN ONCE IN AN ELECTION, EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED.

ITS WONDERFUL TO WATCH FASCISTS WORK OUTSIDE THE LAW. UNCLE ADOLF DID THE SAME IN HIS RISE TO POWER. DOOM ON YOU BARRY, AND ALL YOUR RUNNING DOGS.

Second, the 41 GOP Senators will tell Husseing that NOTHING will advance in the Senate up throught January 2011 if he tries this.

We don't have 41 senators, else none of this crap would be happening. The health bill would never have got out of committee if we did.

YES WE ARE!

Wow that sure makes me feel better, all caps. Did you notice the Finance Bill that passed today? We don't know what is in that either, but it gives the President broad new powers. You can delude yourself into safety, but this guy is marching forward.

Soon they will try to shut down the internet, and talk radio, if they fail there maybe we can make a comeback, but right now we are speeding down the rat hole. As far back as McCarthy we were warned.

Exactly. Nothing was done because of FEAR and now it is more prevalent. They certainly can say - 'we gotcha'. Not because they had anything on their side but because of what our side had - FEAR! they bought into every evil work of the 'rats - PC is one of them. Let's not rock the boat mentality. It worked because of FEAR!

Saying we are a nation of no laws are pawns of the left. All the 'rats had to do is 'act' like it - and they got their wish. Amazing.
