The Constitution defines Presidential powers and duties in Article II, which includes in Section 3 the following: "...he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed."

As for "procescutorial discretion" it is meant to be applied to individual or small classes of cases and that is how it has always been applied in US Immigration laws - until this Fidel Castro wannabee decided to be his 3rd world tyrannical self.

This country has a long history of changing immigration laws, but each and every change was by an Act of Congress and not by Stalinist Presidential Decree!

If Presidential Amnesty is not lawless, impeachable and unconstitutional than nothing is.

You are exactly right, and I agree with you. Look, if Obama was white and we were talking about the Chinese women that come here in droves to have their anchor babies...there might be a case for impeachment. The simple fact is that he is not and they are not and it is not going to happen..not by a republican who wants to stay, or achieve office, (Cruz). It is political suicide to rise up against the Hispanic vote. Those are the facts..what we are seeing is theater, and the destruction of our country for political gain.

Do you honestly think that he couldn’t get away with this?

Probably what some people said about Hitler and Stalin. Future generations wondered why someone didn’t put a bullet in their heads first.

What does “simply directed” mean in terms of the Constitution? Did both Houses of Congress pass a bill declaring that a referenced E.O. does have any effect, knowing that the president would either not sign the bill, or possibly veto the bill.

The only way Congress can "direct" anything is through legislation. But they can avoid the veto by attaching a rider to a bill the President doesn't want to veto.

Congress had best get their lazy arrogant and ignorant asses to work destroying these illegal executive orders starting now. They had better not just be talking heads wringing their hands lest they be replaced, and soon.

Funny, Boener didn’t mention during presser.

That's because he was busy fellating Obama.
