What he is going to do is called amnesty. Bet on it.
^^^^^^^^^^^ Quoted for truth.

When Congress passes laws, yes. The partisan gridlock in the Capitol is strangling us as a nation. I halfway hope that the GOP does win control of the Senate in November because it's probably our only hope of actually getting something passed. It may get vetoed, but that is part of the process.
Ya know, I listened to Obama say he was going to take his latest Executive Action because the Tea Party wouldn't let Boehner vote on the wonderful Senate Immigration Bill.
And what he said he was going to do was send personnel to manage the border.
So I wondered why he needs another bill to make him enforce the border when we already have laws that require him to do that very thing.
Then I realized he was playing with words again.
He didn't mean he was taking E.A. to enforce the border, he meant he was going to send more people to process all those kids.
Just like he had planned from the beginning of the year.
Say what you will, he's a scumbag all right, but he's the most proficiently lying scumbag President we've ever had.

Obama finally saying enough is enough. If congress wont come with him, then he will got at it alone. [/FONT][/COLOR]
When did he gain the power to legislate? We're not supposed to have a king.
Forget the GOP they're just as bad as the progressives.
The GOP is just as good as the progressive establishment.
It seems that one man's dictator is another man's effective leader.
For example, the folks who are whining, "Dictator! Dictator!," have no real big problem with the GOP dominated congress that dictates a stagnant, filibustering, stonewalling agenda that dictates that the sitting president is unable to carry out any and all measures he was voted into office to do and carry out the majority will of America, who voted him into office, twice.
It's kinda weak if you ask me but whatever. Myself, I'm glad to see Obama growing a nutsack and telling these obstructionists to take a hike. It's long overdue.
Just my two-cents though.
The GOP filibusters in the Senate and quivers in the House.
This is RE-gressive, not PROGRESS--ive .

Executive orders only apply to federal agencies, employees.Executive orders don't apply to everyone????? that sounds like affirmative action....
Hmmm so executive orders are inherently illegal and "fascist"? Well looks like every single POTUS except 1 was a fascist by your definition.Using your logic (which I don't agree with) progressives are even more fascist then I thought.
Obstructionists? WTF? They voted in Obamacare without even reading it. That doesn't sound obstructionist to me.

"In his statement, Obama announced he was ordering a shift in security resources to border regions, and he promised the additional action he can take "without Congress but within his existing authorities to fix as much of our broken immigration system as we can.""Given that our immigration laws are statutory in nature, I don't know how in the hell he thinks he is going to do that. I guess this will be another set of laws he and Holder will be telling us to ignore.
It's already defined in the constitution. he obviously doesn't know what that is.
this is exactly why all these kids and their families are flocking to the US.
He says not to bring them that they won't be accepted lol yet goes and does this.
Well then, lest I be incorrect twice let me get a better understanding. The GOP congress has worked very closely with the president trying to assist him in every way possible to bring the agenda, that was voted for by majority America, twice, to be realized. There were no filibusters. There were no Dr. Suess readings. No government shut downs and the GOP is on record as working hand and hand with the democrats by voting for the things that America wanted Obama to accomplish. They were behind Obamacare all the way.
Is that better?
I know. Executive orders arent dictatorial decrees.

Executive Orders (EOs) are legally binding orders given by the President, acting as the head of the Executive Branch, to Federal Administrative Agencies. Executive Orders are generally used to direct federal agencies and officials in their execution of congressionally established laws or policies. However, in many instances they have been used to guide agencies in directions contrary to congressional intent.
Not all EOs are created equal. Proclamations, for example, are a special type of Executive Order that are generally ceremonial or symbolic, such as when the President declares National Take Your Child To Work Day. Another subset of Executive Orders are those concerned with national security or defense issues. These have generally been known as National Security Directives. Under the Clinton Administration, they have been termed "Presidential Decision Directives."
Executive Orders do not require Congressional approval to take effect but they have the same legal weight as laws passed by Congress. The President's source of authority to issue Executive Orders can be found in the Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution which grants to the President the "executive Power." Section 3 of Article II further directs the President to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed." To implement or execute the laws of the land, Presidents give direction and guidance to Executive Branch agencies and departments, often in the form of Executive Orders.

Sounds like some people in this thread need to re-read what an executive order is.
