Re: Krauthammer: 'Impeachable Offense'
You are too late. Presidents already have done things I didn't like without even consulting Congress.. Bush redefined torture and violated the Geneva convention. If he can do that Obama can certainly stop a few deportations.
So you won't answer my question, but want me to answer yours... lol... typical.
OK then... A pardon isn't amnesty. A pardon means you are forgiven for a crime you committed, but it does not grant the person the right to continue to commit the crime with impunity. He could pardon them for breaking our law, but not sending them back is a whole sale rewriting of federal law....
So as I said, just think about the precedent Obama will be setting (using executive orders to decree new immigration law) and ask yourself if you will feel comfortable with a Republican president being able to do the very same thing with the laws and issues that are of great importance to you? If you can honestly say that you would be comfortable with that, then go after me with both guns... But if you can't, then it's about time that you, and every single liberal who feels the same way, to use your voices to stop this from happening.
