I thought the Constitution required that The President shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed. I assert he is ignoring the laws and thinks he is our king.

He cannot even prove he meets the Constitutional requirement to be The President.

Gary I think you should check your facts. The 2007 immigration bill did not pass the Senate and failed three cloture votes that effectively killed the bill. The bill was subsequently called up again and also failed a cloture vote which killed the bill for good while Bush was still in office. When the new Congress took office in January 2008 a new bill was not considered due to the fact that it had little or no chance of passing (based on the prior years experience).

Wow, look at the manly Mike Pence react in goose step fashion to those Republican Party screw-ups Boehner and McConnell.

The Three Stooges. I laugh off my rear when I hear Pence opine that he too might one day be POTUS. Pence is the proverbial legend in his own mind.

The impotence of the RINO establishment Republicans like Pence, Boehner, McConnell, et al., is one reason I blew off the last election. Nothing changes when we keep electing men like these... men with no cojones at all... to power.

They huff, they puff, and in the end, do NOTHING to defend the US Constitution. And that means they are doing NOTHING to defend me and voters like me.

Elections? Taking the time to vote with the result being no change? Why would I bother????

As I read the comments to this particular blog article my fear for the safety of the Republic grows exponentially.

The low-info voter pool widens. Could a larger group of uninformed fools able to elect the likes of Marist Obama, the evil Reid, and the extremist liberal Nancy Pelosi be found anywhere else on Earth?

Thank God for Gary Welsh and his wise replies to the brain dead responders who doubtlessly believe they are Mensa material.

The is entirely a fight about votes. The Republicans wanted nothing to be done about immigration until after the 2016 election so they could accuse the Democrats of doing nothing at all for Latinos. The Democrats couldn't get a compromise bill through the House, largely because Republicans were afraid of their conservative base. What the executive order does, is largely what's being done anyway, but now it's publicized. If the Republicans take this away in the new congress, they look good to their base, but bad to the Latino voters. Way too much fuss about very little.

Wall Street and the Chamber of Commerce have already spoken. They want more slave labor imported into this country to destroy what remains of the middle class.

I suppose we need to wait for Wall Street and the Chamber of Commerce to weigh in and tell our Elected Officials how to act.

If Obama's actions create a big pool of cheap labor, so much the better for the bottom line, and a big thumbs up from Wall Street and the Chamber of Commerce.

I dunno that legal action against the President will go anywhere: prosecutorial discretion is indeed part of the executive branch's powers. That said, it's politically unwise to antagonize a Congress with several critters eyeing a presidential run when appropriations season is going to begin.

2014-11-21T11:01:45.325-05:00

President Obama and the Democratic-controlled Congress did nothing during his first term in office. During Bush's last term, a bipartisan immigration reform bill had passed both the Senate and House before Obama did everything he could to make sure it got killed so Republicans wouldn't get any credit for acting on immigration reform. The man is a maniacal, narcissistic dictator who has no respect for the rule of law. Immigration reform is needed, but his actions will only lead to a further breakdown in the immigration laws, which at a certain point will become meaningless. if they haven't already.

Sitting on the sidelines and presenting no plan or vote for over ten years for immigration...or 9/11 first responders and firemen for care...and whom is at fault?
