Any executive order Obama passes can be reversed by the next president.
That is a completely illogical statement.
I guess it depends on what executive amnesty really is. Is it just not deporting? Is it forgiving the crime of crossing the border illegally, or is it issuing Green cards to all illegals.
If congress isn’t necessary to take in this many people —illegals, that is— then congress isn’t necessary for anything.
Several on the following thread seem to disagree with your post...and want everyone to stop whining, be patient and give Bonehead a chance to stop 0’s Amnesty EO and REPEAL 0bolaCare....

Let me make it simpler for you:
Boner may block EXECUTIVE Amnesty, so he can pass GOPe Amnesty.
Do you understand now?
That may be more logical a statement but it is now just stupid.
Has the ever been an executive order reversed by the next president?
. Turn off the goodies tap.
If you look at the Liberty Amendments proposed by Mark Levin, mine are more specific, but they are in line with his general proposals that result in the Congress and states the right to clip the fedgov.
“Of course, Obama is hardly the first president to use unilateral action to accomplish his goals. And as he goes it alone, he will face the same consequences that previous administrations did. Some of his executive orders will endure, but with others, the president will find that the next chief executive is as ready to change policy as he is.
Particularly in the years since Ronald Reagan, presidents have come to the White House ready to sweep aside previous administrations’ policies and go around Congress, moving to enact their own policies without waiting for legislation or executive branch agencies. Indeed, moves to reverse one’s predecessor can look like presidential Ping-Pong.
Reagan, for example, issued the highly controversial Mexico City Policy directive, blocking U.S. aid to organizations providing abortion counseling. This policy was immediately reversed by Bill Clinton, only to be just as quickly reinstated by George W. Bush and rejected again by Obama. The same thing happened with security classification — Jimmy Carter limited what government information could be restricted as classified before Reagan required more security controls. Then, Reagan was overruled by Clinton, who was overruled by Bush, who was overruled by Obama.”
True— if we get an Article V convention. I tend to think that the Pubs will go RINO as they usually do— the allure of staying in power by greasing the skids with public money seems to be unbeatable.
Thank you for the update
