OUTRAGE: Obama Bypasses Congress; Gives Amnesty, Work Permits to 1 Million Illegal Aliens

He's done it again. After enacting a virtual amnesty-by-decree for 300,000 illegal aliens last August, Obama is once again showing his total contempt for the rule of law by announcing a new amnesty and work permits for up to 1 million illegal aliens - effective immediately.

DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano today announced that effective immediately, people who were brought to the United States before the age of 16 and meet certain criteria will be considered for relief from removal from the country or from entering into removal proceedings. Those eligible will receive deferred action for a period of two years, subject to renewal, and will be eligible to apply for work authorization.
This action represents an administrative end-run around Congress, which twice rejected the ‘DREAM Act’ in 2010.

1 million illegal aliens now have an immediate reprieve from deportation and will not be subject to deportation for at least two years - which the DHS can, unilaterally, extend this reprieve indefinitely using its own authority, not subject to Congressional approval. And we suspect, as with Sen. Dick Durbin's DREAM Act, DHS can also provide unlimited reprieves and overrides for any of these illegal aliens, again on its own sole authority.

And Obama finally produces a jobs program - but for ILLEGAL ALIENS - as a million illegals will be added to a workforce to compete with Americans workers already suffering through a record length of recession unemployment.

We knew this was coming. Illegal alien advocates La Raza, ACLU, MALDEF and others have been urging Obama to sign an executive order for amnesty for weeks now, and press reports hinted that this might occur. But now, with his poll numbers collapsing, and independent voters abandoning him in swing states, Obama is using this virtual amnesty as a blatant attempt to garner more of the "Latino" vote, which itself had been souring on him for 2 years.

We need to see the fine print of this order, but if it is similar to the DREAM Act, we should expect an immediate increase in border crossings and massive new fraud as ineligible illegals and foreign nationals scramble to get in on the amnesty order - just as occured in 1986. That is because - as SWA noted in its objection - the DREAM Act would have permitted ANY illegal alien to apply for the amnesty, even if they were well outside the bounds of its terms, and they would be granted an automatic stay of deportation pending "investigation" - which could be extended indefinitely by the DHS Secretary.

If this order matches those terms of the DREAM Act, then we may well be looking at a MAJOR amnesty of more than 2 million ADDITIONAL illegals, due to document fraud, new border crossings, and fraudulent applications.

Enough is enough. This disgraceful end-run of the rule of law and constitution must NOT stand!

How many, besides me, see this as a serious act of Tyranny and that if it is allowed to stand sets a precedent that renders the Constitution and any hope of the rule of law to be sustained TERMINATED?

How can the either the Legislative or Judicial Branch allow this to stand unanswered?

To me this is the most blatant and serious ursurpation of power we have yet seen. It is a brazen action of a DICTATOR.

I have thought about this since it was announced, at least two hours. Today, I am not just angry and alarmed, I have been that way now for four years, I am afraid. It is no laughing matter as Limbaugh is treating it.

This assumption of power by the White House is terrible, but it is unfortunately an old story.

When I was researching the EPA, I was shocked to discover that the Agency and its authority were created, not by legislation, but by executive order (Nixon, 1971). This gigantic and powerful entity's eanbling law cannt be repealed, because there is no enabling law in the first place.

Have you heard from Boehner of Mitch McConnell about this?

Will they do anything about this?

How about Reid and Pelosi?

How about anybody except Allan West?

We don’t need to get rid of Obama. We need to roid ourselves of the whole STINKING bunch on Capitol Hill.

Obama doesn’t care anything about our children. He looking to scare up some votes. If Republicans do nothing about this they should all be run out of town.

Do you think it's worse than creating the EPA by executive order?

I believe both Reagan and Bubba did the same.

Yes, we have had a bunch of lib rinos for a long time.

EPA should be ended the same way it started. In fact, every EO should end with the end of the administration who declared it.

NO, fact is, we should do away with EO entirely.

Today, I fear for the Republic more than I ever have. Today, not just the law was ignored but the sovereignty of the entire nation has been declared immaterial. The very principle of a nation with borders and a definition has been pissed on.

I am angry beyond words. My blood is boiling over this.

However, you do realize that the RINO elites that is our leadership in Congress will do absolutely nothing (substantive)?

We are right to be angry at Obama, but the GOP-e shares blame because they will NOT stand up for our Constitution.

Isn’t Congress on vacation? If they are (on vacation) zer0 has pulled this where and when there will be no discussion on the floor of the House or Senate. Appears planned, much like recess appointment. Discouraging ... to put it mildly.

For three years the undocumented Tyrant has worked
against America, and the US Congress has been his
little doggie, there to serve him.

They are all criminals against the American
people and the US Constitution.
No wonder the entire Congress is HATED.

Shortly lots of young people will show up at ICE with a US HS diploma and a forged Mexican BC matching it and ask for their visa. There are no pictures and finger prints matching US HS records. Real forged Mexican BC’s are easy to get from the original sources. My ex-sister in law had her younger sisters become her kids compliments of a original forged BC from Mexico. BC’s from the Third World are worthless.

What outrage? The Obama administration used certain parameters to keep a sub group of the illegal Immigrant population from being deported. The Parameter that people not of age that entered the country illegally are not considered a criminal therefore they only have no status.
