Republicans Say Obama's De Facto Amnesty Move Violates Oath of Office
Conservative Nation News ^ | June 15, 2012

(The Hill) -- Republicans are criticizing the Obama administration’s new leniency for some illegal immigrants as a politically motivated and possibly illegal effort to win over Hispanic voters.

The Republicans contend the new rules — which will prevent deportations for as many as 800,000 illegal immigrants brought to the United States as children — circumvent the law just to buy Obama support from Hispanics ahead of November's elections, in which the Hispanic vote will likely be crucial.

Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said the change marks "a breach of faith with the American people."

“This huge policy shift has horrible consequences for unemployed Americans looking for jobs and violates President Obama’s oath to uphold the laws of this land," Smith said in a statement.

Why should that stop him?

One more reason we can’t allow him to have a second term under any circumstances.

Don’t sit this one out folks!

They have been doing this all along. The record number of deportations was probably the same as the BS as the unemployment rate. With this announcement they are just playing to their base and hoping that Romney says something that will slow his momentum.

The unintended consequence will be that a tidal wave of illegals will flood our borders.

Someone better stand up to this flitting fairy and let him know he’s not above the law.

He and others like him need to be taught a lesson — they are NOT bigger than this country, this Constitution. We’re a nation of laws and will be long after they’re gone.

And the same goes for all these petulant little Dream Act monsters and their sympathizers who think the United States owes them a living.

What Hussein is doing here is outrageous but I am giddy over it.

This is a gigantic own-goal by Team Obama.

This makes them look cynical and desperate in a way that is so blatant it will be easy to exploit and difficult to defend.

Today’s action makes every ‘Rat candidate nationwide more vulnerable.

Ok then Smith, you’ve crossed the line and acknowledged the obvious publicly.

So NOW, you are violating YOUR oaths of office if you don’t take the arrogantly racist bastard. and his phalanx of talentless, summarily unaccomplished, Ivy League Communists down.

Obama does these things because he knows he can get away with it. Congress lets him get away with it because they know they can get away with it. The fault lies with US, the voters, for letting Congress get away with it.

The "Let the black man do whatever he wants" phenomenon is killing America. Collectively, we've been forced to tolerate 0bama's illegal acts (starting from day one with his ineligibility) for so long we've decided to allow it.. OBVIOUSLY!

Prolonged desensitization to 0bama's assault on our Constitution sets bad precedence for future expectations for the rule of law.

The source of this problem is Bohner and his cowardice to fight back out of ‘fear of the race card.’ And the rest are too meek to overrule him.

Gutless, unprincipled cowards.

Not true... that is bull! I voted for a TEA PARTY candidate named Palazzo in 2010... he promised to abide by the Constitution and ran on a limited government agenda... he was co-opted within 10 minutes of arriving in DC. I voted AGAINST Palazzo in our recent primary... you tell me how I am responsible for their corrupt inaction and outright lying to us?
