GOP Senator: Obama To 'Effectively End Immigration Enforcement'
The Weekly Standard ^ | 25 Jul 2014 | MICHAEL WARREN

Posted on 07/25/2014 5:56:04 PM PDT by mandaladon

The Obama administration is preparing to effectively "nullify" the immigration laws of the United States through an executive action, says one Republican senator. As Time reported Thursday, President Obama appears prepared to provide millions of illegal immigrants living in the U.S. work authorization via executive orders:

When President Obama issues executive orders on immigration in coming weeks, pro-reform activists are expecting something dramatic: temporary relief from deportation and work authorization for perhaps several million undocumented immigrants. If the activists are right, the sweeping move would upend a contentious policy fight and carry broad political consequences.

The activists met privately with the President and his aides June 30 at the White House, and say in that meeting Obama suggested he will act before the November midterm elections. They hope his decision will offer relief to a significant percentage of the estimated 11.7 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. “He seems resolute that he’s going to go big and go soon,” says Frank Sharry, executive director of the pro-reform group America’s Voice.

Boner is complicit in all this. His stupid lawsuit will be the end. Once he loses the case Obama will have the “legal” authority to do anything he wants.

“To everyone out there silently wondering exactly what it would take for Obama to be impeached, arrested, or otherwise thwarted in his illegal activities, the answer is apparently nothing.”

Correct.

“I know this isn’t a religious thread, but I’m convinced more and more that God is judging our nation. Take a look at Israel’s history as recorded in the scriptures. One way God judged Israel was to have her overtaken by foreigners.
If this is indeed God’s Judgment on America, elections aren’t going to matter. All we can do is repent and pray that God will not let our nation be destroyed.
If this is God’s judgment, we are more than deserving of it.”

Correct - how else can one explain America’s complete and utter collapse on so many fronts and the lack of any serious initiative to stop any of it. Hate to be so cynical, but just look around at all the evidence that this is an avalanche that nothing seems able (or willing) to stop.

I will be calling my elected members of Congress. No matter how many times we've called and nothing came of it, we must continue to call..we must continue to do whatever we can. Since we can't predict the future, we will never know who will act because of our phone call. Stay positive, stay focused and committed, keep fighting, keep calling.

These are just a few of the calamities that can befall a nation who turns its back on God. The whole of Deuteronomy 28 lists many more curses for disobedience. These are just a few of the ones listed which are more pertinent to immigration.

Deuteronomy 28:33, 43-44, 47-52

33 A people that you do not know will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days.

43 The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower. 44 They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, but you will be the tail.

47 Because you did not serve the Lord your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity, 48 therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the Lord sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.

49 The Lord will bring a nation against you from far away, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down, a nation whose language you will not understand, 50 a fierce-looking nation without respect for the old or pity for the young. 51 They will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or olive oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined. 52 They will lay siege to all the cities throughout your land until the high fortified walls in which you trust fall down. They will besiege all the cities throughout the land the Lord your God is giving you.

No one has spent time or treasure to save her...

Tell that to the Koch brothers, every Joe who gives a red cent to FR, tell that to Catherine E and the folks at True the Vote. We may not all be marching in the streets but some are fight with word, deed,.and dollar. It is the ruling class blackmailed, intimidated, and bought off who have sold us out. Identify. them all and pay them a visit with some cookies and compliment their beautiful families.

Where did all of this power come from?

Congress began assigning its constitutional duty to make all laws, to the executive branch in big way under FDR. Along the way, Scotus thought it was cool to make law as well.

When legislative power is exercised by the unelected, despotism is established.

Everything else is irrelevant until this fundamental contradiction and offense to republican government is solved.

Wish we had leaders/a leader who would call for pray and fasting.

“Obama To ‘Effectively End Immigration Enforcement”

Well if he does, that is yet again another blatant act of treason. The guy obviously has it in for the USA, and Congress incredibly still sits on its hands. The Republican party is pathetic, but the Democrats? Holy God, it’s like having the Taliban in Congress. Every day it looks more and more like we are heading towards another Civil war.

Immigration chaos is only the how of what 0bama is doing, its just his tool to seek his ends.

Alinsky was by his very own definition a rebel who sought to destroy.

Neither Alinsky or 0bama have a care about what they were ever driving towards, its all about creating the environment for the fall. They seek to destroy this free democracy (freedom of economics, religion, speech).

0bama has only asserted his view of the future as a vaguely stated environment of “change” and “hope”. The stupid Americans thought that change was a good change an in line with Alisnky its a change accomplishes only that tearing down of American freedom. Yes we can…do what? Has he ever ended any sentence that included these 3 verbal icons of 0bama lingo? No, and he’s likely never going to tell us about what his end in mind really is.

Change can mean improvement or Change can mean punishment - 0bamalinsky’s desire to fundamentally transform America has always meant to fundamentally destroy America.

This is why 0bama is now on the Illegal Immigration tract.

He’s hoping to drive America into chaos and pit American’s against one another, to be the rebel as Alisnky trained him to be to destroy.

Reagan clearly defined America as the shining city on top of the hill, 0bamalinsky seek to make it the path of a failed society to get even with those who have prospered in any way by this freedom.

Hope and Change were always cover for Destroy and Punish - only 0bama has always been way to smart to actually ever let that come out.
