Obama: Political Theater ‘Not Something That Comes Naturally to Me’
“....Reagan believed in strength and might for self-protection. Obama believes in “might.” He thinks, Yes, I might do this and I might do that. I don’t know. The less I do, the better. I don’t want the responsibility of my acts.
Remember when Obama was a senator in Illinois. He never took a position on anything. He was always “present.” But he was never really present. He has never been here for us...”

““forcing” Obama into the position of having to take potentially unpopular unilateral action to legalize a portion of the 11 million illegal immigrants currently residing in the U.S.”
Well, let me see...we’ve heard the “11 million number” for how many years...15...20? We know the border is not secure and millions upon millions more are here now.
The real number must be closer to 30 million, conservatively speaking.
Eleven Million, is it now?
How is it that the NSA knows the contents of my sock drawer, but we can’t determine to, the nearest Ten Million, how many illegal aliens are living in the United States?
The congressmen/women who fail to do Obama's bidding were elected by citizens who expect them to represent their interests
and to keep their oath to preserve, protect and defend the US Constitution.
It is not their job to be Obama's lap dogs. like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and others.
When Obama doesn't get what he wants he calls names and throws a hissy fit like a 12 year old girl.
This quote from P.J. O’Rourke describes Obama quite well:
“At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child - miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding,
ill disciplined, despotic, and useless. Liberalism is the philosophy of sniveling brats.”
Hey Idiot.....Obama’s going to make 6 MILLION people LEGAL the day after the election, and ANY Republican that STAYS home on Election Day should be ASHAMED of themselves for not sending TROOPS to try to STOP this!
So typical of Dems to project when namecalling.
It is within the scope of Congressional authority to do nothing about a given issue.
Many of our problems, maybe most of them, come from Congress doing “something” as opposed to nothing.
Congress exercising its authority to do nothing does not expand the scope of Presidential authority.
The “do nothing” congress that has passed almost 400 bills in the House ... most with bipartisan support ... that are now sitting on Reids desk waiting for the Senate to do something with them? That do nothing congress?
That is, can executive action be used to deny 8,000,000 illegals work visas instead of giving them work visas?
It seems to me that if President Obama has the legal power to use executive action to hand out work visas to illegals, then he should also have the legal power to deny such work visas.
NOTE: Obama likes to use the phrase "Because it was the right thing to do" when he tries to justify his decision on a controversial subject like illegal immigration.
So get ready to hear Obama use that phrase above over and over as he tries to justify to the American people why he signed his executive order granting work visas to 8,000,000 illegals instead of denying visas to 8,000,000 illegals.
The truth is that some of these idiotic Marxist measures -- like the "card check" unionization law that labor unions had been pushing in the 2008 election cycle -- are so politically dangerous that even Democrats won't touch them.
Of course, in Obonics, a "portion" translates into "all of".
Or else,what? Are they threatening to burn the country down? I don't know. Sure sounds like it.
Or---this is a wild idea---they all threaten to go home if we 300,000,000 American citizens don't immediately do what 8,000,000 illegals demand that we do. I can dream can't I?
Again, I find the idea so weird that 8,000,000+ illegals and their American citizen supporters can demand that we do their bidding immediately or all hell will break loose. Sad. So sad.
