Obama vows to use executive action on immigration before new GOP Congress sworn in
Washington Times ^ | 11/9/14 | S.A. Miller

Posted on 11/09/2014 9:57:47 AM PST by Nachum

President Obama said Sunday that he plans to proceed with an executive order to ease immigration laws before the end of the year, despite dire warnings from Republican leaders that it will damage his relationship with the new GOP-run Congress. Mr. Obama said that he’s waited a year for the Republican-run House to act on the bipartisan immigration bill passed by the Democrat-run Senate, and he can’t wait any longer to address the country’s immigration problems. “I’d prefer and still prefer to see it done through Congress. But every day that I wait, we’re misallocating resources, we’re deporting people that shouldn’t be

So if Obola can unilaterally pass his own immigration amnesty because he's tired of waiting for the Republicans to do it why can't he do the same thing with gun control and climate change for the very same reason?

If we no longer need three branches of government, why doesn't Obola just disband Congress and send them home?

Well if they lack the guts, have no respect for all the men and women that died for the U.S. Constitution, then we will be well on our way to a revolution. You can guarantee that.

Oh and if THAT HAPPENS..... Consider the U.S. Constitution dead.

It’s time for Obama to witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station which shall be known as the 114th United States Congress.

Anyone here illegally should be deported, but no one even murderers is being deported. What a bunch of crap!

*******

Just wondering: If, as Obama claims, he can use executive power to stop the deportation of at least 8,000,000 illegals, can the reverse also be true?

That is, can another president also use that same executive power to order the DEPORTATION of 8,000,000 ILLEGALS somewhere down the road?

To me, the reverse should be true.

Agree. How can it possibly be that this president has such dictatorial power, in this case more than enough to completely remake the country against the will of its citizens.

There has GOT to be a way to stop this.

If the Current Occupant really wants to step into that mine field, he will probably have a worse time of it than the final year Nixon had in office. And no, I would not consider Articles of Impeachment, they would only backfire, as they did with Billy Jeff. But a delegation of legislators from the minority party marching down Pennsylvania Avenue and confronting the Current Occupant, much like the Congressional Republicans did with Nixon, may be the final push needed for his resignation.

Yes, I know, Joe Biden would be Acting President then. And much as I despise the mockery Biden has made of high elective office, at this point, he may not be looking so bad.

Be careful what tone you set, you may have to live with it a long, long time.

All power is not concentrated in the Oval Orifice of the White Hut.

Yet.

Once the bureaucracy swings into action to implement his amnesty, as I’m sure they happily will (its job security for them), how can it be reversed? This thing has to be stopped before the bastard president can get it off the ground.

I don’t....I still have faith in the American people in sprite of all the nonsense.

Freedom is in our DNA. It just has to be activated, and I think it may already have been. Just look at the election last Tuesday as an example.

Obama’s Amnesty is essentially the same plan as the Bush-McCain Amnesty in 2006.

The GOP leadership, the Wall Street Journal, and the Republican Beltway consultants will find a way to give Obama exactly what he wants.

Also he will get millions of new votes for the dems in 2016.

It would be interesting to hear what mme Clinton thinks about this...she may actually be prodding him to do this so she can reap the votes.

"The Supreme Court may have to weigh in on this."

They have as little regard for the Constitution as he does.

The president is not eligible for the office.

In order to impeach him, the Republicans must prove that he is legally in the office,
an impossible task.

Impeachment is a dead end on this foreign-born, islamic, jihadi president who is
ineligible for the office he has usurped through two stolen elections.

”… , then they will call for the immediate impeachment and removal from office."

Unfortunately, Constitution-ignorant “patriots" have been asleep at the wheel with respect to making sure, after the 2010, 2012 and 2014 elections, that there are enough conservative lawmakers in the Senate to insure that the Senate can remove Obama from office should the House impeach him.

More specifically, the Senate still doesn’t have the obvious 2/3 conservative majority votes required by the Constitution’s Clause 6 of Section 3 of Article I that you can bet your next paycheck that the Senate would remove an impeached Obama from office.

Note that not having a solid 2/3 conservative Senate majority to remove a corrupt president from office after three frigging election cycles is arguably the best example yet of major problems with the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.

What's next, executive orders on gun control?

You're a complete full on dictator when you have accomplished:

Socialized medicine - Check

Gun Control - On deck

Is there any doubt any more with anyone that Obama is a communist?

Obama's Communist History and Communist Takeover News

People get upset when I talk about this, but Look at the Data! I've dealt with data all my life, and this guy has Too Much Data/History to think otherwise. . . and that's just the stuff we know about. .

Horowitz nails it too with The Threat We Face

Pray for America and Prepare.

I hope he does it.
This country needs a good test as far as I am concerned.
God is our only hope.

I would go ahead and and watch this POS use and EO on this. Judge Andrew Napolitano said that it would be only temporary and that Obama cannot give them ccitizenship or voting rights by Executive fiat.

GOP needs to not get sucked in to some kind of amnesty. This amnesty, the GOP would rightfully be blamed for.

And they say it would be a waste of time to impeach him. I don’t care if it takes until he has one day left! History needs to show him as an impeached and disgraced president!!!
