Has anyone seen the executive Order?

There does not appear to be one. There are two orders that establish study groups to study immigration and report back to the president on how the immigration system can be improved but no EO that directs the actions he outlined, (vaquely), in his speech.

There is also Secretary Jeh Johnson’s order of prosecutorial discretion that catagorizes the types of illegal immigrants that are priority, but that is within the law for him to do that.

Then, read the transcropt of O’s speech and you will see that he never once says “Executive Order”.

I think that 1) he knows that if he signs an EO with specificity of the actions he is ordering than he gives standing for a law suit. 2) he punked the GOPe’s, (and the latino community), because he has not ordered any action, officially, to be performed by his executive agencies.

How does this help him? It gets the news cycle on the conservative media screaming bloody murder and it makes the latino community think he has just fulfilled his promise for amnesty. He can then say “see how radical the Republicans are that they would jump to the conclusion that I had violated the law and constitution when I actually only ordered that the subject be studied. See how much they hate immigrants and want to harm them. They have no compassion”.

Any thoughts?

Hussein Obama hates the American Constitution and is doing all he can do to destroy it. As America’s first Muslim president, he will continue on until he is exposed and stopped with force.

Everything he does is to hurt America economically, cause racial strife, cause political turmoil, weaken the Constitution etc.

Many Americans believe Hussein Obama is an incompetent black in way over his head when in fact, Hussein is working with Muslim terrorists to destroy America as we know it. Does Benghazi now make sense?

Americans are the the biggest fools in history.

Not me. I was responding to the headline. If it's like ACA, we will see various amendments etc. until the end of time.

You have introduced facts that to me were not previously in evidence.

As I understand your post, the president came on with a powerful bluff designed to convey a false message apparently to force action from the new ongress

Your explanation is plausible. Or perhaps he was testing the waters or providing cover for something else.

Good catch. I’ve been very busy lately and only saw the headline. I should have known the headlines usually a lie.
