The ID “documents” are the problem, as Sessions pointed out. The memoranda created the Task Force, and the Task Force will recommend the ID “documents.”
The EO ordering the “Dream Act” and then its changes, on the other hand, are illegal. They could not get the “Dream Act” through a Democratic-controlled, lame-duck Congress in December 2010, despite all the marches and pity fests, so it had to be done illegally.
It galls me how they take everything nice (Bush’s remark about the “sueno americano,” the American dream) and turn it into something vile. “My brother’s keeper,” which should apply to everyone, is now only for people of a certain age, gender, and color, the street meaning of “brother” maybe but not the classic meaning, as in brotherhood etc.
