Obama bypasses Congress on DREAM Act, stops deporting young illegals

As I understand it, his Executive Order does not grant citizenship or an easier road to it. It simply says that these illegals that have been here for a long time with their parents will not be sent home. There's a difference between that and automatic citizenship.

Then what exactly is it ? If there's no penalty, then what's to stop this practice of sneaking kids in ?
It's like saying it's shoplifting if you walk out of the store with that pair of pants, but if you do we'll do nothing about it.

Except pants aren't people, my friend.

We have always had immigration laws. Now apparently we have ripped up the paper the law is printed on.

By the way, when are you going to stop lying about Lincoln ?
 
those on the right that are outraged by this are only outraged becuase they know it gave Obama a political edge.

My first reaction was outrage for that exact reason...and when I calmed down I realized there is nothing wrong with this decision.

you're wrong dumbass, we were outraged when McCain and Kennedy tried it too..

why wont you answer the obvious question.....why do you deem a child who is forced to come here by his parents as one committing a crime?

Why does this outrage you?

How can you be so heartless? The kid did nothing wrong...his parents did....and out of the blue, after doing everything right such as completeing high school and looking to move ahead...you want to send him to hell?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

What does US law say asswipe? or are we into writing our own laws and making up the rules as we go along? How many more are you going to let enter the country illegally and why do you favor illegal workers over Americans?
 
Thumbs up for rewarding a crime?

Curious....if guy robs a bank and he has his kid in the back seat of the getaway car....would you call the kid a criminal?

Point well taken, but the kid doesn't get to keep the money, thus get rewarded, for his father's crime, either, does he?

excellent point.

But we are not talking about rewarding the child.

We are talking about not punishing him and uprooting him and sending him to a place he barley knows...if he knows it at all..

It's not a point well taken. It's not Americas fault that some damn kids parents decided to break US law.

He did it once. He can do it again.
 
Obama didn't "bypass" congress. Congress (Rs) Do Nothing. President Obama waited more than three years for congress to do their job. They did not and have even SAID REPEATEDLY that they would not do their job he really had no choice.

Hell, if it were up to the Rs, bin laden would still be watching porn and ordering hits on US citizens.

Its not "impeachable" and, in FACT, ReaganBushBush all three passed similar legislation.

This will force mitt to finally take a real stand. I'd bet that someone is telling him what he thinks right now.

If you want to whine, feel sorry for poor Marco Rubio. He had planned to announce the very same thing in order to get Latinos to vote for the worthless etch a sketch.

we have a divided Congress......the House stops the Senate.....and the Senate stops the House....this is nothing new in history....

Obama....instead of providing LEADERSHIP....runs off and makes his own rules......:evil:

how can making an end run around the Constitution be good for America....?

I got so damn sick of watching him trying to work WITH congress when, in point of fact, the day after he was sworn in, DeMint stood up in congress and said none of them would work with him.

McCain has said the same, Boehner just said it about two weeks ago - just before he left on yet another vacation.

I'm glad to see Obama return the favor to the Do Nothings.

But, all the hysteria aside, all this amounts to is extending work permits for two years.

BFD

Of course you are. You're loving this kingdom type rule. He could do anything and you would worship.
 
I admire the fuck out of Jarhead for being intellectually honest enough to recognize when dogma has reached its logical end. We may disagree on a lot of shit Jarhead, by my respect for you (as worthless as that is to you I'm sure), just went up a billion percent.

lol....not to worry...tomorrow you and I will disagree about something and I will be back on your shit list again.....:razz:

Are you really this stupid? Passed legislation means they signed bills that were approved by the House and Senate. The fact that immigration bills have been enacted in the past, does not mean that the President, no, not even barack obama, can enact law without Congress.

Ignoring the grade school name calling, you are correct.

Thank you.

My point stands.

Please don't ever wonder why people think of Conservatives as heartless cocks. Because this post should go right in the Heartless Cock Hall of Fame. Right next to every speech ever given by Dick Nixon.

ha ha. And I'll be back on yours. :)
 
Whether you agree with the executive order or not, Obama has shown some real leadership with this move. He has said many times that he will get things done whether it is through congress or not. Well he did....like it or not.

As for the order itself....if we were in a booming economy, it would be a no brainer...and likely all would agree. However, with so many Amereicans out of work, I can understand the anger by some.

In my opinion.....of the 800K or so, likely none of them would have been deported anyway.....but now many of them will be adding to the tax revenue.

So Obama gets a thumbs up from this conservative.

These are mostly teens who contribute nothing. If someone is working under the table and getting it all in cash, do you really think they are going to the boss and tell them to pay them less and start taking out taxes? Surely you jest. They will continue working under the table and getting it all in cash.

What it will do, is stop deportations of criminal gang members.
 
If I was a Mexican under 30 years old, I'd have my parents sneak me across the border. They could then return home and I would have free reign to take away a job from a real American.
 
Let me just tell ya folks.. people broke into this country illegaly dragging their children in with them. The American taxpayer was FORCED to educate them, feed them, clothe them and to provide medical care for them. We've done enough for them. Now they need to go back to their country of origin and get in line just the way all those who have waited patiently to enter legally are doing. We've done plenty for the kids of the illegals. Don't try to lay a damn guilt trip on us.
