It's funny how during the Bush years the far left was up in arms about perverting the Constitution for wiretaps and other executive orders. But now that President Obama has done this and more, but on topics they agree with, suddenly he is visionary and transformational.
This move should be upsetting to everyone on either side of the aisle.
Maybe there's, you know, a little personal self interest in all this business about making illegals legal . But its not like the law can't be thrown out by the SCOTUS or the next President in a few months.
The America haters are hooting and leaping in joy over this.
Where is congress on this?
Everyone needs to call their congressman regarding this!!!!
Thank God Obama finally found some damn SPINE and smashed the Republican anti immigrants in the face! He should have done this 3 years ago and I know he is doing it only so he can win Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico BUT at least he is doing the RIGHT thing for a change. The Congress needs to pass AMNESTY now and if they won't, Obama should go around them and use his executive powers to implement hope and change.
Excellent move. We've got a Congress broken severely by ignorant, small-minded GOP bigots. Another historic move by this great President.
This post emulates what is exactly wrong with citizenry in this country. When Congress won't pass a law you like, just hope the President issues an order to pass the law.

It is funny. Obama takes Rubio's "Dream Act" idea and makes it an Exec Order. Now, what do Romney and the equally weak minded GOP leadership do ... damned if they support, damned if they don't.

This has nothing to do with law and everything to do with buraucratic rules enacted for political expediency.
