Amnesty without any border control is just a blanket acceptance of open borders.
Just what Obama and crowd want to be. Cover up the open borders question with amnesty that would bring them on in a steady line of illegals who know they will become legal when some President wants them to be legal.

As I said, forget the Constitution and send Congress home since we would have, effectively a dictator.

"Barack Obama is pretty consistently anti-immigration, whether legal, illegal, or barely legal. The Obama administration, for instance, has set deportation records of illegals (almost 300,000 in 2009, a 5 percent bump from the previous year), his Labor Department is making it tougher for farmers to (legally) hire temporary workers, and he's pushing to hike fees on virtually every aspect of the processing of visas, forms, you name it."

Deportation records, hmmm.

imagine the illegals coming in like the great gold rush. Junky jalopies teetering with offspring, and mattresses. Drunken yahoos firing guns into the air...
belch....burp....Yikes. A nightmare scenario. Someone wake me up.....

This is not W. Obama and the other Dem's don't do Executive Orders to attempt to shred and bypass the Congress.

Just because it's something Republican's and the ultra neo-con's here would do, doesn't me it is something other people would do.

Default Just another way to buy votes

He may want it to appear he is anti illegal immigrants, but his actions indicate otherwise.

The Feds say it is against the law for companies to hire illegals, but then turn around and say that illegals have a right to a fair wage.

Obama Labor Chief: Illegals Have a Right to Fair Wages | The FOX Nation

Obama wants to see these immigrants legalized for a number of reasons, but he wants it done under a new name: Immigration reform. Comprehensive reform, no less.

Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America. But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security, and how do you suppose these people will vote?

If the employer has to pay the same wage, southward, then why hire an illegal immigrant and run all that risk?

Get it?

Though I completely see how you wouldnt right away, with that deliberately misleading headline from Fox Nation.

Also, that's a lie about free health care for illegal immigrants.

As for the realities of Obama and II, "Is Obama Anti-Immigrant? Most Signs Point to Yes"

With no action, such a decision would precipitate states actively pursuing secession.
But if he were then impeached or removed, would that reverse what he had already done? How would it all work? What a mess!
