Nice way the conservatives on this thread have on ignoring the fact that this kid had a parent that wanted him.
I'm having a hard time keeping up with what laws some people want us to follow and which ones we should just ignore "because".
Secondly, I surrender. This thread convinced me to become a Democrat right now because:
1) Me and mine are all highly skilled and don't compete with illegals for jobs so no wage pressure.
2) I get food and services like house painting, landscaping, etc. cheaper because of illegals.
3) The most beautiful women in the world are latina.
4) I've got over 1mil invested in corporations gaining from both the on and off shoring of labor. So I guess eff everyone else, I don't want to be a racist after all.
5) Screw poor americans, they're stupid, lazy, racists and deplorable for getting angry over 20 years or so of wage stagnation. Right?
6) There is no difference corporately\wallstreet\economically with Republicans anymore and I'm socially liberal so why not!
Well that answers that. Perhaps they should return to their country of origin and use the education they took from disadvantaged American children and figure a way to pay back the taxpayers.
Why didn't Obama put this in the executive order in the first place?
I am of the opinion that he never should have done the executive order to begin with, but basically, he had to make it extremely limited in scope due to potential lawsuits. As it is, I don't think it passes constitutional muster, but any more and it would have been quickly thrown out by courts.
Which is why it was just not a wise thing to do. Because it is so easily challenged in court, it had to be very narrow and limited. Which.... why bother then? It's benefiting such a small group of people. It just seems like Obama was virtue signaling. Which, you've already been re-elected, so again, why bother?

They're not ignoring them. You made that up because you don't have a leg to stand on. Going through the process doesn't put children at risk. That's caring.
