Quote from pspr:

More than 1.7 million illegal immigrants could become eligible for tentative legal status Wednesday when President Obama’s non-deportation policy goes into effect, and after initial fears that the program would backfire, immigrant advocates are urging young immigrants to sign up.


http://www.washingtontimes.com/news...e=all#pagebreak



“And to the millions of potential immigrants who are doing things the right way and waiting in line, this is what you get for obeying the law. Another slap in the face with a reward to those who jump to the front of the line and push you out of the way. If movie theaters, sports venues and concerts ran this way nobody would bother buying a ticket. Simply overrun the entrances and claim a seat without obeying the rules or paying your way. Then claim you are a "fact on the ground" and demand that you be allowed to remain. Those who stand in line and buy tickets will be locked out.”

Brandon Judd, Border Patrol Agent

This is one brave woman. She's fighting this battle nearly all by herself. It's a disgrace that the republican party leadership isn't all over this.

Quote from AAAintheBeltway:

Has Romney objected? Or are he and the republican insiders too frightened of the hispanic voting bloc?

Obama has acted illegally. He doesn't have power to unilaterally repeal immigration laws. The House could retaliate, but that would require more stones than John Boehner apparently has. All they have to do is cut a huge chunk of money from one of Obama's programs and refuse to put it back.

The key though is the republican leadership should have gone ballistic the minute this edict came out. Instead, they cowered in their offices, afraid of offending hispanics. If they had declared war and made it clear it would not stand, they could have forced Obama tro back down and earned the respect of voters. Instead, by their cowardice, they handed Obama a big victory and managed to disgust their own base at the same time.



It is about appeasing the Latinos now.

This is why laugh with all the Nazi's get upset about black folk. Black folk are not your problem.

To be clear, you are not a Nazi, nor do I consider you racist.

Do not be Mittens and let this post push you further right, please.
