Yes .. I can't wait to read your post when they try to secede, and return the land back to Mexico.

Will you support the Federal Governments agression to keep its land, .... or will you support the secessionist?? .. citing it was their land before it was the US's land?  Equal rights ... social justice ... and all that jazz.

No, no, no......

The seminoles will reclaim Florida, the Cherokee and Woodland much of the southeast.  We shall return to Englans and Black Americans to Africa.

Oh, gloat gloat. How very un-PC.

For that I'm reporting you to the "authorities" (you know who I mean), and will suggest to them that you be made to work for a month in Michelle Obama's organic White House garden of enforced communistic healthiness.

so all those young hispanics that are affected by this proposal are being bribed with a green card in order to vote for Obama?      Only U.S. citizens can vote in a federal election.    Registering or voting will result in deportation and kill any paperwork started for citizenship.

True, those most affected, unintentional illegales, won't vote for Obama, but others in their communities, will do so. And the recent presidential action will influence the voting.

And that's a good thing. It's building a constituency among people, not Goldman-Sachs.

"Beyond the pandering, beyond the politics, beyond the process is simple constitutional decency. This is out-and-out lawlessness. You had a clip of the president himself say months ago 'I cannot do this on my own because there are laws on the books.' Well, I have news for the president: The laws remain on the books, they haven't changed," syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer said on "FOX News" tonight.

"He proposed the DREAM Act of which the executive order is a variation. He proposed a DREAM Act. The Congress said no. The Congress is the one who makes the laws. What the administration does is it administers law. And in fact, what it's pretending to do is to use discretion, that's what the Homeland Security Secretary said," Dr. Krauthammer said.

"This is not discretion," he said. "Discretion is when you treat it on a one-by-one basis on the grounds of extenuating circumstances. This is the declaration of a whole new set of criteria, which is essentially resurrecting the legislation that the Congress has said no to." 

I will tell you the really bad thing about the reign of this president.

When the pendulum swings the other way, when he is out of power and if the repubs come into power, and use the 51 vote majority rule (slide laws in under reconciliation), when they begin to rule by fiat

you (the left on this board) will scream and jump up and down

and I will be there with you

we are losing it.

Little by little we are losing respect more and more on an ever escalating pace of our governing instituions.  Congress is held on the same or lower level than used car salemen, and I apologize to used car salemen everywhere.

The office of the president.

We went from a president who wouldnt take off his suitcoat in the oval office out of respect for it, to a president who had an affair in it, to president who totally holds the Constitution in contempt.

Our country is out of orbit.

Even though it is obviously a political move by the president to garner Hispanic votes, I still say good for him.  But the people better enjoy it whilst they can, because if and when Romney is elected, one of his first acts will be to rescind the measure.

Actually, his very first act will be to unzip his human skin.
