I have been working my ass off trying to wrap my head around this new job so I have been out of the loop as far as the latest on the political front. Just have not had the time. So the weekend is here and my saturday morning routine begins.
I retrieve my paper from the drive, retreat to the patio for a cup of coffee, light up a heater and begin reading the morning news. And what is the first thing that slaps me in the face, Obambam has issued another executive order to enact the portions of the Dream Act. I was stunned.
After reading through the article it is not amnesty, but so close that the next order coming out of this administrations ass will complete the amnesty process. It is pure and simply a political ploy to get him re-elected. To hell with the will of the American people. Fuck Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, and California, the states directly affected by this order.

Now, roll this around in your brain for a second. Let’s say you robbed a bank at 18…..got away with it….and 10 years later would be granted immunity from prosecution. How many 18 year olds would be robbing banks thinking that if are successful, just by waiting a few years there is the possibility they won’t have to worry about the consequences.
That is a simplistic theory, but how many mexicans who live in a shit hole of a country will now take the chance of crossing the border illegally under the premise that they too may be granted amnesty to stay.

We are going to see a massive surge in crossings just because Obama decided he needed to beef up his latino base to secure more votes for his re-election chances. The man has no sense of national security or what is best for the states that are directly effected by the order.
The man should be impeached and sent back to his Chicago ghetto from wince he came. The sooner the better for America.

Below is a summary of the “Executive Order” and what legal precedent it has. Note the bolded emphasis in the second paragraph. That say’s it all.
This order should be repealed or overturned by Congress NOW! Contact your senators and congressman immediately and turn up the heat. I did before writing this post.

 

In summary, the President’s authority to issue executive orders and proclamations is neither explicitly stated in the Constitution nor in statute. However, it is generally accepted that the President derives his authority to act from Article II of the Constitution. The President’s authority is primarily based upon the following language of Article II: “the executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States,” “the President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States,” and “he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”^[122]

Because the Framers of the Constitution left the question of executive authority open to interpretation, there has been much confusion and controversy since the first proclamation was issued by President George Washington.^[123] Although this confusion and debate persists, some clarifying guideposts have been developed. Youngstown has enlightened the situation by providing a tripartite standard which simply states three degrees of presidential authority in issuing executive orders and proclamations. Briefly stated, these three categories include executive orders and proclamations issued pursuant to: (1) an express or implied authorization of Congress (presidential authority is at its maximum); (2) are incompatible with the expressed or implied will of Congress, and thus rely solely upon his constitutional authority (presidential power is at its lowest ebb); and (3) undefined powers that lay in a “zone of twilight” (presidential power is uncertain). The judiciary has also expanded its examination of executive orders and proclamations to include a review of legislative history when necessary.

Other than relying upon the judiciary to determine the validity of executive orders and proclamations, Congress may also play a role. Congress may effectively oversee presidential action by amending or repealing legislation, retroactively, which authorizes the President to issue executive orders or proclamations. Congress may propose a constitutional amendment which would remove a particular power from the President. Finally, where Congress is silent, and the President has acted, Congress may legislate to either support or derail such action unless that action is firmly based on exclusive constitutional authority.
