Janet Napolitano looks at granting amnesty to illegals without immigration reform legislation

July 29, 2010

  Just over a month ago, I wrote a post about a rumor that Barack Obama was planning to sign an executive order that would grant illegal immigrants amnesty if he was unable to get the 60 votes needed to pass a comprehensive immigration reform bill using conventional– and constitutional– means.

  It now looks as if I was wrong; Barack Obama is not planning to grant illegal aliens amnesty by using an executive order to bypass the constitution after all. BUT! Janet Napolitano is looking at ways to implement new immigration policy through Homeland Security that would grant illegal aliens amnesty without legislation ever being passed by the Congress and signed by the president.

  According to a memo that National Review Online found, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is looking at ways to use deferred action in order to grant groups of people amnesty. We all know what this means– amnesty will be granted to whoever the Obama regime sees fit.

  This news is as unwelcome as it is insidious!

    America does not need a government that rules by decree or proclamation. We do not need a government which is unwilling to listen to the will of the people. The Obama regime needs to learn that they work for us!

  The constitution sets up a clear procedure for passing laws. This regime either doesn’t understand that procedure or they do not care about it. The constitution was designed to ensure that power wasn’t concentrated in one branch of government– most notably the executive branch, but if this news is true, it is becoming obvious that the Obama regime is unwilling to live within the framework of the constitution.

  This regime is hell bent on passing amnesty for illegal aliens and they seem willing to do it without the Congress– and by proxy, the American people– having a true open and honest debate on the issue. And the reason for this is clear; when George W Bush tried to pass amnesty for illegal aliens the American people rose up and stopped the bill from becoming law, and they know that if we are allowed to voice our opinions we will stop this bill once again. The Obama regime can not have this, so instead of debating this issue, they are readying an attempt to declare amnesty for illegals by proclamation.

  The only thing that could possibly be worse than Congress passing comprehensive immigration reform against the will of the American people would be Barack Obama’s regime dictating to the American people amnesty policy without allowing the Congress to vote on it.

  We can not allow this to happen; if the Obama regime is allowed to get away with this, what the next proclamation be? If the Obama regime is allowed to get away with this then it doesn’t matter what happens in November because the Obama regime will just bypass all constitutional procedures in order to decree its will on the American people by dictate. OUR VOTE WILL MEAN NOTHING!

  So much for the “consent of the governed.”

    The Obama administration just wants to grant amnesty so they’ll have a slew of lifetime voters. It has nothing to do with making America better. In fact, by keeping liberals in power, it will make it worse.

    On a side note, I came across this blog by complete accident, but I really like what you’re all about. I think I’ll add this site to my blogroll. You have a lot of opinions I wholeheartedly agree with.

    By the way, you should check out some of Greg Gutfeld’s writings. He’s a humorous conservative commentator on Fox News. He’s at dailygut.com

    SON. OF. A. BITCH.

    That is likely the most disheartening thing I have ever heard, it will do several things to America, it will finish off the American tax payer and it could be the catalyst that sparks the next war, internal war, I refuse to call it *CIVIL*…

    Maybe next they can do away with term limits for the president (Amendment XXII) so Obama can be our dictator forever.

    “This regime either doesn’t understand that procedure or they do not care about it.”

    This regime most certainly does understand exactly what they are doing.

      Obama,already told everyone during his campaign how long he was going to be in office if you listen to what he was saying. He always said 5 years or 10 years never 4 or 8 years which are the term limits.He has no plan on leaving ,he is on a path of destroying our country ,he cares less what the american people think. Be ready for the hard times are coming. Its only going down hill with this administration and congress. HE IS YOU DICTATOR NOW

    Steve the left knows they are losing the Hispanic vote and I believe they think this is something that will not only get some of those votes back, but will also create a block of voters for a long time for the Democrats. What we need to do and inform these new voters that they’ll be trading one form oppression for another if they follow down the road of a free ride the Dems offer.

    Obama has no regard for our laws, he never has, never will. He stands in front of television cameras and makes statements to the effect, “I will tolerate…” Those are the words of a man who believes he answers to no one. He has no realization that we pay his salary, he cares nothing for what is good for this country, and he has done nothing to make improvements. I believe this coming November will be a bloody election, one like we have never seen before, but I also believe that the people will vote to get rid of this mess. And as was said earlier, it may not matter…as to war, many are already talking about it. Writing your congressman or woman, does little to no good, they simply reply as though nothing has been mentioned to concern them…they too, have their own agendas. We will have to take back our country because there isn’t anyone willing to do it for us. Obama has committed treason, he’s committed fraud, and he has committed the same calculated crimes that Blagovich is on trial for now. But no one has called him on it, no one has brought charges, and it seems all are oblivious but the people.

      He could do it in one term if we do not stop him in November. He is losing Hispanic votes and his hoping that this will get them back in line.

    HI STEVE:

    ” WE THE PEOPLE” will have to speak as loud as it takes.

    The misuse of the office of president as is being done by the current ELECTED office holder can not be allowed to stand. Cannot believe that executive privledge allows dictatorial actions such as we are witnessing.

    This November’s election will be very interesting. I do hope the election corrects in no uncertain terms this administration’s actions.

      I don’t think they’re claiming “executive privilege” for these actions, ‘cuz it wouldn’t fit. E.P. only allows the Prez (or others in the Exec. Branch) to resist subpoenas to either testify in court or yield physical evidence, like letters & recordings. But, they have to make a case that revealing such info would jeopardize national security or some such thing. (Was just reading a little about Watergate, today.)

    These kinds of moves worry and tick me off, too. But, I was wondering if SCOTUS would be able to rule such moves as unconstitutional. I think so. Of course, opponents would have to be prepared to move on this really quick to get it before the Court. Else, it would be like putting toothpaste back in the tube.

    Do you have any idea what’s going on in America? These illegals are really mess up. I live in a town name West new york, NEW JERSEY. And there are millions of these people in here, Mexicans and Salvadorians. They get drunk every weekend.The men pee on the streets in the open. And the streets are really dirty and smell.They have opened restaurants and when they come out they vomit on the streets. All you see are mexicans all over the place. They are not friendly and are really drunk drivers at night. So this is the way of life in West new york,NJ.And immigration doesn’t come in here!
