Obama issues Dream Act by executive order…press ignores

On Friday, the Obama administration issued a memo announcing that federal immigration officials do not have to deport illegal aliens if they are enrolled in any type of education program, if their family members have volunteered for U.S. military service, or even if they are pregnant or nursing.

This new policy of “prosecutorial discretion” was quietly announced on Friday afternoon, and completely ignored by the mainstream press.

WHAT?? He passed the Dream Act by EXECUTIVE ORDER?? Just like that wacko in CA told him to??? And it isn't even big news?? I'm so angry. Can't STAND this president!!!!! What's next, by executive order?? The Fairness doctrine by another name?? Internet censorship for "security" Sure.. get them all in state tuition, then give them all FAFSA grants, and let's not forget our friend affirmative action to push them to the top of the pile. We have to get this guy out of office. He's much more interested in other countries and other people than he is in Americans.

If your voting base is moving away from you I guess you have to find another one.

do not have to deport illegal aliens if they are enrolled in any type of education program, if their family members have volunteered for U.S. military service, or even if they are pregnant or nursing.

I'm surprised that he didn't inclued: Or if your already receiving welfare. After all it would be a shame to waste all that paperwork they had to buy.

I wonder if the military will give them preference?? Lots of young AMERICANS love the military. Heck, my son-in-law just renewed his contract with the Army Reserves. He LOVES it. He was going to go full Army then the baby came so they decided on Reserves for now. I hope kids like him won't be shoved aside for illegals. I'm so disgusted.

And I guess the millions of illegals who were given free and clear, all out amnesty by Ronald Reagan were called "undocumented republicans" huh?

Let's not overlook the necessity of massive voter fraud as the ONLY hope for Obama in 2012. Of course, I doubt at this point that it'll be the squeaker they'd need to pull that off- but as the author of the "President for Life" warning, I can't dismiss the possibilities...

You can't deport those 12 million warm bodies you need to rig the election.

Sounds like you are already setting up the "explanation" if Obama wins again.

PBP I am having trouble visualizing how a legal or an illegal alien could vote. Last I knew only citizens could vote. A legal alien has to be in the country at least 5 years before they can apply for citizenship. So, how do you think giving some illegal aliens the right to stay in the US will result in Obama rigging an election?

Unfortunately, they sometimes do vote. I used to teach English to adults, many of whom were illegal immigrants. In a conversation about illegal immigration, a couple of them admitted to voting in local elections. CA does not require I.D to vote. I am Salvadorian and speak Spanish, so my students felt comfortable telling me quite a lot about their illegal alien circumstances. I learned a lot of disturbing information which has made me the strong opponent of illegal immigration that I am today.

Sweet, I thought of you the minute I saw this. I thought you would be really mad, just like I am, but you are talking about Reagan and smiling at high 5s? I'm surprised. Doesn't this make you angry at Obama? Especially since CA approved in state tuition and grants, loans, etc for illegals? He did what that CA nut politician said he should do, and we both said no way Obama would dare do that.. well, he did.

krickitt, I have told you many times, I will not vote for Obama again. This executive order is one of the reasons why. I am not surprised that he did this, I have heard he would do it. It was a matter of time. As for the Reagan thing, I will ALWAYS remind righties that republicans are just as guilty as democrats in the betrayal of America and Americans. I will not just let a rightie get away with insinuating that only democrats are pro illegals. It is a bi-partisan betrayal.

UHH, Sweet, I think everyone knows that. McCain is my Senator, remember?

[SweetVirginia]

I seem to have disappointed you a couple of times today krickitt. You have to remember that although I am anti illegal immigration, I am a progressive at heart so I voice my opinions and rebuttals to opposing(right-winged) views and comments. When you post negative comments regarding "liberals" I do not take it personal. I simply remind myself that you and I are complete opposites in our views and I simply try to overlook your comments so as to not let it get to me. I hope you can do the same.

Actually krickitt, not everyone does know that. It appears that mad dawg does not know that republicans are also pro illegals.

Okay, Sweet. Something is different. It doesn't feel like you and me today. Oh, well. Guess it really doesn't matter.

It does feel different, but to me it is because you are letting our differences get to you. I overlook your prods and jabs against liberals because I never wanted to lose the mutual respect we have always had for each other. If it does not really matter to you, than I will just end here by saying Im sorry if I upset you in any way. Did not mean to. Just being my progressive self.

This was not an executive order....it was a memo from Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) John Morton.

SO-- ICE, under Jan Nap, who is under Obama.. is this like using the EPA to sneak in cap and trade type stuff then? Same basic premise? If the people won't stand for it, just find a back door and do it any way?? Sounds like it to me.

Sure it is. And I'm not saying I agree with selective enforcement of the law. But this was still issued via ICE memo, not an executive order. Even Obama is smart enough not to leave that paper trail.

Why do we even have the pretense of a gov't by the people, for the people, etc?? They can appoint nuts during recess, make HUGE legal changes without votes, it's getting old. I will say the newly elected people at least seem aware that they were elected because people are ANGRY, and they seem to be trying to work for us. All I can think of is to keep cleaning house until this mentality is out of Washington, and hold any new people accountable for their behavior from here on. I don't just mean Dems, either, I mean ALL of these liars and sneaks that do things the people don't want. We need to throw these people out of office!!
Last night I stumbled on some message board thing that had a moderator that seemed educated and a bunch of yahoo illegals that couldn't even spell and had no grammar skills at all talking to this mod type person about how to get funding for college, how to sneak around the system, etc. There are a LOT of ways. No FAFSA, YET, but they are eligible for state grants in many states, and there are places like MALDEF (I hate them-- Tucson is over run with MALDEF, La RAZA types) That pay for illegals to go to college. Think of it-- money available only to illegals that meet MALDEF standards. VIVA LA RAZA!!!! Wish I had saved that message board. Think I found it googling "Can illegals get FAFSA grants?" Made me so mad I had to shut my comp down and watch cartoons with my granddaughter.
