Just Another Day in Post-Constitutional America

The Dictator-in-Chief is at it again: Obama Amnesty Begins: Halts Deportations for 300,000 Illegal Aliens; Offers ‘Work Permits’
 
Alternate headline: “Obama Adds 300,000 New Voters to Dems’ Registration Rolls”
This is a total travesty!
 
OK class, repeat after me:

Congress enacts the laws; the Executive Branch enforces the laws.
The Executive Branch doesn’t get to pick and choose which laws it enforces or we end up with lawlessness.

 
Which is exactly where we’re headed. From Stand With Arizona:
 

The Obama Administration today announced a virtual amnesty-by-decree for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens, whose deportations will be “indefinitely delayed”. In addition, Obama finally announced a jobs program – but for ILLEGAL ALIENS, not citizens – as those 300,000 illegals will also become eligible for “work permits“.
 
This action represents an administrative end-run around Congress, which twice rejected the ‘DREAM Act’ in 2010. As disgraceful as is this usurpation of Congressional authority, this announcement is even worse than is being reported.
 
Our analysis reveals that – despite media focus of this action limited to so-called “Dreamer” illegal students, this new policy, coupled with the criteria established by the June 2011 “Morton Memos” which set up a joint “DHS and DOJ working group” could expand this “indefinite delay” of deportation to potentially MILLIONS of illegals – creating a new, massive amnesty entirely by fiat, bypassing Congress.

 
FAIR (Federation for American Immigration Reform) President Dan Stein
had this to say:

This step by the White House amounts to a complete abrogation of the president’s duty to enforce the laws of the land and a huge breach of the public trust. … In essence, the administration has declared that U.S. immigration is now virtually unlimited to anyone willing to try to enter — and only those who commit violent felonies after arrival are subject to enforcement.”

 
Couldn’t jam the DREAM Act through – instead we get this NIGHTMARE!
