“Until we pass a law through Congress, the executive actions we’ve taken are not going to be permanent; they are temporary. There are going to be some jurisdictions and there may be individual ICE official or Border Control agent not paying attention to our new directives. But they’re going to be answerable to the head of Homeland Security because he’s been very clear about what our priorities will be,” Obama said, according to a partial transcript provided by the pool reporter.Obama's word is now law. Some Law professors agree and some disagree.
“Not only are we going to have to win this legal fight.. but ultimately we’re still going to pass a law through Congress. The bottom line is I’m using all the legal power invested in me in order to solve this problem.”
“If somebody’s working for ICE … and they don’t follow the policy, there’s going to be consequences to it.”
I wanted to cut a pertinent juicy clip of the c-span video, but, as Chip mentioned last night, I'm on limited internet capabilities. Video eats up too much bandwidth.

Well, Republicans took impeachment off the table so of course Obama is going full dictator. What good will the 2nd amendment, the last line of defense be when there's no ammo? Well, Obama's banning bullets by exec action NOW.
OR ELSE!!! Guess what or else means in the Obama Administration? A raise and a promotion. He's got two years left, it's full metal peddle to the mettle marxist on the dictator train WOOO-WOOO!!!
It's only a question of how far Obama himself deems too far.
This tweet quoting somebody at Red State is quite apt...
“[I]f you start out by telling them how far you’re willing to go, they will start there."
Prediction: Sudden progressive enthusiasm about capital punishment. Hey, it's not so bad!
It also seems that the people who could object, the so called Wise men, the people with gravitas, are either dead or too scare shitless to speak out.
Except for professor Turley, the objection sphere is quiet as the tomb.
