Executive Amnesty: Will We Allow One Man to Fundamentally Transform America?

By Lloyd Marcus

After six years of putting up with his eldest son actively working with those crazy racist white folks in the Tea Party against the first black president, my 86-year-old black dad has finally begun to understand why.
A lifelong Democrat, Dad contributed to the GOP shocking victory in Maryland by voting Republican in the 2014 midterm. It has taken me six years to convince Dad that conservatism is much better for everyone than liberalism. Dad is old-school, with basic beliefs. Democrats are for the working-class little guy. Republicans are for the rich. Oh, and Republicans are also racists.
So you can imagine the challenges I faced trying to re-educate him. Dad believed that the Tea Party was racist because he heard it on CNN. I said, “Dad, I travel the country on the Tea Party Express tour bus. And they allow me to sit up front. However, I prefer riding in the back, because there is a large TV back there, and I can watch all the football games.” Dad chuckled.
I know what you are thinking: Lloyd, why haven't you turned your dad on to Fox News? I have tried. I do not know why he rejects Fox and conservative talk radio. Still, I am working on it, folks. I am working on it.
With the biased MSM as his main news source, Dad is a low-info voter. I have been working on Dad, educating him one issue at a time. Dad is a good guy, warm and compassionate. I am trying to get him to use his common sense and instincts for right and wrong rather than getting caught up in the Democrats' and MSM's emotional, manipulative spin on issues.
We chatted about illegal immigration. Dad has been a Christian pastor for over 50 years. He is still the pastor of four churches; driving several miles to visit the sick and shut-ins.
“Dad, remember when Mom used to get annoyed at people who used you and your church?” Dad chuckled. I do not recall Dad ever turning away anyone in need.
Mom was frustrated with people who did not want to contribute in any way to Dad's ministry – never attending a single service or listening to a sermon. All they were interested in was the freebies available at the church: food, clothing, and so on. They wanted Rev. “My-cus-sin” (Marcus) – never did get his name right – to perform their weddings and funerals for free. They expected Dad to show up at their homes or hospitals in the middle of the night in times of crisis, despite never once setting foot in Dad's church. Still, Dad faithfully did it all. He was functioning on a higher level – the level of God's love.
I told Dad that the illegals flooding across our borders have the same we're-just-here-to-take mindset that frustrated Mom. They do not want to assimilate. Heck, they could not give a rat's derrière about what it means to be an American. Illegals proudly fly their Mexican flag and are offended when our kids wear American flag t-shirts to school on Cinco de Mayo. Illegals receive entitlements unavailable to U.S. citizens. They have no desire, nor is there a pressing need for them, to learn English.
While liberals claim that poor humble illegals are quaking in their boots “hiding in the shadows,” illegals are boldly and arrogantly protesting in our streets, demanding entitlements and that they not be deported. Illegals claim a moral right to be in our country, while blatantly breaking and ignoring our laws.
The spin promoted from the bully pulpits of the MSM and White House is that anyone who does not turn a blind eye to illegals breaking our laws, making demands, and abusing our system is a hard-hearted racist.
Meanwhile, a mysterious polio-like illness has paralyzed 75 kids across America. The rare Enterovirus D68 is causing an outbreak across 45 states, sickening nearly 700 – mostly children. Illegal alien minors are also spreading dengue fever, swine flu, tuberculosis, and possibly Ebola. Obama's open border policy has delivered over 300,000 illegals; 75,000 of them are children who directly entered schools across America without proper examinations and so on.
It has been exposed that many of the illegals are gang members and drug dealers.
As inconceivable as this is to imagine, it does appear that one man, exploiting the historical aspect of his presidency to break the law at will, may be allowed to fundamentally transform America. Obama via executive order will grant amnesty to 5 million illegals, plus the 75,000 children who invaded our country and their parents.
If Republicans do not stop Obama's insanity, one characterless, out-of-control, arrogant, evil liar will fundamentally transform America. That is totally unacceptable.
Years ago, I wrote a satirical article to illustrate illegal immigration and how we are expected to deal with it. I was shocked that many people thought my fictional scenario was true. Their reaction spoke to how crazy, brain-dead, and emotion-driven the topic of illegal immigration has become, and what people think of our government.
In my parable, I came home to discover that a family had taken up residency in my backyard storage shed. Displaying remarkable arrogance and a sense of entitlement, the squatters refused to leave, arguing that they were simply seeking a better life. Their TV, computers, etc. were powered with an electrical cord plugged into the exterior outlet of my home.
Infuriated, I asked the police and City Hall to remove the trespassers from my property. Upon local government discovering the race of my invaders, I was accused of being selfish and cruel, and of using the law to hide my hateful racism. Suddenly, I began witnessing a migration of my trespassers' relatives and friends into my backyard, littering my property with tents, makeshift shelters, and old vehicles.
The city cited me for numerous code violations, which included all the dangerous electric cords and bizarre hook-ups into my electrical power source. I was ordered to immediately upgrade my electrical power to meet the needs of my current and potential new residents.
From that point in my imaginary tale, the pandering to my trespassers by my local government got even more outrageous. You get the idea. Folks, this is exactly what is happening in our national home, America. Illegals are showing up and making outrageous demands. The Obama administration is siding with them. The reality of the situation is just that simple.
Imagine Jeopardy game show host Alex Trebek saying, “The lawless man who fundamentally transformed America.” If we do not politically stop him, the correct Final Jeopardy question will be, “Who is Barack Hussein Obama?”

Executive Amnesty: Will We Allow One Man to Fundamentally Transform America?

By Lloyd Marcus

Yes Lloyd we will. Conservatives are weak. They have no stomach for the kind of knock down drag out street brawl (metaphorically of course) required to stop this president. The long gone mass demonstrations of the Tea Party that were polite, civil and cleaned up their mess is exactly representative of conservatives. Weak people who have no stomach for a real fight. Weak people always loose in a fight.

Watch Obama Admit That Obama’s Immigration Executive Order Is Illegal


November 19, 2014 By The Federalist Staff

Multiple news outlets have reported that President Barack Obama will announce his unprecedented executive power grab on immigration on Thursday evening. He’ll then head to Las Vegas to campaign for his initiative. Unfortunately for the president, who, by the way, refused to do anything on immigration when he and his party controlled every lever of power in Washington, a very powerful individual within his own party said that his new executive order power grab is illegal.
The name of that individual? Barack Obama.
In a 2011 town hall with the Univision network, Obama was directly asked whether he could use an executive order to halt deportations.
Here’s the clip of the question and Obama’s answer (a full transcript of the exchange is below):

UNIVISION: Mr. President, my question will be as follows: With an executive order could you be able to stop deportations of the students? And if that’s so, that links to another question that we have received through Univision.com. We have received hundreds, thousands, all related to immigration.

J. Tamar, through Univision.com told us, I’m reading: What if at least you grant temporary protective status, TPS, to undocumented students. If your answer is yes, when? If no, why not?

OBAMA: First of all, temporary protective status historically has been used for special circumstances where you have immigrants to this country who are fleeing persecution in their countries. Or there’s some emergency situation in their native land that required them to come to the United States. So it would not be appropriate to use that just for a particular group that came here primarily, for example, because they were looking for economic opportunity.

With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case. Because there are laws on the books that Congress has passed. And I know that everybody here at Bell is studying hard so you know that we’ve got three branches of government. Congress passes the law. The executive branch’s job is to enforce and implement those laws. And then the judiciary has to interpret the laws.

There are enough laws on the books by Congress that are very clear in terms of how we have to enforce our immigration system that for me to simply, through executive order, to ignore those congressional mandates would not conform with my appropriate role as president. That does not mean, though, that we can’t make decisions, for example, to emphasize enforcement on those who’ve engaged in criminal activity. It also doesn’t mean that we can’t strongly advocate and propose legislation that would change the law in order to make it more fair, more just, and ultimately would help young people who are here trying to do the right thing and whose talents we want to embrace in order to succeed as a country.

Obama’s answer is unequivocal. Here’s what he said: “With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case.” And followed that up with: “There are enough laws on the books by Congress that are very clear in terms of how we have to enforce our immigration system that for me to simply, through executive order, to ignore those congressional mandates would not conform with my appropriate role as president.”
Obama’s upcoming executive order on immigration is almost certainly illegal. How do we know? Because Obama told us so in 2011.
