xxxooo, Mitt has gone into the Mittness Protection Program!!

India Seamus on you!

he is on record at least 4 times that i've seen with him saying "I can't do it...our system doesn;t work like that...it's not legal"...so now has he admittedly committed a crime??? with the spineless Boehner in charge, nothing will come from this, of course...Congress will do nothing...it will be up to us to get King Obama out of office, before he decides 2 terms aren't enough...

Ha hahahaha -- Firestorm-Firestorm !!!!! Pooof !!! President Obama - Did NOT Use Executive Order On This !!!!

what authority did he use then??? there is no congressional plan for this...or at least, none that has been passed...is he just choosing to ignore the law on the books now? wouldn't that be, by definition, criminal activity??

"hmmm....i don't like the whole law about stopping at red lights and not speeding...I'll ignore it"...i wonder how well THAT would go over???

He used the authority GWB gave Homeland Security to make the decision.

CATT = What = the Congress Wont Allow Anything !!!! Besides the congress is on Another 5 week Vacation !!!! As Our President has Stated - This Is A Temporary Fix for Jobs Only - Not to be able to Vote - But for Jobs ONLY !!!!

The new guidelines, which were not approved by Congress, will reportedly prevent younger illegal immigrants from being deported if they meet a specified set of guidelines laid out by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

This is a difficult balance to strike, one that this new policy, imposed by executive order, will make harder to achieve in the long run.

Today’s announcement will be welcome news for many of these kids desperate for an answer, but it is a short term answer to a long term problem. And by once again ignoring the Constitution and going around Congress, this short term policy will make it harder to find a balanced and responsible long term one.”

In making it harder to deport, the Obama administration is in essence employing the same eligibility requirements spelled out in the proposed DREAM Act.

so, an end around, around a congressional act, and one that was done by E.O....all of it adds up to trouble...and NONE of you are upset by it??? but i bet if BUSH had done it, you'd be SCREAMING about his violating congress???

btw- you'd be RIGHT to scream in that case...youa re WRONG not to in this one...

CATT = What = the Congress Wont Allow Anything !!!! Besides the congress is on Another 5 week Vacation !!!! As Our President has Stated - This Is A Temporary Fix for Jobs Only - Not to be able to Vote - But for Jobs ONLY !!!!

Democrat Senate, MD/MI...remember that...and besides- why didn't Obama do it when he had the house AND senate???

a temporary fix for jobs only...for now...and when the ACLU files a lawsuit on behalf of these new tax payers- "They can pay taxes, but they can't vote!!!!"...what then??? won't the "right thing to do" be to grant them voting rights??? its another step- another progressive step- towards outright amnesty...

also- this is to a limited group of people...what about the person who is here, who was brought by their family, but they are still a minor??? or a young adult??? they won't deport the family, because the child will need their "support system"...so now it extends from the kids who were brought here to the parents that brought them here...

slippery slope, my friend...

http://www.chacha.com/question/how-many-executive-orders-did-george-w.-bush-sign

again, with the George Bush standard??? I thought Bush was so awful...if he was so bad, why does Obama want to do the same things Bush did??? i thought he was supposed to be different...but instead, since Bush did it, it makes it okay???

There Is a difference - dubya did it because he Wanted To --- Prez. Obama Is FINALLY doing it Because he Has No other Alternative BUT To Use It !!!! Record Filibusters Ring a Bell ?????

CATT, No, no, no, It is Romney who is doubling down on the failed Bush policies.

It is your party who follows the dictates of a Russian, Jewish atheist named Ayn Rand.

ok Catt, reading over your comments, Obama is no better than Bush. in other words.....Bush was no good....oh my ribs.

let's see the orange man is no good cause he won't bring Obama up for charges.....hey we agree half way.....the orange man is no good!

soooo.....your teapubs are at fault right? they just don't have no huevos to do it your way.....hmmm.....maybe a new recycle tea party candidate is needed hmmmmm? oh ya....forgot....what's left of republicans said they would rather have someone closer to Obama's policies than a tea party idiot!

ya see....the tea party has the dream act tooo....a right wing radical pres candidate....but....normal republicans said no to that remember.

Romney is doin just fine....a couple more mush mouths statements and republicans voters will give up out of disgust knowing there are no republicans anymore that can act like Reagan..........

sounds like Dictators all through History- "I only did it because I HAVE to"...

Hitler, when he had his SA leaders killed- "I only did it to save Germany from internal uprising"...Ceasar Augustus- "I only made myself Ceasar because Congress wasn't working"...Emperor Palpatine- "I only created the first Galactic Empire because the Jedi wouldn't do as I said"...

"NEEDING" to use that power is a problem...a much worse one...because now, what's to stop him from declaring need on ANYTHING??? for that matter, what's to stop Romney from doing it???

Our system is SUPPOSED to be tough...its supposed to be hard to get things done...it was designed that way on purpose, to stop any one branch from having too much power...this is exactly what happens in dictatorships...the leaders- Bush, Obama- consolidate power at the top out of "Need"...right now, the "needs" agree with your line of thinking...they may not come November...and THEN what happens??? the precedent has been set...you won't be able to complain about ROmney overturning this, because he will feel the "Need" to do it...

India-

good day...remember- it's not my party...I am not a Republican...I am a small government conservative...I am against the big government progressives on BOTH sides...

there IS another path in all this...its not jsut "Obama or Bush"...thats like saying "do you want red or greem M&M's", when the bag also has blue, yellow, orange and brown??? we are being force fed choices...Bush and Obama are 2 sides of the SAME coin- both were/ are "consolidate power at the top" big government guys...

i stand by that...not a fan of Boehner...Bush was Obama-lite...his spending was awful, Obama's is worse...Bush actually spent more on education than he did on Iraq, and that irks me to no end...Boehner is gutless...

well Catt....wasn't to hard for the GOP to pursue a small depression was it? the only thing they find hard is that they can't fool everyone all the time. well some of us huh?

Catt....your somethin.....compromise is consolidating dictatorships. don't worry so much......the GOP ain't never gonna consolidate with Obama. that's why you gots to vote democrat across the board. to protect our freedoms from the Koch types onslaughts.....oh my ribs

vote democrat across the board??? so only have one view represtented??? only 1 way of thinking??? then isn't that "My way or the highway"??? isn't that, by definition, "single party rule"???

we had that in 2008-2010. apparently, America wasn't real happy with that!!!

Obama acting unilaterally is NOT compromise!!! its the OPPOSITE of compromise...its mandating "I can't work with the system, or the system won't work with me, so I am declaring it MY way"...can't you see that as a problem, for EITHER party to do???

and again, just because the GOP did it, doesn't make it right...Bush had a lot of faults...his spending was one of the biggest...but he was a big government guy... he consolidated power at the top...same as Obama is doing...

you are still stuck in the "D" vs. "R" game...the traditional game is over...its a shell game...you are believing that these are our only options...they are offering us "Big government" and "Bigger government"...our country was founded on small government...we are so far afield of where we need to be...and they keep feeding you the same "D" vs. "R" crap...and youa re gobbling it up...that's bad for aching ribs...

CATT - Its a Funny about "GANGS/MOBS" ---- When they are all together in a group - They think that they are Invincible -- When you Seperate Them - they act all innocent and Gutless - the Big Trouble Is , is that They Have Big Money Behind them and that Is The Downfall of America these days !!!!

agreed MD/MI- and its controlling BOTH parties...which is 1 reason why i choose not to affiliate with either party...

Catt...quit picking on Bush. let's go to the Vader. now he's prime rib of the GOP along with all them thar other neocons.

think Romney will have neocons and a Vader?

CATT - I can/do Respect that !!!!

But - What I cannot understand is - Why Anyone that Isnt a Millionare - Would support this Phoney Regular Kinda-guy - that Only has his Sights On the Wealthy and the Corporations !!!!!

all right Catt....neither party.....hey hey hey....remember when all them tea slugs was debatin? they had all the answeres remember and the Romn was a ghost in the background.....ain't changed much has he.

well then there is Obama. now this pres has really tead off the right. you know what that means don't ya? means he ain't in lock step with the Koch's and the orange man.....hey hey hey. that alone makes Cantor and Ryan squirm. my kinda of pres.

one that can take a stand......................

But - What I cannot understand is - Why Anyone that Isnt a Millionare - Would support this Phoney Regular Kinda-guy - that Only has his Sights On the Wealthy and the Corporations !!!!!

i admit its a risk backing Romney...he's not exactly my top choice...but i believe- maybe falsely- that he is a Capitalist first, and a believer in the freee market. not to the extent I'd LIKE him to be, but he had his success through private industry. that is what will save this country- small businesses, NOT bigger government. he is a good man of high moral character...he may not be the most "personal" guy around, but we have a "Personal" president now, who in my opinion, is a complete joke.

I admit there are some things I don't know about ROmney...but here is what i DO know about Obama: He thinks the free market is a joke. he thinks capitalism is bad. he was raised believing that marxism/ communism is the way to go, and he pursued those ideals his whole life (his words). he thinks he is above the law, and above congress, and above everyone. he is NOT a fan of the Constitution- a BIG one for me. he believes that energy prices need to "skyrocket" (his words)...all of those add up to the worst possible choice ever, for me.

i may not be able to relate to Romney's wealth, but just on those principles, I am 100% opposed to Obama's, and somewhat in line with Romney...now, he could end up being a big government progressive as well...all GOP Presidents in the last 60 years have been (Except Reagan). but its a risk I am willing to take, given the complete disaster of my other choice.

CATT = LOL - Prez. Obama Is a Constitutional Scholar - That Is What He Studied - Where Do you Come up with THIS ??????

The ONLY thing that robMe Ever Studied was Mormonism - as he Dodged the Draft of the Vietnam War - of which - his Daddy Footed the bill and sent him an Allowance !!!!!

now ya done it Catt....ya just had to bring up the tax man Reagan that Jeb said wouldn't fit in todays GOP along with his pops another tax man.

corps and top are taxed so much they have to hide their money offshore. after deductions of course. it's so bad here for em that they are trippin over themselves moving out and givin up their citizenship(especially if they start the draft again).

be honest Catt. what do you think Reagan would of thought of this crowd and would he have called them patriots?

this is the crowd that Romney represents. no thanks..............

you can be a constitutional scholar and still not like it...in fact, that is what a lot of people do- study something, so they understand it, but then find flaws with it...

where do I come up with it??? he calls it a "charter of negative liberties"...those are HIS words...

hesback-

Reagan would be disgusted with this crop of progressive republicans...guys like McCain, Boehner, Lindsay GRaham...all of these big government guys wouldn't accept Reagan's small government conservatism. i don't know if he would have called them Patriots...that's not the issue. but he certainly would have been at odds with many of them, as am I...and for Jeb Bush to say that proves my point...he's a progressive, from a family of Progressives...the diseease that has infected BOTH parties...Progressivism was started by a "Republican"- Teddy Roosevelt...the first to say "Government should certianly be more of the solution"....and with the exception of a few, its been all progressives in both parties...

CATT - Dont get yur panties in a Bunch - Brah - Ha haaaa !!!! With All of the new Amendments - It IS Becoming Contradictive !!! ----------- And that Is What Happens when someone studies something - they find the Flaws and attempt to Rectify them !!! I Have heard that the Prez. Said that - but I have Not Heard Him Say That - myself !!!

CATT The fact is that Obama is NOT a big spender and has shrunk government from where it was when he took office.

Check it out.

well Catt you ain't got much respect for the GOP, I can see that.

ok, so Teddy don't live up to your standards either. hmmm....nothin pleases you.

except the Romney.....hmmm....progressive.....hmmm....big gov.....hmmm.

oh....I get it.....taxes were ok with Reagan.....mandates by Romney are ok....so long as they are mandates you approove of....and backed by the GOP

regulation is only needed if they are used against people....abortion and so on, you know....that nasty vagina stuff.

what was that stuff about consolidation.....who's consolidation is better than the other guys consolidation?

Romney's consolidation is different than the GOP???????????????

it seems your views are very one sided. no room to even consolidate.

Good grief, Six.

well I didn't know it was communism to want protections for air breathing human Americans.....oh my ribs.....

oh....protections for corporations and outsource corps by the right in congress is not a state run policy.....hmmm....China does damn good huh six? they have corporate marxism.....Che would have shot himself if he was alive today what you call marxist.....oh my ribs.............

India I don't see Charlie anywhere so Scott will have to do! Good grief indeed!

Our friend has been into the toxic talk circuit. I cannot believe he believes that!

So, OUST, In other words, you're a rich white guy who wants his taxes lowered?

Hey MD/MI. Or an Oligarchy, for sure. That's here already, thanks to Citizens United. We have enormous problems, for sue, and Mitt will make them worse with his draconian policies.

How is the weather in MI? The Pirates are home here tonight in PGH and it is 94 degrees. It is so hot the robins look like they're gonna pass out. They're living in the bird bath! I hung sheets out today and in an hour they were dry. I dread July!

The extremes I've seen here in the past few years are a scary harbinger of things to come. The GOP put off dealing with climate change and now it is probably too late. We did not have a single snowfall in W. PA (where I live) this past winter.

Hey India - It Hit 95 here today - Woooo !!!

He walks like someone who's wearing ice skates for the first time.

Why Davey Crockett, XXXOOO?

He is on thin mental ice that's for sure!

Crockett because he was a man of his word and died doing what he believed in. He didn't just go along with the pack and was a strong individualist about standing up against those things he did not support. He wasn't driven by greed and believed in equality for all.
