The new WH press secretary speaking on immigration.
Signing laws created in congress IS THE JOB, sluggo. You are commander in chief of the armed forces, NOT LAW WRITER IN DEFAULT OF CONGRESS FULFILLING YOUR WISHES
During an interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest explained that the Obama administration was getting impatient with Congress.“[W]e’re not just going to sit around and wait interminably for Congress,” he explained. “We’ve been waiting a year already. The president has tasked his Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson with reviewing what options are available to the president, what is at his disposal using his executive authority to try to address some of the problems that have been created by our broken immigration system.”Earnest added that, although Obama was exploring executive action, it was “not a substitute for robust Congressional action” on immigration reform.“That’s why we’re trying to focus on getting that done,” he concluded.
Obama has been heavily criticized after his 2012 executive decision to defer the deportations of some young illegal immigrants, which critics argue was a key incentive for more children to cross the border illegally.
Where are we headed with these executive actions?
SCOTUS, you people listening in?
If the executive, in the only office we all vote for overreaches, every one of us should have standing

Yes, the Supremes finally found their collective cojones and ruled against him on the "recess" appointments.
FEMA camps, the purchase of massive amounts of ammunition by federal agencies now come to the proper perspective. They come into the country, we go into the camps.
Truly, our only hope is a first for this country: impeach ALL involved, and find some constitutional way to get our of this mess. It will not be pretty, and it will probably not take place. My big question, like in any Third World country, on what side will the armed forces be? They are usually conservative, but the administration took care of cleaning up non-supportive high ranking officers. What will the troops do? It might be much worse than the Civil War....
