Further proof, as if we needed any, that we now find ourselves up to our armpits in what is yet another election season is the fact that Barry "Almighty", our ‘Dear Beloved Leader’, has now launched what’s being called an ‘internal review’ on how he can better provide additional leniency to illegal aliens inside the United States of America. So apparently we must now be kinder and gentler in how we go about sending those who are here ILLEGALLY, back to their nation of origin.
When Barry promised back in 2008 that his would be the most transparent administration in history, I’m assuming here that most people didn’t realize that what he was really talking about was being transparently political. Because that’s all this move is really all about, trying to garner as many votes as possible for the Democrats who just might wind up losing control of the Senate in just a few short months. And I’m sure that this is just the beginning of the antics that we’re likely to be seeing.
Barry’s little announcement that he would seek to grant more executive amnesty to illegal aliens came after he met with three Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) members on Thursday -- CHC chairman Rep. Ruben Hinojosa and Reps. Luis Gutierrez and Xavier Becerra. Hispanic lawmakers have complained vociferously of late about the number of deportations executed by Barry’s administration. Such behavior makes it pretty obvious that these characters are not living up to the oath they took.
In speaking of this idiotic meeting, a readout of what took place was released by the White House that actually said, "The president emphasized his deep concern about the pain too many families feel from the separation that comes from our broken immigration system." What a bunch of political bullshit! But then, this is the exactly the kind of tripe that we have come to expect from Barry. It demonstrated a willingness to do whatever is necessary if it might gain a few Democrat votes.
A Senate GOP aide made the point that these concerns are really overblown because roughly two-thirds of what the amnesty advocacy community is considering deportations are actually removals of people caught as they were trying to cross the border. And Secretary of Homeland Defense Jeh Johnson essentially admitted as much in a recent congressional hearing. So it should make it all the more obvious that Barry’s new approach here is nothing but typical politics, pure and simple.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which is the law enforcement agency that handles deportations from the nation’s interior, reports that 98 percent of 2013 deportations were of convicted criminals, people who just crossed the border, or people who illegally re-entered the U.S. after being deported before. So if this is in fact the case, I guess Barry would like it much better if we were to just turn a blind eye to those poor unfortunate souls and simply allow them to remain.
Barry kicked off 2014 by asserting his executive powers, infamously saying he has a pen and a phone that he plans to use if Congress does not move forward on his agenda. For the last nearly year and a half, since the 2012 presidential election, Barry has pressured Congress to grant amnesty to illegal aliens. The White House worked with the Senate’s bipartisan, four Democrats plus four RINO, "Gang of Eight" to write an immigration bill that passed the Senate but stalled in the House.
Barry has also tried to pressure the House to move on immigration, and after a recent meeting with the president, Speaker ‘Bonehead’ Boehner said the issue they agreed on most was immigration. Gee, big surprise there, right? Even so, it was a majority of the House GOP conference that very vocally stood up against granting legal status to illegal aliens, and massively increasing legal immigration, during this extended period of high unemployment in America.
Let’s face it, we now have in this country estimated 50.5 million working age, bona fide Americans who are now either officially unemployed or not working, but want to work. And yet, Barry and his merry band of liberal/progressive/communist Democrats seek to flood a sluggish job market that’s already in sad shape, with millions of illegal immigrants? Now I ask you, how much sense does that really make? And why, if not for political reasons, would anyone WANT to do that?
And it was in that summer of 2012, and just before the presidential election I might add, that Barry announced in the White House Rose Garden, with then Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano standing by his side, something called the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which granted executive amnesty to so-called DREAMer illegal alien minors. And that too, I think it pretty safe to assume, was a move made purely out of politics.
And it is said that any additional executive action now would very likely infuriate House Republicans, even those who are in favor of moving forward with amnesty. For instance, House Majority Leader, and bona fide RINO, Eric Cantor, who supports granting legal status to illegal aliens, criticized the administration’s non-enforcement of immigration laws in an addendum to a 2012 report he released on Thursday. But Cantor is just one more who is far from being able to be trusted!
So, like I said in the beginning, with this being an election year it is virtually guaranteed that, whether we’re talking about Obamacare, immigration, extended unemployment benefits or any number of other politically sensitive issues, I’m quite sure that we will see Barry, and the Democrats, pulling out all the stops in an effort to salvage Democrat control of the Senate. And I guess the only question that remains would be one that asks whether the American people, or enough of them, will actually buy it.
