President Ignores Democratic Process
Amidst accusations of scandal with fast and furious and security leaks, bad economic recovery, and poor polling results Obama has come out with his latest political stunt. In an effort to draw attention away from his many problems and drum up support from the hispanic community our former Constitutional Law Professor turned President has anounced that he alone is changing the immigration policy without congressional approval. Declaring that this is not an amnisty or immunity program Obama has secured a two year reprieve for illigal immigrants under the age of 30, just long enough for him to be re-elected, because he says it's the "right thing to do".
It is a sad day for American democracy when the president can arbitrarily change laws because he deems it the "right thing to do". Regardless of which side of the debate you fall on, every American should be outraged at this blatant disregard of government procedure. You must ask yourself, where does it end? If one president is allowed to simply declare something that is in direct contrast to the laws of this country what kind of precident are we starting?
