Tomorrow, President Obama is expected to announce his next illegal abuse of prosecutorial discretion. He plans to open up U.S. jobs to 5 million or more foreigners who have overstayed their U.S. visas or entered the country illegally. Like his illegal action on “Dreamers”, Obama will be creating new categories of exemptions from deportation that do not exist in current law. His sworn duty as President is to faithfully execute the law, he would be failing to perform his duty. Obama himself has said multiple times that such action by the President regarding illegal immigration would be illegal. “With respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case…. 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 ignore those congressional mandates would not conform with my appropriate role as president.” ~ March 28, 2011, interview with Univision. Then again Sept. 28, 2011, at the Hispanic Roundtable at the White House: “I just have to continue to say this notion that somehow I can just change the laws unilaterally is just not true. We are doing everything we can administratively. But the fact of the matter is there are laws on the books that I have to enforce. And I think there’s been a great disservice done to the cause of getting the DREAM Act passed and getting comprehensive immigration passed by perpetrating the notion that somehow, by myself, I can go and do these things. It’s just not true…. We live in a democracy. You have to pass bills through the legislature, and then I can sign it.”
