Obama, the gift that keeps on giving, has removed more Democrats from Congress, from Governor positions, and state government positions than anyone could ever have hoped to do. |

I remember hearing the same rhetoric when the TeaBaggers swept into office in the last midterm elections in 2010. The Right was giddy over their new found power.... What did they do with that power??? Not much except say NO NO NO! I hope this time they actually do something for the American Middle Class & Poor... but I doubt it. |

Ummm, that's like comparing laws passed by legislatures and how it should reflect what it did or did not do in its session. ..even though 50% of those could have been resolutions honoring the flower of the day... Ikes Executive Order 10834: Defined the design of the flag of the United States Thats carries a LITTLE less significance than one that essentially provides amnesty for 5 million illegal immigrants, allows them to apply for work permits, and tells the people that used the LEGAL immigration process to go pound salt and go to the back of the f'ing bus.... |

Box try telling the truth for once. You know darn well that Harry Reid tabled every bill the house Republicans sent to the Senate. I hope Obama keeps doing what he's now doing and there will be a Republican President in 2016 too. |

Two of the last three Republican presidents — Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush — did the same thing in extending amnesty to family members who were not covered by the last major overhaul of immigration law in 1986.

As it stands today, and we are a long way from the 2016 elections... Polls show Hillary beating every likely Republican presidential candidate. |

Hillary is nothing but Obama in a pant suitBy her own admission she is a progressive and I think this country has had enough of the progressives to last 50 years. |

Yes shadow... that is what YOU think. As I posted, as today, Hillary beats all GOP candidates. |

Huh! Executive orders are not exactly the same!!! Very observant! As was GHW Bush's “family fairness” plan which included "WORK PERMITS" called "work authorization" under Daddy Bush. |

"Executive action is a substitute for legislation, so the fundamental challenge of getting legislation passed through the Republican-controlled House remains the same." The White House appears to share this concern, having framed the president's pending action as something he does almost reluctantly in light of congressional inaction. Obama has said repeatedly that he would welcome a comprehensive immigration effort from Republicans. |

" Obama has said repeatedly .
He also said this: "I'm the President of the United States. I'm not the emperor of the United States. My job is to execute laws that are passed." |
