*cough, cough* Uh,
Doofie was right.
Dammit! Now I need another shower.

If Obama had changed the enforcement policy quietly as you suggest, he would have lost the political advantage of pandering to Mexican-Americans. Obama realizes that this type of high profile change in policy encourages additional illegal immigration; that's what he wants. Illegal immigrants usually become new Democrat voters.

The only difference is in semantics. So if that qualifies as "a big difference", then oh well.Your dumb ass is wrong, Doofus. The video is from March 2011 where Odumbo said: “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.”
Notice my dumb ass did no such thing. Your quote came from the video i linked to in post #81.

The other video is a video from 9/28/11 and has the politico quote. Or, should i say, has the politico partial quote.
The Politico article is dated September 2011, where Odumbo said:
“This notion that somehow I can just change the laws unilaterally is not true,” Obama told Hispanic journalists at an “Open for Questions” White House roundtable. “The fact of the matter is there are laws on the books I have to enforce.”
sheesh ... are you specific challenged or what?The issue is whether or not they acted illegally. That's why you have to be specific. Using executive orders for immigration purposes is not necessarily illegal. It depends on exactly what they did. I assume, since your not willing to provide details, that you've got nothing, as usual.
ok, I'll go s ..... l ..... o ..... w
