But of course, crossing the border is just a simple crime, yet if I cross into mexico illegally I could spend 6 months to 2 years plus a fine and the bad water. Anyone who doesn't pay taxes, takes jobs and is a burden on the country is more than a jaywalker.

We can't afford to throw everyone out because they'll come back but Obama must enforce all laws on the books or face impeachment.....he's been warned in the past. This move is purely about votes.

With the debt ceiling issue, Obama said we can't bypass congress. Depends on the issue, that's the liberal way.......what can I get for violating principle, the people and the country.

- Cecilia Munoz, the White House director of intergovernmental affairs, compared the federal crime of being in the country illegally to jaywalking.

"If you were running the police department of any urban area in this country, you would spend more resources going after serious criminals than after jaywalkers. DHS (the Department of Homeland Security) is doing the immigration equivalent of the same thing," Munoz told the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) conference on Monday.

Munoz was referring to the administration's new policy of "prosecutorial discretion," outlined in a June memo from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, which falls under DHS.

Under the new policy, immigration officials will prioritize deportation orders, acting only on those involving people convicted of serious crimes or those who pose a national security or public safety threat.

The memo also directs ICE agents to consider how long an individual has been in the U.S., whether that person has a spouse or children who are U.S. citizens, and whether that person has a serious criminal record. Crimes victims, witnesses to crimes, or people who are charged with minor traffic violations, would avoid deportation under the ICE guidance

Gutierrez: 'I Want to Thank' Obama for Bypassing Congress to Cancel Deportation of Illegals

Title 8 Section 1325 of the U.S. Code makes it a federal crime to be in the United States illegally. Nevertheless, the Obama administration in August directed federal immigration officials to use "prosecutorial discretion" in deciding which illegal aliens to detain and deport.

“We had a president of the United States that recently was speaking at National Council of La Raza who said during his speech, ‘There are those who simply wish me to bypass Congress when it comes to immigration,’ and many in the audience clapped, saying, ‘Yup, bypass Congress…’” Gutierrez told the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) conference on Monday.

“He (Obama) said, ‘But I can’t bypass Congress,’ and people in the audience said, ‘Yes you can,’ and you want to know something? They were right -- he could and he did, and I want to thank the President of the United States, and I want to thank all of those that work at the White House for issuing new guidance when it comes to deportations,” Gutierrez added.

There is a singular notion among many Americans (granted, usually liberals) that people may simply do as they please when it comes to entering the US.

you all have heard of the outbreak of listeria in cantalope here in Colorado.

well it seems that the FDA has been able to trace those cantalopes to just one particular area of the state.. now consider that these cantalopes have been distributed to 6 states and we were able to track their movements.

how come we can track and know where cantalopes are, but we cannot track 12 to 20 million people and deal with them according to law?

GOP mulling change in immigration stance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10,`12 (UPI) -- Republicans are reconsidering immigration policy in light of the role Latino voters played in re-electing U.S. President Barack Obama, political analysts said.


Latinos favored Obama over Republican nominee Mitt Romney by 40 percent, and many within the GOP are reconsidering their tough stance on touchy issues such as amnesty, The Hill reported Saturday. Right-wing talk show host Sean Hannity said Thursday he had evolved on the issue, while House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said the party was "long overdue" in developing a "comprehensive approach."

Washington Post columnist and Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer wrote Friday that Republicans must consider "full legal normalization (just short of citizenship) in return for full border enforcement." Some Republicans aren't convinced that change is needed, The Hill said. Rush Limbaugh argued on his radio talk show Friday that Hispanics were moving to the Democratic Party because of its positions on taxes and welfare, not immigration.

Rep. John Fleming, R-La, Friday chastised Boehner for "getting ahead" of House Republicans on immigration. Fleming said there had been "zero discussion" on the issue. Republican inaction on immigration reform is "unsustainable," said Al Cardenas, president of the American Conservation Union. "Conservatives cannot advocate the status quo," he said. "It's indefensible."

Because the cantelopes have ID tags on them.


Illegals don't need them
