The Obama Presidency

What's that?

[Yoshi]

Most of TNL probably.

NBC and CBS will not be showing Obama announcing his mistake tonight. I guess hiding it from people might mitigate some of the anger over a hugely unpopular action? I wish I could rationalize that The Big Bang Theory is just more important, and it would be if this idiot weren't spewing about stuff that will negatively impact all Americans.

So what's the problem exactly? It's Dubya's immigration policy with more border control. Obama was the one who ramped up deportations, he didn't need approval of Congress to do that.

[Yoshi]

So now if Bush did it, that makes it right? That didn't work so well with the bail outs.

The only action that matters is securing the damn border. Until that is done correctly, everything else is a mistake.

[Diff-chan]

Do you think it's a "bad idea" because you don't like the policy and think Obama's prior one is better (a citing of you expressing support of his old immigration policies would be awesome in this case) or because he lacks the authority to implement this?

[Yoshi]

Neither. Increasing deportation, as he did before, and any kind of amnesty are both mistakes until the border is well secured, because you're just setting money on fire.

Congress should just not fund whatever he proposes, which is absolutely within their authority, until the first issue is resolved.

[Diff-chan]

How do you secure that giant border? What defines secure? If 5 people get through a year, is that secure? I ask because I am pretty sure that a lot less people are crossing from the Mexican border than they used to. Thanks Obummer.

[Yoshi]

Are you counting those that he flew in?

I believe the decision was likely a business decision and not necessarily a political one.
