With 68% of Aemricans supporting building a border fence, illegal alien amnesty even less popular than cap-and-trade (even when disguised as “comprehensive immigration reform”), and an overwhelming majority of Americans siding with Arizona’s new border enforcement law and against the Obama administration, you would think that Democrats would be scrambling to get on the same side of the issue as voters, or at least doing their best to ignore, so as not to be slaughtered come November.
You’d be wrong.
Instead, the Obama Administration has decided to an end-run around that whole pesky “consent of the governed” issue to have Immigration Services implement an amnesty without congressional approval.
Combined with the Democrat’s perpetual efforts to give voting rights to felons, it reminds me of that old Stalin-era joke: “The government has lost faith in the citizens, and has reluctantly decided that it must elect a new people.”
