Such callous and blatant contempt for his duties as our country's chief executive surely is a high crime and, although Hinderaker won't say it, is therefore grounds for impeachment. But, our clowder in Congress is reticent to undertake such a drastic measure against our first black president ... I suppose feeling that this might be taken as institutional racism. In other words, doing what would otherwise be the right thing in the face of a possible devastating media onslaught has effectively tied their hands. Of course, most Democrats in Congress would also vociferously resist such a move purely on political grounds. Self-serving politics too often trumps morality and good judgment.
What therefore to do? Perhaps we might elect as our next POTUS someone who is not a pussy cat about such things ... and who would not only fix this dangerous transgression, but then also cause Congress to condemn Obummer in retrospect ... and add Slick Willie to that list. At least we could then get the history lesson right.
Afterward: It's not just releasing illegal immigrant criminals. The Obummer administration is planning to spring 70,000 more felons without Congress's prison sentencing reform legislation being enacted ... see: Breitbart Article. Do we see an out-of-bounds pattern here?
After Afterward: See also: Daily Caller Revelation.

The next POTUS might get inspired by the 'final solution' tactics of Mirabeau Lamar toward blacks and native americans in the early days of Texas statehood. http://www.texasmonthly.com/the-daily-post/the-problem-with-mirabeau-lamar/
ReplyDeleteI don't get the connection?
DeleteIn 1840, Mirabeau Lamar signed “An Act Concerning Free Persons of Color,” which gave all free blacks then living in Texas two years to get out or face being sold into slavery, and mandating that any free black entering Texas would be enslaved for one year. At the end of that year, if that free person of color could not post bond, they became a slave for life.
ReplyDeleteThen, he Systematically Removed Native Americans From Texas. In one of his first acts in office, Lamar reversed his predecessor Sam Houston’s policy of appeasement toward Native Americans in Texas. Immediately upon taking office Lamar launched his self-described “prosecution of an exterminating war” upon people he described as “tigers and hyenas” and “wild cannibals of the woods.”
Substitute "Mexican" for "Black"
Substitute "Muslim" for "Indian"
More.hackneyed moral equivalency. I think we are talking about illegal immigrants who have been convicted of crimes being released into our society by a man-child president who cares not a twit about his oath of office. Your analogy does not wash. Sorry ...
DeleteDang!
ReplyDeleteWashington Post 2014: "his cumulative numbers since taking office show Obama has removed a total of 1,974,688 people and returned 1,609,055 others. There have been more returns than removals only in FY 2009 and 2010. Moreover, comparing across administrations is not wise given the changes in law and counting procedures."
ReplyDeleteWhose facts you want to believe?
I don't trust any numbers being put out by these bozos anymore. If someone comes to the entry checkpoint in San Diego and customs turns them back it is now counted as a deportation. For the straight skinny go to "http://cis.org"
DeleteIn the numbers quoted above by Washington Post, the distinction of "returned" vs "deported" is clear. You just don't want to accept any figures that show Obama is not as feckless as you would like to believe.
