Roger’s Rules » A ‘Particularly Dangerous Moment’

By Roger Kimball On November 20, 2014

That’s what the liberal law professor Jonathan Turley said ^[1] about the executive order on immigration that Obama is planning to announce. If Obama extends amnesty to the millions of illegal aliens in the country, Turley warned, he would be “tearing at the very fabric of the Constitution.”

Peter Wehner made a similar point. Obama, he writes in Commentary ^[2], is “about to commit an act of Constitutional infamy.”  It is, Wehner says, “a stain that will stay with him.”

Strong words.  But they are echoed on both sides of the aisle across the country. “In a broad test of his executive powers,” AP reported ^[2], “President Barack Obama declared Wednesday he will sidestep Congress and order his own federal action on immigration — in measures that could spare from deportation as many as 5 million people illegally in the U.S. and set up one of the most pitched partisan confrontations of his presidency.”

“Sidestep Congress” and “order his own federal action on immigration.”

Have you got that? “Sidestep Congress” and “order his own federal action on immigration.”

In other words, Barack Obama is just about to underscore his lawlessness and utter disregard for the Constitution by brazenly circumventing the Constitution and the will of the people.
