ORIGINAL: truckinslave Much has been written about the potential illegality of some of the provisions of the imminent EO. Most of what I've read involves discussion of Constitutionality in a somewhat theoretical sense. I have a much narrower question. Let us assume that Ebobama is indeed going to tell the requisite feds to issue green cards to illegal immigrants who meet criteria x, y and z. That's because the law, as currently written, requires recipients of green cards to meet criteria a, b and c. My question is simple: how can the green cards issued thusly be legal? The same way it was legal for Reagan, Bush I and II to do the same. How come it was perfectly legal and fine for a white republican President to do something but completely illegal and unconstitutional for a scary brown Democratic President to do the exact same thing? They did it through congress. That's the difference. Nope. They issued EO's exactly like Obama just did. Get your facts straight. They didn't issue EO's to ignore the law, get your facts straight because that is exactly what Obama did. Yes, they did. Get you facts straight. Each EO involved deferred deportations of some group exactly like Obama's. They did so in compliance with the 1986 law, get your facts straight, so they were just wrong, not extra legal. There is also a major difference in magnitude. Reagan delayed deportation of a couple hundred thousand, Obama several million.
