Immigration agents sue in name of law

Right! Presidents are supposed to execute the law, not make their own.
Wrong! When the President tells you to do something, that ought to be enough for you! Besides, let the DREAMers stay!

It's all about the DREAM Act, of course. Congress wouldn't pass it. So BHO decided that he would put it into effect anyway. And Janet Napolitano (pictured) got out a memo saying how she wanted it done.

Three weeks ago, an ICE agent said, "No. I won't do this." So they threatened him with suspension and firing.

Now ten ICE agents are suing their own agency, and naming Napolitano and their immediate boss, John Morton, as defendants. They cite the President's contitutional duty to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed."

What say you? Did they do right? Wrong?

    DHS, like the rest of this pathetic administration, (including the DOJ) is trying to circumvent the law.
    I don't blame the ICE agents for being sick of being told to do 2 polar opposite things at the same time. Alinsky theory at work....create chaos and fear.
    Meanwhile, Obama was scared of Rubio's plan being tweaked and becoming public so he thought he would scoop the Republican party but hey! Romney chose Ryan.
    I would still like to see Rubio's finished plan.

    This "executive order" to establish "new law" business is not new. Several other leaders have used it. Not many of note were American.

    Good for them and others just like them. They have a thankless job, fighting not only the illegals but also the corrupt supervisors that embezzle millions and put the honest ones in harms way just like Brian Terry. Columbus and Demming NM are ground zero for the operations of the dirty ICE, FBI, ATF. Phoenix and El Paso too.

    Not long ago 7000 Ic agents wrote a letter of no confidence in their leaders, specifically John Morton. Nappy ignored this letter as did most news agencies. I bet there are 6990 more ice agents ready to join suit right behind the brave 10.

    Most of Obama's annointees are embarrassing, problems with ethics, failure to pay taxes, "golden parachute" men from F & F and Goldman, Citi, Chase etc.
    Of course the topper is their go to man for economic recovery, health care and the billions in waste know as the stimulus, John Corzine, who is skating by without being arrested for his Ponzi scheme! obama john corzine obama john corzine

    They swore an oath to serve, protect and uphold the laws of this nation. It's about time Obama and his commie buddies got some pushback. Of course, as long as Holder is head of the DOJ, nothing will come of it. Obama and Soros knew what they were doing when they chose Holder.

    They have a valid point as they swear to uphold the constitution and the laws of the land. No one should be above the law or just ignore it. As a jury foreman on a murder case I had to explain it to two liberal jurors who thought the law was too strict. I told them our job was to apply the law to the fact of the case and if they wanted to change the law call their congressmen. People who work in law enforcement should "enforce the law" period.

    Well, he has done it and is putting it into action!

    I am not saying this as an attack but people do not seem to realize he is doing what he wants. I tell my dad things and he says "they can't do that". Technically that is true, but is not being followed anymore. Things have changed.

    It's only 10 ICE agents are suing? One would think a lot more would be. I believe they did right I hope a heck of a lot more join 'em. Coarse these agents wouldn't have to do this if we had a congress that would doits job rather than kick back and just take their checks and enjoy their benefits they get at our expence...................

    The agents have to file a suit to enforce the laws they took an oath to enforce because 0bie made the laws on the books illegal even though they are legal. V I Lenin would love this; using the law against the law to punish the law to prove a point.

    Hummmmm ... Sounds like trouble in the proletarians' paradise for Comrade 0bama and Janet.

    I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
    The primary duty of the president of the United States is to make sure that all U.S. laws are carried out and that the federal government is run effectively. Although the president may not introduce new legislation - that's the duty of Congress - he does wield veto power over all bills that are approved by the legislature. In addition, the president has the weighty role of commander in chief of the armed forces.

    Both paragraphs are taken from the USA govt. website...Someone needs to show this to the pos in the White house.... I no longer think of him as the potus but as an invader who is intent upon destroying the country..

    Its kind of like having a civilian job,i.e. as long as it is legal, you follow orders or quit. The executive has always had the right of selective enforcement of law. if you don't believe me just check with all living previous presidents.

    Those agents are doing the right thing! Obama has shirked his duties for FAR too long, and he should be held accountable! If Napolitano wants to be a puppet, let her join the circus (Oops! She DID already, she's part of the Obama circus... I mean, "administration"!).

    obama  janet napolitano  immigration fiasco

    If this is how Obama plans to lead the country (IF, by some sad twist of fate, he manages to win the election), by implementing his own ideologies instead of enforcing the LAW, then we are ALL headed for times FAR harder than what we've seen so far!

    There's only one real reason Obama is doing this... VOTES.
