Midknight Review -- new and revised: Federal judge stops Obama's amnesty; what does this mean?

BREAKING at 12:22 a.m. - "Judge halts Obama's immigration action: The president lacks the legal authority to carry out his orders, U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Hanen ruled," by Josh Gerstein: "Obama's latest and boldest attempt to use his executive powers to grant quasi-legal status to illegal immigrants ran into a major road block late Monday as a [Bush-appointed] federal judge in [Brownsville] Texas barred the administration from going forward with plans for a major expansion of that drive. The White House said [in a 2:47 a.m. statement] that the Justice Department will appeal ... [Hanen acted] on a lawsuit brought by 26 states." http://politi.co/1FmIiNk

Editor's notes: The judge made his decision based on a technicality. Something about not following legislative registration rules. Whatever. The fact is he has put into place a barrier to Obama's illegal use of presidential memorandum. The effect of this "slow down," is this: it gives the 23 or more states, opposing his decision, time to get their legal act(s) together as they work to defeat this asinine decision. Keep in mind that Obama, the man who dreamed up the Dream Act and the current amnesty memorandum, is the same man who cannot put together a coherent budget proposal (see a record of his four laughable attempts at writing a coherent budget, here).

Understand that I am not opposed to work permits. I certainly do not we should or can herd 5 million immigrants back to Mexico or wherever. But, that is not to say we should give them tax breaks (child credits), inclusion in ObamaCare, or the right to vote (which is being discussed as I write). It is all these other inclusions that make Obama's decision, "amnesty."

He is not to be trusted with anything he says. There is always a hidden meaning and/or program to anything the man says. Gridlock is fine with me. We have a pathologically scared president, a man you never grew out of his childish idealism, a man not capable of complicated thought, a man who has no clue when it comes to the profundities of life and politics.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
