It’s utterly pathetic (and infuriating) that Republicans in the House have refused to even allow a freakin’ VOTE on the bipartisan Senate comprehensive immigration reform bill. If they HAD allowed a vote, it would have passed a long time ago. But noooo. Also keep in mind that most previous presidents, including the sainted Ronald Reagan, have issued executive orders on immigration, so there’s a lot of precedent for this (but you didn’t hear Republicans scream about Reagan, Bush, etc.). Finally, it’s long past time for somebody to address this issue, and I strongly support President Obama doing so, obviously within the bounds of his executive authority.
