Judge To Janet Napolitano: You Have To Deport Illegal Immigrants
2013-04-25
[WashingtonExaminer] Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano does not have the authority to refuse to enforce laws that require undocumented Democrats to face deportation, according to the federal judge hearing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement union's lawsuit against DHS.

"The court finds that DHS does not have discretion to refuse to initiate removal proceedings [when the law requires it]," U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor said today, per Business Week. O'Connor asked DHS and the ICE union to offer additional arguments before he makes a final ruling on the legality of President B.O.'s "deferred action on childhood arrivals" (DACA) program, which invoked prosecutorial discretion as a means of allowing people to stay in the country if they would have qualified for amnesty under the DREAM Act, which never passed through Congress.

#6  I am sure Gov. Perry would be happy to loan the judge a few Texas Rangers to deal with Big "Miss Piggy" Sis.

#1  Nonsense. The Obama administration is above Congress and the courts. They can choose to enforce or neglect any laws, solely at their own discretion. And if Congress will not comply with Obama's command and pass the laws he wants, he will simply issue executive orders.
/sarcasm, if you haven't figured that out.
