We have waited 511 days. and here we are today. This evening. President Obama is going to announce an Executive order to address immigration. He has waited patiently. and America has waited patiently for the Republicans in the House of Representatives to step forward and accept this responsibility. but they have refused. They have refused to fix this broken immigration system. and you can bet as soon as the President issues his Executive order. there will be a chorus of complaints that this President has gone too far by using his Executive authority to address this issue. You wont hear the facts from the critics. You wont hear from the critics that every President since Dwight David EisenhowerI believe 11 different Democrats and Republicanshave issued Executive orders relating to immigration. President George Herbert Walker Bush basically saidby Executive orderthat we are not going to prosecute 1.5 million undocumented immigrants in America. He used his prosecutorial discretion. That is the kind of thing which we have come to expect from Presidents. and we expect Congress to complain about it.
