More importantly. more clearly. no Senator should vote to fund a Presidential policy that violates the law. that violates the Constitution. that distorts the relationship between the Congress. which makes laws. and the President. who is supposed to execute only the laws Congress makes. So that is where we are at this point. The President is not entitled to spend taxpayer money to implement a system of immigration that Congress has rejected. An article in yesterdays Washington Times is further indication of where we are in this world of politics. It was reported that the Department of Homeland Security is spending taxpayer money to set up hotlines for illegal immigrants to call in to with any complaints they may have about immigration law enforcement officers if they think the officers have violated their "rights" under President Obamas Executive amnestynot violating their rights under lawbut the President has told them this and sent out this message to the stakeholder groups. Now who are the stakeholder groups? I suppose they are the activist groups.
