Well, today is turning out to be a Great Day..not only is it the USMC’s Birthday, but it also the day when one of the most grievous and totalitarian Executive Actions in the history of the Presidential Office, the “Immigration Amnesty Act” has been shot down by the courts.
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling on Monday evening effectively putting a halt to President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty program. Texas and 26 other states joined in the lawsuit to block the Administration’s illegal action.
The Court ruled the lower court did not err in granting a temporary injunction blocking President Obama’s executive amnesty program. Federal Judge Andrew Hanen previously issued a temporary injunction stopping the president’s actions, as reported by Breitbart Texas.
“The court’s decision is a vindication for the Rule of Law and the Constitution,” said Texas Governor Abbott in a statement obtained by Breitbart Texas. Abbott initially filed the lawsuit in 2014 duing his final months as Texas’ Attorney General. “The President’s job is to enforce the immigration laws, not rewrite them. President Obama should abandon his lawless executive amnesty program and start enforcing the law today.”
Judge Hanen initially wrote: “The ultimate question before the Court is: Do the laws of the United States, including the Constitution, give the Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS) the power to take the action at issue in this case?”

BHO’s ego is insulted. Expect it to go to the Supreme Court for appeal. Supreme Court judges are in the tank for Obama. The gay marriage issue was written and decreed in a judicial edict, as congress made no such law. Congress remained mute and simply alowed it to happen.
BHO believes that he is above the Law.
