New DHS rules cancel deportations

The Homeland Security Department said Thursday it will halt deportation proceedings on a case-by-case basis against illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria such as attending school, having family in the military or are primarily responsible for other family members’ care.

The move, announced in letters to Congress, won immediate praise from Hispanic activists and Democrats who had chided President Obama for months for the pace of deportations and had argued he had authority to exempt broad swaths of illegal immigrants from deportation.

“Today’s announcement shows that this president is willing to put muscle behind his words and to use his power to intervene when the lives of good people are being ruined by bad laws,” said Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez, Illinois Democrat.

No, it's more like good laws are being ruined by bad people like rep gutierrez who seems to have more of an interest in the rights of illegal aliens than he does for the rights of legal U.S. Citizens.

The chief law enforcement officer in the nation is not enforcing the nation's laws. Isn't this an impeachable offense?

If we hadn't been living in Bizzarro World for the last 2-1/2 years, it would be.

Can this please be put on the front page so everyone can see it?  I came here to post this.  My blood is boiling, and I truly think this gives rise to bring articles of impeachment.  I'm so angry that I need to regroup and revisit this later.
