Will the Supreme Court Banish Obama’s Amnesty?

Chief Justice John Roberts may have signaled Monday that the Obama administration could be facing a bitter loss when the Supreme Court rules on the president’s executive amnesty. Roberts, who has disappointed conservatives in recent years with his rulings on gay marriage and Obamacare, appeared critical of the administration’s arguments when the case came before the court this week.

After listening to Solicitor General Donald Verrilli give an impassioned speech about Obama’s presidential authority, Roberts asked, “Could the president grant deferred removal to every unlawfully present alien in the United States right now?”

Verrilli mumbled something about statutory constraints, an answer that would seem to beg the question of where exactly those constraints lie. Because for this president – as Roberts appeared to be thinking – they don’t exist at all.

The heart of the matter before the court is not the constitutionality of Obama’s actions, though, but whether Texas and 25 other states have standing to sue the administration for damages. However, there is plenty of precedent for the Supreme Court to go beyond the scope of a case in order to make a landmark ruling. The chances of that happening here are slim due to the 4-4 split along ideological lines, of course.

Still, Roberts did offer conservatives some hope, characterizing the administration’s program as having put Texas in a “catch-22.” Verrilli said that Texas, which is claiming that producing driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants would be a financial burden, could merely change state law to counter Obama.

“You would sue them instantly,” Roberts said.

Verrilli admitted that was likely so, but he said it was enough that Texas might feasibly be successful in the suit.

Roberts said that if Texas had a choice between a financial burden and being sued by the federal government, it was a pretty clear indication that they had standing to sue.

Immigration activists are watching the case closely, of course, but the media is not quite so pro-Obama as it used to be. Suddenly, several reliably-liberal pundits are out there expressing alarm about the unrestricted power of the president. Gee, if Obama can do this, what would Ted Cruz do in the Oval Office? Maybe we oughta think about limiting executive actions, you guys…

Well, even if it comes from the most cynical of places, it’s always nice to see liberals touch ground with reality once in a while.

I clearly doubt it, because Obama has a real strong hold and he refuses to go down without a fight. It would be totally great if the Supreme Court really did this for us. But i am not Holding my breath!!! I pray that we do Vote in a faithful and trustworthy Leader, that will have our backs, and protect this mighty Nation of America. What do you think!!!!? Will the Supreme Court do it's job and free us from this Invasion? I pray they do.

Islam has NO respect for anything but Islam, PNV69, and "BHB" is in the process of the final [futile] Islamic take-over of our free-market Western civilization. "I want to use America's free market culture AGAINST itself to usher in Islam" [Valerie Jarrett, un-vetted "devout" Shiite Muslim (communist, 12er?), from Iran, and Senior Presidential Advisor to POTUS]. Islam laughs at American "Checks and Balances," our "Law and Order," and our free-market culture, in general; and our entire Western civilization is being quietly and deceptively infiltrated, infested and infected with a 7th century pro-Sharia law group of "strangers," who are being "appointed" to positions of power in our government and education and NGO's, just as took place in every city and country and nation in the Middle-East over the last 15 centuries. 7th century Islam is about to learn a VERY BIG lesson about 21st century hospitality, Western free-market culture, and exactly what happens to those barbarians who will ALWAYS feel hospitality is stupidity. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUMP!!!

Protect our mighty nation? You do understand that this involves children, the majority of whom were raised here, and but a portion of those who are here illegally? What continually amazes me is just who you people think we need to be protected against. Since you are going to pray why not pray for something worth while and pray for the health and well being of these and all children instead of the hope that our supreme court will KICK them out! Christ, why don't you try being a Christian once in a while!

I am very tired of the word Obama, please make him get lost. Everything was fake in his being since 2008.
His accomplishment has been for Muslims. By transporting millions of Muslims including Muslim radicals into the US. That's it. Everything else was for the destruction of this great republic of USA. And the Muslim invasions into the US. I pay so much federal income tax and property taxes to feed and educate these barbarians.
