Stealth Amnesty is here, thanks to the Obama Regime. – Tea Party Nation.

Friday is the typical day the regime dumps out news they really don’t want people to pay attention to.  This past Friday was no different.  The Obama regime quietly announced a stealth “quasi-amnesty.”

According to the Daily Caller:

 President Barack Obama’s administration is quietly offering a quasi-amnesty for hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, while aiming to win reelection by mobilizing a wave of new Hispanic voters, say supporters of stronger immigration law enforcement.

The new rules were quietly announced Friday with a new memo from top officials at the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. The “prosecutorial discretion” memo says officials need not enforce immigration laws if illegal immigrants are enrolled in an education center or if their relatives have volunteered for the US military.

“They’re pushing the [immigration] agents to be even more lax, to go further in not enforcing the law,” said Kris Kobach, Kansas’ secretary of state. “At a time when millions of Americans are unemployed and looking for work, this is more bad news coming from the Obama administration… [if the administration] really cared about putting Americans back to work, it would be vigorously enforcing the law,” said Kobach, who has helped legislators in several states draft local immigration-related laws.

Great.  Illegals can come here, break the law and unless they are arrested for major crimes, the Obama regime is going to look the other way.   Is it reasonable to ask the regime to protect Americans?  Should we not have a right to decide that we do not want criminals in this country? Of course, the Obama regime says nothing about our southern border which as of now might as well not exist.
