Immigration action illegal

It is so sad that the News-Register editorial board wrote the editorial titled “President produces a reasonable response” — sad because you demonstrate that you don’t know or care that the president has created a constitutional crisis with his unlawful executive order regarding illegal immigrants. Executive orders are administrative tools for the functioning of the executive branch, not a license for the president to decree law. With very little research you can find Obama saying the same thing in the past. It is true that other presidents have abused the executive privilege, but none to this extent.

For the record, Article I of the Constitution gives Congress, not the president, the power to “establish a uniform rule of naturalization.”

Your sympathies are all with the illegal immigrants who flout the rule of law that made this country a place where they want to come. Why not consider all the people who want to come here who are spending thousands of dollars, waiting in line and trying to respect our rule of law to come here legally? Obama has just shown those people the finger.
