President
Obama's executive order suspending deportation of illegal immigrants
shows that his legal principles (for lack of a better term since he
seems devoid of any identifiable ones) and ideology suit him better to
head the anarchist Occupy Wall Street movement than to be President of
the United States.
Not long ago he said he lacked the legal authority for this unilateral act because of laws on the books. In one stroke of the pen, however, he showed he's not just a progressive tyrant and lawbreaker, but an anarchist too. He fits with the amorphous, confused, coercive, reactionary and largely lawless ideology of the #Occupy movement.
The inconsistency of his action versus his prior statement indicates that he simply doesn't care how he achieves his agenda. His vision of legal restraints is consistent with the anarchist Occupy philosophy, including, "[t]he refusal to accept the legitimacy of the existing legal order."
Obama's executive order giving amnesty to some people illegally in the United States is not a lawful exercise of Executive discretion. It is not an interpretation of the law, nor is it under-enforcement of law in a manner contemplated by, or consistent with, the Constitution.
