Sound like a liberal, post like a loberal, "Seminar Poster.."

I probably speak for a majority of Americans as I am ambivalent about immigration reform. Illegal immigration does not seem to directly affect me. I do not mean to be disrespectful but this is the type of statement I would expect to hear from a low information voter. Giving citizenship and amnesty to lawbreakers affects EVERYONE- and NOT for the better.

To be blunt- "What different does it make"? If he knew and made no efforts to stop it he has committed a crime. If he is telling us he didn't know when he did he is obstructing justice. If he wasn't told for the purpose of plausibility then those who didn't tell him have committed crimes by hiding evidence of criminal activity. And Obama IS responsible- these people work for him and were appointed by him.

No -they DID tell him. They just don't want to admit that he knew everything. He may not have approved it -but he didn't NEED to. They were doing what he wanted and he approve OF it.

Dan- Only because they were CAUGHT. That's not having a conscience- it CYA

"...bill won't obstruct securing..." You are going to have to do better than that. Straw man argument if ever there was one. The argument is over whether they have the INTENT to secure the border. To date the answer is NO.

Wants should have been "Once"

"First, I think that the reason their talking points strategies are all starting to fall apart is that even in this administration, there is a point beyond which the moral conscience and personal integrity of some cannot be breached. " Don't count on it. This is a typical scandal. Wants the initial one leaks there is no way to stop the rest from coming out. But someone with a conscience? In THIS White House? They may cover their own backside or sabotage a superior to get their promotion -but out of conscience? Not gonna happen.

To do legalization first, with promises of future enforcement -- that's just not going to work," notes one House Republican. Pardon me for my skepticism- but if this is true then THE ENTIRE ARGUMENT IS UTTERLY POINTLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks more to me like someone- i.e. brain dead panic stricken establishment Republicans -of which there are more than enough to pass it coupled with guaranteed Democratic unanimity- wants it

Appeal to John Roberts?
