The Presidents job is to protect the Constitution, if Congress fails at protecting it, its the Executives job.

Its in his oath of office.

Negative Ghostrider!

You've drunk way tooo much koolaid if you believe what you've just stated.

Whats the negative?

Thats how it works.

We are being invaded, Congress is not acting and the president it.

I am 100% for this lawsuit, if the GOP wins, it will be de facto amnesty anyway.

Rich10 answered if for me.

The presidential oath........"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

It's not one or the other...it's all of the above.....'preserve, protect and defend'.  Executive Orders and/or Executive Memos are one piece of a presidents' powers; however, a president can issue a EO/EM that could be against the Constitution/Law.

What about this lawsuit are you 100% for? Possibly giving the Repubs a black eye?  What do you mean by  'de facto amnesty'?  Not sure I understand that.

Wolfie;

AGREED: We ARE being invaded and the president IS doing something about it  -  HELPING THE INVADERS!!

My tactical trainer was with the U.S. Border Patrol for many years - got out after our Islamic president's first term in his regime.  The stories I have heard are truly incredible.  Swears they are true.

Ask your border patrol friend why the GOP did not lock down the borders after 911.

I still haven't figured out what you mean by the border being open after 9/11.

On the flip side, Obama has been telling agencies to ignore federal law.  He has hurt national security in more ways  than any other president.

The borders are more secure under Obama than Bush.

No one complained when Bush did nothing.

The complainers, those that live in GOP states have no problem with their governments not requiring E Verify.

Numbers? Like deportation numbers?  That's different from saying secure border, but, ok- http://www.newrepublic.com/article/117412/deportations-under-obama-vs-bush-who-deported-more-immigrants

How many tens of thousands has he let walk through in the last year?  He literally invited illegals in.

The left is increasingly angry with President Obama, calling him the "deporter-in-chief." That's because the total number of deportations during Obama's tenure recently passed 2 million. As Dara Lind wrote last week at Vox, that pace puts him on track to "have deported more people by the end of 2014 than George W. Bush did in his entire eight years." 

Keep reading.

Obama, like Hilary, can only complain about the past and have no actions of their own to point to.
