Supporters of the DREAM Act will undoubtedly try to revive it in some form — if the Obama administration doesn’t just use humanitarian parole to impose it by administrative fiat. But it really is a big setback for amnesty supporters that they couldn’t ram this bill — with many sympathetic beneficiaries and difficult-to-explan technical flaws — through the lame-duck session. The next Congress will be even less amenable to these kinds of proposals. It really shows how little desire there is for amnesty among a majority of Americans.

It is time to seal the borders, cut off the handouts and freebies to illegals, enforce e-verify and eliminate voter fraud in this country. Are you listening 112th congress?
You have been elected and sent to Washington for a reason (multiple reasons actually.) So let's see a clear indications that "You Get It"!

The six sell out RINOs that voted for repeal of DADT will vote for the Dream Act in a reincarnated version. They need better cover, but they will be yes votes.

Of course there's no way the President can impose this by "fiat." But something tells me if the GOP wins back the White House and lacks a filibuster proof Senate majority, the author and his ilk wouldn't have too much of a problem with President Romney using "fiat" to "ram through" a conservative agenda. Although I somehow doubt the terminology would be the same in that case. Merely a hunch.
