Rush Limbaugh: Barack Obama in 'full panic mode'

Rush Limbaugh on Friday said the Obama administration’s new immigration policy is proof that the president is in “full panic mode” about the upcoming election.

“The regime today told the border agents: ‘If you catch young illegals, let ‘em go and grant ‘em work permits.’ No more deportation of illegal immigrants. They are to be given work permits and they can stay in the country,” Limbaugh said, according to a transcript of his show. “So what this is, is ‘Catch, Release, Vote.’”

The conservative radio host added, “The president is in full panic mode. He’s not keeping his powder dry until the fall.”

The criticism came in response to the Obama administration’s announcement today that it will halt the deportation of undocumented immigrants under the age of 30 who came to the U.S. before the age of 16 and have clean criminal records.

Limbaugh also warned Friday that the new policy would hurt the country’s already weak economic recovery.

“What’s it going to do for those of you trying to get work to learn that 800,000 new illegals are in the job market who will work cheaper than you do?” he said. “And what’s next is home mortgages and student loans. Those are the next two things that are gonna fall. They’ll throw it all up against the wall. You watch.”

He added, “This is what happens, folks, when you have statist, dictatorial types who are in full panic mode. Who needs Congress?”

Said illegals are already here and in the job market.....unless you're speaking of college or high school graduates entering the job market.

This one may stick.....compared to the failures of the war on Catholics, Women, Gays....and Bain Capital.

It's liable to translate into a couple of million votes.

Don't forget.....that movie about killing Bin Laden is coming out before the election.  He'll also get a bump out of that.

Thank God he steps in his crap on a regular basis.

Not sure...O'Bama just may have stepped in it big time...helping illegals stay and take jobs from people here who are looking for jobs...everyone knows he is just pandering for votes and this may not sit well with people still on the fence [whoever they are]..lol

Yep.. so far up in Washington State, my friends COLLEGE daughter has only been able to find one job -- feeding 14 horses on Sunday morning for $20 a week.......  no waitress, McD's or other jobs available... either us old people have them or ... ta da... non-American's... she started looking before school let out for the summer.

This shouldn't help him with unions.

Most of the people who benefit from this are in states that are not up for grabs: California and Texas.  The battleground state of Arizona is decidedly anti-illegals, so it doesn't seem the policy will benefit him there, either.  He is basically usurping his constitutional obligations for Nevada, Colorado and maybe Florida,

I'm basically an open borders guy, but there is a bigger issue at play here.  Namely, wouldn't it be nice if the CITIZENS could decide which federal laws they could abide by and which they could ignore?

Why?  Just as illegals are herded by democrats/liberals to the voting polls, they can be herded by the unions to create more union members and make it easier to unionize more workplaces.  The rank-and-file in most unions are simply too stupid, too ignorant, or too blase to figure out that union management prefers to line its own pockets at their expense.
