◼ In a speech of less than 15 minutes, Obama managed to pack a few whoppers into his arguments for unilateral executive action: Fact-checks on Obama speech come from AP, WaPo … and Jay Carney? - HotAir

◼ OUCH: ‘PolitiFact’ Had a Nasty Little Surprise for ‘Emperor Obama’ About His Amnesty Claims - Top Right News
Well our beloved Emperor had a rather rude surprise waiting for him around 10 minutes before he strode to his royal podium for tonight’s proclamation.
That is because the left-leaning fact checking website PolitiFact had awarded Obama a rating of “FALSE” for claims he and his White House staff have made all week — that his position on executive amnesty “has not changed” from portraying it as an unlawful act, to now claiming it is well within his executive authority.
PolitiFact presented a devastating, years-wide exposure of Obama’s lies on this issue that should leave no doubt that this Administration and its ‘Emperor’ cannot be trusted on the issue....
◼ Jay Carney: Obama ‘Literally’ Doing What He Said Was Unconstitutional in 2011 - Washington Free Beacon
◼ Top 10 Obama lies last night - Daniel Horowitz/Conservative Review via Mark Levin
Lie #1: Every President has Taken Executive Action on Immigration...
Lie #2: Illegal Immigrant Crossings are Down...
Lie #3: It does not grant citizenship or the right to stay here permanently...
Lie #4: Only 5 Million: Make no mistake about it. Obama’s illegal amnesty will not just apply to 5 million individuals. It will apply by default to all 12-20 million illegals in the country as well as the millions more who will now come here to enjoy the permanent cessation of borders and sovereignty....
Lie #5: Deport Felons: Obama claims he is going to focus on deporting felons. Yet, he has done the opposite....
Lie #6: Don’t deport families: Obama is playing the family card. It works like this: people are encouraged to come here illegally, Obama grants them amnesty, then their relatives all get to come, even though they would otherwise be ineligible under public charge laws. Yet, at the same time, because the bureaucracy will be flooded with applications of illegals, and those are the applications that will be prioritized, those families who came here legally will have to wait longer to be united. There is no longer an incentive to enter the legal immigration process.
Lie #7: They have to pay taxes to stay...
Lie #8: Background Checks: Just the thought of a criminal background check of people coming from the third world on a lawless program is a joke. But the reality is that Obama has already done this with DACA, and 99.5% of applications were approved, including those of criminals.
Lie #9: Cracking Down on Illegal Immigration at the Border...
Lie #10: Scripture tells us, we shall not oppress a stranger: It’s great to see him quoting the Bible for once, but nice try....
Strange, Obama didn’t mention THIS IMPORTANT FACTOID last night
