Megyn Kelly admits executive action does not constitute "amnesty"

Fox News host Megyn Kelly undermined months of claims from her network peers when she admitted to guest Jennice Fuentes that President Obama's upcoming executive action does not constitute "amnesty." Kelly, who has herself used the "amnesty" label to discuss the president's coming order, acknowledged that the term is a dog whistle conservative media have exploited to stoke opposition to immigration reform.

Obama is set to announce a new set of executive actions that will allow as many as 5 million undocumented immigrants to apply for protection from deportation based on the time they have been in the U.S. and their family ties.

On the November 19 edition of The Kelly File, Kelly acknowledged that the president is not actually pursuing "amnesty," because "amnesty is citizenship and that's not what [Obama] is talking about." Kelly also explained how conservatives purposely misuse the word "amnesty" for political gain: "That's a hot-button term that the right uses to sort of get people upset."

For months, Fox has labeled the president's plan amnesty. On November 13, Fox host Bill O'Reilly said Obama's executive action "is essentially an amnesty for millions of people." Earlier in the month, Fox host Sean Hannity said that "immigration law does not allow for the amnesty that the president wants to grant." In early August, Fox co-host Jedediah Bila called Obama's plan "executive amnesty to millions of people."

Fox might start using the term a little less often, but don't expect them to acknowledge their previous lies.
 


Jonathan Turley, a lib, and someone who DOES CARE about the constitution does not share your dimestore analysis.

If you pricks would quick sucking the dick of your Obama blow up dolls....you might get some air and realize just what a pathetic excuse of an Affirmative Action Experiment you've pushed on America.

If it looks like a duck..............................................

am·nes·ty
noun\ˈam-nə-stē\
: a decision that a group of people will not be punished or that a group of prisoners will be allowed to go free

Several million people who broke the law will not be punished by executive decree. If it isn't amnesty, someone better change the meaning of the word.

Shut the fuck up - hypocrite
 
It is not (by legal definition) Amnesty. It IS, however an abuse of prosecutorial discretion. THAT will cost him with the Supremes and will most likely get his EO thrown out. He purposefully set out to circumvent the law by excusing MILLIONS of illegals from deportation - not just a few. In effect, he has, through EO violated the law set forth by Congress.

This is what these Nazis do - they parse the law to suit their immediate needs. Just like Obamacare - this is no different. It's according to what the definition of "is" is.....and these jack booted assholes have been doing it ever since.

"The first thing we do," said the character in Shakespeare's Henry VI," is kill all the lawyers".
 
Poor dear Obots. You know they are worried when they bring in Fox news to defend their dear Leader. Do they care about the Grubers and OscamCare? Do they care they and all of us, were LIED to when that was passed ONTO OUR BACKS? Do they Care what these new rules on Illegal Immigrants by the Dictator Obama will do to US AND OUR country? . Naaaa, all they care about is covering Obama's ass

It really is scary with these nazis - that they would follow this Emperor right off the cliff and to the bottom of the trash heap of history





See any difference?
 
Trolls are funny creatures.

Yesterday Fox was a non credible source. Today they said something the dicks liked so for the moment they are credible.

News flash:
Most of us don't give a fuck what ANY given anchor thinks personally, we just want the latest headlines. And those can not be heard from any left leaning channel.
