It's going to be a long last two years (unless the civil war breaks out). I guess they looked at the poll numbers and decided to wait until they've got nothing to lose.

Abandoning his pledge to act by the end of summer, President Barack Obama has decided to delay any executive action on immigration until after the November congressional elections, White House officials said.

After November, there will be no more elections to hold this president in check. Question is, will he go more moderate in his last two years to help the Democrats and their nominee in 2016, or does he double down on his own plans for delivering fundamental transformation?

At home and abroad, 2014 has delivered quite a roller coaster ride. 2015 may deliver even more in terms of volatility.

That's what they do. When they plan on doing something that the majority won't like, they either delay it until after the people speak, (vote), or they wait until we are busy doing traditional holiday things. Bastards!

It won't matter. The dims are going to get whupped come November. The La Raza race-based poverty pimps will not want to show up to elect people they think stabbed them in the back, but that will have a slightly smaller effect than energizing ALL of real America to turn out in droves, to repudiate obungler.

Problem is that voting in an "R" versus a "D" matters not at all. DC is the worlds' biggest whore-house; no matter what clothes they wear, you know what they are.

OBarmy is begining to realize that he can leave it to the Repulicans to do it for him after November and can avoid the approbation.

Republicans are dumb enogh to play along ...

Then in 2016 the cry will be: "Look what the Republicans did - VOte Hilliary!"

My prediction is this guy goes full totalitarian with nothing holding him back. He is only concerned with the 2014 election, sort of, because that can harm him. But the 2016 election won't be in the Obama calculus. What exactly happens has yet to be determined in detail but I expect it will be the worst 2 years of his presidency and maybe the worst 2 years ever in our Republic. Civil war may be in the cards, _their_ cards.
