You all seem to be really happy and excited about it, but I, for one, do not understand your glee....I am truly stumped.

Please...enlighten me.
There are about a million young immigrants unknowingly brought here illegally by parents, who qualify under the rigorous standards in the Executive Order. So, by definition they tend to be productive, responsible contributors with good potential to contribute more in the future. The President has challenged them to do just that, with the possibility remaining here on two year renewals, but with no promise of eventual citizenship, Most congressmen understand the wisdom of suspending the priority of deporting them, while concentrating more on finding and deporting those who have willfully broken our laws. Of course Congress cannot agree on anything, so even Republicans, including Romney, cannot find substantial fault with the President's 'pre-emptive' action. What many people do not know is that more illegal immigrants have already been deported during the incomplete Obama administration than during any previous Presidency.

To me, this is just the sensible, 'right' thing to do. And it's the kind of thing this President is repeatedly doing, despite endless criticism from vocal minorities.
