I got stopped by the immigration man he said he doesn't know if he can let me in Let me in, immigration man, Can I cross the line and pray I can stay another day?

Let me in, immigration man I won't toe your line today I can't see it anyway. Hey hey There he was with his immigration face giving me a paper chase but the sun was coming 'Cause all at once he looked into my space, and stamped a number over my face, and it sent me running Won't you let me in, immigration man Can I cross the line and pray I can stay another day?

There's several Republican senators and commentators who might have a coronary by the time the night is through, which can only mean that President Obama has issued his long-awaited, shocking-yet-not-at-all surprising executive order on immigration.

In the end, Obama's move will be judged on the three Ps -- policy, politics, and procedure. The policy, of course, is a no-brainer -- keeping families together and seeking a realistic solution to the plight of at least some of the 12 million strivers who are now trapped in legal limbo; the failure of Congress to come together on this has been a political meltdown of epic proportions.

In , Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act and cemented the ties between blacks and the Democratic Party -- but Democrats paid a steep price with the loss of white Southerners. Here, it's all to the upside, with Latinos in line to help Obama's party win presidential elections for decades to come, and the GOP with little to do but play to its ever-shrinking base among the white soon-to-be-minority. Immigration is the football, and Republicans are Charlie Brown The last part is the hard part.
