As Twitchy reported earlier, The Obama administration announced that it would be providing even more illegal alien deportation waivers. Michelle Malkin correctly called it “Occupy Open Borders.

Obama: slow-jamming economy, fast-jamming amnesty.

Remember when the left HATED the imperial presidency when Bush was in office. Now with Obama #illegals move, they are thrilled.

With the Presidency getting stronger every day, hope you progressives are looking forward to Lord Protector Romney

Of course, he’s never on time. Priorities!

Pres Obama still at lunch with contest winners – delaying his 115pm immigration policy statement inhe Rose Garden.

— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) June 15, 2012

Usually I just write Obama's tardiness into the schedule, but he's not the only one speaking today & there's a call to get to #15minuteslate

— Bridget Johnson (@Bridget_PJM) June 15, 2012

Twitchy will monitor President Obama’s appearance and update with live reports.

Still waiting.

Obama is 20 minutes late. If this were a date, I'd probably be about ready to peace out.

Squee! from Wolf Blitzer.

We're only minutes away from @BarackObama in White House Rose Garden on immigration change. I'm anchoring @CNN coverage now.

— Wolf Blitzer (@wolfblitzer) June 15, 2012

The president is super considerate.

RT @tobyharnden: Obama more than 40 minutes late for his statement. At what point do cable networks stop hanging on for him?

Update: He deigns to grace us all with his presence.

With no apology for being nearly an hour late, Obama starts right into his comments on immigration

Sigh. Orrin Hatch.

Lapdog media alert!

Obama in Rose Garden now to announce new immigration policy permitting some young people to remain without threat of deportation

— Kelly O'Donnell (@KellyO) June 15, 2012

Cue the scary music again.

“Effective immediately, the Department of Homeland Security is taking steps to lift the shadow of deportation from these young people.”

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) June 15, 2012

Shadow of deportation. Is that like those “shadowy groups” to whom the President is always referring?

POTUS is scaring me. I'm pretty sure I'm from the U.S.

— Sam Youngman (@samyoungman) June 15, 2012

And the tiny violins.

Obama: "Imagine you've done everything right your whole life…" And then some hack politician gives citizenship away.

— John Hayward (@Doc_0) June 15, 2012

"For all intents and purposes are Americans." Citizenship is garbage written on toilet paper to this President.

— John Hayward (@Doc_0) June 15, 2012

Bingo.

Birds are stealing President Obama’s vote-grabbing thunder.

SHUT UP BIRDS! you're distracting me

— Sam Stein (@samsteinhp) June 15, 2012

The birds like the speech. Pretty soon they're going to fly over and dress him for the Royal Ball.

— John Podhoretz (@jpodhoretz) June 15, 2012

More nonsense from The One.

So w/ US economy struggling, Obama announces new high skill immigration proposal? Did i get that right?

— James Pethokoukis (@JimPethokoukis) June 15, 2012

Whatever! Doing just fine! Buy another thingamajig.

Update: Wow!

Reporter interrupting Pres. identified self as Neil Monroe of Daily Caller. He shouted "Is it the right thing to do for American workers."

— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) June 15, 2012

Tucker Carlson confirms to me that @NeilMunroDC of his Web site The Daily Caller was the reporter who interrupted President Obama's remarks.

— Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) June 15, 2012

The consensus:MT @mikememoli: It was @NeilMunroDC //of the web based @TheDailyCaller. Whoever he is, interrupting any Pres is not helpful
